it is difficult for me to tell if those artists are skilled or not. I don't see a tiny bit of anything I have learned in the books in their work, but it is so pleasant to watch. what is it?
are they just good animators but bad at anything else? I think I have seem other non animated stuff that gives me the same feeling but I'm not sure. I think that if you are a good animator and have expressive drawings you can get away with so much shit.

The illustration meme has consumed you
Not everything can be found in books, most of your 'learning' will be done with experience
There IS some value and aesthetics to be found experimenting and trying out abstract stuff

You gotta learn the rules to break the rules, Anon-kun. Always try experimenting, even if you think it's going to come out like shit.

I was thinking of selling for $15 but what do you guys think it's worth? It's my own art

Anyway, it means eternity. It's just a more complicated version of an ouroboros.

Why does everyone seem to have such a hard-on for Marko Djurdjevic?
I mean sure he's decent but he hardly improved over the years and he's quite limited in his designs. Also he appears to suffer from delusions of grandeur nowadays. Is it just his rockstar attitude?

Great sense of design, good shape language, excellent pencil work, solid dynamism. Plus he only works from memory. Yeah, he can't paint as well as some of his collegues, so what? Get a grip

That's not high res, are you blind? It's pixelated as hell.
All the previews they posted were large but low quality.

I just realized I can't visualize. When I draw I build everything proceduraly, deducing how things should look like. But I just can't create an image in my head.
Are there any sort of exercises to increase visualization powers?

i'm 19 and i want to draw stuff like pic related, this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfbNS_GKhPw, cute pixiv girls, and doujin illustrations in 4 years (basically, when i leave college [studying cs, i.e. totally unrelated])
how many hours a day do you think i'll have to put in? is it realistic for 4 years? is it too late if i never took art classes since i was a baby?
i've designed some stuff for school that my teachers and friends thought were cool, but i'm guessing that means jack shit here for drawing figures anyway

Why do white people want to draw asian culture so much when they aren't asian? If that's what you want to do then 4 years is about right if you put in at least 5 hours a day.

Hey /ic/
Is there an essentials list of documentaries or books about art history or noteworthy artists?

Not really. Art history is so too broad to really encompass in any "best of" list, best thing to do is probably find an abbreviated history of the eras and movements like:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_art
And find out what you like, then look deeper into those topics.

>>2631533
not sure about what qualifies as noteworthy, but here's some stuff that i think i took something of value from watching.

Looks great. I used to do this kind of art, but with ink or graphite mostly. What exactly did you use? Those burnt charcoal sticks?
>>
That looks really cool. A lil' question - graphite is made of carbon dust and clay, charcoal is anaerobically burnt wood ... and a carbon pencil is - what exactly? My retarded language uses the same name for both tools.
Can anyone tell me the name of this piece or where it comes from?
Please excuse me if this is the wrong board

>Stephen Silver - Why I Can't Support CTN EXPO Anymore
Any of you guys been to CTN expo in Burbank, CA? I went there last year and it was really expensive. The "fast passes" were pricey and weren't really fast at all. I still had to wait in line for an hour and a half for panels. It was my first time there but what I've heard from my peers is that it's a good place to network.

Burbank-type artists, especially animators, are disgusting. Their questions when you first meet them shows that they judge you based on how useful you are to them as a network.
