>go outside and abandon my work to draw
>go on /s/ at work
You trying to get me promoted?

>>2560873

>drawing at work

You just promoted yourself. Also face it, nobody will care about your night guard at the parking lot job.

Wait, delete this I think it breaks the rules.

>>2610894
Are you talking to yourself? If it breaks the rules the mods would delete it. If you don't want it up anymore then you delete it.

There are cringe threads all the time but as everyone else I've never actually read the rules

I pity the fool that knows nothing about the awesomeness of Terry Bogard yet all of the lame antics of Ash Ketchum

what the shit. what's that blue shit on her shoulder. what is that face. you can literally see the clipping between the layers.

what the fuck

ryky is fucking cancer. fucking hate this lazy cunt.
its not just that hes a bad artist, he manages to convince normies that hes awesome with how many shiny sparkle colors he uses. fucking pisses me off.
you can see in his brushstrokes that he doesnt give a fuck. its like he doesnt even enjoy drawing.

Well something that does not look like anything you know of is Alien. When it comes to good looking designs however you need to take inspiration from nature or else our dumb little monkey brains dont know what they're looking at.

The way I see it is that most good alien designs are really bizarre combinations between a few organisms while trying to keep a general theme going.

The Kaiju from Pacific Rim for example usually carry traits found in fish, sharks and whales because they come from the sea, the Otachi for example (pic related) has taken great inspiration from a bat with the front legs/wings and the nose. It also features a "double-horn" found in ancient rhinoceros species though it is entirely possible it was just added because there wasnt enough clutter around the nose. The tail of the beast resembles that of a fish's skeleton presumably to give it an exoskeleton look for added toughness.

On the flipside you have H.R Giegers stuff (Alien trilogy) which in my opinion is a type of design thats made to look offputting or even horrific with the fusion between organic and mechanical while still trying to keep it looking like it's one living organism.

As a sidenote: Asymmetry is generally a bad idea, most people use asymmetry to signify mutations or disease even though it's found in creatures like crusteaceans that can have one big and one small pincer for example.

>TLDR: It depends on what you're trying to create, take from what you know and experiment.

I've been struggling with this recently, since I've been doing a lot of alien illustrations for my rpg group. I think that, like so much in art, the key is research. Understanding how animals evolved gives you insights into how things could be different. These were done in a bit of a rush and with software I haven't really mastered yet, so they could be better, but the group seems pleased with what I'm doing.

Quick cheat list for making things alien: transparent skin, colours other than brown, spikes and/or fronds, number of limbs other than 4, number of eyes other than 2, respiratory intake not through the throat, ears not on the head, number of heads other than 1, mouth not a vertebrate-style jaw, holes running through the body. You really only need a couple of those to start looking interesting.

HE DIDNT DRAW SO GOOD

>>2609742
You're a big drawing.

>>2603310
You're part of the problem with so many artists in this day and age. The pens aren't fucking important. Only amateurs who have no idea what they are doing think pens actually matter. They don't. The standard ballpoint pen is all you need. Asking about pens implies that having them is going to get you anywhere. It's not.

PS:Kill yourself.

>oh no, i need to have something intellectual. the type of thing that you can play in the background and learn a bunch of stuff, and if it's dense with information that means it has more replay value
I like listening to alan watts when im tired of music
dudes got a pretty soothing voice, interesting ideas and most of his lectures are uploaded in hour long sessions, you could give him a shot

Why make a thread to show off your two minute doodles? Something tells me you'd be more comfortable fishing for compliments about your boring life on facebook
