fell for the digital art meme Anonymous 2017-05-30 06:58:41 Post No. 3001147 [Report]

wondering how tf to get used a tablet.
been drawing circles/other meme exercises for a couple days but still have trouble getting lines right. Also can't really write at all-- not sure If I should be able to (legible but garbo)

also how to lineart? My lineart literally perpetually looks garbo-- I figured I should be trying to make smooth lines in one stroke or something which gave me decent but time consuming results (lots of ctrl+z) but watching time lapses I see artists getting good effects with line completion ala traditional materials (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvQ5l0edsq4). Coming from traditional where all I do is meme with a pen when inking I'm wondering wtf I'm doing wrong here.

what must I do to have my art not look garbo? exercises/videos/books of use?

tyvm and sorry if answered somewhere

>he fell for the <$100 "beginner tablet" meme

Always makes me laugh. Is a weed whipper a good "beginner" substitute for a lumberjack in lieu of a chainsaw? Enjoy zooming in 300% to make a single line lmoa

You're fucking retarded :^) 2017-05-30 08:04:56 Post No.3001200

Just USE it for a while. There are no tricks, no shortcuts. I bet if you did a serious study of the op image, like spend 2 hours on it, you will be 500% more comfortable with the tablet.

Buy a Cintiq if your goal is to draw/lineart on digital.

Otherwise, draw/ink in traditional, and scan your shit it. Intuos/Bamboo/etc... are only good for digital painting.

t. I used to have the same problem as you till I dunked $1500 into buying a Companion 2. Best purchase I ever made as not only has it paid for itself by now with commission work, getting a tablet with a screen helped me really push in digital.
