I want to do some master studies for facial expressions, but don't really know many good paintings that have interesting faces. Anyone mind helping?

Are rotrings a meme or are they actually good for illustrating? I really wanna get a reliable pen but they looks kinda bulky and are pretty expensive (isograph and rapidograph).
Purisu enlighten me.

>Do you like to draw with crayons? I do, but I'm not very good at it. But it doesn't matter. It's the fun of doing it that's important

Mister Rogers helped create the most self absorbed generation in history with his relentless tolerance.

get the fuck outta here with that weak ass toddler shit

Animation thread, use the catalog. Jesus fucking christ. Did you even look? This isn't fucking Google man. This ain't Bing, and it sure as fuck isn't a bunch of your friends who'll say a shitty drawing like the one in the picture is """"good."""

>>3032112
I looked for stickies before posting, so the bare minimum.

Also, I didn't expect anybody to think that shit drawing was good at all, but thanks for the critique, bud.

>>3032125
Don't mind me, I'm just angry. But in all seriousness check out the animation thread, good resources there. Also, why do you want to animate? Hobby or professional? Give us details so we can help, but do it in that thread.

Dude didn't you make the same post a few months ago?

Get a refund.

>>3020562
bad plan, get a refund or cut your losses and move on
ordering more pages means he'll just keep that money too

>>3020562
Real question is why are you paying someone to draw that shit...

V)Self-actualization needs
Now this is the step that separates good art from great art.
If I look at your art, and ten of my colleagues agree, "Yes, that is art." Great!
but what if nobody ever says anything about your artwork besides "Yes, that is art."
How does that make you feel? Do you feel motivated to do more as an artist? Not really.
You could be the "mechanic that makes art on the side", but generally the great artists stick to one schtick and say all that they create is art. A hobbyist by definition does not make a great artist because generally the great artist puts those extra hours in which we can equate with an increase of quality.

Great artists (are nothing but Great artists) and must make great artworks (and nothing else)
Great art has a little extra something to it, and that comes in form of someone else recognizing your art as something besides "an artwork".
"that is my grandmother" 'this is the most amazing thing I've ever seen"
Great artworks suspend human reasoning, can make you believe something is real etc

You cannot say your own artwork is amazing because you can't suspend your own reasoning because you fucking made it (honestly the mental gymnastics i go through to cover all stupid possible questions)
If you painted a painting, and I hit you on the head and made you forget you painted it,
you still probably wouldn't be amazed by your own artwork unless your own personal taste and personal art output are the same in which case fuck yourself

>>3031947
>Supposing "Anything an artist makes is Art"
stopped reading there

just practice you stupid fuck

>>3031888
Start with smaller practice studies. Copy watercolors that you like. Learn about wet on wet, wet on dry and washes. No one goes out and paints beautiful stuff their first time. Don't stop painting. Practice with purpose and you can't help but improve.

>>3031889
And don't forget to draw. Drawing the the foundation of all visual art.

only saw it after I posted. fixed the gray line

>>3031475
also fixed the thin line on the left and top.

You tell me how it looks. Imagine coming on /ic/ one day and seeing that. What would you reply to the OP with?

>>3030069
John Singer Sargent

>>3030069
I don't think a lot of people on /ic/ can draw in even five different styles in a consistently good manner.

>>3030069
>
Are we just voting on the styles so far, then other people draw themselves in all those different styles, or are we saying what style we are about to draw ourselves in?

Because if we're just naming styles to draw in I could contribute some pretty amazing names.

>>3028756
why not just paint something similar if you like one of em?

>>3028758
Same reason people own artbooks and such I guess, it's just for enjoyment and inspiration. I do occasionally take cues from some of them and use that in my art.

>>3028758
People had the same idea too, ten years later, they're making illustrations for MTG. What a coincidence.
