/ic/ how do I make the grind exciting again? The first 7 months when I first started trying to get gud, it felt really fun, but now it just feels eh.

Think of a little personal project you want to draw and do studies that help you achieve a good result.
>>
>>3009582
Switch to spending more time on each study and personal picture, trying to push each one to be professional. Try to get feedback on them, visualize where you want your pictures to be and ask why they're not there yet.

Just mindlessly grinding is asking for burnout. Once you get past the "can draw an actual figure looking at it, not just some shitty symbol drawing" it's time to start pushing yourself.
>>
>>3009582
This is what happens when your only goal is to get gud. What did you want to draw in the first place, what do you enjoy? Draw that, and get with a community where you can share your art.

A painting looks bigger in Paint Tool Sai and smaller when it has been saved. Why?

My surface pro 2 is having serious thermal issues (sudden shutdown even after restoring, trying different windows versions, etc) so I need a replacement I was thinking on acquiring the 13 model with i7 and 8gb. It's considerable more expensive than my not so different spec wise SP2 but since it is considerable bigger in screen size and can be used as a cintiq I was thinking it can be worth it.

I only have some concerns due to the issues people used to have with the companion and I also dislike the 16:9 aspect ratio. Also reddit has this list of issues but it seems that they appear mostly in the 16" models

Are you dead set on buying a portable, or would you consider a desktop tablet as well?
>>
>>3009939
I would consider a desktop setup but Unfortunately I've a full time job on something non related to art so I take advantage of dead times or staying in a near Cafe instead of wasting time in traffic to work more on my stuff, also this year I started getting tons of commissions which I was not expecting and I'm already late due to the issues with my SP2. In short having a portable drawing device allows me to Be more productive at least until I can totally make a living out of my artworks.

Have you considered the newer surface models or any other 2 in 1 clones (galaxy asus hp etc)

Have you tried re-installing your drivers, and making sure you have the latest drivers for your tablet?
>>
>>3010030
Yeah, I'm even using the newest drivers.
I completely removed all old drivers beforehand, got the newest drivers from wacom and installed them before plugging the tablet in.

I have NO fucking idea what to do.

can someone tell me how the fuck i can fix the background/composition
21 posts and 4 images submitted.
>>
Just add some sort of detail to it. A break in the mesa, some tiny sci fi hamlet, idk. It doesn't have to be something big and complicated, just something to break up the horizon.

all you have to do is change the background shape. you don't even have to paint anything for real.
>>
>>3007803
How do you even tell if that's broken?
>>
make the hill bigger so that it's higher than they horizon. and add a cloud

Has anyone ever done commissions while also working a full-time job?

My job requires that I actually think for it (i.e. not working at McD's) so that leaves me pretty tired after work, but I've always wanted to take art commissions, especially since I've been needing more money lately. Just wondering if anyone's had experience with this.

Just take as many as it is not overwhelming?
Considering you got a full time job that's also not slave labor, you must not be desperate for money.

>>3007759
Well I'm still a student in undergrad, so they have a cap on what they can pay me, and I also need money for tuition and room & board for next year.

Don't think about it too much. Take one commission. Just do that much. Maybe you'll love it!

Why do you charge so low for commissions?

> full windows 10
> waccom stylus
> 128 SSD
> core m 2.6 GHz
> 4 gb of ram
> included keyboard
> 1080p screen

It seems better than a surface/ipad pro at a really sweet price:

>4GB Ram

No
>>
>>3009704
doubt it. galaxy 12 should be fine though
>>
>>300983

$1,417.95 for the 8 gb ram version, that's just too expensive. my budget is up to $800 and considering this guy made this with the ancient note 8.0 https://youtu.be/Zr1c7kuItY0


I though that the book 10.6 would do the work just fine. If someone know any windows tablet for around this price that has a decent stylus, let me know it

This is a joke, right? How can someone improve so little in the span of 4 years, all they did is change there style. And before you say it "durrr autism" let me ask you this. Do you really think that someone can be this complacent. In all my years of seeing artwork I have never seen someone so complacent, it looks, ironic. Is this all Irony d/ic/ks? Give me a sign.

This is exactly what happens when you stop practicing your fundies and "don't want to draw realistic". You stagnate.

they probably don't draw a lot. besides, they have seemed to improve in terms of hair, color, and expressions.

> I don't want someone to steal my work

good luck

Either it's shit and not worth stealing, or it's worth stealing and people will steal it. Do you mean 'take credit for it' or 'not pay you for it'? Because the latter is infinitely more likely than the former, but none are terribly preventable short of watermarking your shit so much that nobody will even bother to look at it.
>>
>>3009098
look, your manga is shit. I havent seen it but im speaking statistically. And no, you aren't the exception.

its just the first chapter, itll go ignored due to a mix of lack of skills as well as uninteresting writing. If you do get success its only the first chapter, so it doesnt matter if its everywhere, actually, its better since people'll look for the 2nd one and you can have a plan by then.

Yes, there is a youtube version for webcomics where you make a % of their ad revenue. Theres a korean and english version, i forget both names. You're better off just giving it to the public and doing a patreon + some tables at cons + merch IF of course my assumption that you're shit is incorrect.

If you're so god damn confident, put it in a contest for a Japanese publisher. You can even pay for a translator since you're so confident you're good. It's only gonna be like 30 bucks max. You can even send it straight to marvel or DC, im sure they have a process.

Why do people "clone" artstyles? One thing is taking inspiration, make it your own, but cloning it? just feels... cheap and soulless.
For example this guy is straight up a shittier discount Ilya Kuvshinov
http://komatsukinagato.deviantart.com/

when people will look at his art they'll always compare it to kuvshinov, realize kuvshinov is better and then forget about this guy, if his artstyle was somewhat unique people would stick around for a bit more.
Oh yeah not to forget all the sakimichan clones as well

>someone who cares about Ilya caring about art being cheap and soulless.

maybe they just really really like the artstyle
>>
>>3009076
Can't really blame them, 1-2-3 anime is much faster than developing your own style. A lot of people steal from many sources, but if they only care about the one person's art then it's just logical for them to steal all from one. Plus, it comes in a pre-coherent bundle. As opposed to a jumbled mess that takes years to unscramble.

TRY TO BE MORE ACTIVE AND GIVE PEOPLE SOME FEEDBACK - many studies are left unreplied, which is a bit sad and can be quite demotivating for the people that try their best to improve, but are left directionless.

FAQ:
Something's broken, what do I do?

>The original developer of the site has taken a leave for quite a while, originally due to medical reasons. Progress on the site is almost non-existant at this point. You can try contacting him at @LavaFlake or emailing him at [email protected].

What do we draw?

>Whatever you want. At this point there's no required topic so draw your heart out. Make sure you submit at least a half hour of work or you may get a low effort warning.

What's a low effort warning?

>The goal is to get people to draw every day by turning it into a competition. The low effort warning system is to prevent people from posting last minute, quick sketches when they're feeling lazy. If you receive a warning and it happens again within a month you'll be eliminated.

>This rule has been the cause of a lot of concern amongst newer artists so let me reiterate: this system is to police low effort content and has nothing to do with the quality of the work. New artists are more than welcome.

What happens if I'm eliminated?

>Your streak will go back to 0 and you will have to start again. No other penalties.

How can there be a new Last Artist Standing challenge every week?

>There is no week system anymore, instead new users are given "streaks" based on the number of consecutive days you can submit without getting eliminated. (token losses do not reset your streak)

Will I have an advantage if I join later in the week?

>The winner of a Last Artist Standing will be the artist with the longest streak. If you join on day 1 and last until day 85 then you'll have a streak of 85. If there's only one person left in the challenge when you're eliminated but they joined on Day 7 then they'll need to continue on for another week. If they're eliminated before then, you win.
there. kick rocks.
