When I mean super realistic I mean stuff like this

Also here's an example from Proko's realist drawing work.

Clearly he's adept at realism. But we also know his kangaroo speaks volumes on his imaginative illustration skills.

Is detailed realism just a meme?

One more example to show what I mean.

Why would an (aspiring) illustrator spend this much time rendering all those little muscles? Why would an illustrator even bother measuring so precisely to get drawings like this pic? Does that really help develop anything valuable for cartoons/illustration/storyboarding?

Why would you ask any employee anything at Best Buy? None of them are competent and treat the store as their eternal high school.

>>2951392
you don't want to get good, you're only interested in the idea of getting good - don't be ashamed, a lot of people who come to /ic/ are the exact same way

maybe if you're lucky you can resell it for full price -$10 on craigslist or something

>>2951392
You're really sad. I'm going to make sure to distance myself from you so I don't become like you.

>>2949548
Not civilization, but patreons. The average person never saw those paintings.

Those works only exists because kings and the church sustained the artists.

tl;dr version; jewish money schemes.

When we started thinking that what we were told is the truth rather than what we explore.
>It's hip and cool to take a crap in a garbage can and call it a banana.
Yes it's all submission towards insane asylum culture. We let it happen.

I bought it as well, I felt like it was more addressed to writers than artists.

Can you drop the insightful stuff here so I don't have to read it then?

>>2949455
Right, It didn't feel like it was aimed at artist in the painting and drawing spectrum of "art".
Not surprising being both authors are photographers.

Isn't this just a genderbent of peepers

>>2951185

That's the thing with watchdogs! There's so many of them, there's really endless possibilities. It's not a genderbent Peepers, just a female of the same species.

Cute, I like it. Enjoyed WOY myself when it was on, helped me through depression too.

She's got good geometry and shape. Colors stick to the canonical watchdog uniform and looks like she can blend in with others, very good. Personally wouldn't add blush but isn't bad. Hand on hip looks like it's cupped and awkward, use references to help you. Colors escape lines but it doesn't look like a 4 year old did it. Would recommend filling in colors so that pencil/crayon doesn't make pre-sketch indents (my autist eyes noticed the oval you drew to make the torso).

Overall, simple and good. Can use tidying, but off to good start.

Try thinking in volumes instead of lines.

Check sketches of Disney characters, and notice how they're basically all a pile of balls.
You'll automatically better understand this as you grow older though.

>>2951146
No, you need practice.

>>2950328
It's cool to look at for the first time. Nothing impressive though.

>>2950328
too much stuff going on, font is overdone and the red hand would be better off as just a contour

>>2950328
the lines don't fucking meet. what the fuck senpai? and keep your shit in >>/gd/

blue only match with the black

The only flaw I see is that the peepee isn't long enough.

You decide the fee, get paid upfront, and the marketing is done for you.

If you don't like furry, it's pointless to do.

If you were actually good, you would set your own prices.

You wouldn't do that anon, you're too much of a bitch to even do that. Just look at you making your own thread and being all desperate.

You're not serious, just in a down phase.

if you're truly desperate for more money and see only furry commissions as a viable route, I hope you're okay with drawing progressively fucked up shit for an audience you don't seem to be wholly interested in.

Maybe try to get a raise or a better job? How much do you need the money?

>>2950004
i'm saving up money and want to speed up the process.

A piece from my junior year in high school. Did it for the senior-level art class when the teacher told me he needed to see my work to accept me into it.

looks pretty stiff my friend, go read the sticky

>>2937075
Good. I've been painting and drawing my whole life, was raised by an artist mother who encouraged us to always be doing art. Once I hit high school, I got into the advanced class, where we worked on our own. It was pretty cool. We could do pretty much anything we wanted, as long as we brought in the materials. I wanted to do oil, because I had a full set thanks to my mom, but the school said no, water based only.

I always loved the week portfolios would be on the wall, and the try hard's stuff was up. This one girl, who thought she was the most talented artist ever, who'd sneer at the stuff we were working on, put up sheets of papers with (not kidding) clowns and balloons and kittens on them. Needless to say, she didn't get a scholarship, or even into any art programs.

>>2950744
probably with you making fewer and fewer mistakes until you don't need to redo anything. or i suppose if you can't then you get fired

>>2950744
You only undo your speed improvements if you don't learn from your mistakes...

>>2950744
Mistakes is where the learning happens, anon.

No
Golden number bullshit is fake too

>>2950723
Yes if you mean art that purposefully rejects already learned technique or training. Art is contextual and usually a commentary on the societal aspects of a particular period of time. This commentary can be enhanced or simply changed by the techniques and traditions used by the artist or lack thereof.
No if the artist legitimately doesn't know how to do shit. (There are still some exceptions to this but that stuff is allowed for very specific circumstances and situations.)

Keep in mind that Basqiat was trained as an artist and knew more about drawing and painting than anyone on /ic/. Picasso too was someone who got a lot of shit from idiots who only saw the cubist stuff and assumed he couldnt hack it as a realist. Picasso could draw and paint like an angel.

Moral of the story. Go back to life drawing. Your style shit aint gonna cut it,.

>>2950723
yes, it's an unregulated market so you can make a mint, now that's value $$$$$

>>2950320
>I've been grinding hardcore for the past 2 years
How did you grind?

Ban that shitposting spammer faggot of OP already.

>>2950320
Definitely not. The person you've linked isn't particularly talented, fairly average compared to the artists out there.

It's about how you practice and apply yourself.
