Is making a sketch before draw is necessary? a friend of mine

What you are describing is the perfect example of wasted talent, if he is half as good as you are saying he is, he could "make it", but instead he is playing vidya, its not wasted time if he is enjoying himself right?

Its not ''talent'' you retard, its nothing more than developing any skill in life, all that happens is some people are more intuitive than others

Got a friend who is just like OP's, is a total brainlet nigger, can't even play mobas or card games, but on CSGO the fucker has godly aim and sick spraydowns with the AK even tho he plays with shitty internet and computer

And same thing on art, the fucker draws for like 4-6 years he can do most stuff decently and when I talked to him how he studied he was like:
>''I just tried to draw just like the animes I liked, then I moved on to real-life references''
>Do you use construction? you know the skeleton?
>''Nope, never understood that shit, draw a circle, then draw the other circle right? Never helped me in any way''

He streamed his work for me once, its 100% intuitive, he usually starts with the eyes, then face/hair, then moves on for the rest of the body the order change depending on the pose, and he is pretty consistent 2bh

He really enjoy watching other artists draw and shit but he never ever uses constructions

TECHNICALLY no. What method you use doesn't matter as long as the end product looks the way you want it to.

But you should sketch. Your friend is lucky. We aren't. We have no shortcuts. Sketching and learning fundies gives you a basic framework to work off of, rather than having to think of everything from scratch.

Though your friend DOES have a point when he says "draw for fun". Studying fundies doesn't get you anywhere if you don't apply them. Think of what you want to make, and then think of what you need to know to make it look the way you want to.

Talent by most delusional cunts on this board is the idea someone picks up a pencil and a paper for the first time and produce a cute 10/10 anime girl effortlessly without never ever sucking before, thats why theres that meme ''hurr durr hardwork can take you so far because someone with talent already starts there'' which is fucking bullshit because talent just means a more leaner learning curve
