Why is that a bad thing you self conscious cuck? This is just the shitty part of your brain that holds you back in life. You've been studying for months. You're doing good. Just keep going and you will become a good artist. Or keep making little pussy cry threads and stay shit
Someone posted a thread that lied about my work and defamed me a while back. And whenever you google my name it's on the 2nd page Is there anyway I can get this removed from warosu or 4chan?
>>3071989
No, welcome to life crybaby.
I don't think so but congrats
You probably got a bunch of people looking at your gallery thanks to that bullshit
>>3071989
surely if you put your name here, and explain the situation this will be a higher up search result

Based on this drawing,
What should I do to improve.
pls give some feedback
>>3070482
It kinda depends on what your goals are.
Design
- If this is the same creature in different stages of development (baby,teen,adult), then the teen version does not fit the others. It lacks consistency. You might have done this on purpose (rebellious teen kinda thing), but if this would be for a game, it would cause confusion. it would not be approved by an Art Director.
Things that do not fit: Feet suddenly very small. Tail length shorter than baby. No ruffles on neck. Muzzle suddenly very long. Feathers on head almost all gone (though the spikey look might be nice. It would just need more feathers).
Colour
- Colours are quite nice, but could use a little 'pop'. If it's all just soft pastels, there's nothing to draw the attention. The gem is a bit more saturated, but quite dark. It doesn't stand out very well.
- If the entire body is uniformly beige, it is quite boring to look at. Maybe add some slight variation to the hue and/or saturation.
Drawing
- If you want to go for a more finalized look, polish the line art more.
- When you draw, decide for yourself what is the function of line weight. Do you add it to suggest shading (thicker lines in darker areas, very light areas have very thin or no lines) or to draw attention to key elements (thick lines in areas where the viewer should pay attention to). Now it still looks a bit arbitrary.
- Some parts are not drawn as good as it could be. The uper arm of the adult, the legs of the teen, also the legs of the adult. It's not bad, but the line art should suggest volume and shape, but in these areas it is hard to tell.
- The shading is not always consistent. darker areas are sometimes because of shadows, sometimes not. In some places there is no shadow where I could expect it. Use a slightly different hue to distinguish between dark areas that are shadows and those that are not.
- To create uniform shading, consider doing an ambient occlusion layer.
It's a good Pogeymon design, yeah, but we don't know what else to criticize you about.

I've sold shit like this for like 50 USD a pop when /ic/ was telling me to fuck off to /beg/ but yeah you do need to work on fundies too.

what is a good drawing tablet for someone just getting into digital media?
I'm looking for something cheap that has decent quality to it
This one is perfect already
>>3065120
I recently got Huion Q11K, and it's great.
warning if anyone gets a huion, i have a huion and while the tablet is good quality the driver issue meme is real, i usually have to replug the entire thing and sometimes restart photoshop if i dont put the pen on the surface for a few minutes, like if i leave my desk or watch something.
i honestly wouldn't recommend it if you're just a cheapshake, it's not worth it.
could you guys help me find a painting?
it might be familiar to some of you, a painting of a japanese city with tall buildings, with an anime artstyle yet very detailed, and lastly there was this beautiful yellow-orange lighting to it.
i found it
i'm still amazed everytime i look at it
>>3074957
Akira?
>>3074977
yeah the japanese are the best at this sort of thing,
i have a few similiar ones which i saved ages ago, i think they're this one only at different times of day
You should be able to solve this.
>>3074653
uhh is it the point where the things vanish
anyway, i quite like it as a piece of art
>>3074653
Literallly a straight line from the VP, then you make up for the curvature by having one vanishing point slight below the VP in the HL and one slightly above.
>>3074653
it's water and it's wet. Mystery solved you shitbrain.

>>3074609
You draw for likes? Maybe that's the problem.

And who doesn't?
>>3074609
Stop giving a shit about likes or you're gonna have a bad time, anon

"Never get high on your own supply"
Serious question
Should you draw smut for money if it arouses you?
If it arouses you sure.
If you jack off to your own stuff it's a bit weird isn't it? Just draw stuff you like and that's the end of it. Just like if you were a drug producer you'd make some shit you know is good. You don't actually have to go and smoke it.
If you make shit that you like, you know that some people will like it.
>>3073915
Well drugs have a limited supple, plus they can fuck you up. These are just drawings, fap to them all you want just as long as you get them done and delivered on time.
>>3073915
If you're drawing porn and it doesn't arouse you, you're not drawing it well enough in my opinion. If you, the artist, can arouse yourself with your work, that ensures that the average viewer will find it arousing as well
Is there a decent alternative to these bad boys now that they're so expensive?
this one but it's a smaller eraser but they have one with a bigger but rectangular tip i guess
>>3073862
What the hell happened to these? My local art store use to sell them for 6 to 8 dollars, but now their gone and they cost around 25 bucks online.
There's an alternative brand that's come out now, I've seen them at my local art store. I'll swing by and take a picture of them to see what brand they are.
some people told me that i just need to draw and draw without even having any kind of social contact and eventually ill be a good artist how true can be that?
Getting good has nothing to do with attention whoring.
>>3072814
You git good for the sake of gittin' good.
Because you want it.
Only a shit-tier lonelyfag needs a """"following"""" for motivation to improve.
Some decent advice here:

I'm retarded /ic/. Does anyone know of any books or videos or anything that go more in-depth about multiple horizon lines? I can't execute it right at all.
>>3064886
just imagine that you're tilting your canvas and add on horizons like that.
>>3064886
It's as simple as aligning center of vision and rotating the horizon in the way you want it. It says so right there!
I noticed I draw best when I'm out and about. I want to draw digitally that way I have access to colors without making a mess everywhere I go.
Is the Microsoft surface pro the best portable drawing tablet for this?
>>3049337
A Note 4 is the best thing on the market if you want something practical and small to do art on the go, I don't really thing something that big would be helpful without a table or something.
I'm interested in this as well. My laptop broke about a year ago and I'm currently using a real shitty and slow 300 dollar notebook. I need a new laptop and I'm eyeing the new surface largely because it's also a drawing tablet. I heard that the previous models were not that good, but for those that have any experience with the new one, is it worth it? My budget is 1g.
Just get markers, seriously.
But as far as digital goes, ipad pro (2017), hands down. If you get one with a smaller storage, it's not even expensive.
I don't know if something radically changed with surface pro 5/2017 (spoilers: it didn't), but 4 is not a good drawing tablet, and it's fucking expensive if you actually get the specs needed for muh industree stantard (which is frankly shit on a tablet, anyway).
There's some e-reader-type art tablet thing coming out that might be good, but I'm not sure it even has color.
drawing them by the front seems so fucking difficult
>>3074372
