Hi /ic/
I'm new to art and just discovered Sycra's YouTube channel. I've been trying out his 'iterative drawing' idea, what do you think of my results?
>>2540301
Well, tell me what the fuck iterative drawing is first
>>2540306

if you're really into painting the same portrait of the same person in the same exact pose, power to you
meanwhile anyone else with a brain will be learning construction and form instead of that bullshit that sycra spews
I'm making a a new 2D story platformer similar to LISA. I can't do pixel art for shit. Anyone wanna help?
>>2537032
What's your budget?
If you don't want to get shit on you should name a price. You're just going to get shitposted into oblivion asking for charity.
gimme da money
$$$
money money money
Should I watch Vilppu anatomy video lectures before continuing further into the Drawing Manual?
I read the first chapter but I feel like I'm still struggling with the lower body and proportions in general too much to be ready for it.

What are your art pet peeves?
>>2539468
Kill yourself
fucking crybaby
pens skipping, when I started I was like why do people get upset, now it infuriates me
>>2539468
>What are your art pet peeves?
My tremendous lack of self motivation
Let's try this.
I've been wanting to chat to more people about art and make more friends in general. So I thought it would be a good idea to post here.
I have tried on /soc/ but everyone is thirsty and such and the conversation gets a little boring.
So post your gallery and your kik or something else you use to talk to people on and let's get some chatting going.

Kik is Chainchomped .
I hope to hear from someone!

is there a reason youre too cool for the 3 already existing discord groups and the 8 skype groups?
I'm glad we can have this thread bi-weekly though,
>>2528635
Link to other groups namefag
>>2528646
The discord is linked to the /beg/ thread. As for the skype group you post your handle and someone will add you.
Post thumbnails and sketches, basically the small studies and exploration artists went through (trying different values, composition, colours, etc) before starting on the actual final work.
Also feel free to share any interesting or helpful information/articles on the topic.

Why do you draw porn
I need money and have no morals.
i hear the money game is real
has any porn artists here jacked it to their own work? i figure that you need to make a super quick sketch while you're still horny or else the time spent is just gonna numb you to it and not want to fap anymore
>>2535449
I have never jacked to my work. All I see are the lines I put down and my mistakes.
Getting good should be fun right?
If you think drawing figures is boring, maybe this isn't for you?
>>2530405
actually no and if you take your craft seriously you stop going for the fun aspect and start going for the this needs to be fixed and i will change shit according to feedback tier
>>2530419
this
quit art op
I want to make an art rate app. Literally all you do is submit your art and when people are board they swipe and rate art in the app's associated database, giving people feedback on their work in the process.
What does /ic/ think of this? IMO the ability to gain critique is cumbersome in the online art world, things really need to change if we want to help the skill level increase in the artistic community as a whole.
>>2539204
This is a dumb idea for many reasons
>>2539206
Okay. Please explain.
For the record this wouldn't be a means of getting detailed, well informed critique, just a way of gauging interest/appeal in a general audience without the limits that other types of platforms introduce.
>>2539204
I actually really like this brah. But please don't be one of those "idea" guys that brings this to a developer. Do it yourself or stop talking about it.
How do you deal with loneliness as an artist?
It feels like the past few years, I've been outgrowing some of my old friends who just want to play video games and go out to parties.
I have a couple of art friends, but they only draw fanart or cute things and get pretty bored with their work. They're also not super interested in critiquing or discussing techniques, they just like to draw fanart because it's fun. Which is fine, but it's not very engaging for me.
>>2538711
Drawing 8h/day and then "recovering" surely will make you lonely. It's better to have healthy life and do art than be "misunderstood", suffering artist, the only one who "takes it seriously" and"is going to make it".
I spent all my time either eating, sleeping or drawing. There is no room for social contacts in my schedule anyway.
kek you think I have friends.

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.

good night friends and family
Hey,
need some critiques for my new design.
Those are labels for my homemade liquors.
What do you think?
>>2538774
From a practical perspective, it feels like your negative space flavor indicator (the cherry or peach) would easily be torn, and could afford to be smaller.
The bear doesn't IMMEDIATELY shout out bear if you cut off the ears.
While I alone the font you used for the lgogo, the small text on top of the label, and by extension the min/vol text could afford to be a more readable font.
Other than that, its pretty cool.
clear plastic in the negative shapes bro

Dear /ic/,
My fan brush turns into a toothless old lady when I try to use it.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Cheers
This is what it turns into
>>2538529
Aren't you supposed to keep the bristles dry? and then you just sort of tap/brush the canvas lightly with the tip of it to blend paint that is already down and isn't too thickly laid in.
>>2538533
I don't really know, I've only seen Bob Ross use one of these to paint clouds.
He was loading it with paint and painting directly.
Don't know if it makes a difference that he's using oils and I'm on acrylics either.
