Try the animation thread that's on here, it has a lot of resources and exercises to do.

>I want to be an animator
thats a really shit decision, you will live the rest of your life slaving away repetitively lining out someone else's creative vision for not even good pay.

Read Les Miserables

There is a possibility that mystics are right and mechanics of sin/karma pervade reality on the deepest level. Its just that you cant see them at work because you look at reality from the perspective of an ant, not an anthill.

read Nietzsche and Schopenhauer

I got this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Adjustable-Folding-Laptop-Netbook-Computer-Office-Table-Desk-Stand-Tray-Bed-Sofa/361451738408?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=630815297530&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

it is a godsend, use it with my Artisul 13D (cintiq alternative) and inking
angles adjustable and it is strong and sturdy.

Animation-wise: The timing and spacing are kind of boring

Design-wise: The outlines are a bit too thin, you can't really see them clearly. That yellow is too much for me, makes me not want to look at the animation at all. And why this aspect ratio?

GIMP is pretty comfy.
Mypaint has a more powerful and easy to configure brush engine, but I don't care for the UI.
The answer you're probably looking for is to just dual boot Win10 for Windows programs.

you have the wrong idea of what an imaginative drawing should look like. I have a very simple imagination, but I make paintings that work around that simplicity. If your imagination is symbol drawing, then symbol draw, but do it well.

>>3072806
I want to draw people, its not that easy.

How to render + how to draw by scot robertson.

loomis and / or scott robertson
that image you posted is pretty shitty btw

>>3071410

I guess?

I think it's more like adjusting and perfecting something (like a shiny, leathery appearance/effect on a tight skinsuit or something) until you achieve the desired effect

>>3071410
I recommend RC cars as a hobby for you.

>>3071410
Color, shading, texture, etc = rendering

>>3073112
Draw more. If digital art is uncomfortable to you, just draw more digitally and eventually you'll get used to it. Or spend 2000 on a Cintiq like I did, your choice

>>3073126
oh god, why is it so expensive? The hardware is worth a few hundred at most and is constantly depreciating.

>>3073138
monopoly

>Are there any good sites to make money

All of them, if you're good.

Think of it like a tournament. The only people you have to worry about are people equal/better than you. Mcgregor or some other professional athlete doesn't have to worry about being outclassed by someone who's less capable than them, so they always stay near the upper level. What they do in their daily activity is enough to BTFO 99% of their competitors.

Most people who call themselves artists usually spend their time just not making anything because they're only competitions are normies, who're at the base of society in terms of everything that requires practice/effort.
In these circles, making an attempt is no different than being the real deal.

If you're a nobody like me, the best thing to do if you want quality work is to have multiple portfolios.
a general rule is 5-10 pieces of relevant work per project. There's a huge difference between knowing how to do something vs. also having it in your portfolio. If someone wants sketches of orcs and you don't have sketches of orcs to show as samples, you're sort of fucked a lot of the time. Think of it like a google search. most of the time is spent scrolling past stuff to get to exactly what you're looking for. A lot of clients are just normie consumers with money. You sort of get used to what they mean by the words they choose.

Fantasy = Game of Thrones, World of Warcraft, or Dark Souls.
Sci Fi = Halo, Destiny, or Mass Effect
Mobile = Clash of Clans, Farmville, etc.
MOBA = Riot Games
New IP = Skyrim, Assassin's Creed, Uncharted,
FPS = Call of Duty, Battlefield, or Sci Fi (above)
Animated = Pixar/Calarts

etc.

I like this, we will call him emo bot.

>>3071815

stop trying.

You should try posting to beginner thread and not creating your own thread for trash like this, autismo.

Depends on what kind of art.

>implying hobbyists don't exist

>>3071386
clearly he means people who do it professionally.
