can you share the whole set/sets of these? or tell me what i have to search for to get them?
Hey I am sorry if this is a bit demanding, but I was hoping to find a few examples of exceptional shadow of the colossus art, and minimalist noveau art pieces involving struggle or a fight against the inevitable. I am working on a piece with a friend of mine and we really need inspiration.
pic related is my friends drawing
bump with another piece.
Not your personal assistant, look for it yourself. Or at the very least, don't make a blog post about it with unnecessary details "lol my friend made this drawing" and instead go post in the art book thread with shit like that to a minimum.
I'm a beginner and I want to go through this book (I've tried loomis but his stuff jumps around a bit too much for me). Just wondering what ic thinks of it?
My main fear is that book will only teach me to copy drawings rather than being able to create from imagination. It also seems to focus more on shape rather than form, which (for drawing from imagination) is another red flag.
Anyone here read/worked through/knows about this book?
Bargue is a little too advanced for a beginner
Get "jack hamm drawing the head and figure"
And "atlas of human anatomy for artists" as reference and your good to go.
>>2337755
Your criticisms of the Bargue course are right. It's good for teaching 2d observation and value grouping/value transitions.
If your goal is to draw from your head it would be better to learn a more construction-based approach. Someone like Vilppu or Hampton would be a better place to start.
>>2337768
Jack Hamm is like Loomis but objectively worse.
where can i find poses to copy if i want to draw cute anime girls in cute poses?
Search for "Super Pose Book", the japs produce tomes of naked girls posing for this exact reason.
thanks f'am but i can't afford 20 books at $40 each. any torrents for it? a cursory google search didnt give me anything

/c/
Can I get your thoughts on this piece I'm working on? I challenged myself to redraw something that I drew in high school and I wanted someone else to take a look and critique my perspective, poses, etc.

How much realism do you need to understand before tackling stylize/cartoonish art?
>>2337259
Depends on the style and person. Some people go straight to stylized art and do well, others do realism first then shift over. /ic/ usually says you need to master realism first but that's demonstrably not true. So long as you have an understanding of form and other fundamentals you can begin stylizing. The issue is people will stylize without knowledge and produce crap or symbol-based work that looks flat and terrible.
you need drawing fundamentals, that's about it
>>2337261
And what would be considered drawing fundamentals? The sticky offers some info, but is all the info necessary?
I need creative help. Its been years since I've worked on any drawings or paintings if anyone has some ideas it would be much appreciated
If thats the only thing you've drawn in two years then you might as well switch to being one of those insta girls that take selfies in front of cool shit and take flicks of your food. At least you seem attractive enough for that.
>>2339961
I mean i have more stuff but at the moment im using my boyfriend's phone and thats all i could find of my work.
>>2339971
youre a girl and your slightly attractive. Just make a thread in which you offer tutoring from a competent artist in exchange for -[s]titpics[/s]- friendship. Tons of guys to be cucked around here :)
this has gathered a lot of attention in Scotland. Search the Glasgow effect on facebook and read the comments, What do you all think?
nigga I haven't left my city in over a year and I didn't even try.
wtf are they funding? she isn't doing anything.
You should post this on /pol/, you'll get a lot more shit flinging there.
>she's a woman
Even better.
Probably going to get another call center job tomorrow and the lady mentioned i could have some paper to scribble on. How much per hour would you be willing to forbid to get a job where you can draw? Any other people have jobs where you can draw ( if so where)?
Additionally question: People who gave up "teh Dream" Where are you working at now and whats the best panic transition out of a drawing career?
I work at a call center as a sales rep. I'll. tell you about it when I get home.
>>2339563
I'm back home. Don't get a job at a call center kids, it will kill every fiber of your mental energy. I know I talk to retards on this site everyday but it's on a whole other level when it comes to call centers--you're dealing with the cream of the crop kind of retards. I'm talking redneck white trash, old bitches about to inhale their last breath, bitch ass white cunts who act like little miss princess, jocks who call in to waste your time (and theirs), the Marian's who always laugh every 2 seconds, the negresses who want shit for free, that one prank caller who thinks he'll get great youtube footage, etc.
The best "panic transition" is to GET GOOD and MAKE MONEY with your art so you can ESCAPE HELL. And you sure as hell don't want to work retail because as bad as sales is at least you can potentially make $3000 bi-weekly instead of $400 monthly like some bitch slave.
I'm doing full time hours as a history / geneology research assistant. I sometimes doodle at work when there's not much going on but even if you're working full time you can find plenty of time to draw after work, as long as you're not doing something so physically taxing that you're completely exhausted.

ITT : things that pisses you off as an artist or whatever you call yourself
>start sketching for some idea
>find a pose / composition that looks interesting
>realize it's something you've seen somewhere but can't remember where exactly so you can't even see if it's really that similar or not
pic related, still going with the one on the right but I'm pissed
>>2339628
That pose exists in like 70% of all action movies.
The question that you should be asking instead of has this pose been used before? is what makes this particular piece special?
>>2339628
You do realize that pose is probably one of the most generic action poses ever right? It's been in countless pieces of art and countless films. It's also not very practical in real life.
If she can do it /ic/, so can you.
Is that the woman from that manga? I thought she was fatter.
>>2339610
who? do what? Seems really easy to do honestly.
im sure at least 30% of us can do that.
>>2339614
oh, i see now, shes the vid whore. Ya i saw her instagram and shes terrible. youre acting as if being a porn actress changes anything to the equation.
Does anyone use super sculpey here? I want to sculpt something on top of a baked sculpey part but I don't want the new sculpey piece to stick to the old one. Is there any way to prevent the new piece from fusing to the old one when applied directly?
I'm a little confused on what you're asking exactly? You want to bake one piece, then create another piece to add onto the already baked part? What exactly are you making? The only thing I could think of is using wire to actually keep the pieces separate with a little bit of wiggle room but kind of hard to give advice when I'm not sure what you're trying to do.
Here's basically what it looks like. I have a face done and I want to sculpt the hair on, but I want them to be separate pieces because it'd be easier to sand the hair and paint the pieces that way.
Well it sort of worked when I left it outside to freeze so I can pop the piece off. Anyway SS seems like to break when I cut thin areas. Any better alternatives? I see the nips like to use polyester putty for their sculpts. How sturdy is it?
