That's not surrealism. It can be described as surreal or surrealistic, but it has nothing to do witht the art movement of surrealism.

gets bigger for 5 minutes

no. You might be ever so slightly better than your peers who are just starting out if you've built related skills doing something else (photography can give you a solid sense of composition, anatomy classes will give you a basic understanding of anatomy) but the act of drawing itself is really fucking hard, and the only way to get "good" is by actively pushing yourself to be better, practicing regularly, and learning from people who are better than you. none of the people in the inspo threads got there by accident.

Now I'm just using procreate, but it's kinda limiting me so I might go back to Clip Paint Studio to finish my pieces. Anyway it's so comfortable to just use an Ipad that I'll have a hard time going back to the Intuos + PC.

>>3102570
i've never tried ipad, but it seems hard to me what with the lack of hotkeys

>>3102567
I use Sai as well, everything else is too complicated

how retarded are you that you can't identify if something is good advice by yourself

You're kidding right? Yes it's a meme.

His books are bad for beginners and outdated

This looks bad.

It's a round brush. And there are lots of artists who use it. Pic related is Kimbum.

Photoshop.
If you're looking for a free and open-source program try Krita.

use as many tags as possible

comprehensive guide on how to use tumblr:
1. follow blogs that you can pull information from
2. use said information to improve

that's it. if you're not getting attention, it's because you suck at whatever you're doing and you're not good enough for whatever market you're trying to enter.

Also do stuff that's popular. Normally don't get too many notes (~25 per image) but did a Ragnarok Online pic with that tag and it got over 150 likes/shares/whatevers. Not sure if that's any good since I mostly post on (and prefer) Pixiv but it seems popular shit makes a difference.

Probably just layering jagged digital brushes at varied opacities. Looks like shit imo.

I was trying to take a break from the meme wars and just appreciate a cool piece. I'm sorry, master. Next time I'll make sure to name the big evil stinky jewy bears.

You don't enjoy making comics then

Why the fuck is this a question?

>>3103360
Same, when writing i can explore my ideas as soon as they come up, when drawing i can devote what little i know to do the best i can put out. Since drawing comics puts constraints to thevthings i enjoy fron two diferent media it just not as enjoyable.

So? Just make illustrations then and write something for them. Or do these two things seperate.
I for one enjoy making comics, I like the whole progress.

Big muscular guy. Make it hot.

Why a guy? most of this board draws cowtit anime chicks. It's so bad that when there are challenges to draw a guy anons genderbend him.

please, i want to see this. you don't have to put a ton of polish in it OP but don't half-ass it, this could be a really good thread.

I'd like to see you draw a skull, then add to it to make it a face. don't gotta be super technical about it, i like to make very very loose skull shapes (i dont even bother with the teeth or the cracks, just tryina grasp that 3d form) and then add major facial features on top.

>>3102461
i'd say red

blood orange

>>3102461
It's red-orange

Kinda retarded question, since you can be earning 200 USD per month and if you live in a shithole country with weak currency its gonna be enough to "live off of art". And with personal commissions you can be literally drawing stick figures and still find clients.

Me? I'm just kidding, it's all of you beneath me and my outstanding skills.

enough is whatever you've found to work. some make a living pouring paint over a spinning canvas by convincing retards it's art. some study their entire lives and never sell anything. marketing skill is all you need for money and any artistic skill you have will be detrimental to this effort.

>>3103398
You start OP.

>>3103416
Post your work.
