It might vary slightly depending what college it is and what program, but usually this is NOT the type of thing that they look for in portfolios.
Most programs actually list out stuff they want to see--mostly it is life drawing and other observational work. Digital is (often though not always) a no-no. If you do some googling you can usually find examples of portfolios that got accepted into the program you are aiming for, and you can see what things they included and what score they got.
I also don't think it is a good idea to use existing IPs in your portfolio as it shows no creativity.

not fucked? include some observational work, as well as some figure drawing. show a willingness to work through mistakes and a penchant for learning. best way to do that is with traditional work.
>>2304267
If you aren't doing enough work to have more choices than this for your portfolio, then I wish you good luck, because school does nothing for the lazy.
Don't waste your money, anon. Either lock away all your other hobbies and start taking art seriously, or start thinking that art is a hobby, and go to school for a different major.

Can we have a body paint thread?
I decided to try out water coloring out of sheer boredom the other day. I haven't done it since must be like 8th grade.... I'm 22. I tried to paint a bear but man o man is water colors difficult for beginners like me. I'm a history major, but maybe one of you art majors can critique my bear and tell me where I can improve in. It would be much appreciated, because I had a lot of fun doing this, although I'm much better at drawing.
Thanks in advance guys! I can also post my doodles if you guys wanna see em!

It alright, but it doesn't look like watercolor.
Use more water and less paint.
There are many ways to paint things, but the simplest method would be to lay down a base color (**leave some areas blank as highlights), wait for that to dry, then get a different color for the shadows.
Just don't overdo it. Keep it simple.
>>2303889
Isn't that goauche? You cannot add white with watercolor like that, can you?
>>2303889
i really like it mostly for that use of grey/white. me as a fully cell shading person often forget such things.
Hey I havent been active on /ic/ in a few years. I was wondering where all of the traditional academic artists went? Sick of all the ass holes and poor critiques. Not to mention all of the crappy digital art anime pedifiles and erotic crap leaking in from /b/. So if someone could point me in the right direction i would be forever grateful.
>>2303882
I've been here for years and there's never been any academic artists really. Now and then you get someone copying the first plate of Bargue with the eyes or doing a cast study but that's it.
I just remember people mentioning new places to put decent art up. But i wasent good enough at the time so i hung back i guess. I cant post a female portrait without d/ic/ks having something vulgar to say. Maybe they all reached success and had no need for /ic/ anymore. Or maybe somebody knows a forum like this? Maybe its just wishful thinking.

if you like to jerk off to traditional paintings, you sick perv.
(if you like something, you want to rape it, according to your logic)
I'm looking for criticism on anything I could work on. I'm just gonna show a couple of sketches. Tell me if they're good also. I always think my art sucks lol. Also if the images turn sideways my apologies. My phone does that for some odd reason.

Can someone explain how this differs from a regular color wheel in mechanics?
all color wheel have the same mechanics just different primaried and a different color for the sum of all its hues.
It doesn't. It's the regular color wheel just calibrated for the widest gamut.
>>2303651
It doesn't?
Any tips for drawing like yoji shinkawa for a newB like me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouI8KXTdzhI
Here is a live art show of Yoji Shinkawa.
He uses a lot of traditional media like ink brushes, but it's based on an understanding of anatomy and stylized anatomy.
If you listen closely as you watch the video, you can hear him muttering to himself, these are prayers to the lord Satan who keeps his art skills alive for as long as he sacrifices one of the "grand children of the above" once a year, I'm not sure where you find those though.
>>2303608
understand anatomy
visualize and only draw the shadows with a brush pen
leave a lot of blank spaces
color the rest in with computer programs
not op but crit my attempt
U guys think it's a good idea to study some Syd Mead to internalize his unbelievably accurate perspective and well simplified value structure?
Bc i just came across his work in my inspiration folder and I feel that itch that makes you want to analyze his stuff via copy
>>2303565
He has a great gnomon tutorial explaining his entire process
Also just listening to him mfw
I've met him in person and he's a very sharp old man.
>>2303568
Is he a homosexual? I've read on /ic/ he might be a homosexual. Which would crush my homophobe soul more than it already is after learning that leyen is confirmed homo and sargen is quite likely to have been homo.
>>2303565
Judging by what you posted you seem to have some images of him I had no idea about?
Can you kindly post your sources?
I love his work, but mainly got the vehicles stuff.
I'd like to see more architecture etc

What is it with you and not being able to contain your shit in the designated threads?
Why do you even still post here, it always ends in you not listening to valid critique because you're so much better than everyone else.
>>2303419
Man, I don't think I am better than anyone.
illustrat you are truly a living master
please spare us your greatness by posting somewhere else, for us mere mortals cannot comprehend the power of your work and it is wasted on us

Best sources to look up gesture videos?
>>2302580
>Gesture work
Those are not gestures. Stop drawing contour lines.
>>2302587
Don't listen to this fucking retard. The image posted captures the action precisely and if that's yours OP you're doing it right, just keep at it.
>>2302597
All I do is listen to Vilppu and among other artists. I made this topic simply because new master academy started making all their videos private.
What do you all listen to while drawing? For a long while I've simply put on music, but as of late I've been trying to listen to podcasts or audiobooks, preferably ones that'll teach me something as I sketch.
Anyone else do this, or have good stuff to share?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMgDyd2E6_8
First and last track particularly
Be sure to listen to loud music that is as distracting as possible, podcasts with annoying people talking loudly or documentaries where you keep looking at the other screen to see what's going on.

I'm writing a play and I need some help. I need some examples of where people might fund meaning in an otherwise meaningless existence.
I simply want to know where you find meaning. Please answer with one word or short phrase.

There is none. not even the blue naked guy from watchman could find any.
