Don't bother learning anything except surface anatomy unless you are a science student or want to draw nothing except skeletons, muscles. I did anat in undergrad biomed and am doing it again as a medfag now, but it hasn't improved my ability to draw poses at all.

Best way to learn anatomy is to cram cards with image occlusion and multiple fields on anki, but artists don't need this shit. Just get two good anatomy atlases - Netters for reference and Rohen's for cadaver dissection and look them up as you go.

you don't need to know the names, don't worry so much about it, there are books called things like 'anatomy for the artist' which have the specific information you need as an artist. i went to medical school and there you literally fill notebook after notebook of sketches and latin learning anatomy, doing that for art would be silly.

i could probably find one of the notebooks and take a picture or two if you guys are curious.

Damn, I was pretty curious to hear the opinion of med students and what sort of black magic do they use to remember everything. Thanks for your insight.

Yeah, I'm curious to see your notebooks and I'd be thankful if you could take a couple of photos.

$300 is relatively average for original comic art by someone still living and with as generous an output as Ottley.

Being able to sell original art is a nice plus of drawing comics traditionally, especially if you're on lower page rates like I am ($100 per page).

post work

The answer is pretty simple. Regardless of how talent you are, you still have to work REALLY HARD to get good. The difference between someone who is talented and someone who isn't, is that the hard work actually pays off. So that's why when you ask someone talented how they got good they'll simply say "I worked hard".

>>3086528
talent + hardwork + social capital + marketing + good financial management/business sense = someone who can "make" it.

>>3086528
Talent is nothing but intelligence.

Don't kid yourself, if you can't do art right without having done it since childhood, you can't do anything right.

pretty good gesture, nice clean readable silhouette, you'd do p good at storyboarding for cartoons

her left arm looks to be in front of her face
plates look like they are angled inwards
one plate is a cylinder while the other is smoothed
knees should be above feet. her right knee in particular makes it look like her knees are buckling together
looks like she is falling to her right because of this

I'm in. I was planning to start soon anyway

Is there an official /ic/ discord?

Yeah this is it

>>3081707
yeah, it sucks ass. It's full of 1) shitters, and more importantly, 2) shitters giving advice. the only 4-5 people who know what they're doing aren't active enough to keep it worthwhile

Stop doing that chicken scratch shit man. Make more confident lines. Software doesn't have anything to do with it. Also, you should've posted in like the Alt Style thread or the Questions thread rather than making an entire new thread.

Is that what i fucking think it is..

Anyway, just develop your line confidence. Tracing other peoples lineart is a good way to practice hand and line control.

Draw lightly in pencil then trace confidently with pen or marker.

yes now fuck off

That's just my style

If that's true I will be next Kim Jung Gi.

Being left handed isn't as good as you think it is OP. I can't draw straight lines for shit. Don't know why I even browse this board.

I'm left handed AMA

Can we ban all the fuckers using the wojak and pepe pictures? they're fucking retarded and they always make the most pointless threads.

Fuck off.

Good enough for what?

Ahhh this thread i guess.... not sure if i should post in beginner or something.

>>3087135
Post in /beg/ instead. You'll get better advice there instead of pissing people of by needlessly making an entire thread for yourself.

The Unburnt

got retards shitting another board, cool

>>3086488
a good schedule is to draw whenever you have time. People that are considered talented just draw in the time that others play vidya

I also just started doing Hampton's book and I do like one part of the body a day for a few hours concurrently with the same bones in Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist which has a bit more info to supplement with. Yesterday was the arms bones, today the head. I think this is working alright for me.
