Anyone here use something other than Photoshop? Sai? MediBang? GIMP? Something else? I'd like to see if anyones capable with these and what you guys think of them. Just started using MyPaint and the pencil tool feels god-tier with my tablet.
>>3122324
anything "pencil" is a gimmick
it's all just the soft round brush modified
>>3122328
so long as it kinda looks pencil textured why does it matter
>>3122328
Do you just use that for everything then? I'm a complete noob to digital.
How long would it take me to get to the level of the right picture? I draw 2-3 hours everyday.
>>3122048
5-10 years.
>>3122048
20 YEARS
>>3122048
less than 2 years if you're not retarded
Can anyone tell me what this style of drawing is?
I don't think that has a specific name other than single line drawing.
Not every drawing is made with a named style.
>>3122032
Their style.

So I got some questions about screentones as I keep experimenting around to find the style.
I used this guide:
https://heydesign.com/2016/01/digitalscreentone/
To get this effect, which is fine for a digital webcomic, as it has that manga "feel" of screentones. However, the dots here are greyed to get the color, rather than being actual screentones.
Now, this method is great, as I could literally paint things in greyscale, and then use the various patterns to create screentones, and in fact it offers me a LOT of flexibility.
However, how does this factor in when it comes to printing? It's NOT the same as real screentones. Anyone have any exp?
I flat out do NOT like the preset screentones in Manga Studio/CSP, the dots are too big even at the smallest setting, and it looks like ass when you rasterize. Not only that, but it doesn't let you properly layer screentones (and if you reduce the size/quality - which is necessary for digital formats - it will even EAT entire layers of tones).
I think this method is great, as it translates well with what I already know about painting, and could push what I can do much further, my only concern printing/costs down the line.
>>3119790
Try out using the screentones in another program, perhaps? MediBang has some decent screentones.
Working on something.
>ALWAYS sketch using textured, often asymmetrical brushes because it adds an appealing roughshod and unfinished quality to the image
>whatever appeal the completely random line weight and lost or textured edges add to the drawing obviously doesn't carry over into finished work and replacing, let alone following the lines accurately seems impossible
>anything I bring to a finish looks like the artwork from an anime or science fiction convention programming guide at best and I KNOW you know what I'm talking about
>I've been drawing for years and I've probably finished less than 5 pieces, none of which I've saved

No, it's not. Just wait for a new one to be made.

Get ready for some questionable anatomy, but most of the stuff on there is years old. Will start posting frequently again when I get a new tablet.
So some dude started a thread a while back asking for critiques on his web/comic and an anon in the thread mentioned a comic that they recommended, which title I have lost. I hope you're still here anon, or someone that remembers, I need it.
Otherwise, I'd like to check out other recommended/inspiring web/comics.

If you draw from imagination and you're a beginner, you're going to be internalizing bad habits that will be harder to break later. Don't fall for the proko meme. Drawing from observation until you're good at it. Only afterwards should you attempt imagination. For example, let's say you draw a 100 bad hands and you internalized 10 of them, that's 10 bad hands you have committed to memory that you're going to have undo in the future. Save yourself the trouble and learning how to draw from observation properly first.
ok thanks broko
>>3109989
He's right you know. Even Vetyr said that she spend the first year studying and that seemed to help her a lot. She only tackled imagination once her observational ability was high enough.
Are you saying you never drew from imagination as a child? I don't think that hurt me one bit.
So I've been hearing that /ic/ knows jack shit about business side of drawing. If so, what is it for? You realize that if you can't talk about real, important stuff, this place is no better than deviantart? In a way it's even worse, because DA can give you exposure sometimes, /ic/ is literally a closed box.
This is a place for beginners and intermediates, pros don't stick around.
>>3106938
What do you want to know about the business side of drawing and why don't you just ask your questions in a normal manner, instead of making a passive-aggressive shitpost thread?
>>3106938
Don't make ic yout go-to for everything art related, we're good at criticism and learning strategies, for business seek someone more in touch with business, Feng Zhu, Schoolism or specific artists on Artstation.
