/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Just woke up, browsing a few mind before going to paint

i alt tab every now and then to shitpost
it keeps faggots like you from working; i.e. you dont make it, and there is less competition

>>2019522
I'm just going to bed, checking for anything interesting before I sleep

because I have no friends.

>>2019530
> i.e. you dont make it, and there is less competition
If you think this will keep you from getting a job, then don't get into a competitive business. You're not going to make it.

to get helpful critiqu-BWAHAHAHAHA

I'm sorry, I just couldn't say it with a straight face

>>2019530
seems like creating a good environment here would be more helpful. enlightened self-interest, it's called.

So that people can critique my work.
Help dudes that are worse than I am.

>>2019682
Commendable, I was honestly starting to think everyone was just here to whine about artists getting rich off patreon and bicker about inane drama instead of learning to draw

here bc procrastinating, don't want to study for a test (not art related or anything)

>>2019684
nahh, thats just the under 25 crowd, it dies down and flares up about twice a year.

Fine art arouses me, poor art amuses me.

I like shitposting inbetween drawing.

>>2019689
same; I've always been under the impression that no one is actually mad at my shitposts, but rather other d/ic/ks just play along with the banter whilst doing work, like some inside joke.

>>2019689
>>2019698
me2lol

I dunno considering nearly every time I post something to get help I either get ignored or trolled. I pretty much don't even post my work here anymore, but I think I'm addicted to watching human drama unfold in the various threads.

>>2019519
Just making my monthly rounds to see what /ic/ is up to. Maybe post up some threads if I have some useful stuff to share.

i go here to look for motivational stories from fellow anons but all i find is despair

help

>>2019832
Which is why I'm rarely even here. /ic/ got more depressing judging from the posts the last 3 years, for whatever reason. But I might be wrong though.

Get in, get everything you need quickly, and get out. No point in lingering.

I've been on 4chan since 2004, it's not like I can go anywhere else.

Aside from the usual self important newfags and bitter anons that take themselves much too seriously the underlying theme here is self improvement.

>>2019519

>>2019850
half that stuff's outdated now

>>2019851
Not really. Just the Loomis part, now we have Scott.

>>2019850
huh? That seems awfully out of date. Tattoo, tablet, free art threads rarely get any replies at all. They just get reported, OP gets banned, thread is deleted and that's that. No one cares about what you say about Loomis and I have never seen anyone get mad over someone being called anti-semitic anywhere on 4chan.

If you want to troll /ic/, you have to post Kronprinz and Sakimichan, start a Noah Bradley thread where you defend his work or say Mullins and Jaime are overrated.

>>2019519
i like to have a place where i can go where everyone is an idiot. accesses emotions i can't get to while i'm out and about. where else can i interact with retarded fascist woman-hating mongoloids who think the pinnacle of visual art is doing paintings that look exactly like photos. i mean it's completely surreal. it's like that robocop universe or something.

>>2019856
except mullins and jaime are really overrated.

>>2019682
what the fuck is wrong with you. there must be something wrong with your brain

Bad procrastination habit.

To get shit on by other shit artists.

Yeah, im a masochist.

>>2019686
Then I can't wait for the good season.

>>2019835
Do you think Patreon has contributed to a less constructive environment?

>>2019857
Concur

Beginner artist here, taking a break from right side drawing because it's such a pain to use from pdf.
Might have to redesign my work space or something.

I just want to draw good porn goddammit.

To get my fill of social interaction for the day

>>2019933
>I just want to draw good porn goddammit.
I know that feel. Which books are you reading to get there, anon? I've been desperately looking for some direction to go in.

>>2019519
To remind me how bad I am, to keep my ego in check and git gud

To get my dick sucked.

Because I wanted to improve and draw as a job, since everything else I try to do explodes in my face.
but at some point I realized that I'm too old, life experiencies corroded my willpower and imagination, so I guess I'll just keep being unemployed for the rest of my life until I decide to jump from a roof and end this parody of an existance

>>2019686
according to the poll thread, most people here are under 25, you know...

I browse /ic/ to get tips, help with motivation and ideas, and stuff. Lots of interesing reads, but almost no results...

cause I'm down and rolling into depression, and /ic kinda keeps me company. It is comforting to actually read stuff from 'real people' and see some honest thinking once in a while, other than this make-up covered society.

I like looking at other people's work.

Bad, Good - doesn't matter, just like looking at it.

>>2020007
>according to the poll thread, most people here are under 25, you know...

the older you get, the less likely you are to post in threads like those.

>>2020022
Yes because normally people that doesn't get any result at some point move on and stops coming here.
I'm 34.

just got back from uni and im gunna do an hour or so of quick pose studies, then an essay, then some anatomy later. I love /ic/, talking to other draw-ers of all abilities is comfy

Who's art is the pic? wanna see some more of that

>>2020072
Wes nurt

>>2020079
I dunno why, but your typo made me laugh pretty hard

To remind myself that I've got to draw more.

To see whats going on in the art world, other people's work, what interests people, references. I mainly lurked before but I'm starting to post my own drawings, which has been fun.

because this is the only place on the internet that agrees with me when I say my art is shit

>>2020087

Because 'merica

>>2019519
Someday i will be as good as senpai

>>2019519
>Why are you on /ic/?
Because I am at work taking a shit in the bathroom

lots of people talking about and discussing my main intrest

>>2019519
Does this guy draw like the King? One shot no gesture or pre sketch? I really like the style.

Collecting Refs. by the way whoever thought they got some good stuff in the knight thread just look up knights and armor on pinterest and i guarantee youll find higher quality and quantity of armor references by a thousandfold.

>>2019960
I have no idea what to read yet, I've mostly been doing observational drawing trying to get a good head on "scenes and positions".
Trying to find the hottest points of a blowjob, etc.

At this point I'll probably end up reading those how to draw manga books from the 80s for easy weeb comission cash or focusing on the old fantasy dungeon art wich is honestly more my taste.

>>2020184
clean that room you pig

>>2020197
Show your room
>inb4 merci_wip

>>2020197
FUCK NO BITCH

>>2020197
Dude he doesnt want to clean his room, leave him the fuck alone!

>>2020020
Have you tried sitting in a livestream chatroom?

>>2020181
Once you can identify the distance between landmarks on the face, there's no need to draw the lines anymore

>>2020283
In short: git gud

>>2019972
I laughed

>>2019857
Real talk.

I don't even know why I'm here, nobody gives a shit about actually being creative. One awful thing the niche boards do is they aim to turn every art into a sport in some way or another, and it loses all meaning.

Oh yeah, reference threads. That's why I'm here.

>>2020266
He also doesn't want to stop eating hostess cakes and posting grainy webcam photos of himself

>>2020749
>reference threads.
>>>/pintrest/

>>2020810
Not that anon but good point.

Anyone have any good pintrests to follow? I only really know of the character design one

if i tried drawing ops pic do you think i would increase my skill a thousandfold?

>>2020824
This guy

>>2020832
And
/Anubiss12/

>>2020810
Am that anon, and that is a good point. Thanks for the peeps.

As of right now, you guys are the only art friends I have. I come here when I feel a block or like I'm going in circles

>>2020842
fuck you stupid fuck.

>>2020847
I love you too!

>>2019519
Because I get distracted too easily and when I try to take short breaks from drawing I get trapped here and don't draw. I tell myself I use /ic/ for references but mostly I just open the ref thread and then browse for 2 hours.

if dubs I blacklist 4chan on my computer and leave forever

>>2020960
:(
Someone give me a reason to leave please.

>>2020184
I love you

>>2020281
where can I do that?

>>2021012
are you a girl

>>2019519
lamentation of the women blah blah blah

Checking if any D/ic/k has found or made a .Pdf of "How To Render" and or other useful resources that are not on Cgpeers.
I also like to shitpost sometimes and sometimes I leave a critique.

>>2019519
On occasion I find something helpful and useful here

>>2022602
more than u can say for other sites, so maybe we're on to something

A little desire to learn, a little self-loathing

>>2019519

I'm here because there's too many bitch-ass tricks on DA, and none of them offer real critique. Even "constructive criticism" just reaches into the butthole of placation to coddle the feelings of those in constant need of affirmation.

How inefficient.

>>2022685
Fucking bitches, man.

>>2021940
>>2021012

I was the first one to say 'I love you'... Pls senpai notice me

>>2021810
No he's mine!

>>2022688
i hope your not suggesting that that dude up the top is a chick, it's even a self portrait of the 'vaggio himself

To learn and git gud.

>>2022822
it's so weird how all old men end up looking the same

>>2022825
Genetics are a blessing to keep.

>>2022825
Yeah that looks like the old man from the thread where the jewish guy found out his grandpappy was a nazi

>>2019519
I hate it here please ban me

Because I'm new to art and wanna be part of a community. I dont know of better places.

i don't know, i don't even draw

i guess im just here to get jealous about a skill i'll never have
