Anyone here know what sites like redbubble, society6 and curioos charge you for selling a print? Which one screws over artists the least? And is the amount you pay as an artist proportional to the price you choose to sell your shit for, or is it an absolute value? Because if I manage to find someone stupid enough to buy my print for 899$ I don't want some jew hand coming out of nowhere and taking 25%.

then why dont you sell them on your own website?

>>2461189
I'm not able to handle print and shipping dummy. That's the whole point of using these sites, no?
>>
I'm currently selling things on all major PoD sites, and would be totally willing to give you some tips on how to start and what's worthwhile. But typing it all out involves me using my "jew hands", which you're totally opposed to for some reason.
So figure it out yourself, bitch.

So is "Loomis" work like this supposed to make you better, because after I finish the torso I did feel like I have improved, is it supposed to be so detailed?

Your drawings feel flat like you didn't fully understand how to construct them.
You should deconstruct objects in life. Then do the reverse when you build your drawing on paper no matter what it is.
Because we should not have to make new threads or post in draw threads 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 your mom proud.
AVOID asking unrelated questions, There is a question thread for that.
Visit the usual "Art book Thread" to find your desired books.
Do not forget to PLEASE RESIZE and crop your images before uploading them. 1kpx is fine.
Before asking "what should I read/view/study/learn," Read the f*cking sticky, it's there for a reason: >>1579290 → →
There's a new sticky in town! You can see it at https://www.reddit.com/comments/46sb9k/
>Thread study: Try to draw/paint the opening or any other following images.
Feel free to post your original works as well if you're trash.
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.

Looking for advice on this, I plan on redoing it. I noticed a lot of my proportions are off, this is one of my first time drawing without a real reference, just a cartoon.

can you really make a living doing art? i have trouble finding the strenght to keep going down the artist path, even though i have already invested a fair bit. i just don't see it having much of a future. i don't want to be poor my entire life, or have to be an absolute outlier in order to make a middle class living.

If money is what you're concerned about, art is not for you. Go be a front-end developer, takes an artful mind and pays well, then do your art on the side.
>>
>>2459700
Of course. People use art in stuff they peddle themselves. If there is demand there will be jobs.
The problem is you won't always do it the way you imagined it when you started on that path. You might end up doing something ,where the art component is just a part of your work. Or doing pr0n. Or making retarded 3D movies on yt. You never know. It's a problem, because it demands that you recognize your current limitations. I can't do complex perspective and composition? My enviroments are poor as shit? Gee, I guess that comic book I always wanted to make will have to wait a decade. Etc.
The good thing about this art/entertainment industry (entertainment is how you should initially approach it, really) stuff is that if you never accept a plateau and always improve (making you somewhat of an exception), go through more books, do more training etc. and never give up you may eventually get semi-rich as your skills become very hard to come by, so the middle class isn't the definitive ceiling, asuming you make it to begin with.
>>
I always wonder why it isn't more artists' goal to just go really hard on working and saving as much money as humanly possible, investing it, and retiring with a self-sufficient income on your investments without needing a salary to make a living.
If you go really hard and have a decent income, and don't waste your cash on frivolous shit, people have retired at 30/40 and lived on their own money generating their income. Then you can do art to supplement your income but not make yourself miserable trying to hold down a job in the industry and make ends meet.

I just finished my first vector illustration. I'm not studying art or something, just bored. I know I'm not good on drawing, so I accept comments to improve.
What do u think about it?

Stop bumping, /ic/ is a slow as fuck board. As for your piece, there is not much to say and I'm going to give it to you straight: it's bad.
The composition is shit, colours are shit, the typesetting is shit, the font is shit, your shapes are shit. If you really want to improve and not just asspats, work on developing a feeling for what is aesthetically pleasing and maybe learn to draw.
Hi, how do you create this effect in Photoshop CC?

Noah Bradley is a wannabe concept artist and illustrator. What he says has nothing to do with the industry OP wants to find work in. Most of the big companies within the animation industry have talent development programs where they give out internships to the top of the class people at Sheridan, CalArts, Gobelins etc. It is virtually impossible to find work at Dreamworks, Disney or Pixar for example without either being an established professional with lots of high profile project under his belt, or going through their talent development program.
As a self-taught artist, you are at a HUGE disadvantage if you want to get into the animation industry.

He's pretty good and is good at articulating his ideas to help you get better and have an understanding of the face, figure drawing, etc.
As always, trying to use just Loomis to improve will end badly.
>>
>>2460731
It's a good place to start for beginners, it teaches construction and basics of the head very well.
In the end you won't be constructing heads like this, you might skip a few steps or even block in to your own whim if you want. But for beginners yeah it's pretty good, it's not just a meme.

I'm getting kind of sick of people putting such a high standard on signing their art. It's a name in cursive, it's really not that big of a deal. Sure, you're suppose to only sign finished works but who honestly gives a fuck? And why would they?
