Not a challenge.

I have a stronk addiction to porn. Fapping stops me from practicing, having fun, studying, having a life... and I really want to stop.

It's not like "lol stop touching your dick". If it were so easy, I wouldn't be aware that fapping is ruining my life.

I have already installed Leechblox and I'm out of all porn sites I know, 4chan boards included.

I was wondering if any of you feel like you spend too much time masturbating, and how you deal with it as an artist and when your refs folder is 94.56% PORN.

tl;dr

>Be me
>Porn addicted
>Can't focus on drawing
>Want to stop
>What do?

Yeah, that's a plan.

Better than my previous plan of self-inducing me penis panic.

I do this. Usually I at least spend an hour drawing from reference and then from imagination.

Newfag to drawing here. Do you think my skills will get better by just taking requests in drawthreads or should I devote my time to focusing on learning techniques? Will I get better by just practicing in general or does it matter how you practice?

Pic related, my work colorized by someone on a /co/ drawthread (it was a pretty rough sketch)

Newfag here, I think you can just take requests. I have been drawing random shit for several years and feel like I have seen improvement. Might be quicker, but not necessary.

Since the places that you could get them got in trouble for sharing them, your only hope is to ask some anon that might have downloaded them when they were still available.

So, a shoot in the dark.

>>2662007

Oh I have a sub It's just about to cancel and I need the vids for offline viewing before Bobby Jew asks for more money.

I'm 20 years old and want to start drawing. Am I too late? Can I ever achieve something like pic related? Do I have to get good at traditional art first or what? If so what medium should I focus on at the beginning, pencils, acrylic? When should I start practicing digital art?

Sorry for retarded questions, I just don't know what to do besides what sticky has told me.

> Am I too late?
Yes. If you ask yourself this question you are too late. The only way to make it is to NOT GIVE A FUCK AND GO FOR IT. Seems like you're already priming yourself for excuses and failure, so just give up now and save yourself some time.

>Can I achieve something like pic related?
Yes you can, If you put in time and effort to hone your skills.

You've gotten the two most helpful responses yer gonna get....
>>2658616
100% correct
>>2658617
Also 100% correct

The choice is yours. Pick your path anon.

Why isn't this god-tier book recommended more? It should be one of the main books recommended in the sticky, probably right after keys to drawing and perspective made easy. It clears up ALL misconceptions about observational drawing vs constructive drawing that plague this board so heavily. It's short, easy to read, instructive, no nonsense and straight to the fucking point about why constructive drawing is essential for true mastery.

It's far superior to Loomis, who gets you practicing construction with boring, retarded le 1930s blook balls without actually explaining the concept behind its importance.

Next time someone displays a complete lack of understanding of why both constructive and observational drawing are needed the one true answer should ring out like a mighty clarion call:

Needs more Hale.

Here's my first piece of pixel art I sat down and started making - its a gif showing the different layers (and final).

it's a ship. It looks like a ship. I think you set your goal and got it down. Nice.

Now go make more.

Also there's a thread for pixel art if you wanna post in there. I say try to make as much stuff as you can, then post in there. Maybe try to ask for specific feedback regarding the pixel art technique or something.

Hi I'm a painter and i don't know what to describe my art style as. Please help me name the style, because i'm trying to sell art for the first time and need a brief description of my art style for this website I'm making. I dont know where else to ask this question other than here because i dont know how to use reddit or where else i can find people that might be able to help me out, if you can thatd be super amazing!! thankyouu

Is there a way to "reset" your brain on your own personal style? If I work hard enough on relearning fundamentals and studying as if I'm a young beginner again, can I change the way I think about making art or is your style something you're permanently "stuck" with. Has anyone here had experience with this?

You'll always have your own personal style you tend to draw in, but you can develop separate "styles" for individual projects.

These style choices will more likely be more intellectual choices than instinctual ones.

I myself am a bit of a chameleon, as I've never really wanted to have a "style" per se.

messy brushwork my dude!! i think your painting skills are too far ahead of your drawing skills, which is leading to unpolished and unsure strokes. nice colours and values tho.

So everyone on /ic/ is always talking about making it, and although I know it's just another meme, how does one actually make it?

Is "making it" becoming rich and famous off your art, is it being at the top of art skill, or is it finally making your dream project come true?


What does making it mean to you, /ic/?

When I can make anything I want (think about).

For now it's just stumbling in the dark, trying to figure out *how* to do something. Whether that's drawing a figure in the right proportion, an object at the right perspective, or just a scene with the right mood. I *know* what I want, but I just can't *see* it clearly in my mind, and as a result I can't draw it.
>>
>>2657682
"Making it" is the opposite of shitposting and attention whoring on the internet instead of actually drawing.

"Making it" is not acting like some brat millennial that needs social reassurance for every trivial fucking matter that comes up

"Making it" is OP becoming an hero

This, but also being able to do it for a living and being in a comfortable place economically. I do believe they are somewhat connected at least.

Why or why not?

Can vaporwave be represented in the style of Dada collages? Are there examples of this?

What art-form most closely resembles or describes the vaporwave aesthetic?
11 posts and 4 images submitted.
>>
Possibly. The dadaist collage aesthetic are in music circles mostly associated with punk DIY fanzines and flyers I think. You could cut up a bunch of 80's and 90's ads for video games and sneakers and go from there I guess. The vaporwave aesthetics is more like a modern interpretation or even a caricature of those decades. Build upon that and try it yourself.
>>
>>2657604
do you think the message or concept of a vaporwave based collage will be undermined if the images are black and white?
>>
Just try it, it's the only way you really know.

Post your current drawing here and give constructive critique to others!
Please make sure your posted image is clear, DOWNSIZED TO AROUND 1000 PIXELS WIDE, ROTATED TO THE CORRECT ORIENTATION, and that any unused space is cropped.
If you want critique on a drawing from the previous thread, you can delete it there and repost in this one and then hug a kitten for good luck.
