/las/ Last Artist Standing

>>2883568
FAQ:
Something's broken, what do I do?

>The original developer of the site has taken a leave for quite a while, originally due to medical reasons. Progress on the site is almost non-existant at this point. You can try contacting him at @LavaFlake or emailing him at [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?

>Your streak will go back to 0 and you will have to start again. No other penalties.

How can there be a new Last Artist Standing challenge every week?

>There is no week system anymore, instead new users are given "streaks" based on the number of consecutive days you can submit without getting eliminated. (token losses do not reset your streak)

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.
there. kick rocks.

crappy animu artist in las #25435 here
am I making it?

>>2883657
That's pretty cool. It's a grand declaration of war between weak 1ers and the rest.
They have already so much casualities :^)

>>2883660
it's hard to tell from a study like that, the same result could be achieved by both understanding and robotic copying of values

the true test would be a drawing from imagination

How long will it take Proko to git gud at drawing from imagination?

I imagine :^) he's allocated a lot of time to grinding it after that stream disaster.

What are the odds he'll redo the stream some time later this year and blow everyone out the water?

>>2883568
Anon dont be a retard we got in troublw with the mods for spaming threads at least wait till game 8

>>2883660

The brow ridge and the right eye are the only thing you got correct.

The nose needs to be lower.

The entire left edge of her face is too far left.

Cheekbone is too low and you don't have the convex shape at the profile of her mouth.

Her lips are completely fucked. You didn't really look at them. they need to be bigger, expanding down and to the right.

Her chin needs to be lower.

her right jaw is off, needs to be further right.

Her ear needs to be expanded up and to the right.

If you just open your picture in one tab and the reference in another you'll see the difference swapping back and forth. Or use layers.

>>2883697
This kind of accuracy and attention to detail / nitpicking is only relevant if you are a portrait artist / hyperrealist and you aim to capture the exact same image.

correct me if im wrong

>>2883701
>only relevant if you are a portrait artist / hyperrealist and you aim to capture the exact same image.

Then what the fuck are you even studying? It ain't construction.

>>2883708
I'm not the original poster, if for example if your goal is a convincing likeness, then it's a waste of time to over-work a piece.

It is also possible that you change some features around to get a more appealing image.

>>2883674
some guy on /y/'s drawthread recommended me to do studies
I feel like I'm doing them wrong though by just copying.

I think I'm suppose to deconstruct what I'm studying by grabbing a bunch of references first of a subject, then being able to draw the subject in various angles.

>>2883695
meh, once bump limit has been reached, i see no real problem with renewing one of the most used threads this slow board gets.

>>2883725
Doing a study like this, you can still learn things like rendering, capturing likeness, and studying values.

The various angles thing would be a different study, you'd have to learn the basic construction of the head, and trying to build the ref girl's features by understanding the proportions and shapes.

>>2883695
>/ic/ gets flooded with literally dozens of shit threads every day
>mods throw a hissy fit over one of the few good things on /ic/ being remade a few hours early
Priorities man, who needs them.

>>2883718
Not the one you are answering.
What you said is true when you have a certain level AKA you know enough about anatomy to change some features around to get a more appealing image. The point is, >>2883660 doesn't have this level.
See contruction : it's contouring
See observation : confuse lock for eyebrow.

That's fucking awesome! Thank you NAF! I love this type of stuff, I think Loki did one before and it was real cool as well.

Hey Mathias, do you only do studies?

>>2883774
These are from the week one Battle Royale picture anon. They have different weapons in the movie though, Naf's look cooler.

>>2883848
I know, I used it as a reason to insult Choob.

>I’ve been overdoing it and my thumb tendons hurt but it’s a lot of fun. I’m not studying enough yet, it’s been so long with imagination only that looking at a picture feels like cheating
My thumb tendon is also hurting, and it's been like that for a while now, I've seen wrist exercises but what can one do to help with thumb tendon pains?

>>2883869
>I’m not studying enough yet, it’s been so long with imagination only that looking at a picture feels like cheating
This nigga has been saying this since the start of LAS. He looks at a picture for 2 seconds and then starts having muscle spasms and heart palpitations cause it triggers him so fucking much. I don't do enough studies or use enough refs either but jesus christ, how deluded do you have to be to think using a ref is cheating?

Lava had a rough life :(

dog man fuck shit

>>2883660 here
for now should I just be doing studies like I am doing?
or should I be doing something else?

sorry, I'm confused with anons saying this and that.

>>2883869
Holy shit, my thumb tendon is hurting too. Is this just the season or something? Never had this happen before.

>>2883890
Which is a shame because he is a late starter to art like me and a lot of others here, so his visual library is likely severely underdeveloped.

how do I get good as naf...

>>2883901
Naf was already good, so, you can't. He was born like that.

Why are Butts, Vusta and Tugelbend way more advanced than other lassies?

>>2884057
They draw more than 30 minutes a day.

>>2884057
they like drawing

>>2884057
I like Microteller ethical drawing more.

Some lassies have years of experience and are already gud when they join. See: FmMood, Anon313, Barcode, etc

>>2884094
Some anons have been doin las before las was even a thing.

Everyone here at one point decided they wanted to draw everyday, be it to get gud, for fun etc. And we all started at the same starting point. Its just a matter of when we started.

>>2884094
Gitting gud is a never-ending process, even those that seem experienced think their shit.

You have to have been born with the talent.

>>2884154
being good doesn't necessarily mean being good at everything t b h
Ruan Jia can't draw from imagination like KJG, and KJG can't paint like Ruan

There's so much different stuff to do with art that people specialize in an area, get good there, and then they can branch out from that place of strength, rather than trying to master everything at the same time right from the start

>>2884154
that is definitely something I have to work on, especialy expressive hand gestures

Are you being sarcastic? I can't tell.
Doing one thing first then branching out is a good way to work though, look at how Dave Rapoza's stuff has changed from when he first got noticed for his turtles, or Zedig going from solid but plain 3D fundamentals to becoming all painterly/moebius/ghibli and everything.

>>2884164
Being lead character designer at an animu pillows company. Thanks for sharing your dream.

Nyra wheres your reference from?

>tfw my mom finally agreed to nude pose for me
FUCK YEAH. I can finally draw from life. Hopefully the gains will be worth it.

>>2884212
Your mom finally has a use.
When are you delivering? Post ref.

>>2884212
How did you convince her?

>>2884212
Grats, got my sister to do the same a few days ago. Well she wore underwear but still.

>>2884212
>>2884222
Go to life drawing niggas. That's weird as hell.

>spent hours drawing today
>it all looks way too awful to put on LAS
Time to get to work I guess.

>>2884243
You are still stammering.
Ask your speech therapist to nude pose for you, it's the new hype >>2884212
>>2884222

>>2884218
wont post ref of her but she will be in my next submission, maybe some perspective anons will be able to pick her out
>>2884219
nah
>>2884220
First I just convinced her to model fully clothed for 5 min at a time, then I worked up to 30 min sessions and then eventually to hour long sessions. After that I talked her into wearing some more revealing clothes so I could study anatomy and she was a little reluctant, I just reassured her that all artists do it and there's nothing wrong with it. Then after a couple of months I just now convinced her to go fully nude so I could properly study her body. She wasn't too reluctant since I told her all artists do it.
>>2884222
Awesome man, it's super convenient. Try to ease her into going full nude, it's much more helpful since you don't have to worry about clothing.
>>2884228
It's not that weird is it? One of my friends actually introduced me to the idea and I didn't believe him at first but then he let me join in on a session with him and his mom. They were completely normal and we only focused on properly drawing her. Then I realized that it's completely normal and plenty of people do it. There's even an anon itt who does it with his sister. It's super convenient, helps you git gud and you get to spend more time with your mom. Win Win situation.

so whats goin on with that character collab

>>2884255
Datizm was supposed to continue it in the thread but he didn't post anything and it looks like maybe people lost interest. If any of you guys are still here, could you finish it up? It was coming along breddy nicely.

>>2884253
Well I guess if you are comfortable to be nude around each other to begin with, it's not THAT weird.

i-iinaa that's lewd

This desu. I get sad once or twice a week, when I'm alone and less busy at the weekend, and it works a lot better if I just let myself feel down for a bit instead of trying to beat it or work through it.

Your spacing and timing is fucked. There should be more frames and time spent at the top of the bounce and a little bit more at the bottom of the bounce when it makes contact, the middle frames should be stretched a little and you only need a few of them because the ball is moving so fast. The way you did it is that the ball moves fast at the top, slows down in the middle and then moves fast when it makes contact again so it looks like the bounce doesn't look right. Good job on the squash and stretch tho, it looks nice aside from the timing/spacing.

>>2885292
I think you should move away from straight painting a bit and focus on pen drawing. Learn how to construct the head properly and when you can do that learn about the skull. Vilppus videos on that helped me a lot. You should also do portrait studies like this but try to incorporate what you know about skulls and head construction when you do it. I.e. Set up a basic head construction and then all you have to do is change the proportions and mold it little by little to achieve likeness instead of starting from scratch.

But yeah, I think it'd help you out to study head construction and basic skull anatomy. You don't have to go the pen route since your goal is probably painting but drawing with a pen and rendering with a pen has actually helped out my painting even tho that's not my main focus but it's up to you.

I almost died again. Between Zelda on the Switch and my buddy's birthday I didn't have much time to draw. I didn't realize I hadn't submitted until 10 minutes before the deadline. Goddamn, I need to set an alarm for this now.

I have no favorites. I dont have the skills. Its been a year anon.. Its been a year.

>>2886111
Just keep breaking shit down into the most basic forms/ concepts. Short but intense specific studies. Everyday if you can. Recognize the cycle of learning, and get comfortable with the idea of some frustration. Master your limits, and walk away for a bit when it's too much. Unless you're a corpse, those skills will come.

We're gunna make it.

Appealing.
It's all in your honor to use one brush, but usually all your textures look the same. Your work will certainly take advantage of tweaking some brush presets, especially for skin.

>>2886392
Nice work anon. Now go do 100 more.

I know man, I just started using soft brushes and multiple layers, considered it "cheating" for a long time. Only recently realized how dumb it was, "no rules just tools" and all that. I think my skin looks more like skin now

>>2886466
skin doesnt look like that tho. the on the left is especially bad. ive never seen a skin tone that pink.

>>2886466
It looks more like skin, but you kind of lost your style. That's why i suggested you just tweak your tool so that you have smoother skin while keeping your flow.

>>2886469
The one on the left is probably an english girl after a sun bath.

>>2886469
I mean the texture became more skin-like, colors could use some work sure. Ref girl was pretty pink though

>>2886481
I'll think about style when I'm gud, now I'm just trying to get there and experimenting with tools

>>2886481
Left looks like it could be from a photo of a girl marching in a parade or something, I think that's the ref. but sunny day and white girl plus bounce light, anything can happen.
Also talk about skin tones a lot but it's only very relevant if you have them in a void.

Man I love this rendering style. It reminds me of Realism and how they idealized things so they looked better than they actually did. Mind explaining your process of how you get it to this kind of result?

I tried to emulate Kyle at first, pic related. Basically, after a rough sketch, I started to use more layers in sai, multiply for values, overlay for color/scattering, and luminosity for highlights. Also used the water tool for blending and rendering

For real. I just checked his blog and he's ranting about how no one knows how to draw arms properly and only he notices. He's been full of himself from the start and that's probably why he can't improve. I remember when we were in a stream once and someone posted a professional's artwork and lava just started nitpicking and acting like he could see all the mistakes.

People post on lavaflake but no one seems acknowledge each others work, no critiques given, no paintovers done, no compliments handed out, no nothing. Why is that?

There's some of that in the discord but we're lacking good artists. Honestly, I think it's time to advertise /las/ outside of 4chan.

>>2888245
Is the discord actually any good? I used to post there but it was hard to get a word in, you either get 1 response or ignored while the older people talk to themselves. The people seemed nice enough tho, maybe I'm just autistic.
