you can still cut your steak with a butter knife yes.

>>3074290
You can definitely produce the same results, it just feels a lot more annoying to use due to all the software and hardware issues. And sometimes when you get frustrated with the tool not doing what you want you tend to not push it as far compared to when your tool works just as you want it.

>>3074290

Yes. There is a distinct decline in line quality when I use the UGEE at work compared to my cintiq at home.

For the love of fucking god this is an art board, there's no reason to have posts without proper orientation.

WOWWWWWW thanks for sharing your big turd pile with us! KYS tard.

>>/beg/

>>3074203
Not OP but my Clover refuses to correct the orientation despite the image being properly rotated. It's weird.

l constantly find myself working til midnight as well, it's just better because it's quite and dpesn't get distracted.

Not bad, but I'm in no position to criticize you.

Looks like a lot of clutter in this render, hard to see the actual progress.
Do you have other recent stuff like sketches?

Well at least you gained some experience with lighting.
IMO the left one doesn't look bad at all except for the ayylmao neck.

>>3073788
left is tastelessly stylized but pretty okay by beginner standards
right is simply awful and the necks are still terrible

*inhales*

AHHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHA

*wipes the tears*

HAHAHAHA

*hides this thread*


At this point you would make any sort of progress if you just leave drawing.

well how about you take a look at the picture you just posted

>>3073784
so paint overs means gud?

>>3073785

Sounds easy, right? Just paint over it.

Go ahead, try and do it as well as he can.

The reason you should study loomis is not because of anime, but because of getting better at drawing. Study his plates and methods and later apply them to life drawings. Only after that you can translate that knowledge to anime. For example perspective of the head can ve applied to stylized worked and also line of symmetry and etc. So yes it's worth it

>>3073016
It will certainly help you with the placement of facial features but it will not do anything for your ability to copy the anime style. That you just have to keep practicing.

>>3073016
Studying Loomis is always worth it, but just learning his particular face construction will not directly address the evenness issues you are having.

Artists who start out drawing cartoons often breeze through Loomis, learn the head construction by rote, then try to fit that construction to anime or cartoons. That is the wrong approach. Loomis himself would not use the same face construction to draw anime or cartoons. He demonstrates this much in the beginning of the book with the cartoon faces exercise.

Construction is about how to approach complex subjects, breaking them down into a collection of simple shapes that are individually easier to manage. It's your ability to draw those simple shapes (boxes, sphere, tubes, ellipses) in perspective and dividing them properly that will improve the evenness of the faces you draw. The rules are few, it's more about the amount of practice you put into them.

you can't discuss and work at the same time, anon.

not really, all the various online communities have major weaknesses. /ic/'s strength is that there are a lot of people willing to give advice, it's weakness is that most of them don't know what they're talking about. also there's so many losers these days, you know the draw thread never used to drop off the front page, i think the problem was letting the animu fags in, at the time i was like 'let the babies have their bottle' but the 'realists' were right i guess.

People act like they know places. Yet most of them are either dead, grandmas only, or hobbyist traditional painting of realist things.

There's nothing that's worth registering for that has active working artists in a variety of industries that give critique/advice.
All the artists that were a part of the digital art forum age are long gone professionals who've either moved to twitter, youtube, or instagram.

I use a pomodoro timer, set 30 minutes instead of 25. A few hours every day.

The hours don't matter if you're not doing something to improve. I could draw lines and boxes for half an hour and learn nothing from it. In fact a lot of the time I tracked was spent on mindless doodles, because I was avoiding studies. This is just comething you should keep in mind. Don't forget to have fun, but don't waste too much time on things that'll get you nowhere.

>>3075083
Reminds of the middle age-old people at figure drawing classes who have been going forever, and are slightly better than the average person there, so everyone thinks they're one of "the real artists"

>>3075086
They have a website apparently https://brassbrothersfilms.squarespace.com

He's pretty good, great even.

What I have to say about his art though is that it's very academic. You'll see art like his in every town across the USA and Europe. I'm sure he has won many awards.

those things bring people pleasure, and pleasure brings you people. it's all a big pretzel of fulfillment.

Probably to paint fan art and beautiful girls from slightly different angles.

>>3074928
because that's all i ever wanted to do once i turned 13

Yeah, determination is part genetics and thats sucks.

>>3074103

I'm going to tell you this with absolute honesty, because I love you, anon:

-You can practice 10 minutes with your head and get further than mindlessly doing 10 hours of "studies". Mindlessness is the enemy of learning.

-You need to do things slowly if you want to have any hope in doing them correctly with speed.

-Don't ask yourself what you need. Ask your WORK what does IT need.

-Get slightly out of your confort zone. Make mistakes — Nobody needs to see your mistakes — and make sure not to commit those mistakes again.

-Artists don't daydream about making great art. They daydream about having made great art.

-The key is not time or skill, it's consistency and persistency. Your first goal must be to draw every day and not stop.

-Draw a lot, but draw consciously. Improve with every new piece you create.

- Clear your mind of thoughts. Do not think at all on how shit is done. Is better to watch a master while he's drawing and imitating the process yourself than trying to remember everything about it from a book.

You're gonna make it.

Payment amount AFTER hiring?
SCAM. SCAM. SCAM.
Don't waste your time drawing for this scammer. He's just looking for free drawings.

sounds gay

>>3074040
I don't want to.

ill buy it off you for 1.8k.

>>3073497
I got it for 2k, it's refurb
looks brand freaking new

>>3073512
One of my biggest regrets was buying a refurbished cintiq. It gave me purple streaks and dead pixels and straight up died after 3 years of use. I remember it was was done """""professionally""""" too. How long have you used yours?
