>>7171245>looking forward to the rest of it, anon.Thanks, but that were supposed to be the last pages. I don't actually want to draw them fucking
>>7171231It’s good to be back! I haven’t drawn anything worthwhile in a couple months. And to answer your question, probably her. She’s the one they enjoy bullying the most.
>>7171245The more I think about it the more I realise That the "sinister" panel is a pretty bad idea. Will definitely change it.
>>7171247>>7171261>supposed to be the last pagess'all good, we all have our boundaries. >That the "sinister" panel is a pretty bad ideaI think if you tone down the intensity it'll do you wonders. I hope I'm not overstepping bounds with a suggestion, but maybe take a few of panels to show him getting up, her reaction being confused or ashamed about to pull away, then he pulls her in for the kiss in the catbox page? I will say that your comic is very well done, anon. do you have a blog or anything to follow? Would be great to see more of your stuff.
>>7171290>I hope I'm not overstepping bounds with a suggestionDefinitely not, I got additional feedback from another board and I also had to explain the intent behind the panel, so there has to be some kind of change. It seems clear that most people will not get it in the current state.As for your suggestion, I kinda want him to do it apruptly to set a contrast in relation to the rest of the comic, where anon is just overall really passive, so I'll have to convey it in a single panel. And also because I'm too lazy.And don't feel bad for suggestin stuff. It just shows that you care, which is cool.Here is my blog: https://x.com/_NoConcession_
How do I learn to paint like this?
look for books on traditional painting techniques, alla prima and basic use of oil paints, , based on this image you should study John Singer Sargent and read Richard Schmid
just train for a day
>>7170518don't listen to him, this is anything but alla prima. you cannot achieve that sharpness wet on wet even if you were working from a photo all day. how it was probably done in the old days>artist roughed in the pose, with the face (and maybe hands as well) blank>the client would pose and they'd get as much done as possible in the couple hours or less>finish in a studio over a month or so
>>7170514you learn to draw first
Any terrible experiences/stories of past or current clients?
>>7171113I dont mind doing it, but I cant post it on my page and increase my numbers with pictures of zelda turning into a horse
>>7171147This. If you retards dont do this then ngmi
Redpill me on scatfags
>>7171113Could be talking about a client at his job. Can't just refuse a client that your boss is giving you.Also for artists who this doesn't apply to it's the same reason you work a job you don't like. Money is necessary to survival. Sometimes you have to do things you don't want to do.
>>7171109>Take commission Idea you don't like>Not do said idea of the client, who paid money for it, cause its "bad">Thinking you are in the right
Is there an art course or book that shows how to shade like the GOATS but in digital? When I use fountain pens and map pens on paper, it's not hard. When I try to do it in digital I don't know what the fuck to do to get same results. In fact, mangaka who do digital art have dogshit shading.
>>7170069>just like toriyamaCounterpoint
>>7170069>toriyama is shit at storytelling...in the opposite dimension.
>>7167621this entire thread is retarded. its called rendering not shading. older mangaka used ink and zippatone/toner packs for everything. modern shitters use clip studio and blender and similar programs for it. some do mix of trad and digital. for soem artists theyll render with copic for grey tones or if doing color pages. others bust out gouache or water color. the issue with modern digital versions is they arent even inking the hatching or other lines. its all with digital brushes so you get the same look and generic linework with no variations. across so many no talent 3d tracers, it blends together and gives the modern shit look to all manga. the lack of imperfections in the linework and hatching is the major imperfection of modern manga. it also leads to the faux amateur look gege and chainsaw guy do. they are blatant 3d models and objects for everything but the chicken scratch lines and shit looking art let people forgive it somehow. like they believe its just bad artist and not deliberate shitter.
>>7170335>this entire thread is retarded. >Reply is nothing other than regurgitated advice from previous posts in the thread. >Somehow manages to get the information wrong anyway.

>>7171107to my understanding no such thing existsthe best I can offer is Mangadex has the first part of the book translated followed by the first three sections of part 2
>>7171076no there's so much more anon

Hi /ic/ Can you criticize my silent comic I still an amateur and developing my skills, practicing every day despite my busy university scheduleand your advices and criticism is really important for me because it's direct and real (not sugar coated like the one's I got from my peers) Thank you
Some panels are great And the others are kinda flat Try to maintain the same level of details in every panels
Since I follow the OP He posted this today with this caption :"Today is my birthday I'm always trying to develop my skills in drawing so I can make people happy and in the same time to express a feeling or opinionsThat's why to celebrate this occasion, here's a drawing of a girl holding a slice of watermelon#freepalestine"

Beg here, why have I not seen anybody on /ic/ ever mention Richard Smitheman b4? I've tried a bunch of different approaches to get my figure drawing to be competent but his method was by far the most informative to capture both gesture + anatomy.I do think you have to learn some of the fundamentals else where but once I felt ready for figures, his livestreams did wonders
I should do more gestures/ short figuresSeeing some really nice figures here in pencil, am I punishing myself with pen at the cost of being more dynamic?Maybe I just need to get bigger balls. >>7170041thankyou, I like how you iterate most of them, looks pretty effective
1m to 15m. I'm being able to do so much with the time that I think my next step is thinking of finding the most attractive sections of figures and doing more work in them, proportions are sliightly off but shouldn't be too hard to correct
>>7168005doodlin' while watching the 5th element, tough to draw on the couch. Went back today and filled in some blank spaces.>>7168198I never really took a course, kinda just cobbled together different lessons from all over the palce. Proko, Hide, Hampton, randoyoutuber69420, sinix, etc. looks like you're going with hampton, let us know how it goes!>>7168817nice studies>>7169828lookin' good!>>7170041these are good sessions, maybe take a little time after each one, and do some takeaways. like, "I learned this today">>7170862never heard of Smitheman, I'll take a look. thanks for sharing.>>7170919I like some of those faces!

Last one: >>7121414A bad sharpener will slow you down and ruin your pencils.A good sharpener is like a fresh breath of air, such as pic.
>>7170504The chink copied it and sell 20 cents each. Quality is the same.
>>7170805what proxy did you use
>>7170825Dejapan shipped them, but when I wanted to buy Holbein paint I used blackship. You have to email and ask before ordering for most art supplies
>>7165934thanks anon
>>7170638Do you use anything in particular to get nice solid layers with colored pencils? Too much grainy white gives it a kid look
Can someone explain how people complain about calarts then go around enjoying something like pic related? Both styles are kinda just ugly copy n past slop to me
>>7170203I still find it retarded how genshin has 8 characters with a loli body type, but no male equivalent
>>7170357This man understands.
>>7170811the mc and their boyfriend both have aids. I am not even joking
>>7170203the people complaining about calarts are not the same people who play genshit. The retards that enjoy this nuweeb shit are the other side of the coin of calartsfags. Once again, both sides are retarded and I'm right.
>>7170336They really did him dirty holy shit

>>7169894Looking good!THat lock of hair comming out of his sideburn instead of behind the ear is kinda weird but it's all pretty clean.
>>7169894too dark but still great
>>7168743You're great with contrasts, everything really pops.>>7169894Looks great! I personally enjoy painting animals and little landscapes in watercolor (probably because one can be a bit more "sloppy"), but struggle with portraits.
>>7168743I didn't catch the little girl on the path the first time I looked at it, and Im jealous of your contrast control. It is both technically good, and fun to look at as well.
Thoughts?

>There is one thing not to do, and that is simply to drift along with the daily routine, making no extra effort. You will soon find yourself middle-aged, having done nothing more than routine jobs, and being little farther along than you were years ago. The extra effort is the difference between the great mass of mediocre artists and the comparatively small group of very good ones.>And in Art, study can never stop. You will find sketches galore in the studio of the good man, with the paint quite fresh. The mediocre artist's sketches are old and dusty.>I have seen so many middle-aged artists still hoping, whose samples are frayed at the edges, and thumb-marked with time. Sometimes it has been a matter of years since they sat down and actually did something to give their hopes any promise. They are plodding their lives away at something they hate, and doing nothing about it. These are the men who never seem to have had a chance.

>>7170017I have no clue what I am doing
>>7171060girl on the center came out great!
>>7171093>>7171095>>7171098frick, I need to change my filenaming system somehow. someone can just impersonate me and do something horriblethe point here is to not gang up on you or bully you. I was much the same, when I started drawing. I wanted to master it in 2 years and get into calarts and break into the animation industry, all in one shot, like some kind of prodigy. Things don't work out like that most of the time. For me, it's been years and years of struggling and copying and trying to learn to draw. You think you've drawn a ton? Really? Have you drawn for 10 years? Often it takes 10 years to become a professional artist. You can do it in 3 years if you can summon the stamina to do studies for 8 hours a day (a true 8 hours a day, not a distracted 8 hour session.) Either way, it's a lot, and it's not good to assume that you are working hard enough. You can always work harder and learn more.My art actually looked exactly the same as yours for about 4 years, because I was just copying with no strategy. Tons of "gesture drawing" and "force drawing". Your work looks the same. Are you using an under-drawing? I suggest an underdrawing and strict construction. My advice was bad. Don't do the shape stuff. Use very strict construction, and keep your proportions very careful, while also observing accurately. Each drawing should take MINIMUM 20 minutes. Maybe 30 minutes. 2 years ago, when this general was /msg/, I spent 45 minutes copying a single anime face from Witch Hat Atelier. This is just the kind of effort it takes. When you've done a study, and you think you've done your best, drag your drawing OVER THE REF and check where you are off. Since you're kinda still at a beginner level, you may as well start over correctly and do the David Finch roadmap, combined with the Krenz Cushart Lecture. You're a neet, right? Do 3 hours in Krenz, and 3 hours in the Finch roadmap. >>7171112very nice anon
>>7171181thanks anon <3
I have serious reason to believe that I'm suffering from some form of profound mental retardation. Otherwise I can't explain why I've spent so many hours today planting these shadows. On the one hand, I think I'd be better off spending that time drawing, but on the other hand, it feels like a good exercise that makes me think about light and 3D space. Also, I think I need to do more of these with simpler shapes, just to get used to them and then move on to the next chapters, also it would be nice to do a big scene with nothing but boxes and overlapping shadows.I think it's a good thing that I want to do more of them to understand them, but it's a bad thing that it's taking me so long and I'm not adding complex figures yet.>>7169203Nah, it's just a regular hard round, as anon mentioned, opacity has nothing to do with a brush being hard or soft. I just added a little colour variation and lowered the hardness to 85.>>7169341Thank you.
