Post some of the types who frequent your local figure drawing establishment.
>The Social Butterfly
Girl who stops drawing every 30 seconds to text.
>Autisimus Maximus
400 lb autistic guy who gets visibly upset when he has to move to make room for some one
>The Networker
Skinny nerdy guy who shakes everyone's hand and chats with them for a few minutes
>Kill Me Already
Bitter old man who always frowns and grunts audibly while drawing.
>The Creepy Professor
Middle aged math teacher who awkwardly tries to chat up the models despite them being less than half his age every single time, may also be autistic.
>the faggot
Goes on art discussion boards and makes threads to discuss all kinds of people.

OP this is slightly fun to read, but why are you not focusing on drawing?
there's this one girl with giant tits and a very low neckline. she was sitting opposite of me and started to get on the floor and draw on her knees. she was 'working' very energetic, so her breasts started swinging around and one escaped her bra. needless to say that this was very distracting and I got angry at myself.
so from this day on I've added another wank to my day just before a figure drawing session. which is not a perfect solution, because I have less time for drawing, but at figure drawing classes
YOU NEED TO STAY FOCUSED
>>2272121
These are people who have been regulars at my figure drawing place for years. Impossible not to notice them desu.

This is more like what would happen correct`? It's still incredibly fucked up. No idea how to draw hands fml
>>2271371
That's gorgeous anon. Lots of energy left from not overworking things. Reflection is maybe a little too dirty.
There are plenty of boorus for weeb shit and anime
But why hasn't any one made a booru with traditional and realistic paintings yet
Drawings and paintings that are more tasteful that all that anime garbage
>>2271295
Nobody in the current times has reached that level of draftsmanship or has even come close to achieving it despite the medium and all the tools we have on our disposal with digital.
>>2271295
>>2271310
damn, this is me. spot on.
Id like to gitgud at ms-paint adventures style art. Where do i need to improve?
>>>/i/
Improve your board choice
Here's another.
>>2271111
And piss off if you're not offering any advice.
So, my mom is really not wanting me going as an artist. I have made a lot of progress over the years. I've done my anatomy studies(still), but now been starting draw many other things besides the figure. Animals, clothing studies, etc. Any ways to deal with this /ic or should i just ignore and continue on for what I want to do. Freelance illustration~
>>2271028
How old are you?
my mom is the same. my dad believes in me 200% but my mom tells me 'yeah sure thing sweety but you'll have to get a real job sometime, and the longer you wait the harder it's going to be'.
your parents know jack shit about commercial art, might be a good idea to keep that in mind.
They are mainly motivated by concern for your wellbeing, anon.
Their objections tend to fall away once you start earning a (steady) paycheck.
>>2271030
23. She stills sees it as a hobby despite me drawing over 5 hours every day. I haven't touched digital in months to solidify my foundations too.
>>2271005
read the fuckin sticky and loomis
Fucking hybrider I'm gonna get my m8 so ice barrage you
>>2271005
don't upload 3600x4000 files faggot. i'm not waiting for that shit to load.
How am I doing so far?
very fooly with a little cooly
heads too big
>>2270834
Which one?
Why the fuck does /ic/ never talk about cast drawing?
I only just by chance found this out and apparently it's an amazing technique for improving.
>>2270705
Isn't it just a glorified form of drawing from life, which gets recommended here a lot.
>>2270709
It's a modern practice for people who want to paint like old masters by taking shortcuts.
did this one recently, I'm proud
Does anyone on here still use deviantart? What are your positive and negative experiences with it? Is it worth it to make one?
Doesn't hurt but I wouldn't invest much time in it. Your stuff will probably get a dozen views at most unless you work to get it out there by posting it to groups, and the process of posting to groups has a bunch of irritating hoops where you need to apply to join it and then apply to have your art accepted. I'd say if you get it, just dump your art there and don't worry about it, and make tumblr your main place to post your shit.
Deviantart is so saturated with shit that your new posts will be buried almost immediately with a dozen ponies and other garbage, and the entire site is built around funnelling everyone to the top 1% most popular artists that already have tens of thousands of watchers. At least tumblr has a system where you have people actively looking for shit to reblog in whatever subject matter they themed their blog around.
>>2270632
No, it is not worth making one you will delve into a level of delusion to the point you will hinder any form of improvement or pursuit of knowledge.
>>2270632
deviantart is synonymous with mental retardation

i wonder if this one will stay since you pretty much are calling us degenerates..so what if i'm incredibly horny for my Malaysian cartoons?
to the faggots in the prev thread i sincerely and politely ask you all to stop trolling great artists such as BBC, Smurf, Firez and Kyle otherwise they will not post their art here.
>>2270084
Do not use that word here, it triggers visitors from /pol/.
Any colorblind artists here?
How do you choose your colors?
What techniques do you use to blend?
Any advice to color properly?
>>2270067
daniel warren is color blind he has good advice for people like you and i heard rumors about him having special color wheels and brushes but i'm just an anonymous faggot so good luck..i'm sorry you cant see colors.
>>2270067
Im colorblind, tend not to use colors but that may just be why I wont get very far..
>>2270071
Thanks, I'll look into his stuff.
And for the record, colorblindness isn't always shades of grey; I for one am protanopic, so my vision looks like this. It ranges from mild to severe, but even at my level, picking out tones, especially for skin is nearly impossible. But colors still are beautiful, and I wish I could use them. Hopefully Warren helps me out
Anyone else here interested in taxidermy? Post pics of your work, references, guides, etc. Also, where do you guys find your specimens? I live in Arizona so it's pretty barren. I'm limited to mostly rodents and rabbits because I can buy them as feed for reptiles.
Pic related is a rabbit of mine.
Bump for intrest
>>2270028
jesus Christ..i bet you stuck bad dragon pussies on these dead bodies.
I have pet rats, when they die I want to put wires through their bones to have a little skelly rat to keep me company.
Dunno if I'd be able to do it without breaking down and crying tho, they're my only friends ._.
What do d/ic/ks think abot Bob Ross?
The problem I have with his work and what he teaches is that it's all some sort of cheap "trick" to make something that looks decent, but you won't go very far with this alone.
Let me explain. If you pay attention to his work, he doesn't seem to have any understanding of perspective or volumes. All he does is place flat plains one in front of the other, rather than fully build a scene in volume and perspective. The mountains never connect to the middleground and so on. If you look at his pieces where there is no background, he doesn't even know how to build a landscape that goes to the horizon. Another problem is that he has no understanding of values.
On the other hand, he does master the paintbrush in the sense that he can make trees within a short amount of time. But he lacks some fundamentals and it shows.
>>2269824
I think he sucks but he's cool for being a chill funny dude. A meme sort of. As a painter though he sucks major balls.
>>2269844
Art is not rocket science. Even Vilppu said that you don't need perfect knowledge of perspective and anatomy.
Show me your SAI brushes, swatches and stuff like that.
I just moved SAI so I'm courious, how did you arrived to your current settings?
Pic related are some settings I stole from some guy on tumblr that I used to follow.
My shitty brushes
>>2269667
I'm just realize that's pen not brushes but fuck it
The only two I ever use.
this is my latest. give me your worst, niggers.
nose looks kinda fucked
>>2269485
eyes are fooked
hairline too (was this copied from a picture or a live model?)
flat chin
hair rendered too much kinda ugly near the bottom
If this is from an image (which is suspect it is, fuck me if im wrong) then be careful of how the lens distorts the subject, if you look back and forth between the corners of her jawbone and then to her cheekbones you can tell that theres some head warping.
eyebrow on right comes closer to bridge of nose laterally than the left one
imo
