I made a series of creepy realistic characters from some shows I like. This is Gunter from Adventure Time.
looks dumb.
This is the Ice King.

Anyone else really conservative with using sketchbooks/art supplies?
I have all these fancy sketchbooks and paints/markers/etc. my family bought me as gifts but I usually stick to computer paper and pencils/ballpoint pens. I kind of feel bad wasting them though.
>tfw you see a bad art tutorial ripping through fancy sketchbook pages like it's nothing
>>2847576
A fancy skecthbook will cost you $15 at most, stop being so cheap.
I'd say it's better to use them for the intended purpose. I used to be really conservative with my sketchbooks and drew small so I wouldn't "waste" it. Just go for it, man. They bought it for you to use
I am this way with watercolor paper and paint. All that shit is so expensive. I am used to digital and having *infinite* paint and paper/undo buttons.
The trade off is originals made traditionally are worth more precisely because of this.
It still holds me back sometimes.
if your just doing pencil stuff you honestly don't even need fancy books. Hammer mill 28lb printer paper will do you great and is 500 sheets for 12 bucks and OOOOO so smooth.
Let me know what you think and any improvements I should make.

why do people shitpost on some of the least populated boards?
What's the technique to draw with that dotty effect?
>>2844650
Try using a sponge
>>2844656
Thanks. What is that exactly called? Google just gives me spongebob drawings.
>>2844659
Stippling? I've never seen it done with a sponge btw.
All my friends tell me I draw like a professional mangaka but I wanted the opinion of you guys...
>>2847738
Considering a professional mangaka can draw in pretty much anyway as long as it looks like anime, looks like they hit right on the point.
Tried drawing again today, guys. Almost killed myself. Guess I'm not gonna make it and talent wasn't a meme after all. I hope all of you will fulfill your dreams
>this cat
How long have you been drawing? Try again thousands of time. As long as your IQ is over 80 you shouldn't worry about talent.
Talent is often just how you think about what you're doing rather than how you actually do it.
Drawing is a mental task, if the way you think about drawing isn't working then you might just need to readjust your mental understanding of the flow in the work.

this is funny do you have a blog?
How do pros draw so much in a single day? I usually lose my train of thought and slow down after a couple of hours.
Pic is me
>>2844338
They're like martial artists. They've trained to be able to paint efficiently, provide the biggest impact and not waste energy. Their minds and bodies are also used to the work through habit. Simply put, experience.
>>2844342
Proceed as usual, then?
>>2844338
I worked 15 hours yesterday.
I've been doing this for a few years now, just curious about anyone's comments for my stuff.
>>2842960
Reminds me of tinybrush.

>anime shit
This is why you're a bad artist
Thanks guys!!
WTF I like Shadman now?
>>2841827
This guy knows how to get attention
I too like Redditman

Like who drew this soldier? and why does /ic/ keep posting it?
>>2847449
because it's good?
I prefer underwater-gate-guardian-wip myself, but I understand why it never took off. Lightning seldom strikes the same artist twice.
>>2847449
like most memes. it was forced. eventually it stuck.
I have some from like 8 years ago dumping
man this brings back memories
Just looking for general tips and ideas on how to use SAI to it's fullest capabilities
>>2844971
paint with marker and pen pressure on density. ignore the shitty water brush and ignore the shitty blending settings, never blend and never set it pen pressure to blend. youre good to go
>>2844971
IF you go into Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features you can uninstall sai and then get photoshop
