I would give someone else the task of making me a professional artist in 2 years, or else they would die.

> become a professional artist in 2 years or die

If I had to get gud fast... and this question is asked several times a week on this board... and not in the Questions General thread, of course not... how would I do it?

You should contact your local Mortuary services in advance. Or ask in the Questions General thread. Your choice.

I would grow up and not have the mentality of a 16 year old

>>3058976
I do that with everything I pick up. "By the time I get good I'll be [insert age]"

But that time comes whether or not you start, and if you don't start you'll end up thinking "damn, I'm not that old, i should have started."

Like me 5 years ago with drawing. If I hadn't given up i'd be gud right now. Now it'll take me an extra few years.

>>3058976

Yeah, not sure about you but I keep trying to excuse myself away like you did and my hobbies never changed, I just added more.


I absolutely hate myself for having wasted time, if I were you I would just do it.

Well I'm at the point where I am in my middle thirties, and I can say that my interests haven't actually changed all that much. But if your interests do change I would say not to worry, as you will just find other things to draw.

It did not do well.
Final verdict pass or ass
Sakura Foam is a pass.
Magic rub is absolute ass and definitely not a buy

I dont see the hard part.

Thank you anon,

In photoshop it's easier but in illustrator everything becomes flooded with clipping masks

The top one is two guns put together and custom 15 round clip made by worker campany. Rmovable barrel stock, cos fuel tank and knife. the pistol was a two barrel but I modded the first barrel and removed the bottom one. Then sealed the hole with apoxy and cosmetics, so I sacrificed capacity for power mod and focused airflow mod but it only added about 10 feet of range. The third one is just cosmetics, non removable barrel.

I'll draw with you, anon

>>3060202
If you watch the "Making Of" videos for LWA Yoshinari shits all over his animators for making poses and movements that aren't fluid enough though.

>>3060202
good observation op
i don't think you have to animate, but think about how to apply that principle to your practice.
personally, i find it helpful to do figure drawings with a video as a reference. i pause at different times and draw the pose, and observe how it moves from one position to another.
i like doing that compared to drawing a bunch of totally different poses

>>3060262
post work.

>And I don't fuck with you

Like you fuck anyone.

Yeah? Post your 4pt perspective work then, pussy.

who cares about this shit, the reality is you have to know the basics to stay in the game. If you are autistic, its a different story.

Rendering is where its at

God dammit it doesn't show up as sideways in the upload preview even what the frickin' freakin' balls is wrong with this website

ms paint if you know how to use it
more professionally for drawing/animating:
- photoshop is great
- I mostly use clip paint studio pro which is pretty cheap, you can animate with that but it's super limited and way better for just drawing
- opentoonz is free animation software
- firealpaca is free but I personally wasn't fond of it. worth trying out though. you can apparently make GIF animations in that too but I haven't tried it

>>3060960
Rad, man, thanks! Ill check out opentoonz first. I'm not that good yet, but practice makes decent, yeah?

>>3060969
opentoonz is probably the best animation program i've worked with, but I have VERY little experience in animation so there are a lot of people who could give better examples and reviews than i can lol
Good luck with finding a good program you like!
Medibang paint is another free program for drawing. I've never tried it on computer but they also have a mobile app that I used and liked.

Im getting into painting myself, still in my first tubes of windsor and newton myself. I like thick oils and paint wet on wet, and these slightly more expensive paints feel so much better than the cheap thinner oils I got to start.

>>3059662
Cheapest? go to blick.com and find them.

You answered your own questions. Cheap paint will have bad color, will separate, and will be hard to work with.

You don't need 75ml tubes unless you're doing huge canvases, and wasting paint. The small tubes are fine for traditional techniques on smaller boards, like 8x10. Cost? Depends on the brand and the pigments - ultramarine, the real stuff, will always be expensive because they have to crush a gemstone, lapis lazuli, to make it. Cheapest painting surface? Cardboard, with gesso. If you're scraping canvases, then who cares? Use cardboard. As long as it's flat, and on gesso, it's all the same. You're not keeping the paintings anyway. Another source is going to Goodwill and junk shops, and buying shitty framed are, and gessoing over them. You even get a frame with it.
If you're learning to paint, you don't need more than this:
http://www.dickblick.com/items/00418-1129/
Again, you don't need 75ml tubes, for traditional painting, except maybe white, and that should last you years. You should be using more than a dime sized blob of paint at a time, for a average sized panel, like 8x10, and you only need a handful of colors, and be learning to mix the rest with them. Larger tubes like 75ml last me years, in oils.

Art supply shop worker here.

For Oil I'd recommend either Gamblin 1980 or Winsor Newton Winton. They're both student lines but as far as student paints go they're pretty high quality. I know alot of professionals use them for underpainting or just use them if they're cheap bastards.

For acrylic I'd say try Amsterdam. Again, they're student grade but they're not awful and they make a ton of colors so you don't have to do a lot of mixing which isn't good on lower end paints.

For surface, Burch panels with gesso are sturdy and cheap but can warp. Fredrix makes a line of canvas sheet pads that are pretty nice.

Don't use Georgian, don't use anything Sargent, and don't use Daler Rowney system 3.

Also avoid shopping at Dick Blick if you can. They're a garbage company with a shit head CEO and literally every other art supply company hates them. They're on Walmart level.

Use 3D models (like design doll) and trace over them. In the modern age, there's no need to learn the fundamentals when you have increasingly advanced technology at your disposal.

oh my fucking god. do not listen to this retarded half-brained ape. Jesus christ dude that is the worst advice I've ever heard. This has to be fucking b8.

You might "trace" your way to dollar billz, but you won't "trace" your way to being a good artist.

Jesus fuck don't go on /ic/ just to give horrible advice to the younglings you cunt
