how the fuck is digital art shortcuts and presets. im not talking about photobashing or whatever here, im talking about just drawings/paintings. it requires the same goddamn skill as traditional art. its not even like you dont have to know how to mix paints, you do because its basic color theory anyway. look at picrel and tell me what shortcuts and presets were used here because i'd very much like to know.

digital is just a tool. like a pencil or a pen. why is this stupid debate happening over and over again, its like arguing sculpture is better than painting, it doesnt make any sense

I'm not putting words in your mouth, I'm mocking you because you're acting like a cunt that just assumes they're being helpful by objecting to workflows and methods they simply don't understand the potential merit of.

If my lighting was the issue, tell me my lighting was the issue.

Pic attached is a Ruan Jia painting at high res. He's doing all the things you told me not to do if I want to paint like RJ.
