>touted by art instructors as the greatest, most thorough, and most accurate anatomy book ever written>nobody on /ic/ uses itwhy?
>>7158699>toutedmeans>marketedand we bought it! Can you say "you're welcome Watson-Guptill books"?Art instructors don't critique their own sources.There's a history of America's art schools and art literature and a lot to say about what I'll call the 'for artists" bubble.This is a poorly written book, that's why so many people on /ic/ have the sense to ignore it in spite of>>7158707being all those things.It begins with "science has nothing to teach the artist concerning...a surface."Comment too long.

back in college (not art-specific) i worked through pretty much the whole book for my life drawing class in rl, the process then had no online associations. was completely local and only my prof ever saw my homework, but i had fun. >forgot the lions’ share though, since i haven’t deep dived on human anatomy in ages.it was a cool book
>>7160507>organswhy would you need the lymphatic system and organs to do figure drawing?
>>7160507Do you have any idea how retarded you sound?
>>7160507>This is a poorly written book, that's why so many people on /ic/ have the sense to ignore it in spite ofYou had me have a look at it again. The (original, not the one edited by Hale) book is just a long series of plates, starting from major bones, going to major muscles groups, and showing how things bump on the surface, in that order.What else would you want from an artistic-anatomy book intended for fine-artists (published in 1890)?The Russians recently edited a pocket reference anatomy book, for when you're in the classroom, in front of a model. It basically contains the same information, presented differently, and augmented with various pictures of sculptures and paintings.Of course, if you want simplified anatomy, for comic and manga, now that's a different beast. That's not what Richer was aiming at though.
Does the quality of the watercolor paper and the quality of the paints matter that much if you're not one of those youtube moms that want to paint flowers?If you look at the youtube hobbyists they all talk about how important it is to use the best paper, the best paint, etc, but then you look at actual good artists like Huston or Frazetta and they're painting on scrapbook paper with mickey mouse watercolor paints.
>>7156569man i really hate watercolor. few people can make it look good, but it's so unforgiving and looks like crap most of the time. and you'll be spending $$$ on paper, just to practice. most of all i hate how you can't layer it.
>>7159532>how you can't layer it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tXxBOKORpkThere are limits, depending on the material and the technique, but layering washes is a common thing.
>>7159532>you can't layer itsee, that's you using the wrong paper
>>7159532>man i really hate watercolor. few people can make it look good, but it's so unforgivingthat's why it's goated. Get gud.PS:>picrel was probably the greatest advice I've ever got, and it's insane he condensed everything into one single page.
>>7156569>Does the quality of the watercolor paper Yes if you want to paint a lot of layers rather than working in a more sketchy style. Also if you use a lot of water, denser paper will buckle less. I would compromise on brushes and paints before paper. Also you at least need acid-free paper if you want your work to survive for a long period of time. >the quality of the paintsMatters less, but will make a difference for bright and strong hues. Don't use bottom-of-the-barrel ones, but decent mid-range ones will do quite well. Personally, I'd just get fewer colours of high quality, but I'm not broke. Again, if you want your wok to survive you at least want relatively lightfast pigments.

Why don't anons talk about this more? Isn't it one of the best ways to "make it"?Less competition as only have your countrymen to compete with, or even just artists in your city. Actually able to charge a fair amount because third worlders can't come over to tattoo your clientsIs a scalable business as you can open studios and hire other artists, has an exit strategy so when you get older the business will be able to run itself kind of like a barbershop. Coomer on patreon will stop earning money the second he drops drawing and be irrelevant, plus no pension etcWon't be under threat from AI unlike digital or concept artist etc, so will always be a need for artists especially in countries where lots of people have tattoos like America and BritainIrl networking with other artists, clients and can maybe get tattooed gf, patreon artist is stuck inside house all day and can only network with other coomers.Can actually be proud of the work you do unlike those forced to draw coom to make a living. Before anons say you don't have to draw coom to make a living. all I see is coom artists making it on patreon or pro concept artists.Some of the points also apply to traditional gallery artists. I think it's come full circle to where trad is again the most viable way to make it as an artist, although you can still do tattoo designs in digital so your skills would carry over.

>>7160307what? no, no, it's not people, those are jews
>>7159645I got some female client who had squirting orgasm from tattooing around her labias . I received squirt juice in my eyes ang got afraid of STD and HIV for 2 weeks. Some punk and alternate scene people are not super clean and depending where you tattoo ( like inside buttcheek or forehead it blead quite some. You also touch people intimate parts sometime and are exposed to STD from touch like herpes. Sometime Tattoo artist need to also know hos to do piercings and manipulating a piercing needle without good gloves is a certain way to get STD.
>>7160316Crabs crabs crabsOnly people afraid of competition are people bad at it, yet trying to make money
>>7159732>>Is a scalable business>No, most of the time not.How does it usually work? Is it like a salon where someone rents their space or are artists usually salaried employees? Is it commission based?
>>7160316(o_O) ...... That's a pretty crazy story anon, I wouldn't tattoo on or near someones vagina, penis, anus.... bewbs is about as far as I'd go, I hate piercings so I'd avoid that risk.Sounds like if I just wear gloves and don't tattoo where you tattoo I'll be ok>>7160286These are cool anon, do you buy clearance meat for practice or do butchers give you bits they would throw away for free?>>7160371from what I was reading the owner rents out the chairs. Depending on shop they charge like 50/50 on artist earnings or they charge a flat rate i.e $1000 per month. Seems like the shop owners earn more if they go 50/50 and if the artist is good and brings in lots of money they seem to negotiate up to 65/35

>have to draw more to get better at drawingThere's really no other way, is there?
>>7160209God I'm the same, cannot draw symmetrical or even imagine what it would be like slightly roated
>>7159912I did not manage to achieve that in 6 months. I can copy things accurately, and I can paint from life, but I'm completely helpless when I attempt to draw from life because the real world has no lines to copy. Nothing really suggests the appearance of lines to me, and I consistently attempt to invent them out of the wrong features. All the resources I've used teach copying drawings and drawing from life as the same skill even though to me it seems like they are completely unrelated, so I'm not sure what I should really even be trying to do.
