YEAH?! IT'S CALLED CHOKE ON YOUR OWN BALLS AND DIE, CIS SCUM. HOW DARE YOU BE SO OFFENSIVE

this? http://flockmod.com/flockmod
you can also try drawpile http://drawpile.net/
but that's software you have to install, and you probably need to use hamachi with it, if you don't have a port forwarded. but it's much better than any of the online variants, imo.

Are you talking about drawpile?

Real life. Get your girl friend to model for you. Say it's for art. There's no problems. Just draw what you see until you get it.

>>For figure drawing, you could continue with Vilppu, Loomis and Hampton. Choosing between these is a matter of personal preference, but for best results, study them all, starting with the one that appeals to you the most.

> Vilppu is best known for his video lectures, but you could also go through his book The Vilppu Drawing Manual.

>As for Loomis, after Fun with a Pencil, go to Figure Drawing for All It's Worth and Drawing the Head and Hands.

>Then there is Figure Drawing: Design and Invention by Michael Hampton.

>Focus on getting proportions right. All your artworks and studies should start with a solid construction base. Practicing gestures will keep your figures fluent and lively, whilst studying anatomy will make them look somewhat human.

>Construction is useful for any subject. When studying from life or reference, you break the subject down into simple shapes. When drawing from imagination, you reverse this thinking process: you start with a basic structure to construct the whole.

First you have to learn how to learn how to learn.

>>2552150
How?

>>2552148
If you could Learn how to learn how to learn,
Then you already know how to learn and don't need to learn how to learn to learn.

You'll just have to practice like the rest of us

>I'm trying to migrate from digital illustration to comic book coloring.
aren't they literally the same thing

>>2552657
Indeed they're similar, but all my illustration work has been around my country and pays very little.
My will is to work with comic book coloring for people who could pay in dollars.

It's not worth buying a book on folds to be honest. You are better off just understanding that drapery is determined by three things--the form underneath it, tension points/slack, and the material it's made out of (thick? thin? stiff?).

Some people classify folds into categories, I think Bridgman is the first I've seen to come up with the 7 fold types, but I actually prefer these drawings to his of them: http://www.mightyartdemos.com/mightyartdemos-bradley.html

So yeah, understand the basic principles behind it, then do studies from life and photos. You will quickly start to understand how clothing typically arranges itself. It's really not as complex as some people think it is.

>>2552596
I hope you're right, anon, because you're making it sound simpler than it might be.

>>2552599
Well it's simple enough, but that doesn't mean it is super easy. To lose weight you just need to eat fewer calories, which is a simple idea but tough to do.

If you already have decent drawing skills though then learning drapery isn't as hard as some people make it out to be. At least in my opinion.

Also drapery is super easy to find ref on, either in life or from photos. So that alone makes it a lot easier.

Watch movies, read books, go outside, listen to music, get a hobby, look at a lot of art and photography. Keep a small notepad with you at all time to quickly jot down an idea or thumbnail if you are ever struck with a brief moment of inspiration before it disappears.

Odd I have anxiety that at times borders on agoraphbia, particularly when I'm in situations where I'm stuck somewhere I can't leave, like work meetings, weddings, lectures, going to the dentist, etc. I deal with it as best I can but even the smallest things can be a huge struggle. Sketching during these things to the extent I can helps take my mind of it and even when I'm out on my own using the right side of my brain I'm able to forget all of those thoughts and the circular anxious thinking and be totally in the moment.

Idk, anon, to me it seems like your problem is more to do with being creative than anxiety. The best way to get over that is just to do it a lot and trust yourself.

How the fuck do you get that bad? Did your parents abuse you? Were you abandoned? Problems like that usually arise in childhood.

Also I'm not surprised that psychiatric drugs are inhibiting your normal brain function.

Well, i can tell you one thing, dont get a Bamboo Capture, Splash, ect, allot of support has now been discontinued. Intuos is my nest stop, not sure what model but i'm looking around and in the market for a new one. Anyone would like others suggestions too

>>2548864
I got the same tablet as a first time buyer. I have no frame of reference but it works great - driver issues here and there but easy to fix by restarting your computer.

>>2548864
Go medium.
Small is small for your monitor.

>>2548720
Is that your work?

I've done it a few times, people didn't seem to care. If you can find a window seat in a cafe or library or something that is a good spot.

>>2548730
Yes it is, drawn on my phone.

Thanks.

>>2548720
it's fine, just don't be creepy about it. don't make it obvious that you're drawing them, make it look as if you're looking past them and not staring. i'd imagine the only reactions you'll get will be positive

direct me to where you believe a piece of evidence resides in support of this claim

i like anime

>>2549549
personally, I think the grand majority of anime is shit
[spoiler]mostly for writing reasons[/spoiler]

>that being said

Samurai Champloo and Mushishi are my two favorite works. And they aren't exactly visually striking works of the decade.

I'd been planning to but as I got started I realized I'm too damn drunk to do anything recognizable.
If nobody bites I'll post something tomorrow to get the ball rolling, though it probably won't be that great.

They're used for cleaning up rough sketches and in-betweening animation. Vital of you're doing traditional animation, but not really important for anything else.

>>2552099
What use are they in in-betweening

>>2552078
They don't weigh as much as a heavy box

>>2551826
>what tools should i buy? i want to get into digital art
Buy some paper and pencils. In 6 months to a year buy an intuos.

>>2551826
A tablet, obviously. Probably one on the cheaper end (unless you have enough to get somethung better, I got a wacom intuos medium for 150$), and if you don't have a laptop, then a laptop or a 2-in-1 would be good. Honestly unless you've been doing traditional art for a while, I don't recommend skipping over the pencil and paper stage because you'll be more inclined to waste your time on polishing and ctrl+z

>>2551836
This.

And I would add: shitty paper so that you're not afraid to waste it. For pen/pencils, not something expensive but something comfortable, with B or 2B leads. Get an eraser pen too, that's really great.

FAQ:
Something's broken, what do I do?

>The site is currently in the alpha phase of development and is being built around us as we compete so sometimes things go wrong. If you ever need any help send me a tweet @LavaFlake or shoot me an email [email protected].

What do we draw?

>Whatever you want. At this point there's no required topic so draw your heart out. Make sure you submit at least a half hour of work or you may get a low effort warning.

What's a low effort warning?

>The goal is to get people to draw every day by turning it into a competition. The low effort warning system is to prevent people from posting last minute, quick sketches when they're feeling lazy. If you receive a warning and it happens again within a month you'll be eliminated.

>This rule has been the cause of a lot of concern amongst newer artists so let me reiterate: this system is to police low effort content and has nothing to do with the quality of the work. New artists are more than welcome.

What happens if I'm eliminated?

>A new Last Artist Standing challenge starts every week. If you get eliminated then get it together and rejoin next week.

How can there be a new Last Artist Standing challenge every week?

>This is a way to let new artists join in and to allow re-entry for the eliminated. Every week a new challenge is started. If you joined on week 1 and make it to week 2 then your daily submission counts for both the first and second Last Artist Standing. If you get eliminated then you're eliminated from both challenges and you'll be able to rejoin next week.

Will I have an advantage if I join later in the week?

>The winner of a Last Artist Standing will be the artist with the longest streak. If you join on day 1 and last until day 85 then you'll have a streak of 85. If there's only one person left in the challenge when you're eliminated but they joined on Day 7 then they'll need to continue on for another week. If they're eliminated before then, you win.
