Inspiration thread?

>>2616501
At least start with something good
>>2616505
that rendering is pretty bad senpai
>>2616507
Post your work. Kim Jung Gi.
>>2616514
not saying im good but too close to my level to inspire me
dont be defensive
>>2616510
i live for this style. I saw it all over concept art like a few years ago but idk where to find this shit anymore. Mechanical pencils, minimal construction, moleskine.. ugh. How do they do it? Doing legs and arms like this with no form lines is absurd
>>2616547
if you looks closely there are form lines just very light
>>2616541
>close

>>2616725
Honnoji Academy
>>2616541
Seems like it's too small on the page maybe? Try to draw bigger if you don't want it to be that messy.
>>2616541
This anon isn't wrong, you know.

Me too, but who's to say they aren't just using references?
>>2616501
>>2616808
That kinda looks like the Paladin guy from Ultima
>>2616501
if you're into matte painting

Is this 3DPD?

Or is it the best waifu from every angle?
>>2616501
This isn't even that good
The random sword and belt makes it so much worse
BD had some great art
>>2616814
Yeah I'm sure it's so easy to draw like that with a reference in front
>>2616930
and some wonderful environments
>>2616931
post more knights

now is that inspiration or ref?
....we need an .~*aesthetics*~. thread....
>>2616963
Upload it to Dropbox or something, armour gets me real hard
This was a real statue I believe, but I can't find the original
>>2616963
Feeling like uploading it as a .rar bro? I really love knights too.

HELP
Can someone post that catbib painting of a girl with blue skin and dark blue hair? Eyes closed, with a sort of orange dress I think, it was a portrait.
I can't find that shit anywhere!
>>2616954
I saw this exact thing on salvia, thanks for posting it
>>2616841
That kinda reminds me of Raita if he was better

>>2617010
I took about a hundred photos of armour in a museum a couple of years ago. if you guys tell me how and where to upload them, I could do that for you. I just don't want to bother with signing up anywhere.
>>2617074
I'll assume you have a Google account (Gmail/Youtube/etc..), Google Drive comes with that.
Go into your Drive and drag the Armour folder into it and it should begin to upload.
Once it's uploaded share a link to your drive to us. That's it
>>2617063
jesus christ, thats horrific
>>2617097
It matches his style but Raita's style isn't the kind to translate that well to 3D
>>2617063
Well those are Raita's characters in the image, so...that would make sense.
>>2616984
He streams on twitch twice a week doin animation for a game.

>>2616541
You have a terrible, if not completely blind eye if you actually think you're anywhere close to the level of the pic in OP.
>>2616860
who dis?
>>2616975
>>2617074
I doubt there are many good places to upload hundreds of files without an account. Google drive and dropbox are worth having an account just for the utility, though.
>>2617253
Why do you post this shit? The painter of this didn't even read loomis
>>2617254
I think he's one of the most genius of a lot of them
>>2617256
Okay, I'll try to enjoy this painting without prejudice:
>So it's a guy painting an angel
>He's clearly hallucinating or something because the floor is made of clouds
>The model is behind him so yeah it takes skill to paint like that I guess
WHAT ELSE? I literally don't understand why people like this, please explain to me why is is better than Ruan Jia
>>2617259
there's not much point as you are wilfully going to mis-understand me
>>2617228
Thanks mang, it's beautiful
>>2617286
Thought I posted this, love the twirl near the end
>>2616954
and stuff from personal jesus
>no one posted this yet
wow this was a staple of inspiration threads a few years ago
>>2616541
if OP was 8/10, this is 7.8/10.
About a 2% difference.
>>2617406
this looks digital
>>2616750
i just did a little thumbnail sketch because anon asked me to post my work and then everyone flipped out, it wasnt meant to be some 3 day painting to prove how much better i am than everyone else. I don't even play the witcher :(
>>2616933
I'm sure it's easier.
>>2617692
I forget his name but he's well-known for his sketchbooks
>>2616541
>>2616501
Obviously OP pic has better values and lineweight, but I'd like to hear from anyone criticising this anon what they think is so laughably different. Because even though the OP pic is better, they look well within 'too close to be particularly inspiring' range to me.
Not for argument's sake, but for education's sake. I love digging into details. Assuming it's not blatant shitposting, I'd love to be able to see what others are seeing.
>>2617886
Take your fingers and cover up the eyes in op's pic which is the only part rendered out and the rest of the picture looks very mediocre. Hell just cover the eye on the right side
>>2617886
Theres really not much to learn, I think people typically attack the person who throws the first stone.
That and the person/people that like the image see it as an attack on their taste so take it personally.

>>2617911
Yo dump this set if you have it
Great zelder drawings
Not if theyre all ant pics though
>>2617903
Are you blind, or did you draw that trash?
Good thread
>>2617119
Doesn't translate to 2D well either.
>>2616501
anyone have the name of that french digital artist/illustrator? not zedig, someone else
>>2617985
Moebius? Jjfrenchie? Claire wendling?
>>2617996
nah, its some contemporary guy a weird name and he has a blogspot I think, a wierd sttyle sometimes as well, I know some pictures of his, the one with the nigger running around some animal shooting it I think, then some other weird creatures and some kind distorted men, small fat or something
>>2618021
oh and some picture with men in a car, someone I think is shot, they are criminals probably
>>2618021
Sounds like this one by Sergey Kolesov

>>2618036
thats him, thanks boyo
>>2617969
Post your art :)
>>2618087
I don't need a bunch of autists trying to ruin my income, thanks.
>>2618147
Backing off like a bitch after talking shit is also a viable choice i guess. All good artists can draw an anonymous sketch without betraying their style as well so i guess you answered without meaning to :)
>>2618151
>defending this
never gonna make it
>>2618158
still better than your nothing to post :^)
>>2618151
Not him, but the idea of expecting someone to actually take the time and draw a new thing - while trying to disguise any sort of style - is laughable. If they only spend 5-10 minutes people will shit on it because it looks like a rush job. If you spend hours, well, you just spent hours validating a "post your work" guy and he'll probably shit on you anyway because he's already butthurt.
>>2618161
Sure.
Don't quit your job at burger king
>>2618164
and don't quit yours at sucking dick.
>>2618162
Or maybe if youre not a garbageman you can spend 10 minutes on a sketch and come out with something indicative of your skill level

Haaaaay! wake up from your stylized dream into his reality... bricks would have want to be shet by anus ... anus and peehole. lemme break it down ... if say someone who would be clearly capable by demonstrating it beyond any doubt that he can... and then he draws this ... what then !? what would you say- that this is shit?! in his face
he would look at you and smile slightly cos you dont have the same effect on people, its circular argument ... im not going anywhere with this.
>>2618247
we statues now
>>2618182
that image could be used easily for sameface
>>2618267
It's commercial work, genius
>>2616880
This is beautiful. Would kill to play a racing game with this art direction
>>2616834
He is my inspiration as well. Too bad there is an autist here on /ic/ that freaks out whenever you try talk about him. He doesn't want anyone to know who he is and thinks he's the one that should only know.
>>2618785
Can't say I've seen an anon like that
>>2618769
Redline has some of the best art direction I've seen in a racing movie, worth a watch some time

"look - im making you eat the plants! nom, nom, nom!"
Would I be able to make draw these with a regular HB? The shading is absolutely wonderful, but I never know if these artists are using a variety of pencils.
>>2619119
Hb is pretty perfect lead for sketching imo, its all i use. I would recommend buying a mechanical woth a variety of leads
>>2616510
Wait is this wesley burt or miles jonston ? Or are they the same fucking person ? They have literally the same style.
>>2619119
that black is at least 6B black
>>2619262
Def not Miles. His figures do not look like that. Btw Miles art looks even better in real life, the pages are smaller than you'd expect
>>2616941
Go watch a doc. On how tight the fit tolerance was on custom knight armor to be further amazed.

is that charcoal or graphite? mix?
>>2620644
>>2620658
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/6R106
From the comments:
"It's plain ol graphite. I think once tried charcoal to moleskin paper and that was disaster. Theres no tooth in that paper so charcoal doesn't really stick."
My guess is that the white is goauche. And yeah, it's sweet too bad the dude hasn't uploaded more like this
>>2616541
OP's pic looks better but this ain't so bad compared to OP, fuck is everyone up in arms about
>>2616874
Remember to not post pics for ants
>>2621646
It's flat and shitty.
Looks like a 14 year old drew it.

Going to his workshop in Pasadena, I could not be more excited.
>>2616894
what a god..
>>2617222
Maybe Durer
>>2621937
It was drawn in like 10 minutes and is a tiny thumbnail just because some anon asked to show art, a fact that everyone being bitchy is conveniently ignoring
>>2622041
/ic/ is mostly jelly neckbeards
>>2622041
They aren't bitchy, they are merely telling you that you are nowhere near the level of the guy who you were criticizing. Also I somehow doubt when you decided to post your work, you were searching for the worst drawing you made, so chances are, your best work doesn't look much better than that shitty, tiny 10 minute thumbnail.
>>2622349
The OP is by some random russian that does trite photocopy tier sketches, only this time its of a Witcher character. Attached pic is a more recent example, shes not good.
The person that was produced the supposed quick sketch when asked to deliver either just so happened to have a Witcher sketch lying around OR did it on demand, perhaps he should have timestamped it.
And people wonder why others dont post their work, the real reason is that it gets attacked regardless.
>>2622349
>you
>implying
when I was a kid, I liked how one piece was not bound to realism when drawing and creating characters
>>2622491
>when I was a kid
what ? you can still fully enjoy it while being an adult. There really isn't anything wrong with that.
>>2622452
Agreed, reading this thread felt surreal, OP pic is weak. Look at how sloppy and aimless the strokes are, for example on the collarbone. Compared to tgat, the quick sketch by anon has far more solid form and purposeful strokes. Like in the way the clump of hair falling over the face is handled. OP is just sloppy, looks like goop. Anon handled that much more elegantly IMO
>>2621855

this board always has something to complain about, and has such a fuck huge collective ego, which makes me think that most of you are full blown autistic faggots with helicopter parents. I fucking hate this place. But at least you guys are fucking brutal and not a hugbox like deviantart.
>>2623124
The reason i think this board has gone to shit is that there used to be a lot of pretty decent artists around here who would give serious blunt advice and all of the sensitive fuccboi shitters were too stupid to read past "its bad" so the "ic is asshole" meme started up and now every idiot tumblerite who cant draw is calling every other artist garbage to feel better about themselves. Combine that with a big dose of summer and good old fashioned autism and suddenly its Deviantart 2.0
>>2623169
I agree.

>>2620057

>>2624157
>I don't understand the purpose of replies like these
It's people thinking if they started earlier or worked harder they would have been better than the artist in question. Ironically they're most likely older and not even close to the level of that guy.
>>2624157
Self validating through dismissing the skill of others. It's guaranteed that anon's art is far worse than that, but in his brain he justifies that comment because there are other people who are not him who he saw who may be better than said artist.
>>2624869
>>2624922
I think it's more along the lines of "It's not as good as the others artists here" or "It's good but is overshadowed by other art in this thread"
>>2616541
What the fuck is good about this? Level of irony this board is on is outrageous.

how to be a digital artist as described by Wei Feng (translated and paraphrased.)
>indulge in as much anime, manga, film, art, and videogames, as you can, and just draw what you see.
>literally do your absolute best. don't get lazy and half-ass it when you get burnt out.
>now do your best again.
>now do your absolute best over and over again until it becomes second nature.
>when you get used to operating at your maximum, make a note to NEVER draw anything badly. EVERY sketch, drawing, painting, etc. MUST be god-tier no exceptions.
>At this point you should be able to draw/paint anything extremely well without mental strain.
>>2624195
I never understood this. Who didn't draw as a kid? Did you seriously not make those silly drawings with stickfigures, house, flowers and the sun? It's like the best way to make a kiddo shut the fuck up for half an hour, every child draws....right?
>>2625627
Drawing and understanding what youre drawing are two different things. Drawing smiley faces for years is not the same as studying anatomy for years.
