next year, I SWEAR D:

Still drawing everyday

some improvement but still literally 100% garbage

Hi friend,

Could you elaborate on what exactly you're having issues with? And what you're trying to make?

Is it just you have trouble drawing the straight lines without a ruler? Or just over all construction(vanishing points and all)

There's multiple ways to get there free hand or "kinda" free hand.

I suggest making a brewers grid. Once you've made it you can put it under another sheet of see through paper (like marker paper) and construct from there.

If you plan on making a building or object digitally. I suggest scanning in your image you think is wonky, then finding the vanishing points on your horizon line. You'll see how off you were and can adjust them with the line tool.

It's also a good way to check yourself.

All and all practice drawing boxes with the vanishing points on the page and not off of it (as don't draw to imaginary vanishing points)

just use clip studio paint, it's sai's one san

>>2852047
i know that it's better but it's about the feeling

i really like the sai "painting... experience..?"

>>2852050
You can get brushes that emulate sai in csp. Sai can pretty much be considered the "have you seen me" younger brother on your milk carton. Go on my child, csp is wating for you to fly into her squishy bosom.

People lack the understand of aesthetics

They do it because it's sexy.

How do you deal with burnout?

Who is Brian? Is he some kind of poormans nosebro?

Oh boy Oh boy I can listen to you while doing my laundry! What a joy!

I really don't like Bacon and most of his contemporaries but yeah, this one is really unsettling. Also Bacon was royally fucked in the head. He had a really fucked up slave/master relationship with his bf.

Bacon is great, and it takes a special eye to understand his work. People get caught up in aesthetics all the time and don't bother to look at the context of the artworks. One artist I find particularly unsettling is Jenny Saville, anything she does is quite grotesque and disturbing. Pic related

This artist is really cool. She designed the album cover for MSP's The Holy Bible right?

Sycra

>>2847599
Do you realize Sycra has over a decade of drawing with tutors and all the jazz.

Firez started on 2013 at 27/28, all by himself and barely has any time to draw, on top of living in a shithole

>>2847599
If I had to choose between them and kill one, I'd kill Sycra and put him out of his fucking misery.

we draw to improve, not to fish for likes

There are only a few reasons to even try learning to reproduce styles of other artists fully.

1) You're a full time animator/comic artist assistant/illustrator/etc who has to be able to produce images exactly as dictated, not as you prefer in your own style.

Actually that's it.

Sure you can do this for fun, but it doesn't really do anything for you. Well, it's practice at least.

However those "challenges" as the other duder says, are 90% like bait and bandwagoning and not done for the sake of improving or even for "fun".

yaah mann like its so fun XDDDDDDD

A curved 24" 1080p monitor is completely retarded.
The argument for curved monitors is that they're supposed to compensate for viewing distortion when you're sitting right in front of a large ultrawide, but even that's debatable. In a small, low resolution monitor like this it's most likely detrimental. Other than that it's a good monitor, pricy for 1080p but it's quantum dot.

As for 'needing' a gaymin monitor for painting, stop being retarded. A monitor being 100th of a second slower doesn't make it unresponsive or blurry. Maybe try one that isn't a piece of shit. Smaller resolutions also do not make your painting faster. Photoshop is not a video game. If your system is bad enough that 1440p causes Windows to lag you need to upgrade to something that isn't 10+ years old.

Is pic related your work? It's decent enough for you to get some work. It's weird, I've seen a lot of mediocre people get plenty of work and lots of very talented people struggle.

>>2851082

>>2851082
Yeah. I didn't mention, but I offer commissions to the specialty fetish crowd since everyone says they have fat wallets.

While I'm not squeamish and I don't really mind any of it, I can't say I'm proud of myself.

>>2851090
It is. I don't think I'm too bad, I can do a more regular style pretty well, too, but I dunno, I don't even know what I'm doing wrong, man.
Lots of people are better than me, sure, but there's also a ton of people who are meh or even outright crap get lots of attention and I just don't get it.

(photo)realism.

>>2849847

Serious question. Are you blind? That's a cartoonish style.

>>2849847
Eh, it's cel-shaded, so to me it seems a little closer to impressionism (at least the landscape, anyway).
