The angle of that fore-arm in space is not correctly conveyed. It looks like it's really short.

You've already reposted that thing wehre he got caught in 2003 lying like 3 times this week. Enough already. This shit is as bad as the all the stupid kron threads.
I saw a while ago a drawing/manga reference page with different sets of pictures. The first set was a japanese schoolgirl from all angles and in different positions. You had to pay for most of the content but there was also free stuff. I forgot to bookmark the site. Can anyone help me to find it again?
Typical ic answer: FUCK YOU GO TO req. Tits or get the fuck out!
Now speaking seriously anon you mean this (pic related)
I have the link hidden my resources notes... the last time I checked it I was about to buy it (I had the money ) the site went wrong or something.
I couldnĀ“t buy it but I downloaded the video with most of the poses with is pretty much the same thing.
Do you want it?

>possibly one in fifty people can't conjure a mental image
>there's probably a few among us
I wonder if this would be an insurmountable obstacle to drawing from imagination. It's just now starting to be researched so it's tough to really say, but has anyone around here experienced something similar? I guess if you've never experienced a mental image you wouldn't know.
sounds like sycra
This sounds nightmarish. I wonder what's the percentage of people who become accountants....
I was always afraid of learning to draw because of this. I can recall my loved ones pretty well, but anything else is very vague. That quiz puts me in the bottom 9%. When I draw from reference I rely extremely heavily on measuring and ratios to get things right. I have no ability to draw from imagination.
Sculpture/Pottery General
Anyone working in clay, metal, stone, or sculpey? Let's see it!
>>2306582
I don't do this stuff, but I think it's cool that you do.
How hard is it to get into? Don't you need a lot of materials (special overs, clays, glazes etc)? How much does it cost you to produce each one, and how long does it take?
Do you do anything other than jugs?

Also so this isn't an empty post correcting my spelling, have some of Picasso's pottery, I really really like it even though I don't like most of his other work: http://poulwebb.blogspot.ca/2010/05/picasso-pots.html

Helo, IC! I remember a thread a real while back that had a lot of posts with deeply disturbingly drawn pictures and recently i've lost aaaallll of them. Really kinda hope some kind anons out there saved or collected some study material consisting of body horror disturbing, elongated, misshapen creatures, possibly glitch art or something alike, really anything with the key words being disturbing, eliciting fright or similar feelings. I really can't find anything alike searching on my own but I hope to have better luck dedicating a thread to it!
pic vaguely relevant
>>2307411
This one is pretty scary
>>2307411
I hate those threads and the people who get off only on horror and spooky images. Usually there's only a few artists too that get circlejerked a ton. Look up Beksinski, Barlowe, and Hiroaki Samura's Love of the Brute, and then go away and don't clutter the board with it.
Black Paintings of Goya.
Here's a list of artists that have some great portfolios. This list is not complete and it would be great if /ic/ decided to contribute names of artists that deserve recognition for their work. This list focuses on artists who have shown a clear understanding in the technique and dedication it takes to hone their craft. As a result, creative and alternate artists have been left out.

This means artists who dwell in the realm of modern, post-modern, meta, and abstract art are probably not going to be incorporated in possible future lists.

cool stuff, if it had pressure sensitivity it could be zbrush-lite.
This is why I grew to hate art.
Put detail into the focus piece then everything else not into focus has shit detail. Fuck everyone doing this.

So I just started working with digital media a month ago, I have lots of experience with traditional media and I'm overwhelmed by the color choices.
I'm planning to make a palette/swatch to narrow down the options like choosing colors from a box of painting, anyone has tried the same before or has been in a situation like mine?
I have several different palettes from different sources like pic related and I plan to narrow them down as preferences develope.

Well if you have experience in traditional media, try and think about color in the same way. You don't really have to mix colors in digital media, you just select what color you want. Obviously you can layer things and blend, but it's different from traditional media in that the steps aren't
>find what color you want
>mix that color
>apply paint
but is instead
>find what color you want
>apply paint
I would caution you to stay away from swatches like the ones you're posting, as all it's really going to do is keep all the color you're going to use super local and unobserved.
>>2308645
I don't think too many people lay out their entire palette before beginning a painting. The most common technique I've seen is to pick your colors with the color picker (the slider/wheel with the hue and a box with the saturation and value range of the hue) and use the eye dropper to sample colors you've already used from the painting. Ctrl+Paint advocates building up a mini-palette on a separate layer and actually mixing the colors to get new ones. I think the first method is superior, but the second is closer to real paints. Some people even use the RGB sliders.
When I first started I had the same idea you did, but it's not worth the effort unless you need a consistent color scheme. Picking any color takes 2 clicks, and sampling a color you've painted takes a control+click. Learning what colors to pick is probably better than narrowing down your options.
Also, assuming your software supports multiple open images, there's nothing stopping you from opening some photos or paintings you like and grabbing colors from it. That's probably the option you're looking for if you want a palette to get started, as they're already be sensibly arranged and work well together.
Is this how you should do a character concept for animation?
I did a character based on myself. It looks like shit to me. What do /ic/?
Context: I'm not going for realism, I just want to make shitty animations in flash
>>2307999
learn to draw before you learn to animate

Don't.

Can't you just use photoshop for both warping and animation?
that gif makes me deeply uncomfortable.
lets find out which digital artist has the most fans on /ic/.
simply pick your favourite artist(s) (around 5 - 10). the order doesnt matter. i'll tally up the names in a few days to see who got the most mentions.
this is for digital artists only.
>>2305647
That's a terrible way to find out. Better to make a poll or something with names suggested.
Although that's not even really necessary considering it's obvious Ruanjia will win. I don't think he's the number 1 digital artist, but he is the most popular on /ic/ it seems. Both realists and weebs love his stuff, he is more accessible than Mullins, people who don't get off to brushstroke stuff like Jaime can appreciate him, and his stylizations aren't as extreme as Peleng. I suspect Zedig will be one of the top spots for number of fans, but he also has a ton of haters here too for some reason. But Ruanjia would still win the popularity contest by a fair bit I think.
>>2305659
>Better to make a poll or something with names suggested.
no thats the worst since there are too many artists to put on one poll. and people would be up in arms on why their special snowflake artist wasnt included.
im also thinking ruan jia will win but lets try to be surprised
>>2305647
Just make a straw pole
What do you think of it?
