It's about what size you're comfortable with. You're paying for the WACOM inscription after all, not for the technology.

I've been trying to be able to draw like pic related for 2 years now and im getting nowhere by learning anatomy, gesture etc, all of these only make my art looks like tumblr trash.
Please tell me there is a video tutorial or mentorship program on how achieve this level.
Please /ic/, you've disappointed me so much I just want to draw anime.

I've been in the same boat OP. What I learned is you'll only get gud at whatever you practice - if you only draw gesture, anatomy, and so on, your skill won't automatically translate to anime. Start studying artists you like, break down their work into shape, volume, proportion and draw that while consciously think about this information. Ask yourself questions like 'how many eyes height/width is this face', 'what angle is the jaw', 'how does a real female leg differ from a stylized one'

>>3085236
anime has different proportions. try tracing different styles and seeing the common rations between then. also post some art so we can see how close you are.
use palmie.jp for good anime tutorials.

>>3085236
have you tried actually drawing anime every now and then?

If that's hilldawg on the right then I can appreciate the message that our leaders have conflicting interests and the resulting tensions are inevitable whether you vote left or right.
If that's not and the message is just trump is le bad, Then it's forgettable white noise.

I want to do rigoristic studies in order to improve faster. Does anybody know anything about that?
I am just tired of messing around, I want real gains, but don't worry, I am not a retard who claims that anyone can become a pro in a year. I just want to improve faster, no matter how challenging it is.

How does one get gigs doing comic cover art for companies like BOOM or Dynamite? I would say DC or Marvel, but you have to be pretty damn good to reach that tier.
But in general, how to artists get these gigs? Did artists approach the company, or did the company approach the artist?
In the case of Tyson Hesse, he was already well-known online for his comic Boxer Hockey. I'm curious how he got gigs doing Bravest Warrior or Secret World of Gumball covers for BOOM, if they found him because of his comic, or if he submitted his work to them.

maybe you could find an artist who did a cover, and look up their tumblr and send them a polite ask?
>>
>>3083175
What I'll say is you definitely wont be approached to do work unless you're already established and maybe only if you're specifically established in this area. No one here will outright tell you how to get a career started but it's not that simple as making good work and getting work; there is some luck involved with getting your foot through the door. My only advice is you will have to be outgoing, probably more important than talent to some degree. Write emails, try to meet people IRL if possible. Start with small, attainable goals to start getting some work out there, build a portfolio and work you way up.
>>3083773
This is worth exploring. Any information coming from people with experience is better than what you'll find here. Plus you never know talking to artists may help find a lead for you to explore and get some work out there.

It depends on a lot of things.
Sometimes they art is incredible but they don't see it that way. Some great artists didn't like their art at all, but everyone else did. Some people just don't like what they do so much, or are very critical of what they do.

IF YOU ARE A /BEG/INNER IN ART, please use this thread to post pieces for critique or ask for advice. We should not have to make new threads or post in the Drawthread with our fundamental exercises.
Feel free to post even the smallest exercise you have done to show you are still trying, do not give up, make someone proud.
RESIZE YOUR IMAGES TO ~1000 PIXELS:
#1)
>screenshot the image and post that instead
#2)
>change camera capture settings to something smaller
#3)
>send to computer and resize in MSPaint

There's a new (and cleaner) sticky in town! You can see it at:

TRY TO BE MORE ACTIVE AND GIVE PEOPLE SOME FEEDBACK - many studies are left unreplied, which is a bit sad and can be quite demotivating for the people that try their best to improve, but are left directionless.

This thread is meant for artists who might want to try to make anime works in-between their studies, however, all forms of stylization is welcome here. It is strongly recommended that you use this thread in conjunction with learning the elements and fundamentals of art. You can also discuss the visual elements of various professional artists as well if you keep it relatively articulate and civil.
Submit your drawings, receive feedback or critique others! Share your knowledge and remember to thank those who've critiqued or red-lined your drawings. Most importantly, it's all about having fun!

How do I stop looking at art as a chore? I don't even get paid and yet I still have this feeling whenever I draw that it's something I have to do, and my art suffers because of it.
How do I just relax, /ic/?

I fucking hate that adult coloring books are so popular now. You can't go to a single review for art supplies on Amazon without some peppy shut-in drooling moron gushing about how good they are for coloring books and they always overshadow reviews from actual artists.
