fuck off, ethan

I'm thankful for Ethan because he culls the competition by feeding aspiring artists garbage advice.

>>4902480
annoying fuck with 'youtube' personality

>>4902480
Today, I will remind them.

>>>/ic/thread/S1892691

>>4902492
Shieeeet, wrong Ethan. Still good read for hearty keks.

>>4902480
Ethan is great, his techniques are beginner friendly.

>>4902492
kek love it when false flaggers on ic gets exposed
its also surprising that this tradition dates way back to 2014 yet people on this board still constantly fall for it to this day

I hate that kind of self aware smug ironic memeposter shit personality ahhhhhhhh

He taught to me never drawing from imagination so i don't do it anymore and feels great

>>4902480
>What have you learned from Ethan Becker
That your skill means nothing

He taught me that he's really fucking annoying.
Also he draws the same fucking girl over and over agin.

>>4902487
Just like /ic/

>>4902576
ngmi

>>4902480
I learned that you can draw nothing but disgusting niggers in the most hideous art style imaginable, and normalfags will lap it up as long as you're charismatic enough.

>Have no clue who this guy is
>Expect him to be an overcompensating Right Wing Art tier lolcow based on the beard and taking shots in the title of his video and the unfashionable American flag
>Google his art and-
>Holy shit no way
>No fucking way
>It's the zoomer-millenial Tumblr art everyone complains about
>Oh my fucking God and it's drawn by this guy and his aura of all people
>My fucking sides

>>4902585
You say that, but his discord houses more good/decent artist than /ic/.

>>4902901
See image
>>4902899
Keep them there

>>4902480
Lmao he is a faggot.

>>4902480
talentless hack

>>4902492
KEKEk
I remember doing that portrait and the mecha dinosaur burger animu
damn time flies

>>4902480
Fuck that guy I can't stand him

>>4902899
Ethan is based. You can talk shit about his art style but his methods are very practical. I love the "use reference videos, not images"

>>4902982
Unfortunately for this Ethan bloke there's dozens of people out there who reference with real people and not any flat images who mog him to shit and kill this niche you claim he has.

I learned from him that you can become a C-grade youtube art celebrity purely by presenting an attitude.

>>4903003
Indeed, which is why you never take anything here seriously.

>>4902899
Pyw

>>4902480
That you should produce and share content regularly, associate your name with other big names like he did in the OP image (by using soft baits or not) and jump into trending dramas like the Inktober thing to gain visibility.
I really don't like his videos but if you do what he does, you'll make it.

>>4902997
he's aiming more for animation industry standards which mogs your starving portrait specialists. What he's teaching brings money I bet you can't say the same.

>>4902480
Great attitude. Love the presentation of his videos.

He baits people with his dramatic titles but, honestly, not a big deal. He puts a lot of effort into the actual content.

Not someone I would personally want to learn art from, but for a good quip here or there, he is fine.

/ic/ is salty his discord has more people than this place.

>>4904765
No shit, that discord has more credibility and better teachers than this shithole.

> DRAWING MORE WILL NEVER! EVER! MAKE YOU BETTER
And this dude has 500k subs. What a joke. This is the equivalent of scammers that say you can 10x your savings with this one simple trick. It preys on the desperate and absolves them of being held to a higher standard.

>>4904811
He's right - if you look at /dad/, /ag/, or any other general, it's pretty surefire proof of that.

You can't just cherry-pick one liners from him like that. That's the kind of bait he uses to get 500K subs because plebs like you fall for it - whether you're clicking on his video or thinking you've btfo'd him on /ic/

What he actually says: you need to slow the fuck down and look at the thing you're drawing.

He repeats the same memery for drawing from imagination. Probably one of my favorite clips from him.

/ic/ would do well to seethe less because he is just a guy having fun putting on a show on youtube for an audience. Take a deep breath, and calm down.

>>4904803
It’s okay that you’re too much of a pussy to handle real criticism of your art like “read Loomis” and “grind fundies.” It just means you’re NGMI.

>>4902585
I legitimately sucked the dick of the guy who created that server
It was fucking magical

He bought me a juice too.
I still think about him

>>4904854
not the guy you replied to, but pyw

black lives matter except for Alphonso Duns's

>>4905197

>>4905197
The anon is being ironic.

>>4902480
how not to present your ideas and criticism if you don't want to come off like a jackass

what, his intention was to teach something? I thought it was just entertainment value

>>4904860
we need numbers anon

>>4905337
poggers

>>4905397
what do you mean numbers

>>4905410
dimensions

>>4905252
Where are the toes?

>>4905405
POGS will never go out of style!

>>4905405
>>4905556
What the fuck does this stupid zoomer meme even mean?

>>4905559
>pic related is pogchamp

>>4902585
Did that faggot really made a cigarette his entire personality?

>>4905416
7 inches
very smooth and pretty looking phallus

>>4902480
He wears sunglasses indoors/in his videos because otherwise he looks like a bearded lady
hard pass

>>4902480
i like his videos. kind of deconstructs the stupid cunts that post stupid shit on this site.

>>4902480
Art not good enough to gain traffic so you leverage on drama, clickbait, and other people more successful than you = Ethan Becker

worse art than baileyjay and less tolerable as a person

>fixing kim jung gis art
>rambles for 10 minutes
>does nothing
>1 million views
>pushes his calarts shit on others

>>4904641
animation is for art school drop outs who get sent to the inbetween mills in korea or tumblr core gender non conformist who get hired to join the circlejerk on the premise of a very different set of skills and qualities. nobody gets payed in animation for their drawing skills

>>4904841
>>4904811
you're both right yet your both wrong. drawing more will always lead to further improvement, but you need to draw with a goal in mind. mindless grinding doesn't get you anywhere but patting yourself on the back because you did one conscious study doesn't solve anything either

he is an industry union plant who will destroy the mentality and skillset of the zoomer artist generation

I learnt that shit talk can gather your 500k followers.

>>4902480
He has decent advice and can present it in an interesting way. The problem is artists types are very prone to butthurt; They take a character Becker plays to make his videos fun as serious.

It's been kinda fun watching the bloodbath, honestly.

I haven't known anyone with real talent who follows Ethan, almost all of his fanbase are ngmi. He's an art equivalent of a quack doctor.

>>4907964
>I haven't known anyone with real talent who uses ic, almost all of it’s users are ngmi. It’s an art equivalent of a of a special needs class.

>>4903003
>took ethan becker to figure that out

marketing is everything, ultimately that's all that matters.

>>4907977
>ic
Okay, Ethan.

>>4902480
Isn't this fucker just a better jazza?

>>4907977
The fact that you're here implies you're one of us, dumbfuck.

My discord has more promising talents than this cancer board, so stay mad bitches!

>>4902480
I'm tempted to watch this guys videos and do the exact opposite of what he says and see how I turn out.

>>4908140
Just because i browse this board doesn’t mean i’m a ngmi like you, retard.

>>4908196
Pyw then

>>4905560

You mean gootecks.

>>4908256
the twitch emote is pogchamp

>>4906398
so the real deal is grind as a dog on a july day while focusing on every line you do

>>4908743
you're kinda one of those what they call stupid

>>4908755
i prefer the term retard

That's literally a copy from Takehiko Inoue's manga "Vagabond", the character is Miyamoto Mushashi and its originally drawn in black and white. The Coloring is pretty good tho.

>>4902480
look /ic you tell me when there's a video of him accidentally cutting himself with the knives then i'll watch again.
