What do you have trouble with? Try studying Morpho or Anatomy for Sculptors if you need more detail on how things connect exactly. Morpho is a good start because there is very little text and if you copy all the drawings that include areas you're bat at you will develop more of a feel for it. Afterwards you can apply what you learned to photos by mapping out the skeleton and bigger shapes of the muscles

yeah deadspacedog, i remember a comic of her saying they actually meet up, beyond that and taking feet pics to support one of angs gofundme a few months ago she hasnt talked much about her, the last direct thing she said about the situation was a inconspicuous "hey im sad about a friend so idk if ill be posting much".

Last time she was talked in here some anons said it might be a null person? but nothing came from that and idk it stills boggles me that either the dad fucking is real and shes pretty confident that no one would ever dox her (even tough she claims that not only his dad had a semi successfull webcomic but he also has connections on the italian comic scene) or she was insane enough to make a whole persona of that.

Have you seriously never wanted to nuke your accounts? There can be many reasons why artists do it. Sometimes it's just to get a break/fresh start or to make clear that you're not in the fandom you made the account for anymore. I've also seen artists do it because they get too much unwanted attention (usually by english-speaking pinterest reposters) or too little (the mgong type I guess).

Yes, especially when you try to force yourself to do a style you aren't 100% good at or have practice at.

Especially if you've done multiple layers. I don't have skill diminishment per se like you are talking about, I have memory issues remembering what I used to make the photo.

I've liked reading graphic novels/manga my entire life but I noticed that pretty much none of the artists I have seen on the internet that try to get into making comics, like majoring in comics/graphic novel design at school or trying to publish their work online have never been able to make money from it.

Idk about France but Japan’s cost of living is low as fuck, you can rent insanely cheap apartments/shared living areas.

Early American comic consumers pushed a lot of people out of the fanbase and it resurfacing in the 2010s didn't help much because there was so much animated media for it that no one needed to bother reading comics because they only cared about one linear story instead of branches of American comics had.

The comic industry is dead as fuck in the US at least. If you wanna make comics your options are really just to do it on your own in your free time, either on top of a day job or with family supporting you. There’s barely any money to be made, especially with how rampant piracy is. It’s just a dead end “industry” that only the most passionate people pursue, and most of them get burnt out sooner or later.

In France graphic novels are extremely popular, domestic and foreign. I read a news article from this year that 1 out of 4 books sold in France is a graphic novel, and historical-biographical is the highest selling genre (ignoring manga) because they reach the widest audience. It got me thinking that yes, outside of kid books and manga in America the most significant graphic novels that sell here are biography/historiy-ish titles like Persepolis, My Friend Dahmer, and Maus. Or artists have some type of newspaper/magazine relationship like Adrian Tomine.

I'm so mad. I'm so pissed. Every time I get a commission, it's from a porn sick moid.

And it isn't enough that they ask me to draw derranged shit. No no, they start spamming my stream chat with how horny the pic I'm making gets them. They then pretend I'm in on it, and I just want to get it over with. But I need the money. My mods know I'm suffering and DM me to encourage me that once it's over the moid is probably too broke to ask for another comm, but it keeps happening. Why can't I get commissioned cute things? Why is it always sweaty girls and femboys with impossible anatomy? I draw shit like wigglytuff for fuck's sake.

Sorry I was phone posting so I didn't post caps. Here are some comparisons from an older mention on Kiwifarms. Black and white are from deadspacedog and the left is from her account, null backdoorho. There's more discussion in the Obscure Laughingstocks thread if you search "deadspacedog." You can find out null_backdoorho/deadspacedog is actually a white woman (TiF) from France from her similar art style on her main tumblr, polyglotplatypus. The biggest connection to deadspacedog is through similar art style (to which she made a piss poor effort to draw differently for her incest dad fiction, but it's still recognizable). Last time I checked a year ago, she was obsessively drawing stomach churning fetish porn of her south asian lesbian FGM victim OC (Robin, I think?) and serial killers sewing up the vaginas of women. I'm not going through her twitter to find and post that.

NTA, but I imagine it's the Pokemon and furries you draw that encourages pornsick moids to commission you. Both those fandoms are moid-heavy, so it makes sense that they'd be in your circles. Art style could definitely be a part of it too; someone who draws cartoony Western furries is bound to attract more of a moid audience than those who draw Toyhouse style furries. My advice, if it makes you so uncomfortable, is to straight up block them. It's the only way to properly curate an audience you actually want and respect (besides trying to change your style to be more appealing to women, switching fandoms, or drawing yumejo/fujo shit so only women are interested, but those changes might not be very feasible to you). I do these things and it doesn't hurt my income at all, in fact it makes me more eager to work knowing only women will commission me. I think a lot of artists forget that women are willing to pay a pretty penny for commissions just as much as men are.

I really appreciate the advice. I think the main reason I don't block them is because my income is so bad due to being afraid to socialize.

Apparently my art style is traceable more than I thought.

It reminds me of this weird art style that was everywhere in the late 90s and 2000s- kind of like a low grade microsoft word clipart. Picrel is the closest I could find to it but anyways it has been popular in the past, and grinding out posts (easy with that art style and skill level) and presenting yourself in a certain way (see "art hoes" or shitty post modern artists for example) will definitely help curate a following of normies.

Samefagging and off topic, picrel is by a local personal cow who's only claim to fame is being a originally based then troon pandering comedian and "artist" and is currently being shunned by the community for apparently being a goverment shill/plant when she attempted to run for council. Picrel is also the best looking piece in a series that was presented and sold in a fine arts state gallery.

I spent years doing observational drawings. It feels so soulless now. The moment I want to draw something fun and stylized my mind is blank. Also I realized I have no idea what I like to draw. I try to come up with an image I'd like in my mind but I just don't know. I don't even know what kind of lines and colors I'd prefer. It sucks.

Gesture studies. Gesture studies. Gesture studies! My go-to is https://quickposes.com/en . Doing these daily and trying to force yourself to comprehend your own usage of "action lines" will definitely help. Compiling PureRef collages of art you like with poses you enjoy also helps a lot.
Copying people who have the result you want is the fastest way to learn, too.

Different line weights, outlines in different colors, different poses and head angles, add a prop that they can interact with like a staff or sword. Make the lighting and shading interesting if you can. Even if the characters all have to stand like your picrel, you can draw them in twisted poses, leaning to one side, looking back, and so on.

Against my better judgment, I decided to skim through her account and found that she retweets way more yaoi than I would have expected. Some of it is like humanized Cars and some of it is disturbing (a lot of child and gore), but there's also straight stuff. She's really into buff goth dudes with tiny women, but also draws older woman younger guy porn and incest shit, It seems like she's almost self-aware with comics like picrel, but I don't understand how someone can have every degenerate fetish all at once.

What artists do you consider to be the best skill-wise? I know it's very subjective, but I would like to know everyone's opinion. Personally, i consider Yoh Yoshinari one of the most skilled artists alive. His style is extremely flexible and he can branch out from figure drawing and character design to mechas, animals, backgrounds and special effects. Going through his sketchbook always fills me with joy.

Look up principles of composition or gestalt principles. I studied that in my university years ago, I don't remember the books, but they were pretty much gestalt books. The concepts are very easy to understand, any half decent youtuber will cover it, find the ones who analyze paintings, it helps you to understand how it's applied to art.

I didn’t mean asking the artist directly, I meant asking this thread to see if any other nonnas get the same feeling. I’m hesitant because I’m certain some gendie twitterfags lurk on here and might make a callout. Also what I saw is 100% likely to get her shat on by twitter.

The artist is very openly in love with her gf. On one of her drawings of them, I came across the gf’s account. She reads Andrea Dworkin and made a tweet supporting radical feminism but in a vaguely worded way which interested me. Turns out she’s mutuals with a bunch of open radfems (but they make posts only vaguely shitting on tims/tifs/gendies so maybe they’re cryptos too kek. They also call moids, moids. Maybe some fellow nonnas lol?). Considering the artist lives with the gf and liked her posts, I find it hard to believe she isn’t aware. Before this I appreciated that this artist didn’t insert gendie/trans bs in her lesbian couples, and her yuri art actually feels like it was made by a lesbian who enjoys lesbian sex. So if she’s a crypto, fitting.
The only thing that puts me off is the gf calls herself a communist, which normally I wouldn’t care but I just find twitter commies particularly insufferable kek. At least the artist doesn’t seem to be annoying.

Used to work in an art storage warehouse that housed millions of $ worth of art and let me tell you the amount of broken/damaged pieces was through the roof, fixed with glue and stuffed back into their crate. Got to see some of the collectors apartments when we'd deliver and mount the works, met some of the artists, and it really disillusioned me on the fine art world. So many of the works were bought, stored, and never looked at - pure investments. Was fun to visit studios though and be like a shadow in this weird world, no one cares about you in your white cotton gloves, they just talk openly about everything, very fly on the wall. It's funny because the digital art world is full of petty drama and accusations but actual gallery represented artists are just as sensitive and difficult to work with - there's just much more money on the line, and someone has to carry their bronze cast 7 deadly sins fountain up 5 flights of stairs.

Maybe it’s my ego talking but I applied for a MA program in design and got put into a lower tier pre-MA program which would be fine but they’re only offering me their online course and still asking me to pay 14K. They have an in person version of this course but didn’t offer it to me and I’m pissed. I could get something out of doing the program in person but online will just be 14K down the toilet. I think my work at my current job is really unique and could offer a different perspective but because it’s not overly rendered Blender crap they weren’t interested. I’m just mad because I’ve always felt like my art is really good anatomically but my rendering is lacking and it tends not to draw interest while the inverse always seems to really pique people’s interest.

Idk if I just associate it with an annoying fanbase or what…the intense praise for the art style triggers my obnoxious contrarianism.

I hate the style too. I recognize that overall it's a technically well executed show but I despise all of LoL's characters - especially Jinx because she's a loli dollar store Harley Quinn - and it's not something I can put aside to watch for technical merit.
Thinking about it more, I dislike the grimy look of the rendering finish, which includes the color palette (at least from the trailer), and the facial proportions remind me of Enrique Fernandez (excellent shape design but fundamentally unappealing to me). I just wish it were possible to have a conversation about these types of nuances without other artists taking it personally that you're not into the same shit they're into.

''you need to know the rules to break them'' anime faces are just simplified forms of realistic faces, you still need to know the fundamentals to draw them. So many westerners struggled drawing anime faces because they see them as flat planes rather than 3D ones, they don't see the dot nose as the simplified version or a 3d nose, but rather as just a dot. Manga materials has a very good video explaining face simplification.

I'm not completely disagreeing with you, but the original argument was that the anime style was same face moeblob- it can be yeah, but to dismiss anime as a whole because of that is silly when other artists and styles do the same. And in the case of Satoshi, while he does mostly draw ugly men and pretty women, his work shows that he can draw unconventional (to anime) and/or ugly women and attractive men (see his work in Seraphim)

NTAYRT about Urasawa’s women, but I was pleasantly surprised reading the latter arcs in Yawara. There are some women with different features as minor/side characters, but they introduce a couple new female characters as rivals to her. My favorite is Jodie(the big redhead). She becomes Yawara’s opponent-turned-close friend. She has a life of her own and a boyfriend. The one with very short hair is Anna who (iirc) is built up as the strongest opponent. I’ll never know what happens though because english scanlations stopped years ago, but Yawara’s friend (with the squinty eyes) seems to get more focus later too?

I honestly cannot recommend reading the first parts of the story though, it feels like a totally different manga and has annoying forced panty shots and creepy moids. Also Yawara’s main rival in those is a typical rich pretty anime mean girl.
I actually agree with you that Urasawa needs to improve on diversifying his women though, specifically the ones who get main roles. I’m disappointed I have yet to see women even close to Jodie and Anna’s caliber again in the stories he made after Yawara (and Jodie and Anna aren’t even that amazing, just decent/okay portrayals). He goes for basically the same conventional anime girl face for the most important female character in each of his stories. If the “most important” female character has unconventional characteristics (like a hooked nose), it’s in a very male dominated story where she’s not a prominent character.

fujos who transition from drawing yaoi to more typical heterosexual content fascinate me. Do you remember that one creepy artist who drew those strange kid John Connor/Terminator shipping artworks? Well, somewhere along the line she started drawing a female version of Terminator and began making shipping art of female Terminator with John, the T-1000 and Sarah Conner. She also recently created ship art of Paul and his mother from Dine. Although she still makes and retweets yaoi as well, so it's not a complete change either.

But still most of what I draw and post is not myself like Cole. She is so full of herself. This is her bio:
“Yes, you have permission to take inspiration from me. Under one condition: Assure what you create is true to you.”

Anons, what do you do when your art is stagnating or even devolving? This is the case with my commission work. No one has actually complained but sometimes I fucking loathe what I draw for commissions, it's objectively wonky, I used to make better stuff but for some reason I'm really struggling to keep up the quality. I've reached a point where I'm ashamed and I wish I could just delete my commission account.

I've been paying to enter contests and competitions here and there and, aside from one, have been rejected. Starting to wonder if I should even bother because from what I've read, the fee money I paid is just being used as award money for the winners so it feels like all the rejected artists just serve as fodder. I also imagine I'm being screened out because I only have a small following. It's a bit demoralizing to think about. My professors kept pushing my class to enter contests and now I'm starting to think it's probably another outdated boomer thing they're advocating. Am I not wrong in thinking this?

I think mgong is just fascinating. I agree with >>1932516 that it's fun seeing a (skilled) artist who seemingly is able to draw whatever comes to mind, which definitely takes a certain level of skill and confidence in your work. Saying she's 'not that good' is mostly cope. I follow quite a lot of Chinese artists and she's far from the only one that will randomly have meltdowns, I've seen some even outright say they have BPD. She just stands out more among them because of her particularly unhinged OCs.
This is more meta to the art salt thread in general, but I always think it's funny whenever this thread devolves into another "all anime art is bad actually" tirade because I've yet to see a single one of them finally show an example of art they think is good that is actually really impressive. Like >>1932852 could be amazing if I could actually see what the fuck was going on.
Same goes for the 'women always have to be pretty' thing. I don't actually disagree, but if we're going to be honest the most common way of making a character more diverse structure (body or face) wise is deviating from the beauty standard.

Question to anons here - do any of you have an art rival? Like someone who works with the same genre as you and is around the same age and similar experience that you "compete" against in your head.

I feel this so much. Something about traditional is satisfying and fulfilling on a totally different level to digital, even when my digital art is 99% of the time objectively better. Like taking a pencil or brush to paper, no screens, just goes right to the soul. Traditional activates more of the senses-the smell of the materials, the varying textures, etc. Plus something about it makes me feel like I'm a kid again playing with crayons, totally disconnected from screens & comparing myself to anyone. And then even after the piece is finished, a file in my computer just doesn't feel as "real" as paper or canvases stacked in my room.
However my love of the process of traditional art is hampered solely by the lack of a transform tool/liquify, lol. Like I'll work for hours on a traditional piece and then when I notice a proportional flaw, or some other flaw that could be fixed in 3 seconds in digital, it kills me inside.
But the flipside of that - does anyone else feel that digital triggers a ton of perfectionism and decision fatigue? Like I often cannot stop constantly flipping the canvas and nitpicking minor errors until the piece is a far cry from it's original charm. Etc ad naseum with all the brushes and tools. It's ironically freeing to NOT have all these options with traditional. But I feel the same way going to restaurants with big menus so maybe i'm just mentally ill kek

There are two artists online that are the same age as me that I "compete" with in my head. They are both, much, much better than me and are very talented. I used to be envious of artists who were better than me while being either younger or the same age as me. I used to be very neurotic and looking at those artists made me want to quit (I used to block them lol). But, I realized at some point that that envy was killing my passion for art. So I forced myself to change the way I think about it, change my feelings into motivation so I'll develop my skills. Genuinely helped so much, I can actually focus on improving without seething with hatred over everything I hated about my art. It's a healthy mindset to have, and I don't think it's poisonous unless it turns into a vendetta.

For many tiktok zoomers her art is an introduction to 2000s cartoon styles. Her art looks cool, is easy to copy and she has stated that she doesn't have any issues with people doing that so the popularity makes sense to me. She was already somewhat popular for mostly on-model jojo fanart, then she starting changing the designs and style and people started liking it a lot more but didn't need to know jojo to follow because she was basically drawing OCs at that point

Ironically, the more extreme a fetish or fetishes an artist has the more likely they're virgins or have had little actual IRL sexual experience. They literally let pornography online supplement actual healthy sexual experience and development. There's a reason most nerds online will label themselves asexual but then have a weight gain, vore, mpreg, piss and rape kink combo. It is rare for someone who's had a normal sexual development to have this. I have seen that happen way too many times to count. I call genuine bullshit on Null saying she wants that to happen to her, she reeks of try hard insecure nerdy woman who consumed pornography from such an early age that nothing vanilla gets her off anymore hence why she is now jilling off to clit removal, developed and extraordinarily unhealthy idea of sex, never developed the shame to combat and grow from this damaging perspective, and possibly uses edginess, pornography, and being horny to supplement an actual personality. This is so textbook it's not even funny. Pornography truly is a poison for the mind abnormalize what would've been just normal nerdy women.

I don't think asexuals don't exist but not in the sense a Tif would think they do. I think most traumatized women affected by sexual violence can experience it and want to stay away from anything sexual as a way to cope so they identify as asexuals to label their discomfort but even in that assessment I could be wrong and it could be a different terminology for it but one thing I can certainly say that null is just larping and I'm horried to think that she thinks gential mutilation is kinky since actual women face it against their will in alot of african countries I'm just disgusted by her

It's a female artist, nonna. I know because I remember her posting her tits on Twitter a lot in the past, kek. I kinda like how she draws the clothing in this very clean, straightforward way, but yeah, she has a perfect soulless animu style for the type of games she worked on.
To answer your question, the only thing that I took out of AI was reflecting on the contrast, levels and a bit on saturation of my drawings. Other than that, when I tried to replicate some AI shit I just realized that all those nonsensical details the AI adds are too distracting for me, and if I tried to fix it the entire image would start to fall apart. Studying and replicating art made by human artists works much better for me.
AI images are perfect for the current algorithm of just looking at an image for a second and then scrolling past. It has enough going on that if you only look for a brief moment your mind will fill the image in your head but the more you look the worse it will get. Personally, I prefer to prioritize people that can actually appreciate my art instead of those addicted social media scrollers.

Because women are socialized to be desireable for men. A lot of women, specially nerdy women, feel like they arent deserving of love unless they look like those plastic kpop girls. So instead of being like moids that draw generic protags, faceless protags or downright ugly bastards, they draw the protags/self inserts as male approved bimbos. Male sexual fantasies revolve around nerdy/average guys getting a hot 11/10 bimbo who loves them for who they are. It's fucking depressing. I feel like that's also why so many nerdy women like ugly characters, they feel unworthy of hotter male characters so they attach to the ones that they could realistically obtain.

There's something about art made by people who draw very poorly yet have very clear passion behind what they make that makes it incredibly appealing (was going to say men, but SoapOpera46 and captainhowdy have the same appeal). Interesting how the reverse of that, great skills but no art autism, is always bland and unappealing.

i agree, and also mixing japanese elements with western ones, it gives the world a very unique feeling that makes it stand out amongst the sea of all western inspired or all japanese inspired games/anime.

Nayrt but I can't agree more nonnie. Picrel is the promo art for a visual novel I played where the in-game art was somehow even worse than ZUN. Yet this game was one of the greatest masterpieces of pure schizophrenic autism I have ever witnessed that the art grew on me so much and even contributed to the feel of utter ugliness and despair the author was trying to convey (literally she is De Sade come to life again). It really inspired me not to care about art quality in media anymore and valuing instead the pursuit of the author's pure unadultered devotion to their idea.

Sage for non-milk and sorry if I'm being too salty, but I was checking one of the convention artist discords and I feel like these people are being delusional and giving bad advice. They're acting as if hobby level drawings with frankly VERY wonky anatomy should be priced the same as an "average wage" worker. It's not an attack on the person who made them, but more so on the others for giving bad and unrealistic advice. The person hasn't ever done a single commission before (despite saying they're opening them "again") and the others are just screaming about the prices being "too low", when clearly no one even wanted to pay that much for them! The reason artists deserve pay is because they put in the effort to get good, but this person just isn't at that level yet. It's not fair to make people pay full price for your "still learning how to draw well" drawings. Most educations have a practical period where you go and do work for free as part of the training for the job, before you're good enough to actually get paid for your work.
This is just one single example of it, this is a thing I keep seeing over and over and it annoys me (and no, they're not just kids most are adults).

These people should learn that labor costs isn't the only variable defining a paycheck, but also the amount of demand. Selling commissions is being an entrepreneur so you putting in hours into something is always an investment and thus a risk - you might spend 5 hours working on one piece and get pocket money for it because that's how your clients value your work, the labor committed doesn't transfer directly into minimum wage. If these people want a solid wage they should seek employment from industry jobs instead of struggling to pay their rent by trying to charge $100 for a beginner hobbyist level headshots.

But the thing is people are NOT willing to pay, hence why this artist has never gotten a single commission. The others are frankly being cruel by telling her to raise her prices (assuming she wants commissions) because it will put even more people off from buying it. If it was maybe 10 euro I'd say it's a totally fair price for what you're getting.
>>1939018
>the retards gassing them up better be the ones to commission them
In 99% cases they don't, in the last 1% cases they do it to prove they're right, expecting the other person ("friend") to do the same for them as they (try to) sell the same level of art at a similar price (meaning it's essentially just a free art trade).

While I agree with the other anon that color can definitely be learned, if all fails there's tons of artists who made a career our of b/w art. Think of graphical artists like Kollwitz and contemporary comic artists or illustrators like Nico Delort. It's okay to focus on what you're good at without spending effort.
Also I think when people have a real affinity for specific color effects I suspect it might often be connected to biological foundations like your gender or specific mutations and you might simply not have that.

okay there's anime style illustrators that work b/w or just basically color a monochrome base but I gather it's not what you aim at. Then just straight copy what you like until you get the hang of it. do digi artists still post recordings of their whole process? I am old and pretty much learned color via oekaki, it helps to see where other artists apply which effect and where they lay down color more in an alla prima way. I think good color is more often a result of experimentation than learning color theory. A watercolor book that I like that is about finding the points where colors start creating interesting vibes and tensions is "making color sing" by Jeanne Dobie, check it out (imo watercolor instruction suits lots of animu styles.)

Asking for $100 for a headshot of that quality just doesn't seem reasonable. While I understand the need, there are better ways to make a mark than just raising prices because someone said so. When I was younger and started off doing comms everyone insisted I jack it up. My art hadn't yet reached that point where asking for a hundred bucks made sense. Highly recommend working on fundamentals first before investing in comms. You'll net better clients and saner commissions in the long run.

The way I see it, when it comes to commissions it's less about the quality of your art and more about how much you can get away with charging. I bumped up my commission prices to 200$ a pop because I wanted a break from drawing and people are still paying for them, so it's a reasonable price even if I'm not an amazing artist by any mean.

That's actually a good tip, I'll try to practice that. I always struggle because, to me, picrel is also kinda in the same ballpark, but my brain doesn't register it as desaturated. When I try to replicate it, it because an ugly, muddy mess. I love those clean, neon pop of colours, but I do struggle to apply it.

is there anything i can do to find her??? i don't have any of her art saved, i don't remember her username but i distinctly remember what her art looked like and the exact details of several of her artworks

I posted this as a question on ic but since no one was willing to answer there (apparently they're too busy posting in the disgusting loli thread) I might as well ask the same question here. So I have been an artist for nearly a decade and have been involved in the art community for just as long.
A question I've always wondered: Why do famous artists act like such assholes and look down on the idea of taking commissions from their followers, even when you are willing to pay well and above their price range?
I have been drawing for years, yet admittedly I still do struggle when it comes to outfit designs for my characters. Sometimes I find myself having the idea for it in my head but just not knowing how to go about formulating it on paper. I was struggling with designing an outfit for my fantasy anime girl OC for half a year until I buckled down and decided to commission another artist on social media who specialized in drawing fantasy anime girl OCs. And with just one commission they managed to fix all the mistakes I never would have realized had I not asked them for help.
Now I find myself struggling with drawing a sort of shounen-inspired fantasy outfit for my male OC. And there was a popular artist I found on social media who was offering commissions to draw character sheets for a while, but mysteriously they took down their commissions post not even an hour after they posted it. This is an artist who is in the industry but even when I sent them a DM asking them for simple art advice they were too stuck up to answer. What is it with famous artists acting like they're too prideful to take commissions, when practically EVERY artist starts out their career with doing commissions before they develop the acquired skill to be acknowledged in the industry?
And before any of you guys reply to my thread with a stupid draw m0ar answer, I will tell you that I have already done that. I am practicing the fundamentals everyday, copying drawing random fashion references everyday, even spending hours admiring shounen art that I like and trying to observe their outfits yet still I'm getting fucking nowhere. So there's that.

Popular artists are…
stuck up for not wanting to take commissions? Is that what you're saying, essentially?
No one is obligated to keep their commissions open indefinitely. They may be busy working on other projects and don't need or have time to take them. I wouldn't get caught up in a mood like that. Just keep searching for another artist, there are still tons of amazing ones with commissions open.

>>1939266
I do find this kind of cruel and stupid and sometimes I wonder if it's a way to keep an artist who's new delusional about their pricing so they keep raising it hoping for a commission and then never getting anywhere because it's culling an artist with clearly weaker skill.
It's also just that artists suck at being honest with one another about skill levels. It's all 'positive vibes only' until someone fucks up and tells the harsh truth kek

Bad customers, Nona. After a while, every artist is bound to get hundreds of commissions and they remember the worst ones.

I'm not gonna answer you because I already gave my answer on that thread kek.
If they didn't want to do commissions in the first place, then they shouldn't have made an announcement at all and bothered people with hope. Plus I don't like to mingle in a bunch of art communities online because frankly a lot of people are amateur artists and don't know any better themselves.

Kek so it's a popular industry artist and the only reason they deleted that is because they sensed you'd want a commission and they hate you too much to allow that. It has nothing to do their popularity getting them more requests than they can actually do in that one hour and you simply being too late. And I don't know if you've ever received a message on twitter or most other social medias, but if you aren't mutuals it first lands in the requests tab that people have to go out of their way to click on which can lead to it going unchecked for weeks at a time.

Artists don't owe you anything. They don't owe you help, advice, commissions, nothing, even if you were willing to pay. I've had multiple strangers on social media prodding me to hold their hand through their own projects and then get offended when I'm not interested, I just genuinely don't feel like dedicating an entire project to people I don't even know which is why I don't take commissions. I work an industry job that pays my bills and do online art on my free time dedicating it to doing only what I like since I'm not looking to make a profit. I'd imagine that to be case for a lot of artists. You calling someone not willing to be a private tutor for you as being "stuck-up" and sperg about how artists are stupid fags who deserve to be replaced by AI speaks volumes of your attitude and why they're not willling to helping you.

I don't know why but I really like these type of drawings. The fact that they have been made only using a brush as basic as the hard round brush makes them simple but at the same time appealing.

i can’t really point out anything in particular with traditional artwork, but if it’s boring, bland, and activates nothing in your mind but is constantly praised as “high art” in art classes and academia (with the exception of female-created art that’s obviously shown for education and awareness) then it’s definitely made by a man. artwork made by a woman makes you go “fuck yeah!”, you can tell it’s made with soul even if it’s completely ugly as shit and not palatable or enjoyable to anyone or most people like for ex. vaginal art and 60s-70s feminist body photography. like look at picrel, this ugly shit does not make me wanna go fuck yeah, it just makes me think this moid couldn’t be bothered to draw decent pictures of humans because he’s lazy. oh and also if they rip off styles from other women and minorities like this asshole has probably done kek. if they’re culture vultures or create a “style” where all they do is mass-create and mass copy like andy warhol, it’s definitely a moid. if it’s mass-produced, overly palatable to trash people’s taste kind of like modern furry/porn art or those repetitive, boring looking portraits they used to make of old royals and politicians it’s by a man. if it’s overly sensationalist, controversial and hypersexualized to the point of tasteless and absurd parody it’s most likely made by a man. i’m sure i’m gonna get made fun of because this isn’t traditional traditional but traditional-modern art ig. if the man is naked, masculine, unrealistically attractive like in renaissance statues where they try to imitate greco-roman aesthetics, it’s made by male faggots who were channeling porn into church-mandated art because they likely would have been stoned for being outright gay. TIFs don’t usually make shit most people enjoy or want to like, kind of reminds me of fujos and what they like and why they like it which puts most people off. most of it is just based off of intuition

If you don’t have the apple pencil then yes, I would. While ipad art capabilities are matching up to industry standard, computers remain the default for a reason and I find it far more easier to work with in terms of multi tasking, keeping as many windows as I like open, file navigation, and more. Plus, you can pirate whatever art program you want onto your computer as opposed to paying 10 cuck bux if you want some brush set exclusive to some art app. I do a lot of art on ipad but I always prefer computer. If you’re worried about the lack of a direct screen connection (like a screen tablet), you’ll get used to it so fast, it won’t be an issue.

Absolutely, especially if you do not have an apple pencil. As much as I love drawing on my ipad, it's way weaker than my computer, the layer amount limitation is killing me sometimes and i'm also out of storage. Although, it might be challenging to draw on a regular tablet after drawing on a screen tablet, so be ready to re-learn. Possibly, you might look for a tablet with touch function, i've never had one, but i imagine it might help if you often zoom in and out on the ipad. Good luck!

We've already had this discussion several, several times in past threads, we even had a short version of it before in this thread, you're not bringing anything new you just sound like a illiterate tard. We know Japan is culturally gross and outdated and backwards in many ways, the only reason we compare modern Western art to Japanese art is because East Asian artists (maybe except Korea) have better drive to create better artwork because of their culture, it's really not that deep. And Western writers put their fetishes in "child-coded" animation and comics all the time, John fucking K and Totally Spies are a good example. Also I think Japan has better marketing than you think it does, something like Poppee the Performer seems like a kid's show from the outset but was marketed to adults and put on a very late timeslot, and that's a very tame anime imo. Plus the different manga magazines directed to kids. Not saying lolishit or any of the gross fetishy misogynistic commonplace shit isn't represhensible and shouldn't be banned by the UN (god I hope it does) but you sound very ignorant for how hard you're raging.

There’s nothing groundbreaking about mind-breaking physics/anatomy with thot influencer anatomy and horrific same-face syndrome.

I could make a plethora of anime characters who fit that mold, you watch one show/read one manga and you’ve practically watched and read it all. All of it fucking sucks and the reality that female IG artists have to make the same repetitive big-boobed anime girl over a landscape when they clearly have untapped and underrated talent me skills that nobody cares about unless they draw cartoon porn is deeply saddening.

I honestly like the art, I also don't read too hard into who art is pandered to because it just ruins everything for yourself. When it's obvious porn, I don't like it, but this type of cutesy sexual pinup is adorable. The style isn't going to be like the pinup in America and western countries because that's not the type of sexualized ideal in Japan, weird youth stuff always has been. That's why I'm not going to get mad over the obvious and other anons shouldn't either. I keep seeing the same "I like the rendering and style, but not the coomerism" which..

i'm not an expert or anything but what gave the characters depth is the way the lines followed the curvature of a circle if that makes sense (like how the eyelid follows the curve an eyeball). you could try draw a sphere/circle and using it as a guideline to how lines interact with shape.

Pinterest isn't all that bad if you know what you're looking for. I typically use the search function and because I am an endless stroller I can clear unwanted shit from my recommended in just a couple hours. Pinterest is really good not for random scrolling, but for inspiration and brainstorming where you know you will be spending a good deal on there. I also think that saving pins of things you like filters out unwanted shit better. Yeah, it's not as good as it used to be but I find it infinitely better at idea searching than all the other platforms I use as well as Google.
also if you save an image that can't be backwards searched on Pinterest you can use Google lens to find the origin post of it typically

What do you think about adopts? I thought about buying them, but I don’t have a reason for it. Most artists have a policy where you can’t use them commercially which defeats most purposes of buying one. This may be bitchy but when I see an adopt I like I just steal colour schemes and pieces of it i like KEK it’s not like the original artist can do anything about it besides seethe behind the screen. It does seem like a good way to make quick money besides commissions though, I see generic adopts going for some good change and there are high bids for the unique ones. I hate drawing for other people and I like designing original characters but never have a use for them, so I’m not complaining. I thought it was a deviantart donutsteel furry thing but see I some cool and appealing designs on toyhouse. I’m thinking about selling them. Do any of you nonas sell or buy adopts?

I think of them like virtual trading cards, the popularity of the person who made them (casin0s, picrel, is a good example) and/or the amount of art you get out of a adopt the more it'll be worth.

As a concept they're pretty fun. Since I can draw I don't "need" them, so for me to buy one I would absolutely want the "rights" to the design to use it commercially. At least on a smaller scale. I get that they don't want a big company to pay like $10 and then use it to sell for millions, but if I'm a small content creator who, for example has a podcast or youtube channel, and I buy one to represent a character - I'd want to be able to at least sell some merch of it. And if I have more art produced of the character (by me or someone else) I'd want to be able to sell that as well.

Confession; never have I at any point thought varying lineart weight made the art "better". It's only ever been just as good/bad, just with slightly different lines. Sometimes I even think it looks clunkier and more distracting in the supposely so much better "after". I feel like it's one of those things that everyone is told is the "correct" way to do it so everyone repeats it without questioning it, but real life doesn't even have lineart so it's not like it's a true "fact". It's just a different style to me.

I love when art has lineart variation. It can really help make an artwork pop or give it more depth. Art doesn’t /need/ line weight, but there’s an understated beauty to it that can enhance the piece (if you know what you’re doing). The variation between weights doesn’t have to be exaggerated either, it can be subtle too- like when sketching with a pencil and you put more pressure on the areas of focus, or when you draw long confident strokes that taper out at the end.

>>1947399
>i dont know why westerners parrot this, japanese artists tend to
Kek, just say you prefer the style like a normal person and not like a weeb. I can think of a bunch of western art that uses no line weight variation and looks worse for it. Look at any modern cartoon, or original ppg vs reboot ppg, or “tfw ya style develops” lol. Not saying lack of line variation is bad, but turning it into a west vs east thing is just plain nonsense.

Anon, please. Varied line weight isn’t that rare in cartoons. I may have over-generalized using the word “modern”(moon girl and modern mickey shorts for instance vary line weight), but I still believe that the type of lineart on the right is very overused in cartoons. Not every cartoon looks bad with it, but many cartoons with it look bland and sterile.

Also, samefag but i wish we had something akin to a ''doujin'' community in the west. I feel it's really hard to find communities that are for hobbyists only. Everyone is trying to make money off their work, which is perfectly fine, but i wish there was an alternative for people that dont. I know fanzines are a thing, but as far as i know a lot of those are made for proffit or clout and are a bit more limited than normal doujins or game doujins.

This ties into a pervasive frustration I have with the art and writing community, that everything seems to come back to marketing yourself and "building a brand." I understand that many people are trying to make a career off this so that advice is valuable to them but damn.
Like I'm making a graphic novel series at the moment, and it seems like the majority of advice from fellow creators I've seen online comes back to "publishers don't want this!!" or "this will get you more readers!!" or "this (artstyle/trope) is overdone/cliche!!" Like.. I just want to make art I enjoy and tell a good story. For myself mostly, but if others enjoy it that's great too.
Someone even got angry at me for putting the story online for free because it "brings down the value of artists and makes people think we shouldn't get paid for our work." I've also seen fellow creators strip their work of its individuality in order to make it more palatable to publishers and/or followers. I almost want to say would it be so bad to do this as a hobby with a separate day-job instead of killing yourself to fit into this box ?
Maybe my memory is bad but it seems like 15-ish years ago it wasn't this bad. I remember oldschool dA where it genuinely felt like communities of hobbyists who just love making art, not people clambering over eachother trying to build a brand and market themselves

Why is it so hard to understand? People both need and want money, and if it's possible to monetize something you already like that's enough reason for many people. The reason doujin communities thrive in Japan so much is because of two main reasons. First, there's an unwritten rule that you shouldn't make money of fan content, no matter how many billions the IP makes. So small merch like keychains is often only a bonus that goes with the doujin or artbook. Secondly, for Japanese artists there's a way to branch into proper commercial work like doing work for mobages as many popular Japanese artists do these days. The vast majority of them that are seniors in the industry started out as doujin artists. This is also tied in with the respect there is for artists in the overall communities. For this second point, the average animu artist on twitter at least, can't just transfer into commercial work unless they're stupidly popular AND speak at least some decent Japanese. So opening a shop and selling fanmerch seems like the most logical next step.

No, your memory's not bad. There were definitely more spaces where people could simply enjoy doing their art as something fun rather than brand building/clout/gateway to pro work/etc. (forums and oekaki boards come to mind as primary examples along with webrings and personal pages)
I would argue that dA as a centralizing system could be one possible data point the eventual decline of individual art hobbyist spaces and a greater push toward marketing/branding because things like showing view counts, favorites, links to other artists/friendlists, and other networking tools inevitably pushes a community into a popularity contest. But yeah, probably less so at the very beginning as you say and without the bastardization of a non-artist community.
Other data points likely include Youtube (initial business model was user generated content before becoming advertising/selling data), socmed in general as mentioned by other anon, personal branding/productivity/side hustles into main hustles being a thing in startup culture in parallel to centralization (which bled into everyone else's lives with gig work), and among people I knew at the time, sakimichan's initial patreon numbers back in 2013 making them all collectively believe that they were leaving money on the table by not somehow monetizing their artwork.
And there's also the aspect of what you're talking about in regard to your graphic novel - if your work is at a tier that's good enough to get freelance or commissions at a range that other artists desire, then it becomes impossible for them to understand why you wouldn't monetize immediately.
I personally can't wait to delete all of my art accounts once my school loans are paid off and I don't have to pretend to enjoy shit like freelance or commissions.

Like other anons said, instathot faces are probably muscle memory for him atp and 2 hours isn't insane for a blocky or sketchy painting. Some experienced artists are just really fast.
I love the artist in vidrel who posts streams of her art in real time, unlike speedpaints you can see exactly how much rendering and coloring she does in under an hour and I want to be like her so bad. She constantly cranks out multiple really nice drawings in sub 2 hours. She often uses a really boring art program from 2007 and just has a screenless Wacom and doesn't use very many layers. No filters and color correction, just using whatever look good. Anyone who likes oekaki style would probably learn something from her videos and she also makes a ton of drawings where she references interesting looking objects and makes a humanized design out of it.

instagram doesn’t allow creative diversity or experimentation to thrive on their platform so artists curate their content around what pleases the algorithm and that unfortunately includes having to draw consistent pretty-faced anime girls. there’s something off-putting about his art that I couldn’t touch my words on, it reminds me of those tradwife photo-ops wignats use but instead it’s been replaced by 2D generic asian waifus based off of kpoop models and such. he makes his dating preferences and sexual fetishes way too apparent in his artwork

It makes me sad that modern anime is so fucking boring looking. I miss when it looked more like a cartoon with insane gigantic bug eyes, gravity defying physics and retarded outfits. It was so much more colorful and creative too. I also hate when old school artists, like for example pic rel, ditch their old school style for a modern, more generic one. I know art evolves yada yada, but it's sad to see because the modern anime aesthetic is just so plain and boring. I dont even like yurishit but i can get past it to admire the wonderful art in this artist's 90s works, meanwhile i cant do the same for her modern work because its just generic and run of the mill plain anime art.

yeah his art is just the same neotenous asian face. all of his art is literally just asianfying existing girls. i also really dont understand the sudden plague of artists just drawing over a reference, basically a 1:1 aside from their art style and maybe the character and not even mentioning the use of a reference. like i would feel weird if a picture of me got asianfied and i see it on instagram with 1 bazillion likes. if any big artist did this even once like 5 years ago it would be seen as dishonest but now its the norm and formula to instagram fame because its how you churn out art quickly. thats how sam makes his drawing under 2 hours. just drawing over a photo + the face he can draw in his sleep. is it just me that finds this new standard about references weird? like yeah weve been doing this for ages like still-life but thats not the same since still-life is already understood to be a replica. sam is very shallow and calculated

Basically, I've read Astrocat's response to this situation that, again, has been regurgitated so many times, it's not even funny at this point. Her having this one csam image was the only instance of her actually sharing something like that, and she sent it to her friends because she was shocked that some random dude sent it to her. Check picrel, it's an excerpt from the explanation post. Notice the lack of any context to this image. It was just cropped to make her look worse. She was a 15-year-old retard, this shit happens. She doesn't own and never had these tons of csam stuff like they claim. It was a photoshoped screenshot of her fellow edgy teen friend saying that. But since people hate her for her edgy humor and often weird takes, but she is not actually interested in children.

>>1950789
It's definitely possible. I've done it before. If you want to properly emulate traditional you'll have to emulate everything that goes into a traditional looking artwork digitally. This means looking for and using, brushes, pens, pencils, and erasers that emulate the textured traditional medium you're going for. You can also scan in a traditional paper medium (sketch, watercolor, canvas etc.) to use as both a textured background and a textured overlay. Learn to use filters to give off a more scanned. A good cheat is to print out the image, crumble it slightly, wet it lightly, roll it out, and re-scan it to make it more grainy looking finished. You can tint the paper in this process with a spray containing diluted coffee or tea to aid in this. Depending on the style of traditional work you'll have to play around with the aforementioned parameters. One thing you can also do is try to not use digital tools too heavily, don't ctrl+z instead use a textured brush to erase your lines and for coloring, do everything on one singular layer.

NTA but I will try to articulate what I don't like about this. There isn't really a clear light source in either which is a problem with a lot of concept art. Especially the bottom one looks coated in bloom. The top one is trying to set a dynamic pose but the way the ground and the bodies are drawn doesn't really convey weight meaningfully, and the perspective could have been used better. It looks flat. The colours are really muddy and blend together. In both images the figures look more like dolls or video game objects just placed in the scene rather than humans in the middle of an action.

Modern concept artists can only do three types of environments
>fantasy
>fantasy but chinese
>cyberpunk neon colors
they are incapable of coming up with something more interesting. To be fair, they also don't need to because to be a concept artist you need to follow trends and settle for the safest, most commonly appealing with normalfags style. They would rather die than go with something more experimental that might filter tasteless normalfags. Something like tekkonkinkreet would scare them because there isn't a single same-faced pretty woman or photobashed cyberpunk building in sight.

I hate looking up an artist and being assaulted with their gallery filled of oil paintings of naked women. Sometimes it looks like a porn frame too. It's not an anatomy study, it's not artistic nude (which is already a retarded term they use to get away with this shit), just some random women posing naked in stupid ways. It's even worse when they paint themselves naked too, nobody wants to see your dick, fucking ew. Artist moids are the fucking worst.

This one? Well let's get into it!

The light source is clearly the sabers with a deliberately foggy overcast lighting to let the sabers stand out as the focus of the image. Bottom clearly has light source from the right. Bloomy appearance is an imitation of lens effect for a more cinematic quality, I like it, it's atmospheric. Agree on the disconnect of the characters to the ground but in thumbnail view the image is conveyed successfully nonetheless. Ground plane appears to be a 3d asset, may not have been refined due to time/budgetary constraints, but is quite obvious. Colours don't look muddy to me, monochromatic perhaps, but still harmonious with pops of saturation where needed. And lastly I think the action is well conveyed. Clear posing and remember, this is just a concept image for the animation, not a final print image.

My personal criticism of the 2nd image is the lack of clarity in the silhouette fo the 2 characters, merges in an ambiguous way, but in motion with fluttering cloth it's probably fine.

I think both are successful as keyframe images, depicting specific moments of action in the story, the 2nd one less so due to silhouette clarity.

>>1951498
Brilliant brush economy and simplification. Restrained use of colours and saturation letting the values do the heavy lifting.

Admittedly not much story conveyed but I don't think that was the goal of either image. The value structures are so solid and nice value composition as well with the top one using lights as an accent and 2nd using shadows as an accent. I definitely prefer these iamges for there technical read than any storytelling involved.

As for ross, I simply wanted to state that he has skills beyond what most ppl think of him if his older work is any indication. Definitely not the same teir as instagram career artists. He would have made an impact in the world of entertainment art without social media.

Decided to have a go anyway, exposing up highlights on the background and top part of the subject help with clarity but feels more staged, like it's lit with artificial light.

Look up "eaton anatomy for artists" over at cgpeers, but from your description you're probably not making the legs long enough.

Also:
>20s inspired

No idea what she was trying to do with angel dust, honestly. He does look like an e-boy lmao. She tried to make Alastor more reminiscent of the 20s but then gave Angel Dust a 2020 femboy sweater

You can tell that she just churned this out for her video. I think people have pointed out for years that her lineart is kinda bad, and you can even tell that there are white spots that the bucket tool didn't reach here, so at this point I don't know why she doesn't just do coloured sketches, especially in a video like this that is about character design instead of illustrations. I feel like her lack of fundies would stick out less in a cleaned up roughly coloured sketch than in a clearly rushed full drawing with crappy lineart.

Also, it seems she deleted the video, lol. Someone in the recent comments of her music genres video claims she said she was gonna redo it. Did she get flamed for it? Or did she just have a sudden epiphany about the video's quality?
