How many more threads will anon take over with one drawing?

I've never seen someone confuse Loomis the teacher of the human figure for Loomis the "Schiele fingers" learning crutch. It's a whole new level of misunderstanding that is either extremely ignorant, or just silly trolling.

Old masters used plenty of construction, knew their anatomy and proportion and whored viewfinders like no tomorrow. The only thing Loomis did was write a straightforward book in English about it rather than you having to read Da Vinci's treatise on painting with weird translation quirks or old French drawing manuals from the 17th century that haven't even been translated to English.

Stop this nonsense anon. No rules, just tools.

Hello friend the reason why your art isn’t making money is because it’s a flat head on portrait without skin color. It’s got s dark theme and I’m going to tale a leap of faith and make the assumption that you do not have a thriving: Deviantart, Instagram, Artstation, Tumblr or facebook page. Nor that you have put in effort to promote yourself om said pages. You have also probably not gone to conventions / art related events such as GEC, CTN.

What you want to do is make a solid foundation of content which appeals to people. The hysteircal person would cry Fan Art but simply making appealing content is enough. Like: Noah bradleys bright environments, Tyler Edlin, Loish, Ilya, Sakimichan (Reeeeeeee I know), Zeronis. You don’t have to do what they do but all of these guys make bank. Why not apply some of their tricks to your tastes?
