Smoke weed, nigga, it'll help. Or take a long, long fucking break, and forget to pick up drawing for the next 6 years; and wake up one day realizing that you draw like a 12-year-old still, and that your dream of becoming an artist is postponed until an unknown date (maybe that date is 'never') because you sat on your ass doing jackshit, thinking you'll get accepted into CalArts on giddy hope alone (like a protagonist of a bad anime); and maybe that promise you made to your dying father will never be fulfilled, that you will fulfill his failed dream of becoming a cartoonist like his father before him; maybe you really are the disapointment you feel you are. And when your 4-year-old cousin was dying of cancer and you promised to turn him into a cartoon character? Never going to happen, because you are a lazy cunt that nearly flunked out of high school and never practised drawing, and are now trying to wing it through a non-descript art school even though you didn't pass the admission exam (and the only reason you got accepted was because they needed to fill space; they outright told you that).
That's my experience experience, at least. This advice works for me.

Is it better to practice topic by topic :
for example start with perspective , when it's all done , start anatomy then when it's done start environmental design , etc
or is it better to have a schedule , for example
Monday : perspective
Tuesday : Anatomy
Wednesday : Coloring
etc
What is your thought ?

by studying what you suck at?? art isnt like math or sciences
>>
>>2824138
I suck at a lot of things. I'm no beginner though although I need to polish my fundamentals.
I have only 2 hours a day after uni. And I'm interested in drawing pin ups only.
So should I stick to only anatomy / figure drawing and then coloring ? And perspective later ?
>>
>>2824145
Work on your drawing basics, learn how to draw basic forms and learn how to shade basic forms, once you have a good grasp on that tackle figure drawing

Well realy not bad for yourself.
But I have a feeling you could have drawn and practiced much more in that year. Am I right ?
I'm sure another two years and you'll be pro

add a "back to main page" link at the top of every page as well.
otherwise it sucks (obviously)
>>
>>2825241
drop the steam and have some works displayed on your main page
When drawing this I felt like I'm doing something wrong here I don't know what can someone tell me what's wrong with this picture?
Because I can tell its either the arms or the body. Need a little critique here.

is drawing considered an intellectual hobby like reading?
can I write it down in a CV and dont get questioned about it?

Depends on who is doing the considering.
Your CV should only consist of things that are relevant for the job you're applying for anyway. No one's gonna care if you put down that you draw when you're applying for a summer job at Wal Mart.
Also don't do hobbies to impress others, do them because they are fun to you. You'll be happier for it.

I put mine in my resume. They never ask for proof and it can be put in as novelty.
For things like that it's really about packaging.
For example, visual acuity, your knowledge of photoshop, accuracy, knowledge of drawing tablets can be of "value"
>>
>>2816133
People will judge how intelligent you are by what comes out of your mouth. Drawing well might cause some "interest" if any, but if they think you are an idiot it won't help you unless you are famous.You can write anything into your CV if you are able to accept the consequences. And if you put drawing in your vita why would they question you about it if it isn't a required skill of the position.

People criticize my artwork in my comic all the time.
I don't listen to them because they're probably cis, but I know this site has an lgbt board so I trust your opinions.
What can I do to make my art look better? Or is it good as is?

Pick a subject matter less toxic and your art will improve. Otherwise you'll forever have the brain of a 15-year old with these kinds of opinions.
Seriously, I don't know how people think wanting to mutilate themselves to the point of changing gender "because they feel trapped" is not a mental illness but they see a guy who wants to get all the plastic surgery in the world to become a dragon "because he feels trapped' and then think, "Wow, he's crazy".
It's the same goddamn thing. "Feeling trapped" means it's a feeling means it's a brain problem, not an actual problem.

Every good artist has good hand control. Hand control is the only factor which is beyond us. You can't train it unless you have a double Palmaris Longus Muscle. Don't believe me? Ask your favorite artist whoever it may be.
Glenn Vilppu has a double palmaris, so does Proko and Sycra. Glenn's the OP pic. I have it too, and so does everyone who is better than at least 50% of i/c.
It has become very clear that we've mis-identified the spark as something within us, but it's clear our body is the real limit.
So I ask you I/C. Do you have it? Do you have the ligameme?

So that's what the ligameme?
I waited years just to find that out?
And that I have it? That's it?
Kind of disappointing really. Doesn't change my life much.

Please post a piece from your favourite "classical" artist!
Really just looking for new pieces to do master studies from (for colour/comp/rendering mostly) but there's too much variety... Hard mode: no Sargent allowed ;D
(Personal fave is the "Roses of Heliogabalus" by Lawrence Alma-Tadema, it looks like a mess but the detailing is amazing!)

Hey guys, so I recently became quite enthralled with the concept of intentionally bad art. Things like the "Sweet Bro And Hella Jeff" comic have inspired me to try and make some myself.
I have a few pieces made that I think are pretty horrifying, but I figured I may as well see if the power of 4chan can help me make them even worse?
So, yeah.Look at the pic I posted and tell me if you see any way I could make it worse. Remember, I don't want it to just LOOK bad, I want it to rend the soul of anyone looking at it, so telling me to just layer on a ton of shitty filters so that you can't even tell what's going on isn't really all that helpful.
