You cant draw something like that? /ic/ is fucking garbage

>>2744089
Post art

Can people please fucking stop posting questions like:how do i draw like x. You are never going to draw like them.

Believe it or not, it's all about knowing your fundamentals.
After you learn that, then you experiment on it until you come up with a style.

Yes all you have to do is learn to fucking draw and if you want it to look like his drawings then fucking just study his drawings.

>>2744100
No you are wrong I looked at his old book at page 23 and learned exactly why his drawings look like they do.

>>2744103
Because of Vulcan Raven?

>>2744096
what this anon said.

>>2744088
if you ask this kind of questions you are never going to make it, tardo.

being an asian

2. draw some loose as fuck shit
3. Finish

Shinkawa is a meme artist. Just like Alex Ross, Masamune Shirow and the guy from Gantz.

Frankly we should make an infographic with meme artists to avoid.

>>2744196
What do you mean by meme artist?

>>2744200
If ater all those examples you didnt get whats a meme artist, then there is no chance of ever explaining.

>>2744088
Draw with kuretake and correction fluid

>>2744196
So meme artists are successful artists whose art is great?

>>2744196
>Masamune Shirow
>tfw you see his current art

>>2744215
>>2744216
Oh shit I didn't see his art

But no, Shinkawa isn't a meme artist

>>2744196
>tfw people prefer this over Nomura

>>2744218
Eyes are too far apart, sameface, badly shaded. Good colors though.

Red line this

>>2744088

These drawings are nice and they get the job done, but there's nothing particularly notable or extraordinary about them. They're just decent, loose, stylish concept art.

Don't draw like Shinkawa, OP. Draw like YOURSELF.

>>2744218
Nomuras a fag. Amano is an actual artist, not a dude with a zipper fettish

>>2744090

This thread made me realize something

/ic/ is kind of like a bunch of tech guys trying to come up with a marketing plan. all mechanical accuracy, no real human touch.

like guys, we know how important the specs are, but people have to actually like the product

>>2744300
this

brush pen + get gud = shinkawa or kjg

>>2744300
Oh shit

If I study technique, fundamentals, and keep studying and studying everyday, I'll become a master artist, but a tech guy who can't delive stuff that is appealing to the common public

But if I don't, I'll be able to plan stuff that will be appealing to the common public, but won't be able to properly execute it

What the fuck am I supposed to do then?

>>2744088

Not that it will help you overnight, but you should study his influences. Among all the ones that I remember are:

- Willy Pogamy
- Yoshitaka Amano
- Aubrey Beardsley
- Moebius
- Haruhiko Mikimoto
- Hikozo Ito
- Takato Yamamoto
- Frank Miller
- Yoshikazu Yasuhiko

You might think they are all over the place, but look how you can spot some Miller-esque vibe on his box art/package works, or the Mikimoto vibe when drawing women/girls. The thing is, his artwork fits what is needed. He doesn't provide his usual sketch designs for production assets, but rather uses them either as warm-ups/ideas or promotional art. The Eli pic you posted shows you that he can do both.

Also you might be interested on looking at artwork by Yuya Ishihata, Chihoko Uchiyama, Tsubasa Masao and Huke, which worked providing additional mech and character designs for the Metal Gear series through the years under Shinkawa's direction.

That's about what I can tell you other than using the brush pen and all that.

IC consists of a bunch of 19 year olds who decided that they want to draw their own hentai after browsing pixiv and falling in love their KAWAII DESU GIRLS but decide the rigors of being a career artist is too much for them

>>2744300
How the fuck are you going to design a product if you don't know how to design a product?
Stop acting like you're so above of all of /ic/ and learn to think before posting.

>>2744203
Or maybe you actually don't know how to explain because you're just parroting a meme itself.

Hey OP
When I did Steven Borenstein's lectures I'm often reminded of Shinkawa's art style. Especially his gesture drawings which uses the same scribbling-esque format as Shinkawa's sketches. I highly recommend studying a few lectures from him

>>2744411
Steven Borenstein? I didn't find anything about him on google

>>2744344
Thanks, I'll check on these artists

>>2744400

Design it -and- sell it, homefries

Gotta find that sweet spot

>>2744400

Beyond the bare bones minimum, the likelihood that people are gonna spend money on your art really isn't a linear line with your level of skill

At the end of the day, it's all about knowing your market and catering to them

>>2744425
Whoops I meant to say Sheldon Borenstein
Kinda mixed up his name with Steve Huston

>>2744411
Agreed his fat Jewish neckbeard charm is much more inviting than any likely xenophobic asian artist

>>2744290
You couldnt take the time to rename that? /ic/ is fucking garbage

looks a lot like fashion illustration, get creative with your brush strokes and bust out the water colours and inks

>>2744480
>knowing your market and catering to them
Isn't that like design 101?
