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.

I like the idea of a simple cover but I'm not sure. I'll post two poss. ideas I drew up on PC. Tell me hat you think and etc. Also just book cover art general I guess?
here is idea 2
pls help
What's the book about?
>>2504371
A French guy that kills himself more or less
Here's a look at how it COULD be laid out if I went with my idea1
Share your DA, insta, Patreon, tumblr etc.

What's /ic/'s view on Drake's new album cover called 'Views'?
I think his perspective is way off. The nigga would be a giant if he were that big sitting atop the CN Tower.

>The nigga would be a giant if he were that big sitting atop the CN Tower.
But if they made him any smaller you wouldn't be able to see him clearly as a part of the composition/focal point when viewed at the size of a CD.
>>2504812
Yeah I saw someone calculating it and he is around 12ft tall in the pic.
What a crap photobash
Hi, I just started recently to get serious with drawing in general and I have never done any sort of pen and paper drawing until then so right now I've been diving into figure drawing books and tuts left and right. At the same time I'm practicing with an Intuos Art Small but I'm planning to buy a Cintiq 22HD a year later once I've earned enough money.
How rough will the transition be? Would practicing with a tablet with no display be sort of wasting effort cause of the difference in size and the strokes I use with one compared to the other?
>>2504688
Get a big sheet of paper and a pencil and try it. If you can adjust to that then you can adjust to the Cintiq.
Literally only benefits
Welcome to the baller life
I want to draw like Bruce Timm.
What's the best way to start?
By reading the sticky and learning your fundamentals.
well study his work. learn anatomy and all the basics. I hate to say it, but Loomis. Bruce Timm's work is heavily influenced by 40s and 50s american fashion and art design, so you'll profit doubly by studying Loomis. check the klebrig for this.
also look at old fashion catalogues, vintage pin up & porn magazines and similar artists like sharon glines. pic related
good luck
I can honestly tell you that after countless hours spent drawing and designing and having little to no progress I found out that best way to develop an eye and steady hand as well as natural sense of aesthetic and "lightness"of strokes is worshipping Satan. I could tell you that after just a year of daily sacrifices and couple of hours of defiling I became better artists than I ever hoped to be. My eye is incredibly sharp (actually it's made of razors and grew on the back of my head) and if it comes to ligameme, my body is nothing but cancerous growth of ligaments the size of ripe bull heart.
SONG tries to bring this classic sculpture of my favorite demigod to life on his graphic tablet.

Heyo,
I'm experiencing issues with a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 14 (20DM008FGE) when using its Wacom AES pen with Adobe products.
In Photoshop or Flash, the pen gets "stuck" for some time when tapping the display.
Anyone here had similar issues or similar setups?
Sketchbook, Krita works fine. Tried different Wacom drivers. I'm guessing it could be something multitouch related aswell, since after some time, all those little selection waves appear.
guessed I'd ask /ic/ before /g/
>>2502214
you probably installed the wrong drivers, or installed them improperly
i recently got the intuos comic and am having lag trouble with clip studio paint. Its annoying as fuck and i donĀ“t know how to fix it.
ITT Art you have burned in your mind.

I can see why.
We often talk about "making it", but what does 'making it' mean to you?
Some people want to work in an art related industry like cartoons, comics or video games. Some people want to make their own thing and hope to find huge success with it somehow. Others might want to draw young girls(?) getting bottomed-out by nightmarish rape monsters with unnaturally large, pluralized penises.
For one guy it was illustrating a small article in a dying parody magazine
Is there anything you could achieve as an artist that would reduce you to a blubbering wreck if you decided to talk about it later?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNteurWDWbE
>>2500538
For me making it would be drawing creepy weird shit that is both fascinating and terrifying like the stuff you could have found on /f/reakshow art threads somewhere around 2011.
...alternatively to get to the Takashi Murakami level.
Me personally? Doing this in a crowded coffee bar in 10-15 minutes.
>>2500562
I like this a lot, got a page?
is the secret to having a popular art blog on tumblr not actually as much the quality of your work but rather how much you reblog and consume other peoples dashboard?
>>2500374
I only fuck around with instagram, but if the tumblr normie art community is ANYTHING like it is on IG, then yes yes fuck yes its way more about how much you interact/reblog/consume etc
>TUMBLR
>Post carefully crafted, meaningful, highly technical work for 1 year and half, no response, sometimes I get one or two likes weeks/months later, reblogs literally never happen.
>Post Splatoon lewds and sfw fanart, sketchy, not refined, wathever, get a few notes and reweets right away.
K, its ok, I understand now.
:,)
>>2500386
I like to have a tight little blog with my art and a few really cool things that ive reblogged or posted
but now im just going to rebogg everything I vaguely like but assume other will
I wish there was a way to keep reblogs from showing up on your main page
Basically i need help with Homework below,as an IT student i lack philosophical capability.
My colors are brown + green
explain the meaning of when a single colour is used and how the meaning changes in a combination.
fuck off
>>2502481
It's not philosophical. It's just what associations people have with colours. Some of it is cultural, like how pink is for girls and blue is for boys...pink used to be considered a masculine colour for boys since it is like a weaker red, and red is for men. Other colour associations are more genetic, like if you have blue food it isn't appetizing because that's a colour of moulds.
When colours are combined they may have certain associations that are cultural (red + green = christmas, red + blue + white = american).
Also how colour is perceived is all relative. Our eyes don't see colour like a computer that can assign a numerical code to go with a specific colour. Instead, we see things based on what is around them. So if you have a neutral grey next to a strong red, then that grey will appear slightly blueish. Or if you have the opposite, a neutral grey next to a strong blue, then that same neutral grey will appear slightly orangish.
Just think a bit about colour and what your first reactions and thoughts are when you think of it or see it. Probably you already know more than you would expect. Like yellow for example. If it is super strong and bright and greeny yellow, it might look toxic. If it is a bit warmer and yellow orange but still strong it is a sort of sunny happy colour. If you get a really dull grey yellow it might be a more melancholy feeling, or perhaps in extreme cases even more aligned with death and dryness. You already have these associations in your head, just think a bit yourself.
>>2502481
Green by itself is often used to indicate a positive status. Power On. System running optimally or within safe limits. Green stoplight = go. Etc.
Green + Brown feels earthy. Probably a common color scheme for eco-friendly or organic stuff. With the shades you've chosen and with the white sans-serif text, even more so.
