What did your future boss see, /ic/ ?
>>2652151
A picture of my cock cause I ain't workin for nobody but myself.
>>2652151
Why would Hank be accepting an art portfolio from Peggy?
>>2652151
Presumeably my best piece.
Could someone, from the 28 already existing /ic/ discord groups, give me an invitation link? I'm looking for more draw friends.
Or maybe someone wants to create a new one, idk
>>2651958
It's not worth it, go to the las thread and bring it back to life.
>>2651958
I really need it too.
Hi, I seem to have misplaced my tablet pen? Where is it? Thank you.
>>2651137
Check your butthole.
>>2651137
It's usually off to the side of my keyboard somewhere, or between the keyboard and monitor, but I'm assuming you checked there already.
Did it fall between the desk and the wall? I'm sure you're not happy about moving the desk, but it's the most likely place.
Or, you know, check your pockets.
>>2651137
>check pocket
>floor usually rolls under the seat.
>across the room. length depends on your anger problems.
> rolled behind monitor.

What are the most apparent problems with this piece? Too many details/highlighted things?
>>2647328
Biggest problem is the design really. No amount of painting can save a bad design.
>>2647328
I think the lower part of the dress should have more folds cause it looks plastic
What are the steps to create a convincing illustration/Concept Art ?
I like to draw but I can't ever think of an acutally good idea ...
1. git gud
2. shitpost
3. ???
4. Profit!!
>>2652037
first of all, you need to learn the differences between concept art and illustrations
Has everything of quality been said and we are entering a phase of post-creationism?

No. What are you, stupid?
You just want your le 4chan internet 10,000 layers of irony to be relevant to real life because memeing is the only thing youre remotely good at you NEET trash
how to get immersed into the art scene at my state uni? Im going to a school that may be one of the best art schools in the state. Im not an art major right now but may make it a second major.
>>2651917
If you don't enjoy art, then don't fucking do it.
>>2651921
I do. I practice everyday. I want to step up the amount of time i practice too. I guess this is more of a social question than art question tho.
So my tablet broke. It was an Intuos Pro Medium by Wacom and the USB port is loose when I plug the cord in.
I'm looking for a new tablet, one preferably like like the Wacom Companion 2. A tablet with a fully functioning computer for drawing. Many of the tablet companies are underground and hard to find. Help is greatly appreciated.
Also a screen resolution of 1920x1080 and the ability to be used as a drawing monitor would be great.
Though it's fine if one with that resolution simply isn't around.
>>2651697
just replace the cable
its a mini usb to usb
>>2651907
It's not the cable that's the problem, it's the actual port on the device. I've used another cable that worked with other devices flawlessly but not not with the wacom. it just jiggles around mane
I'm a student, I work 4 days out of the week, I go to the gym, my first semester with a lab
Can anyone recommend a small drawing pad that can just fit in a pocket that won't break immediately or is it even worth the trouble?
>>2648663
It's called a pencil and paper.
>>2648668
I don't have a surface to draw on, I mostly work outside
>>2648672
get a moleskin or similar?
but if you want to waste money then get one of those note tablets
Hello /ic/!
I was just wandering, what are some good books for someone who wants to learn how to draw better, make comics, cartoons and possibly even make animations?
and also who are good artist and animators, to follow, including any drawing tutorials i can find on youtube?
Check the 'one-stop begginer's guide' in the sticky, pal.
>>2648571
got any other advice, a cook doesn't learn every recipe from one cook book or even one pallet of cooks
>>2648571
Ok then thanks!
Rate my work /ic/
>>2646752
Colors are nice. I have to say I like it. 10/10. Good job.
>>2646752
shit, post in beginner thread
i really like the shading on the upper lip, how long did that take you?
So I went to art school for a year and dropped out.
May people will say good things about art school but I think this picture illustrates what art school was like for me.
This is a photo from where I studied.
This is a second year art student's assessment work.
Most of the students there spent more time talking about drugs, feminism being vegan and how evil capitalism is than actually discussing art work.
>>2627901
Looks like you went to one of the many sad "art" schools that are really just a sham.
>>2627901
Would fuck
By virtue of being an artist it's easy to fall into the special snowflake trap.
It becomes a "Us free thinking intellectuals smart enough to not have a 9-5" vs the common folk who are inherrently sheep in the eyes of these supposed goats.
I'm probably like this in many ways but the world is broken and every last one is juat trying their best to survive. Vegan or capitalist.
Maybe if those artists spent less time trying to drip feed the poles ice water to stop global warming their art would be worth buying... That would mean that they are infact supportinng a capialistic economy. Perhaps they could donate the proceedes to a middle class home to help the economy...
Just finished this for a friend, first primarily digital piece I've ever made for a client.
Thoughts?
And general album artwork thread
>>2651729
Oh and these guys

>>2651732
They were for a different band

How is this possible from changing that much after 2011???
>start treating hair as mass instead of a symbol in a year
>omg
>such change
>much impossible
kys
draw 4 hours a day for a year and watch how much quicker you'll improve than them dude.
its not hard just stop being lazy
It's called focusing on rendering instead of anatomy.
