I used to be HUGE on drawing from imagination only and everyone else was doign this BIG sin. Then Some years back I was reading a coffee table book that so happened to be my favorite artist of all time, Alphonse Mucha. After looking through like 40 pages of his work and killing myself how ill NEVER be this good. I eventually got to the very last page that was a photograph of one of his "models" next to a photo of the finished work. I Then realized I was a retarded and I wasted my life being a crab.

If tracing a mannequin is considered art, that devalues art as a whole, cause now any idiot off the street can have perfect anatomy and perspective in their drawing.

I think the purpose of art, in general, is to provoke thoughts or emotion in its viewers. Since the story behind how an art piece was created can change how someone perceives it, the story/process has remained relevant to the overall quality of most art throughout history.

But now we have digital art, and there are literally thousands of ways to create something on the computer. Anyone could be using any method to create their art and there'd be no way to tell if they're bullshitting you when they say they didn't trace a mannequin.

At this point, I'd say all the "soul" of digital art comes from it's literal end product, and today the process shouldn't really matter for shit. Just do whatever works for you and ends up making your art look good.

They'll never post because they know they're garbage. Anyone who relies on 3D mannequins WITHOUT any actual semblance of artistic training and skills will always fail. Compare VolenCK with Wootha.

3D mannequins can only solve two technical aspects for you. Perspective and lighting, that's it. You can argue it solves anatomy for you, but anatomy rarely even works well in most 3D posing software without manual adjustments, which ironically requires more anatomy knowledge.

Design, composition, color theory, storytelling, creativity, taste, and dozens more - the actual hard stuff - are all left to the hands of the artists. These are the real underpinnings to a truly successful artwork.

And when you completely ignore them, to no one's surprise, you get garbage.

A person who cannot just draw a person in a non-crazy pose from a reasonable angle can neither draw objects environments and make a finished picture, because he just cant fucking draw lol.
If you need a poser it means you can't draw for shit anyways, as if a pose could help you if you can't place in in an environment and surround with objects. Drawing people isn't even the hardest part.
And if you could draw you would sketch gestures quicker than it takes to fiddle with a 3d model gizmos and shit.

Besides every single poser available is useless or even harmful. The models they offer are either so stiff and limited you can't make a complex pose anyways, or they are unlimited in motion and give you unrealistic broken bones poses, not to mention all of them completely neglect muscle and skin plasticity

I kinds like the face so here's the tip.

Her left hand is fucked but that's a small problem. The big one is her pelvis lacks any definition whatsoever.
I see this shit way too often i'm sick of this mistake every easy way by youtube guide faggot makes and it just drives me into despair, it's everywhere.

The legs don't just grow out of the abdomen, PLEASE do the fucking research on pelvis in hip bones for fucks sake.
And the pelvis is supposed to be connected to the chest with abdominal muscles, which are hands down the hardest part of human body, i would argue harder than hands, feet and the face, but they separate the plebs from the patricians.

>3DCG is not functionally different from photography.

I agree with this. I do think that 3DCG is probably situational (currently easier to use photos for things like non-urban environments or realistic figures with drapery, for example?)

He says in his post above that I praise 3D but that's not necessarily true, I'm just open to it. An artist of our kind should probably aim for good imagination figures anyway. I could definitely consider using 3D dummies in the future if I did serious work with foreshortening and strong lens settings, especially if it were an actual product.

3D can be very useful. It just replaces the practice of drawing perspective, and it has so many advantages over the traditional perspective practice, it's not even funny. That's all there is to it. If you can't produce a good image from a 3D scene, you just can't draw.

^this.

A lot of you guys in this thread forget that 3D is an art medium. It requires you to be More aware of everything in 3D space. You could compare it to drawing in 3D almost. So yes, it’s a good tool but it can’t just be used without effort or knowledge of 3D software, anatomy, composition, morphs, rigging, Etc.

Not just straight line but also snapping rulers and such.

Drawing a row of tables with straight lines and rulers is easy as fuck, probably faster than bothering with the models

CSP models are better than Design Doll, you can buff the anatomy as you please, change the perspective in a easy way. But still being a shit, because the focus of the camera can ruin your proportions and the location of the facial features, so you need to have an advanced knowledge to correct that... And what tipe of knowledge you need? Anatomy (kek), so, at this point is really useless use 3d organic models for tracing, unless you use them to place them within a certain environment to fit to the perspective, in this case you can use non refined dolls like Hiroya Oku did for Gantz

Something you use to compensate for your own deficiency.

Lets say you never got your fundies but you are trying to compensate with tracing, 3d and photobash.

1 your work is still going to suck because the elements you added yourself (clothing, objects, guns, face) don't fit into perspective of the scene (because you just suck)
2 you are never going to improve your fundamental skills because you are trying to supplement them rather thsn work on them
3 you likely arent going to go from shitty works you spent time on back to zero and start learning from straight lines and boxes and become the ultimate NGMI.

I have been around for years and while i am mediocre myself I observed a bunch or people who desperately clinged to their hope of finding an easy way for years.
