How does /ic/ hold your pencil?
>>2747449
Weirdly, he just comes into my room, grabs a handful and stares at me.
>>2747450
Kek. Pls ignore the shit grammar. My bad.
>>2747449
Seems weird to designate the grips like that as if they are exclusively for one purpose. Usually people say overhand and underhand grip.
Wasn't there an anon that stuck a pencil in his urethra for one of these threads once?
>>2747498
Please tell me it wasn't pointy end in.
>>2747504
How would he draw then?
The normal way.
>>2747505
Impromptu lead piercing.
That and kegels.
>>2747505
Jackson Pollock style with all the blood spurting out of his dick I assume.
Get on my level you fucking scrubs
>>2747583
p-post work
>>2747449
>no rough sketch grip
Shit
on the side, far back for the block in. Also changing, depending on the issue.
>>2747592
>>2747616
At least have the decency of changing the filename.
I used to rest my pencil on the middle finger but I changed to holding it by the tip a while ago, back when I was death griping and it would hurt at the base because of how much I would bend the finger

>still use a pencil.
>>2747680
>not recognizing merc_wip
You are new here, aren't you?
>>2747696
No, you moron.
That's why I talked about changing the filename to the original merc_wip.
>>2747689
>>Still uses a pencil
What, did they become obsolete out of the sudden?

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Gesture Battles, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on CalArts, and I have over 300 confirmed projects. I am trained in gesture warfare and I’m the top illustrator in the entire industry. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will erase you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of artists across the /ic/ and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that erases out the pathetic little thing you call your art carrier. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can draw you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my pencils. Not only am I extensively trained in unsharpened pencil gestures, but I have access to the entire arsenal of my pencil case and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable art carier off the face of the industry, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

>elbow drawing
>wrist drawing
>distal phalanx drawing
Do you, per chance, use post-its as your drawing canvas?
>>2749121
Actually yes.
I have issues with "large" drawings.
I draw my environments on post-it sized boxes, to have a good vision of the composition.
>>2747616
lmfao
If you can't draw with this grip you're not gonna make it
>>2749171

does anyone here also fucking hate how scratchy charcoal pencils are? fuck, can't even watch lessons where they use them whitout getting the shivers oer that sound, i'm such a pussy
guess it's gonna be graphite for me
The correct answer is to switch between underhand, overhand and tripod, depending on what marks you're trying to make and what materials you're using.
>>2749085
fucking cut your nails
>>2749233
Charcoal doesn't look any good anyway.
>>2749265
that's just when you use it
like a g6
>>2749260

>>2749329
>getting this butthurt
Good. That's how I know you know you're being a lazy filthy ngmi.
>>2749393
That's not even me.
>>2749445
That's even worse. Kek.
>>2747449
>read Death Grips instead of Detail Grips
Anyway, to be serious I used to hold the pencil with the three fingers holding the tip, this lead me to draw moving the fincers instead of the wrist. Thankfully now I'm trying to change that
>>2749615
How to change, help me senpai.
>>2749744
Just stop doing it. Start holding the pencil like the pic in the OP. First times you will keep drawing with you fingers but do some basic warmups (lines, circles, boxes etc.) trying your best to use your wrist, elbow or arm instead of the shitty fingers
