(sorry)show style

>>2993312
Let's do nothing. You won't get your free art...
Work your "style" if you want an improved version of your art!

>>2993321
it's not even a big deal, your so cold at heart.

Why can't you let people express themselves and actually motivate them to make art?

>>2993321
You must be fun at parties.

>>2993324
>>2993327
to be fair i don't think anyone wants this board to get filled with these threads.
They are against the rules anyways? aren't they?

>>2993367
it rides the line between "asking for free work" and "an interactive thread for fellow artists"

>>2993367
The thing I feel like is if they really get outta control we need to put some filter in it, maybe if the OC has something interesting in it like some shadowplay, some proportion or pespective/foreshortening in it or if the design is something unique and non-cancerous

I want say create a general. But generals are cancer which kill the motivation and eventually people just keep shitting around each other on their own little space

Maybe we should just don't feed the bad ones, as long as someone doesn't draw their shitty OC the thread will eventually die

I really have mixed feelings, for a side those threads are productive and thats good I love them, but if people just come here to post their OCs 24/7 then we have a problem

Isnt this usually just bait/shitposting. Since when are people using this for free art.

>>2993380
are you calling the oc in this tread cancerous?

Stop.

Literally stop, you either are underage or retard.

This OC is trash in every possible way, not only the proportions and perspective are grossly bad, but the design hurts my eyes there is nothing pleasurable to look at, I have seem a lot of beginner work in my life and this doesn't even look like beginner tier it literally looks like someone just drew outta their asses their oc from their rpg-fanfic and what boggles me most is how you did this on a fucking tablet, there is people outta there with so many skill using just paper, you have a tablet but you can't get yourself the minimum self-discipline to make a decent looking oc? did you at least tried to make guidelines or construction? did you even sketched this shit?

I am all for productive threads, but this is where we cross the fucking line.

I drew this also.

Maybe your just exaggerating a tad don't you think?

>>2993386
Yea, I agree with >>2993392 even tho he was more harsh than necessary

See I also believe a lot in how important is the presentation/how you word yourself, just like giving critique, you can ask for /ic/ to draw with you as long as you are not painfully obvious and in-your-face

After that tho >>2993395 I'm almost sure this guy is baiting us, he probably hates these kind of threads so this is making this cancer thread to trigger us to report all threads

next level shitposting

>>2993402
After those two jabs at my art, I'm now convinced I must be mentally deficient in some way.

Thanks for that, now I have less reason to live.

>>2993405
First off, don't bring your pity part into this, your mental health has nothing to do with what we're discussing. Everyone knows there's passionately aggressive ppl on 4chan.

Obviously being bad at art doesn't make you retarded, it means you're untrained. Have you looked up human proportions? or poses? Try looking up what you're interested in, then practice it. It takes a long time to train your arm muscles and brain muscles to be good at art. You need the time and discipline, and probably some inspiration.

>>2993405
Ok I'm gonna bite

If you honestly are that bad, just apply basic fundamentals like construction, I swear to you it will look a lot better, also draw every single day, as much as you don't want its all about practice you can't get mechanical skill by theorycrafting, talent is a meme talented people just learn faster but this doesn't mean they never sucked hardcore before

If anything separate some pieces you think look good and inspire yourself from them, try to mimic their style at a certain level and eventually you add things of your own into it

watch this video if you can I guarantee you it will help in many aspects in your life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACYHERGmais

I'm honestly believing you aren't baiting me anon and when you eventually come back to post on /ic/ people will talk shit again, but don't take it so hard everybody takes shit on /ic/ the final decision to take a critique as important or not is up to you

>>2993405
Off yourself already

>>2993405
Don't be so dense just like the autists who scream ''wahhh you can't just draw other people's drawing'' you can't be sad when people refuse to draw your garbage shitty oc everybody here draws whatever the fuck they feel like it

It's not that, It's just I've dealt with this before. I'm always getting said that I'm bating, that I'm a troll, that I'm not even trying.

Believe me, I am trying as hard as I can.

Why would I waste my time trolling people online, what exact fruition I would get from doing this? It literally doesn't make sense.

I'm just having a hard time.

I get not wanting the board full of these threads but what is wrong with it, we are here to practice and these are a good way to get people drawing.

These threads only work if OP has no ego, is humble, and an absolute beginner.

It only just occured to me that this is a joke image and not a real book about drawing anime.

This tells a lot about existing books about drawing anime.

>>2993485
Just post in /i/. /i/ is made for casual/fun threads, and no one is (usually) going to trash your art unless you specifically ask for critique.

That being said, don't totally dismiss critique, and don't take it personally.

>>2993773
I had the first one like 15 years ago and I've literally never heard of her doing anything other than those two books. I wouldn't feel too bad about it.

>>2993777
Actually, she made two more books, one being another drawing book titled "How to Make Manga Characters" which is published by Collins Big Cat. It's not as memeably atrocious as her first two, but it's still on the level of those shitty "How 2 Drew Manger Gud For The Absolute Beginner X3" you'll find at art stores (I'm looking at you, Christopher Hart, you talentless fucking hack). The other is an actual comic, published again by Collins Big Cat, called "In The Game", which is more of the same mediocre shit.

She has a website, ktcoope.com, where she apparently does illustration and design work on commission. Though nothing outstanding, her current artwork is reasonably decent and mostly competent.
There are no mentions of her previous work on the site, and she seems to keep on the down low everywhere else.

I agree with the other anons. These threads should be moved to >>>/i/ so people won't get butthurt over it.

I still have these. I will never get rid of them. I ordered them in the early 2000s, when I was a child, and I thought they were comic books instead of how to draw books.They're not good guides, looking back on them with adult objectivity, but they gave me an actual passion to draw at, like, 8 years of age.

Pic related, it's my work from early 2015. Since age seems to matter on this board, I was 19. I'm animating now, so I don't do this style often. Trying to get an actual series off the ground within a couple of years, wish me luck.

Going to be honest, I don't mean to be rude, but might come across as it...still new here (well, kind of) so still learning how interactions usually work.

I don't know if you're just a super happy person with an expressive vocabulary who actually likes my thing, or sarcastically mocking how badly I draw. My work is far from good anyways. 8C

Nothing atm, but I am working on things. A few years back when I was a teenager and stupid, I thought I could do it all and wanted to make a full out series. Like 20 min long episodes. Because I was dumb. Some serious voice talent applied for the series when I put up the ad, I think about 150 people sent in auditions. Shit went down, though, and my health got pretty bad. Physical, and consequentially mental. I pulled a full retard and just disappeared without contacting anyone or telling anyone what was up. Some voice actors bailed on me, and the people who were supposed to do the music (a local band) never contacted me when they were supposed to, so the whole thing fell apart immediately after casting.

Would like to get something a little more manageable set up. Maybe a few 5-10 minute long shorts that set things up before gathering up a team to go full ham. People seemed to really be interested in the premise (criminals doing criminal things) and I've tweaked a couple of things so who knows.

Right now I'm setting up a few mock-stock shots for purposes of showing talent and trying to get people interested. I desperately need exposure, so once I get everything the way I like it I'm going to shill the fuck out of it (in appropriate threads...?). In the meantime, have a section of a picture I did last year that never made it past the final cuts. I draw more or less the same way now for animations.

Yeah a lot of those how to draw books aimed at kids teach you really bad fundamentals. I see people shocked that little kids can draw well but it's always if they have a good teacher.

>>2994401
nah, i like /ic/ i just don't post often since i don't really look for feedback, i know what to work on. i think it's great for aimless artists starting out and those who're on a level where they can finish full illustrations and have a hard time critiquing themselves. /ic/ is good for what it is, just don't forget to have fun drawing

i don't have a blog, i draw for myself
