A lot of adult/hentai artists work with a small buttplug in their rectum. Sounds weird, but apparently it gently stimulates the prostate and increases focus

Smoking cigarettes is a great way to smell bad, waste thousands of dollars a year and destroy your health; it's not good for much else.

You should probably practice instead op (search Dynamic Sketching on youtube). If your hands are still really that shaky after practicing those exercises for several hours every day for 3 months you probably should just learn how to use vectors instead of raster digitally or paint like Pollock instead of Rembrandt

i collect made in germany art utensils because of their rarity and status. I'll do fine with made in timor leste pencils and inks. its your skill that decides if youre a good artist or not

Mars Technicos are what I chose because they're sold everywhere. All the other brands I've seen are only available in specialty art stores.

Staedtler is a reliable brand. Them and Pentel are my two favorites.

I read the Sticky but I'm still confused on what 'starting' means. I want to be a digital artist but the Guide makes no sense. Does it want me to buy some books and do exercises? Or what? I just want to learn how to do Digital Art, not read books.

jesus if you want to make artt just fucking make art it's not some secret process fucking christ

Then don't read books.

Just don't come crying to us when you've been drawing for three years and start to realize that people are making the same progress as you in a third of the time. You'll be sitting there reinventing the wheel because you can't be assed to spend a few hours a week actually investing in your improvement.

You're not special. You're going to make the same stupid mistakes everyone else does when they start out. The point of the sticky is to direct you towards resources that address the most common things artists must learn.

Is there a way to increase your creativity? I've been doing so many academic style drawings lately that I feel like I can't do anything unique or memorable.

When I sit down to draw something "fun" as a break from yet another study, I end up drawing some banal monster, knight or other unoriginal crap.

What can I do to get out of this rut? How does /ic/ flex it's creative muscles?

a practice i always enjoyed was to get two people to give me the first word that came to mind, and to incorporate that in to a drawing. i think brainstorming original ideas takes a matter of stepping away from what you're used to and instead inventing on a conceptual, symbolic, and linguistic level. you could always pen down some words and figure out how to best portray them in a design sense.

also, i really dig the brushwork in that pic. if it's yours, how did you achieve that wash of colour? it's really nice.

Any of you guys use PS CC torrented or cracked?

Granted, doing art for people at this point is not my main source of income but I'd also like to be paid for my efforts.
How do I bring up that I'd like to be paid for this, especially at this point? I'd still like to do the logo since I have a fun design for it, but I hope he doesn't get turned off by me asking for him to pay something. Since he's an acquaintance and this logo is only for some video game event he's hosting, I probably wouldn't charge that much, maybe like $30-$40, but I still don't know how to go about it.
