Hard round can do almost anything. If you want to go beyond that you can add in a soft round and maybe a chalk brush for some texture. That's all you really need. Of course if you want specific looks like fake oil brushstrokes you can use more but they're not really needed to make a good image. Artists like Craig Mullins use mostly the default brushes that come with photoshop. I've seen him use a chain brush to paint leaves, and I've seen Michael Komarck use a grass brush to paint clouds. You can use whatever.

You can do anything with the default brushes, but how kuch time do you want to spend doing it? They're just tools. Mostly made to save time and get a specific style/look without adding tiny details with a 1px hard brush.

i only use round brush, with varying opacity, flow, hardness. for some styles it works well with textured brushes, like simon stålenhag, but its not for me, use what feels best

No, because noses literally don't have sexual dimorphism.

I get you man. I've studied my basics for 2 years without doing much comic practice and guess what? I suck at making comics. You get good at what you do. Make like 1 comic page a week and study your fundamentals on the rest of the days

If the German person you're trying to talk to understands you what's the problem?

How do you suppose one is to build a robust visual memory without first drawing numerous subjects from reference? Faggot. Go cry and shitpost. Maybe you can make edgy art out your tears and semen.

what is with /ic/ and i just can't seem to escape its twisted allure?

Fucking sick of whiners like you.

If you hate /ic/ fucking leave instead of crying about how mean everyone is.

>>3109331

It's edgy angst horse crap. Or rather, it appears to be.

You need to do some research before you blindly March people into one another cause some entity told you to hate one another.

You are a fool. You think yourself any less a whore? For all the purity of your art, you still sell yourself, just as we do. At least our prostitution wears an honest face.

Speaking as a current student.

>was it a good environment to learn
It's a great environment full of people who show up because they want to show up and not because their parents want them to get a degree as an accountant or a lawyer.

The hours are far more conducive to developing both physical needs as well as mental ones - doing art work to the "classical standards" takes time and you need to come to terms with it. You get over the frustration through experience.

Teachers/Instructors are very knowledgeable and do lots of individual demonstrations and C&Cs.

>is their method a good way to learn to draw

It's a good method to learn to draw, learn to see, learn to correct yourself and a host of other things.

>I am planning to go through the same regiment although on my own, because I can't pay for a school. Is it worth the time and dedication?

You will find it hard to self-correct, and there's discipline and other issues involved especially if you work better in a setting that you associate only with doing work.

My honest advice would be to try to get a job, save up enough money for 2-3 years of atelier, and then show up and grind through it.

Failing that, see if you can forage enough money for one month of Watts Atelier ($199 i think?) or New Masters Academy ($99) and a 1TB hard drive, and just rip as many videos as you can.

There are also a lot of books that can guide you through doing things in the "classical" way. You can find some of these in the Art Books thread:

https://www.amazon.com/Classical-Drawing-Atelier-Contemporary-Traditional/dp/0823006573/

https://www.amazon.com/Cast-Drawing-Using-Sight-Size-Approach/dp/0980045401/

And so on and so forth.
