Anyone record their artwork?
I want to make some time-lapse videos of my drawing but the webcam I have is awful. Do I really need to buy a big expensive DSLR to get nice quality on a piece of paper just a couple feet away?
A DSLR isn't going to do shit for you if you have bad lighting. Get some cheap lights and a softbox and if you have even a halfway decent camera it'll look a whole lot better.
Get good lighting and any camera that can into 1080p and have manual focus.
>>2842111
I'd say start with your cellphone timelapse if you have that. Start at the bottom so you have somewhere to go.

No, why would anyone take lessons from someone who can't draw worth a shit?
Just seeing what /ic has to say about it
>Steam having drawing lesson

Tutorials
That is not a tutorial
This should be a brush sharing thread
>>2830835
barf
>>2830835
Not really a tutorial but I appreciate these anyway
Does 90% of the quality of your work depends on your research and use of reference?
I think so.
>>2842754
No, that's not even 10%, probably at best 5%.
The rest is knowing how to create a good piece of art.
>>2842757
the knowledge comes in research.
>>2842759
No, some knowledge comes in the form of research.
I just told you it's no more than 5%.
The rest is already knowing how to create a good piece of art.
>be me
> go to e621.com
cuz why not?
> be disgusted by the porn, yet cant look aways because some artist are god tier.
How will we even be able to compete?
>>2840617
Teach like Proko
ya' gonna let some fuckin' furries trump you when it comes to art?
work hard. fight.
>>2840617
what the fuck is that website?
I might be coming across as an asshole but then again you guys are dicks too. Anyway, I just don't get why people on here suck so much despite all the efforts they put in. I browse through the art sharing threads and despite all these fundamental practices people put in , they still suck.
Which leads me to my next question, are some folks just artistically challenged? I mean I never studied "properly" I just draw every now and then and yet i'm better than most of the trash that shows up on this board.
Included some doodles of mine, where i'm not even trying.
but your doodles are trash
kys and btfo
Seems like you fit right into the artistically challenged crowd of /ic/
>>2835532
I have a feeling this isn't even your art and just another troll thread because let's face it, nobody has the balls to fling shit on here making their own thread with their own art unless they are illistat or however you spell his gay name.
guys
i have a challenge for you
open your favorite painting in ps, ruin it a little bit, and then repaint it !
i dont have ps
>>2842615
should've mentioned "or any other software"
still, you got the idea
>>2842613
Great thread.
Tried not just to repaint but also to add my own vision.
Rate.
I've got the talent, the know how, and the materials
I just don't know how to apply myself and make something cohesive that isn't just an image on a blank background.
Suggestions?
Make the decision whether you're going to spend the rest of your life pissing about or not. If it's worth doing, it's worth doing properly.
>>2842558
This is true
>>2842557
Create the things you wish existed
>procrastinatin
>too poor/socially anxious/etc to take classes
>savin tutorials and books but never use them
>spendin more time saving ref images than drawing
/NGMI/ GENERAL
share your horrible art, see if you belong
>>2842275
Go fuck yourself you lazy piece of shit.
can someone explain to me what "ngmi" stands for?
I've lost most of my accounts on drawing pages
And I just wanted to post this somewhere.
spare us
it'll be lost in a week anyway
>>2842509
Go away
Don't.
Would you rate her art as beginner, intermediate, or manga industry level?
>>2842377
http://boywhofell.com/
link to her comic
>>2842377
i rate it your mom
>>2842377
I looked at a few of the recent pages and a few of the first pages. I've definitely seen worse from professional manga artists, but that's a pretty low bar. It's hard to tell her skill level from the comic alone, because work like that requires some shortcuts in order to produce enough content each week. That said, I would rank her an intermediate artist.
Last thread: >>2832524
This thread is meant for artists who might want to try to make anime works in-between their studies. It is strongly recommended that you use this thread in conjunction with learning the elements and fundamentals of art. You can also discuss the visual elements of various professional artists as well if you keep it relatively articulate and civil.
Submit your drawings, receive feedback or critique others! Share your knowledge and remember to thank those who've critiqued or red-lined your drawings. Most importantly, have fun!

>>2836785
do you make art?
>>2836880
yes
>had to wipe my computer and reinstall everything
>lost my art folder
Feela bad man. Im terrible at art, but it still feels bad to have lost what little i had made.
>>2841616
make more you fucking crybaby. In 2 years you won't even care.
I never save anything or make anything worth saving

>>2841640
I don't have any issues with erasing an entire drawing and starting over even I spent hours on it, but I save stuff just to look at it in the future. Its good to do and idc what anyone says
/hey/ ic
ever feel like you fucked up?
yeah I fell for the stem meme too, read my rant for a bit
by the time I finish my course, i'll be 23 and just as useless as when I enrolled, thanks- hopes and dreams of illustration shattered
meanwhile my inspirations, aged 22- already moved to japan to study art, now fluent, and getting more done, drawing/painting/animating more and improving every single day.
how do I get to the same level of success? how do I avoid the white-collar fate?
should I dropout before my liabilities fuck me over?
Drawing is the only passion I have and I wish I'd realised it sooner- I would want nothing more in life than to be in the same position, content with living low and training as an art hermit.
am I romanticizing the idea? Right now, I'm on a one way road to some specialized employment making someone elses' success- and there won't be time for freedom, travel and hobbies, only work and keeping face with normies
in this case I don't see myself ever having time for art until I'm 65 and retired with severe arthritis/parkinsons/dementia- and by then it's too fuuuuuuuuking late goddamn
and if I don't land a job, then I should've just pursued art in the first place with the money equivalent to my uni loan
...
...
I should act now before I self-fulfill this prophecy. I really think I fucked up after enrolling in stem. I rationalised it at the time, thinking my grades would be a waste in art, feeling indebted to succeed for my parents, thinking I'd rather be rich than anything
I really thought that I could fit in some drawing mileage in the time off, but it's really not enough to make anything beyond casual hobbyist art.
what would ic do in this case? aside from suicide ofc
desperately trying to steer my aerospace engineering into something art related and trying to find engineering internships in any art-relevant countries for a chance in formal art education
>>2834901
Do it and see how far you get, it's not like you can't go back to school. Not like you won't being to question your decision a month or so in anyways. Something like
>oh maybe I was wrong after, if I finished the course at least I could get money and rest while doing art for fun on the side instead of all of this hard work trying to git gud
>by the time I finish my course, i'll be 23 and just as useless as when I enrolled, thanks- hopes and dreams of illustration shattered
meanwhile my inspirations, aged 22- already >moved to japan to study art, now fluent, and getting more done, drawing/painting/animating more and improving every single day.
>this is literally me i've been think this since the fist year of join this course i have 2 years left .
