I can't stop fucking off. Someone please tell me to go load the damn kiln. Help!
>>2597427
My ceramics teacher used to yell at anyone who said "kill-n" instead of "kil."
i need constructive critism
>>2596752
it's shit, go to beginner thread and read the sticky
thanks my dude
I actually kind of like it. It's got personality and a distinctive style.
However, stylised faces are pretty much the easiest thing to draw ever. You will not learn much from doing them. I recommend a year of drawing no faces at all. Draw everything else and leave faces until you can produce good images of other things.
new on this board. i don't draw but make music
/mu/ is cool but i wish there was a more dedicated place on 4chan for the creation of music and critique.
is music allowed on this board?
>>2596585
not OP, but it's just "artwork". music is art too
>>2596584
Fuck off back to /mu/

Do you think James Jean (and other artists with moleskins for that matter) have "secret" sketchbooks which are a bit messier than this one? My sketchbook are all messy and ugly, with the occasional drawing I'm happy with...Obviously he's much better than me, but still. It's like every single page of this is so well thought out, consistent and aesthetically pleasing that the whole sketchbook it's basicaly ready to be shipped to a publisher and get scanned and released as a artbook as it is. Is he just that good?
>>2594617
Yes, congratulations, you now found out that people have lots of sketchbooks and often they have some to make videos like that or to carry around and if someone says "show me your sketchbook" they will go and show the guy those beautiful pages.
Also notice how most of those sketchbooks have pages torn out of them. Ever wonder why?
>>2594617
Exactly senpai. Also once you get good your sketchbook isn't filled with practice that isn't nice drawings. My sketchbooks get better with each one and I can definitely see a day where every drawing I do isn't necessarily great but is interesting to other people
>>2594617
This has been known for some time.
I remember first seeing a lot of it 05' and onward with the rise of CA and sharing of studies and sketchbooks online. Everyone's sketchbooks, both digital and physical, became more like a compilation of finished work rather than places to just fuck around and try new ideas.
It's an offshoot of the "I work 16 hours a day" meme. It's just a propaganda tool to make the person look more badass.
Alternatively, a highly skilled artists "shit pages" in their sketch book are still going to look pretty good, compared to someone who's shit. But 40 fully rendered graphite drawings or tight, clean ink draws is not what your average artist would think of when you say "sketchbook".
So i've just bought a wacom tablet yesterday and learning how to draw. I'm using the software called Krita.
My lines and stuff look jagged and shit still but i'm sure it's just practice.
It's harder to actually learn the software itself.. i have a problem when i'm done drawing and wanna start coloring, let's say i have drawn a face, i see on youtube etc how they color the entire hair with one color first without ever going outside the actual lines, i can't seem to do that.
I guess i need to mark the area somehow? so i can just color it without worrying about going outside the hair itself or in the face etc?
See pic.
Start with physical media (pencil and paper) and read the sticky. I made the same mistake you did and started digitally. The added level of abstraction and struggling with drivers/programs is not something you need right now. You can buy some no2 pencils and a shitty sketchbook for cheap.
Two seconds with google would teach you about brush stabilizers and the selection tool/masking.
>>2594294
This is what you should be doing though, at least learn how to draw before you start trying to use something way more complicated to do it.
>>2594346
>digital
>more complicated
nice easy undos, easy fixable mistakes, extra measure tools, and easier colour picking familia :^)
I drew this.
>>2592217
It's shit.
"drew" is a funny way of saying "wasted time"
OP would you be willing to sell this?

Because we should not have to make new threads or post in draw threads with our fundamental exercises.
Feel free to post even the smallest exercise you have done to show you are still trying, do not give up, make your mom proud.
AVOID asking unrelated questions, there is a question thread for that.
RESIZE YOUR IMAGES TO ~1000 PIXELS:
#1)
>screenshot the image and post that instead (also images shouldn't come out accidentally sideways with this method)
#2)
>change camera capture settings to something smaller
#3)
>send to computer and resize in MSPaint

There's a new sticky in town! You can see it at:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VfDTpLLVl5bWUGWguswKpPFml533luI8-NBd1EGYHnA/edit
>Thread study: Try to draw/paint the opening or any other following images.
Feel free to post your original works as well if you're trash.
TRY TO BE MORE ACTIVE AND GIVE PEOPLE SOME FEEDBACK - many studies are left unreplied, which is a bit sad and can be quite demotivating for the people that try their best to improve, but are left directionless.
Old thread: >>2590589
I found this drawing and many more like it in my 10 year old son's notebook. Could any of you more artistic people try and interpret what this means and tell me if I should be concerned at all?
It's a fetish.
Take the internet away from him.
It means he thinks his father is a fucking moron.

i used to draw shit like that when i was 10, and now im a perfectly well adjusted sex offender who hasnt had a job in 6 months - i turned out just fine, im sure your son will too :3
Hello /ic/,
This is my original character Asmanos Aricia. He is 21 and a rebel. He had to go to church until one day the Satan came and he sold his soul and now he has a demon living in his lower abs area and it cusses a lot. He likes Bela Bartok and Megadeth and his favorite book is A Passage to India by EM Forster. He is an orthodox sanatanist and also he is bisexual and does not wash his hare.
>>2596828
>does not wash his hare
What a dick!
>>2596986
Because he is a rebel

My grandmother was going to throw this picture away but I saw it had a signature on it, so could any experts help me! Thank you.
>>2596570
here's a not upside down one, sorry lmao
I can't really tell
Do you mind posting a bigger picture maybe?
Here you go man, best photo I've got
What are some good resources on traditional painting? No matter how many books and videos about rendering I see it always seems like people are patching together random colors when they paint
What do you mean by patching?
>>2596095
Like, they take yellow and green and red and somehow it makes a face. I never understood how they pick out those colors, just "red goes with green, make things darker to look more 3d"
>>2596111
Iearn how light works and brush up on your perspective that's all you need to do
(Also when it comes to painting blending is about 60% of the process)

Hey /ic/
I'm working on an architecture portfolio, still under construction
These are a few pages(all related to one project)
What do you think so far.
The "Blue Print" page would contain literally a blue print folded and just tuck there with a selection of technical drawings
pic related
>>2596781
there's no key, no scale, wtf is this?
this is just a ble peice of paper with decorated boxes, as far as i'm concerned.
have you ever seen a blueprint.
pic related!
>>2596787
The portfolio needless have such details, an architect would recognize that these are plans, which are technical as opposed to pure graphics in the book, but good point on fact I should add that these are plans tbw.
