What do you want to use it for?

>>3007375
just buy yourself one of those wooden dolls for about 20 bucks, saves you money and you don't need electricity for it.

The main thing you're going wrong is not posting this in the question thread

>rather than constructing basic form
>is this wrong?

Yes.

You don't need to make those mannekins or construct from basic shapes or anything, but any rough sketch should always be building form. If you're not building form it's going to look flat.

The thing about the mannekins is they give you a sort of mental shortcut for how to show form. It gets you in the right headspace.

Unless you're intentionally going for a very flat 2d style, you don't ever do something "rather than" showing form. You do something -and- show form.

maybe the lack of loomis did trigger mod's autismo

What do you want to do ?

Can't we keep a white gap arround the triangle ?
It's not so pretty but allows to see it better

>A ruler, sometimes called a rule or line gauge, is an instrument used in geometry, technical drawing, printing, engineering and building to measure distances or to rule straight lines. The ruler is a straightedge which may also contain calibrated lines to measure distances.

Everything Grant Cardone. It's related to sales (technically you're selling things as an artist anyway) but everything about what is said is pure motivation.

The only art related podcast i listen to is the bancroft brothers animation podcast. Its mostly interviews so you wont learn much theory from it.

Unrelated but OP wtf i didnt know that was a job. Why havent you been replaced by dishwasher machines? It sounds like it could kind of comfy though.

>>3026333
nowadays i only pick up bob ross episodes because he isnt tryhard, i ingore all the serious pro advices because those just make drawing not fun

>>3025979
Post something you've produced, the quality of the studio can there be appraised.

>>3025984
Well, I just rearranged it today, so technically nothing yet. I was hoping to start a thread about workspace theory.

>>3025979
It's a bit cramped, but I get that you probably don't have a lot of space.

The only serious issue is your lighting. One LED is not enough. You should have two, at least at a 45 degree angle from each other, and 70-100watts in each (or equivalent in LED). It looks like the one you have isn't strong enough to evenly light the entire canvas, that's a serious issue.

I have two like this on top of my easel, side by side. They don't have to be specifically for art, you can find cheaper. I also have two lights on my drafting board.

It depends on the quality of the work, and I suppose the notoriety and demand of the artist.

>>3025448

It really depends. Some people are happy working for $150, some will ask $30 000 for portrait.

Alright. Thank you.

>>3024552
You mean like in private messages and in comments? I think they'll accept you, but then think you're retarded if you don't say that English is your native language.

>>3024552
Why do you want to pretend to be Japanese?

Pixiv already comes in English. Use that.

>>3024552
>pretending to be japanese
>by using Google fucking Translator

They are probably laugh their asses off behind your back and only talk to you as a joke

who?

I heard he can't into 3pt perspective.

Where's the anon who said Olson was enslaved in some LA basement, working for NMA Jews?

James 3 is literally the last part of the Bible I read....

>>3022345
Oh yeah, bonus points if it's in Manga Studio, CSP, thanks to vectors and the line thinning tool.

>>3022345
Looks like your average clipping mask with hue matched and value dropped about 20%, and a couple bits matched to the spectaculars. Same thing just about everyone uses.

Not the biggest deal to fuss over, as long as your fundamentals are solid you'll be right.

>>3022352
Yeah, how do you use clipping masks. I'm still very confused by that.

>>3021910
Use form theory instead.

>>3021914
Hate to sound like an idiot, but what's the difference?

>>3021910
Better in what what?

More distinct silhouettes? More recognizable designs? More variance while maintaining an aesthetic?

"Shape theory" is just a silly little exercise, I'm not seeing any progress towards a goal, here.

I think this is bait. That's what I think.

GTFO

>>3026081
What about <3 is a bait?

The <3 part

Try LAS >>3022267
Or Unmotivated Losers discord

>>3026047
Not OP but LAS is terrible and doesn't focus on challenges, just on updating any random crap daily for autistic RPG point bullshit. I imagine OP wants something more like the old Crimson Daggers or Conceptart.org challenges..

>>3026116
yes. I've never really looked into conceptart but I've known about crimson dagger through the videos (now offline unfortunately). A long long time ago I used to participate in a somewhat popular european forum and that was a lot of fun. I used to draw for drawthread too but it's very focused on erotic content, too much for my taste
