They're awful. Typical "how to" trash, won't teach you anything.

>>2741116
I've never seen them but if the cover is anything to go off of then you probably want to avoid it. Plus weren't they printed quite a while ago?

There are literally hundreds of amazing videos by top of the industry artists that you can get online. You will learn more from a video seeing it all happen with the guy actually talking instead of an awkward step-by-step.

I actually have said book, I got it one Christmas when I first started out. I remember flicking through it a lot as I was learning and there were a few technical tricks I learned here and there but nothing particularly noteworthy. There's practically no emphasis on fundamentals either. Its biggest selling point was some of the artists they had gotten to contribute.

>What inspires you to draw, /ic/?
Society, I suppose.

Pretty pretentious way of saying "other people" but what can you do.

>>2738089
is the city in the background photoshopped in? what the fuck

>>2734453
I'd be down for suggestions on random things to draw. Anything with animals would be cool but i guess its just gonna be

I really hope it won't be nothing but that. If I wanted to draw that I could go to any drawthread on another board. I'm trying to think of some topic to springboard from.
I was thinking maybe master studies but I honestly don't know who would make for a good suggestion.

>>2734453
Doing studies from photos is kinda a waste of time.

Other than that, sure. We've had "study threads" in the past, brainstorming exercises would be alright.

Throwing this out there, one guy draws a sketch to convey a concept and another guy takes that and incorporates it (not necessarily directly uses it) into a rendered piece. Perhaps not a finished work, but just a quick 2 hour doodle or something to mess around with.

Plus a tagging system so you don't have multiple people doing the same sketch. Or at least don't post a sketch unless you've finished a work. Some guidelines to prevent threads from becoming clusterfucks.

Those look pretty nice actually, though I find it funny that it's a digital image meant to look like woodblock prints, and then is printed out normally on paper.

>>2741230

Yeah. Though I imagine that's easier than hand-carving actual woodblock prints and printing them up by hand these days.

>taking the sticky literally
Most of the better artists here all went to some kind of art school where their instructors have never head of loomis.

That should tell you something

Hey mate. I'm in a super good mood today, so I'll let you in on a little secret.
It just takes time. You'll get frustrated at yourself a lot, it'll seem like nothing is sticking.
It is, it just takes a long time for your brain to put this stuff together. I can't tell you how many times I've felt like it just isn't in me, so close to just quitting, and every time I've gotten better.
I'd recommend you watch ctrl+paint on youtube, and if you can get your hands on his whole video series.
Then get a subscription to newmastersacademy, its super cheap and the knowledge you get is amazing.
And then come join Last Artist Standing to get your daily drawing routine going and get better alongside other like minded cucks.

I freezeframe HD porn and draw people getting railed.

They try, but you don't get a whole lot of anatomical stretch with naked people standing in a room.

first time o the internet?

>>2740883
Poor value, poor compositional work, poor general concept being badly articulated.

In the picture you've posted, the silhouette isn't enforced by the value at all and the focal work is spotty as hell, relies on typical noodly arm poor dynamism to carry picture.

As for the art style itself, it's simplifying in ugly directions. The circle head doesn't do much for me at all, reminds me of that funko pop shit.

>>2740883
if that was rendered enough to look like a dreamworks movie I'd like it

>>2740883
I made a similiar thread a while ago OP and would like to know the objective answer as well.

Having an art style that is simple/attractive is good because its something you don't have to put a lot of time and effort in to get lots of people to like it.

It's better to not to draw at all

>How does one create a universally appealing piece?
It's impossible. Nothing in art or taste is completely universal.

>>2740743

Be good at drawing conventionally attractive women and men.

>messy line with zero attention to pixel placement
>random grey smudges with a soft brush set to transfer

0/10 not pixel art
Also post in pixel art thread instead

nigger you stole that from OFF.

>>2740267
This isn't even pixel art.

Also daily reminder to not start threads with your own artwork asking for feedback.

>>2740799
I respect the archer reference but that looks like dogshit, friend.

Op here, just wanna add that it's my first post ever here and I'm tired of not having anyone with who I can share my things

>>2740751
Because nobody is interested in half assed things that are easy to make because ANYONE CAN DO IT.
