I liked it. How much time?

>>2364766
Colors are alright. Evokes a Japanese sumi-e vibe. I would try relying less on fancy brushes, it looks like the mountains are the only thing you actually drew.

>>2364770
About 3 hours alltogether
>>2364775
Yeah I used some cloud brushes and also grass and trees are from said brushes. Thanks fro your feedback, I'll try use less next time

May I introduce this to you young padafaggot:

Looks like you should bake it in the oven.

You get and internship at the end of third year in Sheridan's animation program. You get lots of help getting one too, so long as you apply yourself a bit it's basically guaranteed. The program's 4 years long and the BAA you get let's you work in the states ez (granted you can find the work)

>>2364487

Yeah I know about the animation program, but I dislike animation and would rather do a fine art program. You know, illustration/concept art/etc.

Anything even half-decent?

>>2364496
>Fine art
Gross!! Nah, just kidding. I'm only familiar with the animation program at Sheridan, sorry. One of my roommates was in the illustration program, but I don't think they get an internship at any point. They do still get their BAA to let them work in the states, though.

git gud or use a stabilizer

>>2362336
how to git gud though? any techniques? holding breath?

brace just beyond wrist against table
paint using elbow rather than wrist

>>2362101

First of all, it isn't art.

>>2362125

every single attempt at a community in 4chan turns into this, just check any random general in other boards

Just bought a Surface Pro 4 after doing a lot of research.


Surface Pro 4 i7 6650U graphics = Intel Iris 540
Surface Pro 4 i5 6300U graphics = Intel Iris 510

Wacom Companion 2 i7-4558U graphics = Intel Iris 5100

JUST THE GRAPHICS:
SP4 i7 > Companion 2 > SP4 i5

How does it perform though?

I mostly care about what it feels like to draw on it.

Something I really liked about the Intuos is that it really does feel like you're drawing on paper (barring the hand-eye coordination), and always wanted to try drawing on an on-screen tablet like the Cintiqs. Plus, I'm always on the go, so a portable tablet is a must these days.

How does it compare to the Surface as far as how it runs, and how it feels to draw on it? Does it hold up to wacom tech?

>>2358635
>>2358643
Brah, I feel you. I went through the exact same dilemmas, and currently own an i5 SP4. Like you, I found the flaws of the CC2 to be deal-breakers, namely that it supposedly has a horrible failure rate, and I am currently abroad, not wanting do be dealing with Wacom customer service and sending my device away multiple times.

As a tablet, the SP4 is superior to the CC2 in virtually every area except one; the pen, which is arguably the most important area right? That's what makes this decision complicated. So the question is; is the 'inferior' Surface Pen still good enough?

So far, my answer would be 'I think so', but I do need to spend more time with it. Firstly, when I draw/paint, I am doing lots of short quick strokes, so the jitter issue is not encountered here.
The other issue with N-Trig is activation force, where you have to press a bit harder than you would with a Wacom pen to register that first light stroke.

I think if you can deal with those flaws, you'll like it. The pressure sensitivity beyond the activation force is good. Latency is negligible enough to be a non-issue for me.
You also get the benefits of less parallax, better edge accuracy, and a screen with better colour accuracy.
The form factor is also great to draw with, like a real sketchbook that you can easily flip from portrait to landscape, and the 3:2 aspect ratio is nice for portrait mode. Battery life is good and fans have never come on when using Manga Studio, unless plugged in and charging.
I don't mean to come across as a Surface shill however. I will be keeping an eye on what Wacom does, because if they ever release a CC3 that fixes the problems of the 2, then I might be tempted to upgrade. I guess my dream device would be a Surface Pro 4 with Wacom digitiser, but since that doesn't exist yet, I'm making do and just getting on with actually painting.

Not in my neighbourhood buddy

>>2358624
it's pretty weird to have the habitation between business and hotel. business in the middle would made more sense. and what supposed to be on the top of the building?

>privat

One thing I've noticed over 3 years of studying architecture is how many typos there are on presentation drawings. Photoshop really needs a spell check feature.

It's interesting I suppose. I feel like the shape of it will starve some interior office areas of natural light on the lower floors. Also I find labeling as East/West etc is better than Front/Right; it gives more information

>>2364303
>tracing photos and then trying to replicate your line work freehand
Huh, that's a good idea, I should probably print some pics out (or get a tablet, which would probably be more expensive short term but better in the long term)

>>2364320
Not OP there.

I should try that some time. I usually freehand them. Tracing is usually a good practice if its not used to sell your art or lying to your customers.

i honestly can't tell if this is trolling anymore

>>2364357

>feel awkward asking the guy to pay for it
>friends with the guy
>art not main source of income

Kind of answered your own question here. This is clearly something you enjoy as well and doing this will benefit yourself as well as your friends + it won't even take that long compared to a fully rendered environment with character concept etc. Just do it, maybe he'll understand you invested your free time into it and buy you some beers

If the logo is going to take any considerable amount of time just tell him you'd rather be compensated for your time, if you want to be nice about it just give him a reasonably cheap rate.

Nobody should just expect someone to devote hours of their time to doing something for free just because they asked, friend or not. If you were an accountant and your friend asked you to do his taxes you'd probably tell him to fuck off.

>>2364377
> buy you some beers

To be fair I never met the guy in person. We just kinda do our show over Skype. He's like a friend of the main host/creator of the show who I've met in person.

really fucking old but its the only thing I've made that would be original

>>2364250
Shit mate, sorry I kinda suck, but I don't have many resources, HOWEVER, I found this http://www.creativebloq.com/colour/tools-colour-schemes-12121430 shit if you wanna slap
down some bookmarks.
(Honestly, I'd dive at the chance for some good reading on character design, but I can never fucking find any
Most of it is stuff like; You should know anatomy!!! or Make your character unique!!
which isn't really helpful bECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS THAT)

Yeah. Draw a lot.

>>2364284
why do people think drawing is some mechanical skill lmao, drawing a lot is so fucking stupid.. Just make sure you're always retaining new knowledge aka putting it on paper
