by not worrying about it

Drawing what you like, studying what you need to learn, having art friends and active audience, smoking weed and listening good music while drawing, dropping /ic/

>>6221318
AI sucks at cartoons, which is ironic since is the easiest shit to draw, simple and basic shapes, low detail, no perspective, BUT the level of "abstraction-ism" eludes the robots.

>>6221294
it's like squid is holding a musket or something

>>6221307
Squidward is mad.

it's hilarious how the jannies let this schizo fuck spam these threads

It would require you to have one in the first place.

Find that first.

Attempting to learn something else is just procrastination.

>This is for pros only, hobbyists need not apply
Then leave your own thread. You have a severely retarded way of thinking and you won't be making it past the deep fryer.

>>6221170
Drawing is much much harder to learn than an instrument or an language. If you focus everything on it, like super autistic about it, in 2 years you MAY get to pro level with a language or an instrument, but not while doing something demanding like drawing. Becoming a pro artist in 1-2 years? Lol, lmao even

>>6221373
Honestly this. Drawing is one of the hardest hobbies, maybe only surpassed in difficulty by sculpture.

He also designed that iconic bee character on Cheerios cereal.

>>6221069
Yes, just look at the large swaths of nsfw artists being cancelled out there...

He can do what he wants now. He... is free.

>>6221069
>A nondescript white girl with blond twintails constitutes as an OC these days

>>6221069
>art like this gets cancelled so easy now.
No it doesn't. Coom never gets canceled

i know it's not Rousseau but it definitely reminds me of him, definitely a striking piece

>>6220770
Thank you!

It’s a cover art illustration painted by Michael Gross for the 1974 trade paperback edition of the novel Chamiel, by Edward Pearson.

I saw that Tumblr post too and thought about making a thread.

I have no idea, but I would love to know.

>>6220712
The company that produces such art is called Carson Dellosa, so it's the Carson Dellosa style.

>>6220736
That's exactly it. Thank you anon!

>>6220736
yeah but who is the actual artist who came up with that face in the first place??

they could do it, but it won't look good.

My manga is about aborted monstrosities wandering a cursed land(the twist is they are inside "latent space" created by a god looking to create his waifu).

I'll give AI 20 years to reach that point.

>and I will give up learning how to draw
And you played yourself.
Good job, retard.

I didn't go to art school, but my architect coworker who did teach in art school, recommended that I read and apply this book here on my drawings and reference images to keep my proportions in check.

>>6220915
>>6220920
Thank you both. I got other books, like constructive anatomy by George Bridgman and Human Figure by John Vanderpoel but I'll look into your source.
I dont go to any art school but I take art classes at a local gallery, I do well in class but at home it feels like it all falls apart. IDK if Teach's guidance is carrying me that hard or home I am lacking confidence.

>>6220851
Looks like it's from the Art Models series but I can't find that one specifically.

>>6220954
ah thanks

>>6221369
Nah, the corpos will use AI so they wont have to pay artists

>>6220545
Your immediate impression of this image is that it looks cool, but then you realize that it's empty of actual content. All you have is a humanoid figure and some bottles, every other part of the image is pure nonsense. No face, no hands, the clothing design is random, it can't decide if it wants to be snow or smoke, the posture is schizophrenic. The hype over the AI art is a symptom of consumption culture where all that matters is first impressions even if that's not actually what makes something stick.

>>6221378
there's no way the word will collectively downgrade to "creepy doll like figures with bubble gum ice cream filters" as a standard for art dude. imagine seeing this insipid shit in video games everywhere. same with music. but even if you're right, then that means the world is doomed, I'll sever my ties with it as much as possible, and spend the rest of my life as a hermit in a village, close to nature. i don't like the idea of using cyberpunk dystopias as an example of what the world should turn into

>>6221378
AI art cannot be copyrighted

If you use AI generation all your shit can be copied

>>6221382
I mean true, i think it has been discovered that the average normalfaggot spends mere seconds looking at a picture, closing it and never looking at it again. the AI is not a big deal on its own, but since it molds so well with the simple normalfag brain, it suddenly becomes a big deal. idk what to say, these retards used to browse insipid soulless traced shit anyway, so they'll just switch to the new garbage instead. on one hand I don't give a shit what these consoooomers concern themselves with now, because I didn't before. on the other hand, it's impossible to not notice how cringe and low IQ normalfaggots are when they're so loud about it

>>6220491
use design doll and give yourself every reference pose you could ever dream of
or use any booru and search for tags that will give you the post you want.

>>6220497
No, I have another kind of problem
I made a mantis in a sexy pose, but now I realized its not funny if there's no human body reference people can recognize, and for the pose ref I used my gf.
In my head it sounded less weird

>>6220504
>and for the pose ref I used my gf
so just use your gf again
I'm also extremely curious what this picture looks like now.

>>6220528
I'll post it tomorrow if you're curious, but it's nothing special, just a mantis pushing its butt to the viewer

>>6220484
Just fucking draw, all my shit looks like shit but it didn't stop me.
Drawing every day

>>6220581
>Just fucking draw

Unironically helped me with motivation lol thank you anon. I should try drawing every day even if it's something small. I'm worried it'll get tiring though. Do you ever get burnout with that process or nah?

>>6220549
Exactly while you are at it, Try to start experimenting in certain things like techniques or shading and try to know how you do your own thing, Again each and everyone has their own unique technique in drawing. And if you want some real encouragement go look up artists like rebel taxi, Feel sad that you won't be able to draw like him and then go full force and start drawing alot

>>6220484
and here I thought the phase "don't be afraid of making mistakes" never actually applied to someone.

>>6220484
ruh-roh did someone take a long break from drawing and upon checking back in on things realized all the people they used to look down upon have now surpassed you?

>>6220475

>>6220475
your perception of color changes depending on the surrounding colors. Because the sea is blue, because their is a transitional grey color between the sky and the sea, and because the sky is being compared directly against the incredibly warm colors of the boat and person, the sky looks blue by comparison

>/ic/ is full of colorblind "artists"

>>6220475
The background sky looks pretty warm to me

>>6220475
you can see the effect here, what is perceived as being a blue tone in the context of the sky in the painting looks more like it's true color (grey orange) when surrounded by an actual blue

stop being a weak bitch and do it.

I'm glad that I can give you a lil bit of chuckle, anon. You should post Pharos the terrorists more. I like the storyline :)

I don't really have any OC, but I made this silly comic a while ago. You could probably draw her in your style.

>>6221334
Do you have a blog? This is trippy

>Just because coal was always used to give humans energy, now we shouldn't stop despite it's literally killing the planet?
Good lord what a great way to out yourself as a bumbling fuckwit retard and discredit everything you've said up to this point

>>6221218
Yes reinstating corporal punishments will do wonders. Most of people don't understand words, you have to speak to them in beatings.

>>6221279
More technically, the goal of a public beating/execution is to burn it into the brains of the crowd (esp. their amygdalas) the connection between the crime in question, and violent physical retribution. This is the primary purpose of making it a public event. But even in the parts of America that still do the death penalty, they manage to fuck it up by doing it in a closed, quiet room with an injection administered in a faux-medical setting, out of sight and out of mind leaving nothing more than an abstract concept for the public to ponder. No, it's SUPPOSED to be violent and traumatic, to scare the shit out of anyone watching who might be prone to contemplating committing similar crimes. It gels well with how our brains subconsciously process fear and aversion, which is why it has always been done in every culture (minus our very recently malfunctioned western societies).
