At least do it in a jewish bank or something...

Not only are you a beginner but also are you an idiot. If you post here >>3116189 I will teach you my ways.

>OP
Yeah no shit, that´s why im here

Hi. I'm a beginner too, and that's why I post in the beginner thread.

use the beginner thread

>>3118199
Just try the trial version.

I feel you, my digital drawings never have the same flow as my traditional ones. Might be a matter of equipment too though.

you could try krita but its sucks functionally sometimes. but its free.

I think what's missing is it being posted in the right thread

>>3117359
kek its obvious you just watched the sinix video man. makes the problems quite a bit more obvious:

-paint away the lineart. seriously. the red and the blue clash, badly.
-work on your brush strokes/smoothing. right now it looks really smudgy. maybe some hard edge brush + airbrush in some parts would help.
-id recommend you to study the facial area more, from whatever reference you use.

good luck anon.

life, a story, something specific. It looks very generic....like a template

Nobody ?

It's hard to say that there's a coherent art style. You have everyone from Penny Arcade to Ruan Jia doing the artwork.

The new expansions have moved into a higher quality standard and look good, most of the time, without losing their charm. Sometimes it goes overboard with the rendering, contrast Medivh versus Reno Jackson. I personally prefer the latter.

When it's done right it's really charming and organic, and of course fun to play. The charge cards depict the minions running, for instance.. It prefer it to any other card art and hope to make something for it one day. Magic simply looks good but feels kinda photobashy and samey lately. It has the benefit of old age though and in that sense is a mammoth that no other card game can compete with.

As a comparison why wouldn't I do observational drawing like this pic instead?

It breaks down ideas into forms like spheres and cylinders. This is much more valuable for exaggerating cartoons & comics, but it also captures the likeness of the real thing. Isn't this a superior use of drawing time if I'm going to do observational work?

Not looking for memes or bantz just want honest feedback from other artists. Again my focus is comics/cartoons only so I never really want to be "that good" at realism. Maybe one day. But when first starting what value would I get from taking observational drawings to such a finely polished level, rather than doing construction-style art from observation?

>Pic related is a good example of observational drawing.
It isn't though. It's a tacky looking photo-copy

It seems like you have a shallow understanding of what drawing and art in general entails.

Go ahead and start drawing some cartoons, you'll find that you can't get very far drawing from purely imagination, but sometimes it takes hitting that block to truely see the merit in other methods.

Or I guess, you could just stagnate and/or give up

>from purely imagination
You can draw from life but not do realism. The cat picture is a good example. Or what about this pic from Glen Keane?

Not very detailed but didn't stop that guy from working as a pro animator.

Nobody said anything about JUST drawing from imagination. Where was this stated?

I understand the value of drawing from life and observing life. Already good, we're on the same page. It needs to be done.

What I'm asking about is realistic observational drawing with perfect proportions & finely rendered shadows. Why is that valuable for comics or cartooning? What skills are learned through extremely accurate observational drawing that carry over to construction-based cartoons(ie. Star Butterfly is a bunch of spheres and cylinders; how does realism help me do that?)

That's what you get for falling for the wacom meme.
Look on the bright side, at least you'll learn not to drop your pen.

Learn to take care of your posessions anon.

should have went with the chinks

Learning composition will help you a lot. But the easiest way to make 02 stand out would be adding a darker background.

Consider this picture here; although I recall a better example somewhere. Consider the placement of the characters and their poses, not the style. The colors also used help the characters pop especially the villean. I hope you still see this and find assistance in this!

It's not a disability, it's just perceiving yourself to be better at something than you actually are. As long as you realizie that you aren't as great as you think you are and start to set realistic goals accordingly, you can start improving for reals.

>>3116250
It's goes to the other side too, perceiving yourself as not good enough, the typical "I just don't have what it takes!" or "I-I don't have talent!"

>>3116247
the thing about it is though is that it's only about estimating your ability,

so dunning-kruger would be,

'michelangelo's david eh? i've been doing sculpture for 3 weeks now and i think i could pull that off with maybe...2 months more training'

[in 2 months]
'bernini's the rape of proserpina eh? holy shit i will never ever get to that level'

in 2 months he has learned enough about sculpture to understand his own level, you see?

it doesn't mean out sculptor friend can't get better at sculptor or anything, just that he might say some dumb shit.

and it certainly isn't like a delusional thing where you hallucinate that you're art looks better than it does.

I would love to specialize in cartoon animation specialize more in the anime ish area something like what YouTubers would produce for example speedosausage.

Well, theres entertainment everywhere and practically everyone has access to it. Fundies is just a daily exercise that all artists are suppossed to do, like eating right or working out. As far as art and work, its completely unrealistic to expect a good paycheck as a upcoming artist. you have to like creating art before and do it for fun without ever expecting to get paid (unless your hella good or already famous)

I want to work for myself in freelance so that i wont have to deal with bosses anymore and ill have the freedom to make my own hours doing something that i do anyways. its like if you got paid to play video games.
