Anon stop fucking making these fucking threads you fucking whiner Jesus fucking Christ

>>3148278
Btw pic related is mine. This is my first time on 4chan.

>>3148279
if you have spent 8k hours and your art only looks like that you didn't study enough anatomy to make it look better. this is bad even by anime standards. the lines and bg looks nice but the character design and appeal is very weak. im not saying give up but work on appeal.

>>3148283
It's not.
This was made by a 21 year old girl. OP is really just another faggot that's ngmi

>>3148274
btw this isnt your art. https://twitter.com/kupobox

>>3148283
Appeal is subject you retard. I don't find Yoh yoshinari's work appealing, does that mean it isn't? Also, what part of drawing anime is a waste of time went over your head you neanderthal. Why the fuck would I waste anymore time on this shit? Let's say I did get good, so what?

>>3148274
That thing where the girl's mouth is closed in on the edge is a cancerous method of cutting costs in animation, and has no business in the drawings of any artist with a modicum of self-respect.

>>3148288
Stfu you retard, nothing you says matters. You actually probably would be a person that could spend 8 years practicing and not be good.

>>3148274
Anon, i know youre smarter than this. Gaining any satisfaction from here isnt worth your time. Life is too short for (You)'s. Please make better use of your time. Love you :)

>>3148288
if you are op , you have already been identified as a shit poster , its not even your art, nothing you say matters now, your larp failed.

>>3148288
It's not like you value your time in any way. You are wasting your life making weekly pretend threads on a board that gets you like 30 individual posters looking at your epic "trolling" and you get maybe 2 people who are still falling for it, the rest is you samefagging.

He's right though, if you're not japanese or not doing it for porn you have no business doing this style, there's no job waiting for you with it

>>3148307
It's a fallacy non-artist retards post because they don't understand how improving at art actually works. No one learns one style and then is stuck with it for the rest of their life. If you actually understand the fundamentals and can fucking draw, it takes one afternoon to learn a different style. Also, probably the most popular style these days is the calarts Disney style and its slightly more realistic version, which is incredibly easy for anime artists to adapt due to the huge similarities.

>>3148307
Ever heard of Riot Games by any chance?

>>3148315
waiting for some fag to cry about anatomy

>>3148319
lol i know right

>>3148315
>that
>anime
>>3148321 is but thats not even the selling point of Riots art and skins, saying youll learn the anime style on the off chance you get to make a bit of themed art once in a while for a big company or work for a small indie studio (all of which are shitty vidya) is ridiculous

>>3148332
Is this anime enough for you?
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/NL2DD
Half of Riot's filled with weebs, and a lot of other big and medium sized studios are filled with people with an anime or anime hybrid style.
Hell, even Blizzard has a bunch of artists who have a very anime-ish style
Just draw with the style that comes to you naturally and it'll work out, even if said style is full blown anime you'll succeed as long as you work hard

>>3148335
gobless zeronis
but everything there leans toward realism, with anime influences on the pretty faces, like every well known patreon artist, so as anon above said you have to know how to draw really well in the first place
unlike the shit that people do attempt to learn which is literal manga and anime
where does shit like pic related get you besides the front page of a booru and a folder on my computer

>>3148274
Post your work.

>>3148341
Doing shit like that isn't gonna get you anywhere unless you start a patreon lol, but we were talking about the style, i.e the big shiny eyes with a pointy chin, not what you decide to do with it.
As long as you're good at drawing anime and have a good design sense you could literally be hired by any studio that's known for doing stylized games, since your style doesn't really matter since it won't be featured in the final game.
Loish (someone with a very cartoony style) even did concept work for Horizon zero dawn, a realistic looking game.
Your style literally does not matter. As long as it's appealing to some extent and you know how to design and draw you're gucci my man

>>3148312
guys /thread is over, OP got his question responded, why still act like it was not?

OP's mad because he's garbage. What a faggot.

>>3148335
Damn, that is awful, particularly the mangled arm.

>>3148364
I don't like the style but it's certainly better than what most of us can draw. Also what mangled arm?

>>3148372
>>3148364
>>3148361
>>3148349


It's funny how all you guys are talking shit but no of you guys have actually refuted any of my points. Is it because you know it's true?

>>3148373
they literally did refute all your points though.

>>3148274
>WAAHHH WAAAHHH WAAAHHH
Post your work faggot.

>>3148294

This is a good post.

>29 replies
you've really surpassed me senpai, I'm mirin your work

>>3148315
>tfw no Star Guardian Sriracha gf

threads like these are fucking stupid
nothing matters after we die so do whatever the hell you wanna do, be productive in whatever way you want.
if you wanna draw weebshit and it makes you happy then you do that.
you take that joy and you apply it creating art and you'll see gains.

>>3148608
if you are still living with parents or go to family meetings, it is kind of important what you do.

>>3148348
so the lesson here was, don't do pinups, but do scenes?

>>3148349
People can't accept the truth

>>3148631
Lesson is: draw whatever you want to draw

>>3148723
>taking advice from Nile who is still looking for a job

>a skill that will lead to social stigma. Grown ass man still drawing cartoons

But that's bullshit. Everyone loves cartoons. Even people who don't watch cartoons themselves realize that the ones for children are not being drawn BY children, because children can't draw or legally be employed at studios. You're just making up reasons to be mad.

>>3148731
sorry for not landing an art job 3 months out of high school lmao

>>3148746
This, grown ass men have always been the ones to draw cartoons, direct children's movies, and whatever else there is. It's weird to think otherwise, it's like people can't logically handle that.

>>3148747
Go to college you retard. Drawing anime and communicating with 4chan scum isn't gonna get you anywhere in life.

>>3148926
college is a waste of money, retard

>>3148933
Is that what you tell yourself at night while eating your ramen?

>>3148274
well congrats, thats what you get for ripping a style from it's narrative context, anime is meant for comics and animation, it’s simplified so it can be drawn easily over a gorillian frames/panels. It’s funny that DA struggles to produce a single illustration in that style let alone actual storytelling as intended.

>>3148955
What college do you go to, champ?

>>3148274
Following your passion is never a waste of time. If you're embarrassed because you think others will look down on you for doing what you love, you're either incredibly insecure, or you really don't love drawing all that much. In which case, quit drawing. Do something you actually enjoy instead of looking for community acceptance just to feel okay about yourself and what you do. That's kind of pathetic, to be completely honest. It's more embarrassing to be an insecure grown ass man than it is to be a content grown ass man doing what he loves and not giving a fuck what others think.

>>3149223
No one needs your armchair bullshit dude

>>3149223
Disregard
>>3149227
Meant for OP post

>>3148926
Don't go to college unless it's a well renowned art school that will guarantee you a job + contacts like RISD, Art Center, Sheridan or possibly the FZD meme school.
>tfw forced into the engineering meme by family and have no time to draw
Avoid it at all costs if you want to pursue art and go pro. Learn from my failure anons. Make it for me.

Dude if you want to learn anime better I posted some how to books in the book thread and plenty more will be coming but there is a ton of other stuff you should check out to get better

>>3149251
>>3148933
Going to a community/commuter school is a pretty good alternative. I lucked out because my art professors are amazing and it's pretty motivating to actually talk to people with similar goals as you (plus I got an art scholarship within a month of attending, so I'm going for free).

Also, I'm sorry, anon. If you're still in school, I hope you get more free time once you complete it. A bunch of pro artists (especially vis dev guys) have engineering backgrounds, so it's never too late for you to get into art.

>>3149257
What did you do to get an art scholarship? Did you impress the school with your portfolio or something?

>>3149267
I didn't know it existed, so I didn't have the opportunity to slyly ask someone to check my portfolio under the guise of asking for my critique. One of my professors just asked to speak to me after class and recommended me to the prof in charge of the scholarship.

If you're at a community college, you should probably snoop around and ask other people if they're on an art talent grant or something. Not to sound like an ass, but based on some of the other recipients I know (including me), the bar isn't too high skill-wise.

>>3148283
>even by anime standards
Stfu you're showing your bias here. Anime, and I mean real anime, has some of the highest skill requirements in the art world
