help
It's pretty self explanatory to me. But, I had to explain it to quite a few people who caught a look at it. Does it not read well? It's just a doodle, sure, but sometimes I think I'm going crazy when it comes to my drawing. I always have to explain the drawing.
What, is that a butt plug?
>>2810184
I would personally guess it's a OC for Sonic or something but those two things aren't that far apart anyway.
not this guy >>2810184
but legit thought it was a buttplug as well
post your +18 art
I start : just finished this, any critique before coloring it ?
here we go!

Alright /ic/ give me the hard truth. How long would it take to go from zero to pic related? Assuming I'm drawing 6-8hrs a day every day including wkends/holidays, and assuming that I mix between life drawing and practicing from imagination.
I don't care about color or much detail. I just want to be able to render clear stylized storyboards in pencil that match a cartoon's artistic style. I'm assuming that if I don't care about learning color then it'll knock off some time since I can just practice in grayscale.
But could a beginner get this gud in 2-3 years practicing every day? Or possibly sooner?
Here's a milder example in the South Park style
I'm only interested in storyboarding and I don't care much about making "pretty" pictures with color and everything. I'm more of a writer but I want to learn art to tell stories visually through boards for animation too
But I feel a bit fake trying to learn art just for this purpose. I'm willing to put in the time but I'm not sure if it's worthwhile or if I'd be a joke of an artist
>>2813592
why not
practice making comics and publish them online, then go for an internship in some animation studio along the way
>>2813592
not to mention that having a clear idea of what you want to do gives you much better chances of making it than 90% of /ic/
First ever sketching of a person. Any advice will be appreciated
O_o amazing are you a artist???

Sticky?
ART, also known as creation and throwing up, among other terms, is the involuntary, forceful expulsion of the contents of one's soul through the hands and sometimes the ass.[1]
ART, can be caused by a wide variety of conditions; it may present as a specific response to ailments like gastritis or poisoning, or as a non-specific sequela of disorders ranging from brain tumors and elevated intracranial pressure to overexposure to ionizing radiation. The feeling that one is about to ART, is called artblock which often precedes, but does not always lead to, ART, Antidepressants are sometimes necessary to suppress artblock and creation. In severe cases, where dearthydration develops, intravenous loomis may be required.
art is different from regurgitation, although the two terms are often used interchangeably. Regurgitation is the return of undigested memes back up the internet to the mouth, without the force and displeasure associated with art. The causes of art and regurgitation are generally different.
vomiting is a diverse range of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing artifacts (barf), expressing the author's imaginative or technical skill, intended to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power.[1][2] In their most general form these activities include the production of works of barf, the criticism of barf, the study of the history of barf, and the aesthetic dissemination of barf

Looks pretty good my man
Okay guys, there has to be somewhere to find at least this one thing online somewhere for free. All I want is the video lessons, so I don't want to pay $700 for his entire lesson plan.
Anyone have any ideas for where I can look?
The /ic/ archives, it's been posted, the full set. If you can't do something as basic as finding it in the archives and need even more spoonfeeding you're Not Gonna Make It.
It's worth the $700.
Just buy it.
The skills you gain are enormous and you get to work with Peter Han (that is if you get in the course, it's always full.)
Any beginner who gets through dynamic sketching would come out as an intermediate to /ic/.
You learn a multitude of skills that let you be able to draw anything, but it's only a foundation, so there's still a lot to build up on it which is why CGMA has other courses as well. Really recommend going through them if you want to be proficient at drawing.

Do you like the impasto technique /ic/?
Post nice impasto artwork if you have any.

It's overly caked shit on canvas.

Post great compositions for learning and reference

roger dean makes some cool stuff

Yeah, he is my favorite landscape artist. I really like the abstract but detailed style of his paintings.
I'd like to take an online courses on art mentors, but I don't know if it really worth it. It's a bit expensive for me so I need your opinion if you already intended an online course on this website.
I think if their is the opportunity for you to attend courses from talented individuals and you can afford it its a no brainer considering that you would save alot of time aimlessly wandering around in the dark web trying to figure shit out yourself because although the web has pretty much all the information you need theirs simply no one to spoon feed you and respond to each and every one of your drawings critiquing you on the way.
tl;dr If you can afford it and the results of others going their seem worth it jump right in otherwise join the rest of us strugglers in the great battle.

I've been on New Masters Academy (I see that many instructors are the same) for 1 month and I think this kind of stuff is just not necessary.
I'm not saying it's bad by any means since there's always something to learn, but it won't get you anywhere further than thorough study of a few good texts.
I've found the multiple instructors on NMA dispersive, many of the lessons were redundant, some instructors were great at drawing but terrible at teaching, some were great at teaching but terrible at putting that into practice for you to see. Also the video format isn't necessarily an advantage, many lessons were full of fluff and it was bothersome to look things up when you needed them. Since there's no textbook to accompany the lessons, you'll end up referencing books anyway.
My 2 cents. If you're short on money, don't worry about these courses unless you're having huge trouble understanding your textbooks.
I bought Vilppu's first Art Mentor's program and participated when it was live and still have the files.
Firstly, you need to have the passion to follow through the lessons with the position of learning and drawing.
If you do buy a lesson, it's on you to make that $300 investment return with your own drawing and digesting of the video content.
The only instructor I've been interested in is Vilppu on both Art Mentors and NMA, this is why I purchased anything from either website and know what to expect from him.
It's apparent even after going through that workshop and studying every so often that my drawings from imagination are still lacking but I've taken on his methodology and do work easier with it.
You can just be a cheapskate and pirate stuff like most people do though; no I won't upload my archive.
I'm an abstract painter. But, I was messing around with watercolors this evening and came up with this.. totally out of my normal area of work. It was fun. How should I develop and improve my abstracted portraiture?
study some LoOmIs. I dunno, looks pretty alright for not having experience painting faces. maybe make the background dark and add some white high lights to the face?
>abstract painter
>lmao lets paint som randum shit XD
>its art!
>>2817049
That's a common pitfall, but not in this case. I have studied art and design for years, and I currently make a living by abstract painting. It's carefully constructed composition, mark making, and color. Far from random shit.
But messing with faces tonight because I'm rolling and feelin it. Cheers.
I'm working on an indie game (A Near Dawn). I generally take a long time with the artwork and this is what it looks like sometimes.
Thoughts, comments, critiques welcome.

looks like he is busting the biggest nut in his life.
I don't often laugh out loud at things I see on the internet, but this is one of those rare cases in which I do.
I can't tell if it's a male or female, but I can tell they're getting some mean head.
What are some good art programs for a digital art novice? I've got a pen display tablet and I'm looking to do concept artwork for a game I'm working on. Free software would be nice, but anything a university student could budget for would work.
>>2815690
>Free software would be nice
Photoshop or SAI
They'll both last you a life time. Krita if you're feeling frisky, but I've never used it myself.
>>2815693
Thank you, I'll try them out.
Medibang is free and seems good
Will I make it?
0/10 looks nothing like reference, have you read Loomis?
