/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

1 being a child's scribbles and 10 being Michaelangelo, I'd say I'm about a 2 or 3

A 4 with photo reference, -10 from imagination

>>3683405
same

>>3683400
1

>>3683400
interms of anime i think a good 6 or 7

11/10
Witness true art. You could learn from me. No need for thanks.

>>3683420
But truthfully though, I think it's 4/10 and that's after I received help from other anons.

>>3683400
3. Doesn't help that I'm a lazy cunt too.

>>3683400
kind hard to measure talent
but if you mean skill then probably between 2 and 3

>>3683400
2 because I can feel the form

>>3683420
Blonde twintails with an ahoge carrying a bomb?

>>3683400
1= mentally retarded
5=unremarkable
10=god like
so id say im slightly under average(4)
(pic not related)

>>3683400
probably around 3 steadily climbing up

>>3683400
10/10

>>3683400
A straight 8, but with the endurance of a 2

>>3683427
Blonde pregnant loli.

>>3683400
Maybe 5, after all it took me ten years to reach a decent level.

i normally draw at a 6 but i can go to a 10 no problem

Creativity? 10
Actual skill? like a 2

>>3683400
If KJG is a 10 I'm probably a 3 or a 4.

>>3683400
5

7 on a good day

>>3683400
Talent?
A flat zero.
I got to where I am through practicing and building a skill, not being innately talented. The only "talent" I really have is having an overactive imagination for visualizing things, and willingness to be creative.
Skill-wise, I'm like, a 3.

>>3683400
If I put effort in, I can NOT hate my own work, otherwise my stuff looks like a literal non-artist could have made it.

>>3683544
>having visualisation
That's not 0 then.

>>3683544
talent is a fucking meme you big dummy

>>3683400
Somewhere around a billion.

>>3683400
4

>>3683400
i dont deserve to be alive/10

>>3683400

Honestly, i can make pretty good looking stuff but i still rate myself as one because i can't do shit without good references.

>>3683400
Dumb egg poster

>>3683400
Considering I'm more of a writer that likes to draw on the side, I'd say 3-4, maybe 5 when I actually work harder.

If 1 is the lowest then probably a 1

>>3683409
youd think it would be backwords

10/10, otherwise, what's the point?

>>3683400
What anime is the girl in OP from?

>>3683685
Really? it is so hard to draw from imagination for me

>>3683400
3, maybe 4.
Not good by any means, but I'm better than a complete nobody and maybe some beginners.

2-3... Given the amount of work i have put into it the results are rather unimpressive...

about 5, id say. theres something there, but im not very attuned.

>>3683400
-5
-1 on a good day

>>3683400
2 or 3

0 being an adult normie?
Maybe 2.

>>3683532
U always have interesting characters. Original 10/10

>>3683400
*ptsd flashbacks of tierlists ensue*

>>3683400
I use a base-11 number system. And I'd give myself either a 7/11 for when I make art that is at the tier of a 7/11 hotdog with nacho cheese on it, or a 9/11 when I make art that is at the tier of life-altering acts of terrorism.

3 or 4 maybe, wouldn't call my shit good but it's not super hard to look at

>>3683883
That's really funny, jimmy. Jokes aside, I'd give you a solid 2/10. You certainly have established your skill-level without a doubt through hundreds of paintings with little sign of artistic talent or progress. So my rating is more or less based on your ability to copy a photo using acrylics. Not everyone can do that.

post it on reddit

>>3683863
Thank you so much!

If 5 is a unremarkable artist, (meaning totaly average), then probably 4. I'm that close to being, well, just unremarkable enough.
With references or a model, I can get to 6 on a good day.
Of course reaching 7 or 8 will take exponential time now

>>3683912
this

>>3683883
That's no how base-11 works

>>3683722
Zombieland Saga

>>3683400
Eh, probably a 4 or a 5, maybe a 6 if I'm putting in a lot of effort?

>>3683400
2

>>3684167
This.
Being talented is for the weak anyways haha, ha, ha..

3 at best

>>3683400
5~6? Good enough to cinch a holiday job as an illustrator like 2 years ago

You all should shut up and follow >>3683705
It's not good to look down on yourself. Artist should have more ego.

>>3683552
obviously ur gonna measure it when ur puttin in the effort no? otherwise thats literally like measuring a flaccid penis.
either way id really love to see an exampe of your high effort work, just for curiositys sake.

>>3683418
No, you arent.

1 being the learn to draw manga american books and 10 being the guy from berserk or kim jung gi, I doubt you are a 6 let alone a 7

>>3683400
I'd take about a 4.5 when I'm feeling cocky, 3 on most days

>>3683400
id probably say about a 4 maybe 5

5.5 to 7 on a good day.

>>3683400
5-6 with reference, 3-4 without

1 or 2

I put my sketch book in the microwave for about half a minute.

6 or 7

>>3685084
this post sums up this entire thread

6

>>3685088
>>3685089
dont dodge my post lil nigga

after drawing on and off for about 2 years id give myself a 3-3.5

I started this year and I fucking suck

but I'm not quitting and I'm gonna get decent one day

about a 7

>>3683400
well, i'm better today than I was yesterday

>>3683400
A light decent to strong 6

Either a 5 or a 6 as I am now.
I'm better than the average person, but I haven't seriously trained my artistic skills since I was a kid.

Working on that now though, hopefully I can be in tip top shape by 2019

a 6 maybe

>>3683400
like a 6

>>3683542
<3
>>3685089
out of 20 maybe

>>3683400
what do each rating mean?

>>3683400
6-7 halfway through the piece
2-3 after I've finished it

>>3683400

I'm probably around 3.5-4 now, at least on my scale system and the artists I want to be like. I think I have a sense of design and imagination, but still lack a lot of basic knowledge and draftsmanship skill.

At least I'm much more driven now, so I'm improving fast.

>>3683400
0

>>3683912

>>3683937
Replying yourself is cringe worthy, your shit sucks btw

5
1-scribbling
2. doodles
3 symbol drawing
4. copying cartoons
5 copying real life
6 copying multiple references
7. original work
8 color theory, composition, stylization
9 polish
10 confidence

'Bout a 7. But those last 3 are a bitch to achieve.

>>3683400
4 because i literally cant finish anything

>>3686062
What a low scale, any mediocre artist would be a 10.

I'd give myself a 9/11 at anime drawing skills.

>>3686435
>anime
are you sure?

>>3686436
heck yeah I'm basically japanese now after drawing >>3686435

I’m still drawing with paper/pencil so 0.

>>3683400
My font looks really ugly but I would still say I'm about 3.

>>3683532
You and me brother

>>3683400
3-4
I don't want to be one of those overly negative artists that always put themselves down, but I'm also realistic with myself.

>>3683400
6, sometimes 7, very rarely 8

>>3683532
You and I should join forces, I have decent skills but my subjects are too generic

>>3683912
>Not everyone can do that.
(you)

>>3686779
these are disgusting dude pls stop

>>3686834
u kno he wont.

dont feed the troll.

>>3686834
aww poor girl you prefer your art image boards to just be a wall of text of anonymous children saying how good they think they are with no pic related. ah bloo bloo for you nerd. ngmi.

>>3686837
>troll
I'm a goblin you stupid frick read a book maybe

>>3686779
better than illastrat

>>3686926
you're so fucking silly bro.

3, but I really want to get better

>>3683400
If one is deviantart preteen and 10 is that godlike chinese guy maybe 4?

>>3683685
negative ten

>>3686779
>>3686925
>>3686926
I don't like these

Comparing to myself in old works i'd say i'm in a pendulum of 6-9, thinking in my goals i'm around a 2, so much to learn but the burnout is real

>>3683400
5-6

i mean iv'e only been drawing for 2 years

>>3683400
I rate my talent at 3-4
I rate my dedication and hard work at 8. Which is the only proper factor that can help you make it. Talent alone won't do you any good.

>>3683400
Probably like 0.3, my friends say my art is really good which probably means it's a 0.3

ITT:

>I'd fuck me

>>3683405
a few months ago a 1
i guess now a 1.5

>>3683400
9, if we're talking about talent. I saw people telling me it'd take 10 years to be like Murata or whatever but looking at my own progress, my art gains are amazing. In just 5 months I'm already confident I surpassed everyone who " was good at drawing " but never bothered studying the craft in depth and I can do any character decent enough.

For example I've never drawn Ironman or The Hulk or a wolf, but if someone out there in college told me to sketch one, I'd do a good enough job they would think I'm a pro. I'm fucking amazing I can do anything goddammit I'm so good. This all without references, that's the key. Being able to draw without reference because you just know how bodies are supposed to look is the greatest feeling.

And I'm sure this isn't just me being high. Progress is undeniable and I fail to see myself progessing slower, as long as I have objectives to work towards I'll be a master in a year or two. I'm fucking better than all of you, and if I'm not, I'll eventually be. I am evolving. I AM GROWING STRONGE

>>3689478
post your work

>>3689478
is this brian

Skill: 1.8
Imagination: 8.1

Overall talent rating: 4.6

>>3683512
>What you're seeing now is my normal state. This is a 6.
>And this, this is what is known as a 9 that has ascended past a 6.
>Or you can just call this a 9.
>And this..... IS TO GO EVEN FURTHER BEYOND!!!!

I feel like I'm always a 4 no matter how much I improve

Compared to the average layman? Maybe a 6, only because an art teacher told me I was above average. Creative wise 2-3.

3

like a 4.3

>>3683670
this this THIS THIS THIS THISSSSSSSSS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
FUCKING KILL ME
CUT MY FACE
I DONT DESERVE TO DRAW

>>3690958
are you also lonely by any chance?

I feel like I can attain a 4 within a year or 2. As long as I continue studying the fundies aka anime

>>3683670
Who gives a fuck? The sooner you stop mythologizing and romanticizing imaginative drawing, the better. For one, imaginative drawing is endgame. If you keep using reference, you’ll eventually get there. Two, most professionals generally only forgo reference for basic compositional sketching and thumbnailing. It’s common practice for comic book artists to take photos of themselves and literally trace their own poses. The goal is to create a good finished image; not to wank yourself over how you got there.

>>3683400
I'd say I'm trash/10.

Eternally a beginner.

>>3683420
what's the thing on the left of the head?

>>3683416 wrong
>>3683418 wrong
>>3683608 wrong
>>3684167 wrong
>>3685180 right
>>3686030 wrong
>>3686376 wrong

I'd say 5. 6 if I'm really into it.

5

I'm a 1

>>3683400
Solid 7

>>3693942
Sorry meant to type .7

>>3693942
Actually, judging the rest of this thread I rated myself a number too high

>>3693943
Savage but I probably deserve a little bit of getting yeeted on for posting mediocre stuff

about a 4.5

id rate myself about a 1, 2 on a good day

>>3683400
6/10, as in a failing score.

Like a 0.2 at most

Currently, at 5/10. Looking to improve.

>>3683400
6, better than 2 years ago but still not great.

1

>>3696017
>epic fail, im sooo bad haha. this is just a doodle i didnt spend anytime on it even haha

yeah guess youre right you really suck dick, give up.

>>3696036
i spent an hour or so on it, looked up multiple refs, and even then i still didn't get the drawing i wanted. i took two irl drawing workshops for concept art related stuff recently, and seeing the work of other art students and how hard they grind was humbling. other students follow the concept art trends very well, everyone's using blender and eevee now but i don't even feel interested in those things.

i wanted to be a character concept artist, but seeing the competition makes me realize just how far behind i am. so when i think about a scale of 1 to 10 in terms of how far i am from that goal, i think i'm at a 1. also it takes me a long time to learn things, and for the amount of time i've put in i've gotten back very little.

2 but i work harder than all of /ic combined
watch me as i leave you in fucking dust u fucks

probably like a 2 to people better than me
a 7 to people just starting
and a 4 in my own eyes.

>>3683400
A 9 maybe

4 maybe? Most of my drawings are OK but they are really ruff and generally un polished

A few months ago I would've said like a 7.
Right now, I'm feeling a light to decent 1.

>>3696174
Hey, you aint't Tokiya!

>>3683682

Stop the humble brag AAAAAAAAAAA

>>3697321
Here you get a 9 too for having good taste

>>3683400

Talent solid 1
Art skill 3-4 maybe, still trying to understand the direction I want to take

>>3683400
2, but its awfulness adds to the overall mood and aesthetics
>>3683420
I love sailor moon!

>>3686439
god i wish this was me

>>3696174
I love this so much, want to make something with a similar color palette and vibe

talent wise probably like a 2 but skill wise i think ive gotten up to a 6, maybe 6.5. so better than average but not by much, at least for me.

>>3699971
You should check out Tokiya Sakuba then because this is pretty much a trace of an old piece of theirs.

>>3699971
Oh and the pallete is blending layers, it's extremely easy to fuck with color pallete in photoshop

>>3693962
This is pretty nice but you need to do something with the lineart. What style are you going for? Is this the finished piece? Also under the arm on the left side of his body I have no idea what is going on, kind of makes him look like his body is barrel shaped. Fundies and lineart practice and you'll make it in no time

depending on what anons rating I compare myself against, it goes from 1-4 I guess. I mostly just wish I had the resolve to draw more than one thing every quarter year.

>>3683400
A 3/10

With this >>3683405 as the scale, a 4

With this >>3683418 as the scale, a 4

Sketches: 7/10
Finished Digital work: 4/10 (5/10 on a good day)
Finished Traditional work: 6.5/10

I'd rate 5/10, if I'm drawing using a reference, 7-8/10, depends how long I'm given to draw though

Like a 6/10

>>3696053
how long have you been drawing for?

My overall talent is probably like a 4.

My talent for working smart can fluctuate between 6-8.

>pic related is just a study.

>>3683400
3-5 it drifts I would give it a 1 at best but at the very fucking least grasp the basic fundamentals.

>>3703374
almost a year and a half now. it's frustrating.

>>3703562
stop shitposting any time now

>>3703576
i want to get paid to draw like krenz but i'm nowhere near his level of ability. i don't compare myself to other students.

>>3683400
Im probably inbetween 3 or 4

10

whats the point of this thread?

>>3696017
>>3703562
you dont have to intesively look at krenz work to know he doesnt draw with fully opaque brushes

>>3683400
Probably a 4-5 overall. Not complete shit, but then again, I barely draw much to begin with.

Hmmmm 6.5 and I gain extra 0.5 pointed each every month. Cause am gud

>>3685885
nah mate it looks like a 3/4

>>3689128
2 to me

it feels a tab bit narcissistic or self pitying to rate myself but if i were someone look in: i'd rate it a 5/10. 4 if i'm finally really depressed or 6 if i feel like a egotistical douchebag.

it's average. sometimes above average but sometimes below average. points deducted for boring poses, lack of backgrounds, and one trick pony syndrome (i just do character designs).

>>3704465
That’s like an 8 dude

>>3704531
lol

>>3704465
>>3704531
that's a 2, 3 if we are lenient

I don't really know maybey 5 or high 5 idk what do you guys think?

>>3704560
this man gets me ^

>>3704795
4 or 3. maybe 5?

>>3683400
3-4

>>3683400
I hate practice and rush everything most of the time. 3 mostly or 4 on a really, really good day.
Also this piece of shit drawing is mine.
