read the /ic/ sticky but avoid the actual board at all costs

>>35097333
you wanna see the larger shape, medium larger shape, medium shape, small medium shape, small shape, tiny small shape, tiny shape etc when you see a complicate construction, be it organic or inorganic

it comes with practice, get a book, or get a teacher if you want to improve fast and are willing to put in the effort

>>35097365
why avoid the board? are they not good?

>>35097469
Mostly it's just beginners giving other beginners shitty advice. You can post your stuff there and get decent critique, but take anything you get there with a grain of salt. Mostly you'll just be told you need loomis.

take pictures of cute 10 year olds and trace the pictures with pencil

>>35097520
>actually followed loomis for a while

was that an actual bad advice?

I tend to draw from my brain

>>35097553
No, loomis knew his shit, it's just not great advice to give

>>35097993
as in that it's too vague for the person who asked for the advice?

like how someone on /v/ will tell you to just git gud if you say you're stuck somewhere in a challenging game

if not what is it?

>>35097333
drawing anime is basically elementary school drawings mixed with body impurities. for example, wrinkles, wrinkly shirt, drawing imperfect knees, jaw line, wrinkle under eyes, etc.

you forgot a perfectly cute girl who also happens to have a 13 inches dick between her legs

>>35097365
>literally this

Also don't be afraid to copy what you see. I take anime stills and just start drawing them. Hardest fucking thing to do is to draw something good from memory. Also never trace my man. EVER.

Is this somewhat not completely mediocre for drawing purely out of your head?

>>35097993
Loomis is a meme

Just study your favourite artist using overlays
Don't mindlessly trace though
Learn 3D perspective
Learn to draw what you see not what you think
Drawing from imagination is near end-game for simple cute anime girlies

>>35099019
I got to an okay level not learning from anybody in particular, just drawing out of my head.

I bet I can draw a cute anime grilies out of my head too.

>>35099082
Ok qt, but avoid symbol drawing c;

>>35099180
what is symbol drawing?

also ref:>>35098656
still a immensely long way to go but I think it's above average for someone who never really learned it from anybody and just draw out of his head

>>35097333
who else /toostupidtodraw/ here?

intelligence doesn't scale all that much with your ability to draw well, it's not rocket science

When you draw something as a symbol, not as what it would look like from that angle etc

>>35099391
isn't anime entirely symbol drawing then? since they aren't real you can't draw from source

>>35099391
then isn't just about any type of fiction with bad perspective intended or not a symbol drawing?

is my drawing a symbol drawing?

Hey i guess your right
Check this masterpiece i found on deviantfart
>>35099479
It's not bad, but lacks form as in it looks flat. Try some form exercises and keep practicing
Google drawabox it's a nice resource

>>35099479
Oh, also anons picture here >>35097365 explains symbol drawing pretty well

>>35097365
also avoid /r9k/ at any cost as well

>>35099614

thanks mate the blue one on the left looks dead inside, co probably stands for congenital

>>35099019
If you only work by studying other artists all you'll do is midlessly trace. You need to understand construction. Loomis is a good place to start, even if it's just Fun With a Pencil.

>>35099525
I know the rules. I won't post shit here. Also I'm pretty bad at drawing, but I still get twenty bucks for a single pic.
Taking money from degenerates is just that easy.

>>35100319
there's no rule anon, you can post here if you want, you won't get tracked down or anything

Can you at least give me a reference point? Are they usually better or worse than this >>35098656?

>>35100484
Way worse. I'm not making quality, but I draw extreme fetishes like gore and snuff. There's a nice demand for those fetishes most regular furry artists aren't willing to draw.
I also make 3D pics in poser and stories. It works well too, and it's simplier.

>>35100696
20 bucks a pop?

I can use that kind of cash, how long for a piece?

I won't touch his business, I will aim for the high end market.

>>35101075
Depends. I ask between 15 to 40 bucks depending on the complexity of the content, character, and pose.
I'd say it ranges from 2 to 5-ish hours to complete a pic (I only do lines, I'm bad at coloring)
It's 2 to 5 hours if the commissioner is satisfied, that is. Custommers get one free modification once's the line is complete (even though I send them sketches first) , and it's 5/modufication after that, or for an alternative version of the picture (Headless, cum/nocum, blood/noblood, flare or knot inflated/non-inflated, and so on...)

expose yourself to many quality arts, research for in-depth drawing how-to's, copy other people's work in order to get used to it and eventually develop your own style, being passionate also helps
but most of all practice
if you work your ass off for hours on end you will improve
