I can tell you with ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCE that any and all true artists will agree that 2480x3508 is the correct canvas size

Depending on the picture, somewhere between 4000x4000 and 9000x9000 (my laptop tends to spazz out if I go beyond 10000x9000 for some reason).

My default is a bit over 2000x3000
Unless you plan to print something a large size, it feels like more is just overkill and more likely to get your computer to lag.
Also 300 PPI/DPI.

>> No.4192916

If you work with canvas size under 5000x5000 you have brain damage, pro artist post their "resized" pics, the pic You find at 2000x3000 is just the down sized version of the original, this helps to make the pic look crispier and sharper, if You work at small canvas size and you keep ir deliver you art at that size it will look like shit.

>> No.4192955

this thread is honestly eye opening to me.....I use like 1200x800 and then i upscale with waifu2x and clean that image up.....
I had no idea you fuckers were doing crazy resolutions. Maybe that's why i've always struggled with clean lineart.

>all these absurd res anons
I've always drawn digitally around 800x800 or sometimes 720p. Have I been doing it wrong all this time?

Pretty much, lol, resolution is one of the first things you need to know, is not just numbers even if you draw just for fun.

>> No.4193025

>>4192955
Because you need to do it the other way around, bigger, then do lineart, then scale it down, then pasa a sharpen filtre, and you'll have the crispier lineart of your life.

using a sharpening filter at the end of a lineart pass seems like a no brainer. I wonder why i've never thought of using it. thanks for the tip.

Yeah i did that too when i used photoshop, because the brush engine is so bad you need to use 10px for the thinnest lines.

After i seitched to Krita I work with like 150% the target resolution just so it looks extra crisp when downscaling.
Any normal art application allows you to just draw in desired native resolution

it doesn't matter, normies will eat up wii u sketches even and most aspiring artists dont work too absurd. frankly i hate when i open something my image viewer freezes for a few seconds to load. and then when it does load there is aliasing. at some point its just too much, nobody is even looking at your fucking micropixels that you yourself the artist don't even focus on at 100000x100000

Something similar.
10-15k pixels on bigger side.
My main brush is textured so if I scale it below its default size it starts to feel like absolute shit. But with big enough canvas everything is nice and smooth.

That's part of the reason I prefer working at smaller sizes. I never cared for "in your face" gigantic digital art, I only enjoy seeing giant art pieces irl at art museums.
Having to constantly zoom in and out on a giant canvas also never felt natural to me, since I'm a mainly a tradfag who sticks to sketchbook sized stuff.
