>floating amawu head

>>7039468
Did he use a reference again or did he draw it completely on his own?

>>7039468
Does he only ever draw the same Anime girl face? Lol

>>7039468
trans

>drawing a few minutes a day will result in being able to draw the same anime face
itsliterallynothing.gif

>>7039468
He literally made more progress in 3 months than most of this board in years.
This fucking guy.

>>7039468
even if he was only copying the same few anime faces he still drew every day and frankly being able to copy floating anime girl heads is simultaneously the goal, and completely unattainable for most of the "people" on this board. i will praise him for drawing every day and for his coloring skills but i will reserve my comments on the fact that he exclusively draws from pages of pirated manga on his cellphone.

>>7039531
You're not going to get boosted from him bro, stop brown nosing.

>>7039532
pyw so you can get mogged by this swedish nigger with a seismograph of a right hand

Because animu is the easiest fucking thing to draw

>>7039550
Yet /asg/ can’t do it

>>7039468
>trad chad
I kneel
Also, wasn't he graphic designer or something? I assume it could help him a bit.

its over...

Low IQ

>>7039553
/asg/ is convinced there is some kind of secret sauce to copying anime that isn't being disclosed and if they just do it enough, they'll get there. To a degree copying a reference will help, but then they go and ignore all the interviews with actual mangakas who straight up said they also learned fundamentals when starting out.

>>7039505
/thread
Everyone has been there once as a teen, then you try background and realize the size of the iceberg so you start to either finally take fundies seriously or keep drawing the same shit forever from fear of failing and learning

>>7039562
Most people are content with the latter. It's just a hobby for many

>>7039468
Very cute, I don't have any excuses to give because I also diligently practiced everyday to get better. Hard work and a little critical thinking is all you need to improve.

>>7039468
he lives comfortably in good environment and has soft skills needed to improve faster

can't wait for people being inspired by him, trying the same and then crushed by forcing themselves to draw every day an their lack of fast improvement in comparison to him
few ones who will keep going will reach intermediate or better level

>>7039468
I hope I get good playing guitar in a few months, still can't memorize the frets and I'm on week 3 already. Drawing was much easier to start seeing results

>>7039590
>This is PewDiePie's drawing couple months in drawing literally few minutes a day. Your excuses?
“most people” or “hobbyists” couldn’t give less of a shit about the premise of some faggot on youtube getting better than them by investing a few minutes a day, imbecile. this is not and never was a hobbyist board

>>7039814
Just keep working on getting those chord shapes into your muscle memory. Keep your thumb behind the neck too.
And never forget to stretch your hand before practice. If you think you can't hit a chord, it's likely because you forgot to stretch.
Good luck, anon

>>7039819
what the fuck is it then?

>>7039821
nta but it was about getting good enough for concept art jobs, then commissions, then coommissions, now it's just a hobby because it's just not worth pursuing an art career, there are easier shit for better pay and job security out there

>>7039468
I am calling for ASG's removal if one of the thread ambassadors does not present their work and prove they are better than pewds ^.^ let's go bros

>>7039468
> rich man with fuck you money has all the free time in the world
I know you're a retard, OP, but put some more effort into using your brain once in a while.

>>7039906
Your excuse is you don't have free time? How long have you been an artist?

>>7039518
cause fucks on this board treat art like it's a job
the neets grind fundies thinking one day they'll """make it"""
truly making it is drawing whatever you like for fun without any money involved, the purest expression of the human imagination

>>7039906
What’s next you can’t draw because you have no arms, ligameme, no talent, etc?You retards and the excuses you make, people who work in jobs like computer engineering can put out professional or close to professional work, you’re just lazy.

>Meanwhile after YEARS following /ic/s beloved westoid permacrab potato head chickenscratch teachers

it seems like he just does a bunch of this. it cant be that difficult right? even though the end product looks pretty, you havent actually created anything new.

>>7039981
well this is how you learn to draw lol

>>7039978
Funny you’re saying this, when /asg/ shitters like you will take 2+ years to reach pewdiepie’s level, hell not even 2 years, but hard stuck at perma/beg/ lvl.

>>7039989

>>7039560
Doesnt change the fact that the discussed guy doesnt have fundies and mogs /asg/ either way kek

>>7039978
use crayon you moron

>>7040042
observation drawing is one fundie, and it's good enough to get you far if you're resourceful

>>7039468
he can only draw anime girl faces, what exactly did he learn?

>>7040051
more than you and 90% of this board

>>7040053
I'm busy trying to draw accurate anime styled bodies, with hands and feet in any pose from my mind, instead of drawing the same anime girl face 100 times.

>2 influencer threads

>>7040058
Show your progress smartass

>>7040103
I'm not happy with it, I've been drawing for 39 days. I have not drawn something everyday but I have been drawing frequently. Drawing is hard because it's like math, you have to study and be able to visualize objects rotating in 3D, ANY object. Like imagining hand movement and toes bending.

>>7039981
It might just be me but the csm manga looks so fucking bad at times. It may be his style but it looks kinda uncanny

>coharent
Minor spelling mistake, your opinion is now void.

i dont care what the fuck your boyfriend did this time, he already the attention he wanted. fuck off.

the guys a cancer, just spreads everywhere.

>>7040111
He wasnt happy with his art either but still posted it anyway and didnt just draw same 100 anime faces if you actually watched the video. And thus everyone could see how he progressed from day 1. That's the difference between him and you

>>7039976
Let me guess, you're a corpocuck who thinks we should normalize 80 hour work weeks?

>>7040149
.t low functioning retard larping as high functioning

>>7040200
> can't do the t. meme right
Case in point.

>>7040195
he just copies, I'm trying to learn how objects move in 3D spaces. It is not fun, drawing is not fun it's like math class.

>>7039468

>>7040156
are you a fucking retard learn to read
did the voices in your walls make that spelling mistake for you too?

go back to twitter alphie

>>7039468
I still draw better than him but he completely mogs my coloring.

Yes, he has a lot of free time, but that's not it.
He was a constant YouTuber personality for >10 years, he's used to the grind and shitty deadlines, he's used to have a creative job and now that he's semi-retired has a lot of energy.
Normally his son would suck it up, be since he doesn't have to work since he already has the money, he can be a dad.

>He's a millionaire
>He has a lot of free time
Those are valid excuses. I can't buy alcohol markers without guilt to try and fuck up, and he doesn't come home mentally devastated from work.
But you miss the point that he's used to working his ass off daily anyways.

The fact that of all the things he was trying, drawing is what stuck with him, makes me happy for the guy.

>>7040261
>I can't buy alcohol markers without guilt
just buy ohuhus

I get that buying chinese sucks but they're legitimately really good and dirt cheap.

>>7039906
>He has a lot of free time
You forgot that
>he started recently as a gimmick and improved at a fast pace
>he isnt a neet closed in his room 24/7 and has a baby and other things to take care of
Seethe and cope eternal beglet

>>7040283
>pursue things with energy and genuine passion, gets better
WOW!

>>7040251
Retarded neet, stop playing video games

>>7040290
Haven't played games since a friends meeting. I don't own a console and my computer is too weak to run anything, perks of a third world

>>7039981
because he's learning, not creating something new

>>7039981
Were you not a kid drawing pokemon in your notebook?

>>7039468
negroes on this board are really convinced they have to grind boxes, perspective, anatomy, mechanical engineering, and astrophysics at a chinese boarding school from the age of 0-23 before they can start drawing the things they want so its pretty neat to see a video showing that an old man started drawing the things he wanted and improved at it without all that

>>7040314
/ic/ wants to draw more than floating heads, otherwise they wouldn't be here to begin with. you did know how to draw floating heads before you were even aware of online drawing communities being a thing, right?

>>7040331
cope, IC doesnt draw, and when they do they waste time doing loomis shit and other unneccesary unappealing slop

>>7040283
he did not "just" start drawing, it's always been something he did on and off. he just started copying hard from manga for some reason.

t. lore master

>>7040331
>/ic/ wants to draw more than floating heads
i looked at the catalogue and the situation isnt looking good right now anon

>>7039978

lol

>>7040357
>that took me 1 hour
That always gets me

>>7040362
And that guy still got mogged by pewdiepie

>>7040357
/beg/ here, so what do you have to do to avoid this? I'm terrified of becoming this.

>>7040422
study bridgeman twice or 3x before attempting anime. all mangaka have done it at least 4 or 5x

>>7040430
lol

>>7040422
>>7040434
oh and study loomis (especially his old men egg heads) and make sure to really get down drawing boomers, it translates really well into drawing cute anime girls

>>7040422

>>7040422
observation > proportion > simplification with simple 3d shapes > basic perspective > anatomy

avoid drawing a human until later, draw apples and other simple things from your house from observation with attention to proportion (read how to draw from observation or watch a video), don't render, once you're confident in your observation and proportion measuring skills move to drawing spheres, cylinders, cubes from reference then from imagination (read on perspective here), render them by separating the shadow from the light first, then adding the bounce light on the shadow and then adding some light variation in the light area, now go back to the fruits and render them with the knowledge you got rendering simple shapes, use the exact same workflow you used for the forms rendering but at the end and only at the end add the details. now draw these fruits from imagination using what you learned drawing simple shapes from imagination. if you're not happy with the drawing in any of the step, fix it if it's from a referenced step or go back to drawing from reference if from imagination.
this will take at most a week if you spend 2 hours

now you move to a referenced sculpted bust or a high quality anime doll head and take your sweet time with it because you'll be dealing with observation, a lot of proportion, a lot of shape simplification, perspective and quite a few anatomy all at once. if you're not happy with it check proportions, it will most likely be a proportion problem at this point, only render if you're completely sure you got the proportions right or else you'll learn some of the shapes of the face related to rendering wrong to make up for the proportion problem. do three more using a bust/doll that has similar facial features then try drawing it from imagination while checking for anything you're not sure about

you can check how other artists solve/put some marks to convey certain shapes without having to render,readbooks tolearnhow toapproachasubjct

>>7040422
def take advice from /ic/

>>7040422
for the love of god, dont forget to draw that's the most important thing draw a lot

>>7039468
I'm impressed, I can draw characters from different angles but I can't draw pretty hair like he does, cool

>>7040596
Find better pics to copy from

>>7039468
Pewdiepie plays up his retard spastic persona out of showmanship but he's actually extremely intelligent and also demonstrates outrageous persistence and consistency in literally everything he does
Intelligence is talent, consistency dictates the rate of XP acquisition
This is why he is so good so fast

>>7040710
>this is why he is so good so fast
Or maybe it's because he's a literal millionaire that can dedicate as much free time to a hobby as he wants.

>>7040713
>im bad because im not rich
Dont kid yourself you would masturbate and play videogames just like you do now instead of drawing

>>7040295
let me guess, you dont even draw?

>>7040768
Don't act like this isn't a factor, you disingenuous faggot.

>>7040786

>>7040820
Manlets will never have the body of Shaq, even if they trained longer and harder than he has in his entire lifetime.

Most shitty artists don’t understand the concept of potential and how only certain people are gifted with the natural ability they want.
There is only one Nobuteru Yūki, no matter how badly I wish my art looked exactly like his because he was a naturally gifted Asian with Japanese genetics and culture that made his ability possible. At 23 years old I will never be able to achieve that dream. Every artist has their own style and I will never draw in that style. My Asian-American friends all draw kemono characters in a stylistically perfect and soulful way that I wish I could do on a tablet, with pencil and paper.

It’s not fair, but that’s how the world works. East Asia always wins and if AI is enough to piss off the higher race I’ve envied for years, then I’ll personally fund it. They’ve had it too good for too long

>>7040862
Art is a mostly mental activity so you are in no way limited by your outwards appearence or genetics unless you are severely disabled. Of course there are beginners everywhere including asians, so if you use that as an excuse you are not being truthful to yourself.

In your case you are not willing to put in the time and effort to improve any more and that's fine. That's your choice what you do with your time.

>>7040862
I'd say the only advantage that people from an asian culture have is that they are surrounded by anime art for their entire life and learn passively from a very young age.

But there are plenty of dogshit artists from asia

Charlie hired artists and writers to make his comic.
Pewdiepie will actually draw his own.

Yall always make me laugh

>>7040874
Even bad Japanese artists have styles that’re distinctly Japanese. You can notice one even in a sea of good western artists and they’re usually still more soulful than Americans who’re experienced and trying.

They just haven’t perfected their gifts, highbreed ingrates

>>7040910

>>7040497
>observation > proportion > simplification with simple 3d shapes > basic perspective > anatomy
QFT!!!! i personally fell for the drawabox meme which skipped over observation (barely a mention) and pretty much only did perspective, with hints of simple 3d shapes. but now going back to fundies to do it right, this is the path you need.

>>7040960
you really oughta go back to /v/, shitter

>>7039819
>this is not and never was a hobbyist board
Yeah, it's a board of nodraw crabs shitting on each other and telling /beg/s they will never make it if they don't study crusty Loomis books day and night.

>>7041076
NOOOOOOOOOO you cant learn by drawing your target, you must draw wrinkly old men!!! study LE MASTERS

>>7040960
What salt? I'm happy for Pewds. I'm mystified by how stupid people like you are that I wonder how you manage to breathe.

>>7040784
I do, why?

>>7040960
>never copied pokemans and gokus in school
What zoomers even do in school? In my time there was no phones so you either got good with a ball or nerded it out on something during recreation

>>7039978
>zero understanding of form
unless he's just using it as an excuse to stare at naked men without being outed as gay

>>7039468
>Your excuses?
Does being a virgin count?
The thing that made me a virgin is the same thing that is holding me back in drawing and everything else.
It's not a great excuse but it's the only expalanation for what I am.
I am retarted.

>>7041193
>I am retarted.
noticed. am too

>>7039978
unironically he spent more time adding in his retarded schizo shit than he did drawing

>>7041071
I want to see the work of those who are unimpressed by pewds rapid progress.

>>7041148
did you get that good in 100 days?

>>7041257
At copying pokemans? Maybe, my memory could be playing tricks and I might be remembering it with some rosiness. I remember being really proud of a Lugia drawing

>>7039468
Fuck i feel so useless now

>>7041261
Lugia? is that some new pokemon?
>my memory could be playing tricks and I might be remembering it with some rosiness
my mom found some of my old goku drawings from 1999 and showed me, They were nowhere near as good as I remembered. I used to sell them too...

>>7039468
Ai fags on suicide watch
It's over for them, I never thought I'd say this but PewDiePie is pretty based. I honestly thought he was nothing more than zoomies messiah for saving Minecraft or something, but now he's saving real art.

>>7041269
One of the newest legendaries

>>7039468
Damn very impressive tbqh makes me want to quit drawing

>>7041275
even though I'm miles ahead, I felt motivated to fill up extra pages today... just in case. pewds will not catch up to me... never... impossible...

>>7039518
Because he probably has the the bare minimum IQ require to realize that if you want to draw X you should just copy X a lot rather than grinding boxes
Seriously why does this board refuse to just do the same

>>7041295
But /ic/ wants to draw from imagination

>>7041299
first you copy, then you invent
retards want to draw without knowing how things look like

>>7041304
Yes, that doesn't mean you won't see a dip in quality when moving on to trying the new thing. Half of /ic/ can copy, including beg and asg, if they can copy well there is little reason to continue to post their copies anymore for critique so they post what they are struggling with for critique to see if others can check their blind spots and look on what they are missing

/ic/ has been fun to read ever since pewds started drawing

>>7041299
Shit you imagine is still made up of stuff you have actually seen
Sure dragons don‘t actually exist but reptiles do which probably influenced your idea of what a dragon should look like so studying them hells you draw the imagined thing

>>7039518
Proof that his success didn't come randomly. It was the result of many years of discipline.
What this board lacks is just that. Nodraw faggots flinging shit at each other.

>>7039468
>talent idn't rea-

>>7039468
shitime is easy to draw

>>7040862
East Asians do not possess any form of special artistic skill or special artistic potential that is not available to Europeans.
I agree that you will never be able to achieve that dream, but that's because you've committed to investing all the mental energy and time you could have used to it into explaining to yourself and others why you aren't able instead of trying.
Pathetic.

Thank god I never felt for all these memes

>>7041359
Sorry about your cousin

>>7039468
So, how did he learn? What he did follow?

>>7039468
None. I've barely tried and got the results I deserved from it. Pewdiepie's grind is admirable and I wish I had put forth the same effort when I started. Now I have a ton of bad habits to slowly but surely rip out from it.

>>7041419
he just drew and used reference

Anime is easy I can do it won't pmw tho

>>7041419
Observation and proportion

>anons saying pyw when small artists can't afford to have their work stolen unlike pewds who is a super celeb

>>7039468
remove the color and youll quickly see how lipstik on a pig rendering helps hide a lot of mistakes and hideous art. this is a 5 minute doodle he probably spent hours on as well. and it looks like shit. hes a fucking 40 year old man learning to draw like a 5 year old girl. its fucking embarrassing.

>>7041430
You say that, yet the vast majority of the board can’t draw like that despite putting in more years in practicing.

>>7041433
check outside /beg/ and /asg/

>>7041430
>hes a fucking 40 year old man learning to draw like a 5 year old girl
that the exact kind of mindset that impedes adults from learning new things
the fact that he can overcome his ego/embarassment is something to be admired

>>7039468
>drawing from imagination on the left
Been there done that

>>7041434
Anon, that’s the main population of this board. Just like any art community, there are few decent or great artist that post here.

>>7041435
>that the exact kind of mindset that impedes adults from learning new things
It doesn't help that most of society will reinforce that though.

>>7041438
There is like 7 where most of them got maybe a bit less than half of posters that are similar or at a better drawing skill than pewdiepie and that's comparing their drawing from imagination to pewd's drawing from observation

>>7040960
>>7040960
100d is a stretch, anyone with over 50iq should be able to replicate the same in less than 2 weeks

>>7041586
You google and save 180*360 different views to use as reference, duh

>>7041347
Neither will you.
White artists always talk big about putting in the effort until you see their efforts

I'm genuinely convinced now that a little bit of coloring can make a mediocre drawing look good. Props to him for effort, but I'm hardly shitting myself over this if that's your intention.

>>7039468
Why are White people so obsessed with Japan?!

inb4 Im also White

>>7041670
You didn't know anon? Big ass eyes and decent coloring will take you really far.

This unironically looks like AI, not even in a bad way, but it just does.

>>7042397
no, I don't see an absurd amount of highlights

I mean, copying is the easiest thing you can do in drawing.

I drew this literally 2 weeks after starting to draw without ever doing it in my entire life before, maybe when I was a kid.

I think where the hard part starts is the body, and drawing body poses from imagination in different perspectives. Even with reference, it's hard to get a pose like you imagine it in your head on paper.

And when the average autist of /ic/ comes here, he feels the NEED to grind through fundies instead of drawing/copying what he likes. It's just 4chan autism to do everything perfectly by the book from the beginning.

>>7041347
What about Indians and Africans?

>>7039978
Hahahahahahahhaa holy fuck, is this what retards that fell for the loomis meme look like? Taking advice from permabegs is the worst thing newfag a can do on /ic/

>>7042427

>>7042398
Depends on the AI I guess, it just reminded me of something like picrel.

>>7042432
ahhhh the early 2000s bring me backkkkkkk

>>7042425
You always copy when you start out, that's how you learn.
Also not sure you're aware but this is an incredibly accurate sketch if it was truly 2 weeks after you picked up a pen. Couple of wonky lines around the chest but overall impressive lines given the time.

I feel pretty in different but then again i spent more time copying and construction.

Composition and perspective was something i wqs willing to draw an nail down this year

I dont feel inferior but empty because art isnt my staple job puting food in the table but something i did for fun and the will of it

It also hurt since i dont have a lot a time as i pulled overtime for my job and family coupled to see that pewdiepie already has a kid to boot. But maybe im looking too internally in myself

>>7040334
This anon gets it. That's not to say his improvement is great because it is, rather he's always had an eye for anime aesthetics even before his Youtuber days.

>>7042497
*isn't great because it is

Perdie is fake, he hire japanese to drew to him then film, look hand not equal scam scam scam

I just want to be better than yesterday

Drawing is just a hobby of mine. It all comes from personal satisfaction

But is it enough? I dunno

>>7042397
I can see it. like he copied the ai artifacts, like the extra grooves in her ear, the melty cheese spaghetti hair, the random hair lengths, the double turtleneck collar. Could chalk those up to unsteady hand, common reference/popular style/pintrest etc. but I wouldn't be surprised if he later mentions using AI for ref.
As AI gets better I don't think it's too bad to copy it for learning, but when learning from artwork, it's nicer to find artists you love to copy, you carry their legacy in you, be inspired by them, instead of literally "my style is the algorithm".

>swedish aryan chad who is a millionaire from his easy dream job, settling down in JAPAN, to draw anime

It took me 3 years to get a good floating anime head. I want to kms. I don't have the talent.

>>7042964
I can draw better than kim jung gi, cos he can't draw no mo.

I've never really drawn much and I've never had the patience to draw, is the pewdiepie method worth it? I got burned out years ago from drawabox and quit drawing.

>guys look pewdiepie could do it so can you! stop being lazy! Just draw, thats it!
>btw can you commission me, I could really use some money?
>while you are at it donate to gaza

>>7039468
>Your excuses?
I have no excuses. Because I draw way more each day.

>>7042432
Nobody outside east Asia can draw like this anymore.
There’s a very specific flavor of soul that comes from this era of mangaka that nobody can replicate anymore. It pisses me off how rare it is now after every weeb dropped it for simplified slop

>>7041597
>muh swedish jeans

>>7043071
imagine having to invent an enemy that believes in Bad Things so you have an excuse to not draw

>>7039468
Pretty nice, had a similar experience with a buddy of mine who out of the blue decided to start drawing and i couldn't believe how quickly he improved either, so it's not impossible.

I think there's some things to note or maybe draw lessons from for people who haven't improved as quickly or have plateaued.
> the learning curve can be more forgiving in the beginning and gets steeper as you go along.
> Pursue something that you like and practice towards that consistently. Don't get bogged down practicing things that won't help with your immediate goal.
> less the right way is better than more the wrong way. ic is kinda notorious for this, with the idea that you just have to grind it out to git gud. I think like this you get people like pawell >>7039978 who just throw a bunch of shit at the wall hoping something sticks. If your mind isn't engaged while drawing you won't learn anything.
> Have fun. Frame of mind is pretty important, anxiety, despair or negativity can hamper you a lot.
> appreciate your art for what it is, it'll help you keep going. I think in the vid pewdiepie said there where 40 days between drawings he actually liked, for some people it's incredibly difficult to go on despite that.
> Have the courage to try full and finished drawings, don't seek permanent refugee in practice.
> try to figure out your goals / motivations. Initially I only pursued art because it's the only thing I ever got feedback on as something I had a talent for, trying to figure out what you even want at a late stage or trying to improve without knowing that is a recipe for failure.

>>7039468
I thought it took years to learn how to draw?

>>7043459
Is that your excuse?

I literally came here to /ic/ because of those videos. I feel motivated to draw. I have a sketchbook on my shopping list.

"Your excuses?"
Laziness, procrastination, insecurity, insecurity about my online username handle and internet history coming back to haunt me etc.

But as for drawing I'm feeling pumped.

>>7043429
it is until we are shown otherwise.(we won't, pewds mogs them all)

Yep, you should see how many people hold the same excuses and mentally the average /ic/ shitter has. People across social media, like insta, reddit, tiktak, etc are making the excuses on why they are struggling to improve

>>7039468
>>7039810
Nice progress, well the guy has some pretty great pressure on him. Picking up a hobby and going public with it means people are gonna have expectations on his growth pattern.
Like imagine having a few million people focused on you, how do you learn?
He could have picked up drawing/painting as a hobby and never shared anything, the fact he did so for content puts him under a pretty good amount of pressure, regardless of how comfortable his life is.

>>7043644
What pressure?

>>7041810
100 fucking dayz for a le 3/4 floating awimu heado

>>7043645
You make an anime face and people on 4chan make 6 gazillion threads about you trying to either put you down or praising you.
Fuckers quit when one retarded crab tells them they are prebeg or ngmi, now imagine this but amplified by 10000.
Would you share your art hobby if you were in his shoes or keep it to yourself so people won't bother you?
Going public with your art already gives you a good amount of pressure to grow.

>>7043651
What do you think would happen if he tried to draw and failed and posted his experience of him trying, do you think his fans would boo him and stop watching him or praise and even help him for drawing 100 days despite failing

>>7043645
art community toxicity is second only to LoL, the pressure comes from barely sentient, permanently online salt monsters who will rip apart anything and everything a person shares, multiplied by millions because it's pewdiepie and not some random slob nobody. in reality the pressure is non-existent to him, but the slavering beasts of art communities around the world think they can exert some pressure to perform on him. they are waiting for him to post something that isn't as good or doesn't track with his perceived velocity of progression so they can mainline some copium over never drawing, case in point the proko kangaroo.

>>7043658
You don't understand, failure is part of the journey.
The fags who fail and stop at their failure are losers.
There is no such a thing as trying to draw and succeeding, you draw, fail, learn from failures and proceed.
What is success? You get the 10000 shit prebeg drawings out of your pen and avoid repeating those failures.
Those who let failure cripple them are their own enemy.
Your attitude towards learning is the problem, failure should never stop you from trying again and if you do give up blame yourself for being a pussy and not your failed drawings, because those are part of your journey.
Those who reject failure shall never know success.

>>7043661
I have yet to experience that toxicity

>>7043664

>>7043666

>>7043663
Wrong post response?

>>7043687
No you just missed the point fren, nobody can help you on this journey, no fans nor anyone.
If you need help to handle your own failures, that's another problem.
You believe that whatever pressure he faces should either be people abandoning him/losing his popularity and if that doesn't happen then he bears no pressure at all because his fans will just cuddle him regardless.
Now I ask you, if you were to post an anime head and people were to give you this much attention, be it positive or negative how would you handle it?
For me it would have been a 100 times better to keep art to myself especially if I don't need to make it into my livelihood or source of income.

>>7043694
I don't draw anime heads though so I wouldn't know how they would respond therefore I can't say how I would handle their response

>>7043701
I see, good luck

Can someone explain why this faggot is still in the internet when he clearly announced he was retiring due to sexhaver privileges (having descendants)?

>>7044306
Retiring doesn't mean you're not allowed to continue working. He's retired which means he doesn't consider anything his job. He has all the money he could want, so he just makes videos as he pleases because the guy just likes making videos.

People who worship celebrities should be kept out of the gene pool.

>>7044320
>should be kept out of the gene pool.
Faggot almost 99% of the males on this planet are out of the gene pool, what's your point?

It's kinda of unfair how some people pick up a hobby and get good so fast while others struggle so much they give up after a few months of never seeing any improvement

>>7044321
My point is that you're never going to get someone who is better telling it how it is due to the high risk how fucking themselves over for something so trivial when lying and brownnosing the big eceleb would take you actual places and memeing the whole
>uuuuuuh only people who cant draw and suck are saying this hurr durr epic meme lol lmao
Is the most retarded and obvious shit i've seen in years.
They've got nothing to lose and only to gain, of course, if it's someone saying something, it's gotta be a beg.

Also people who worship other people are not people and don't deserve any respect.

>>7044324
he got good advice and listened to it
we give bad advice here for fun

>>7044373
No it's more like he actually took the advice. anons here ask for advice, get it(the same advice pewds got, use ref), and don't do anything.

>>7044324
Some people are literally <80iq, it is what it is.

At first I wanted to get angry but then when he went to the part where he showed his colored drawings I honestly started to get inspired. It puts things in perspective really. You really have to be brave about the things you want to do instead of just stalling and doing endless studies or whatever.

Also for the people clowning on Loomis... japs love Loomis. In fact the generic anime head construction is just a simplified version of the Loomis head...

>>7044444
>checked

>>7042425
>t-talent isn't real!!
There's countless people who've been drawing for years who couldn't produce a copy as accurate as that. I've been drawing for well over a decade, and well enough that I regularly sell commissions and whatnot, but it would take me forever to make a copy anywhere close to that accurate, unless I plotted everything out to the point that I lost sight of what I was even drawing.

>>7040357
Pewds didn't just copy he also learned in first day to draw construction for head it's literally in his first video then he started copying.

>people beliving he learned it in 100 days
Lmao
Hopefully I can ride this wave creating my own fake 30 days journey, but I suck at speaking to the cam

I think several factors are at play here:

1. He’s has a great low-stress life-style, free from many of the worries the average man has, such as working. Thus he has more energy and can focus better at learning. I experienced the same thing when I quit my job for 9 months, I made huge improvements in my observational drawing skills because I had literally nothing to worry about and all the time in the world.

2. He’s naturally industrious and very motivated

3. Greasing the groove. He drew every day, when you draw the same thing everyday, you get a priming effect in the brain. Because the same information is being rehearsed, your ability to recall becomes faster and more efficient. You’re able to draw upon your short term memory of the previous day and apply it.
It’s like greasing the groove with pull-ups. You do multiple sets of low reps spread across the day everyday for months, and eventually your max reps increase because of neural-learning.

4. He was drawing for fun mostly without any lofty expectations that might frustrate him. You ever notice that when you draw for fun with low expectations, you often counterintuitively produce better results compared to drawing super strict and rigidly?

I hypothesize that many of the /begs/ and intermediates here might actually be cucking themselves with a rigid fundamentals-based approach to everything they do. Maybe we just need loosen up and draw more spontaneously for fun like pewds, not caring about fundies as much. + greasing the groove a little everyday or 4-5 days a week. Maybe that’s the secret.

>>7039468

>>7044810
The coping starts

>>7044810
nice cope
it's not like he spends 10 hours a day drawing. stress point is valid to some degree, but we all know stress or lack of money is not the reason why some people stay beg-tier all their life

>>7044818
Look all I'm saying is most people have to worry about money. He could basically stop working and not have to think about money again.
He could create a video here and there for fun and "make a living." It's totally different for someone even if they were a NEET or something and they'd have to worry about a budget and not buy too many things and they're living on cheap food and shit.
I think it's good he's chasing his passion and that he's inspiring people but it's not 1 for 1, his situation and most people at /ic/ or whatever aren't similar.

Reminder that Pewdiepie uses the loomis method for heads

>>7044810
What a weak human being

>>7044810
cope, he spent barely 10-20min a day. Hes better because he put in consistent efforts to get stronger

>>7044824
>buy too many things and they're living on cheap food and shit.
Isn't that everyone already? What are you even wasting your money and time on?

>>7044775
People really don't understand how much different a happy, mentally healthy person's life is who is surrounded by people who love him. Its like living on another planet. Of course he improves fast as fuck when he has people encouraging him too. You cannot compare him to yourself.

>>7044853
in a way he did what piano teachers recommend
don't worry about spending too much time, but make the time you do spend all about focused, deliberate practice

>entire thread is armchair psychologists or retards praising poodapoop's chink cartoon drawing with eyes too far apart

>>7044810
you know the cope is blinding them when they can say "he has businesses and therefore lots of free time"

>>7044854
"Wasting" money neccessities and whatever shit that breaks constantly, just lost my gym bag this week, shoes broke 6 months ago.
People like pewdiepie can move to one of the best countries in the world and buy a house or a mansion and basically get whatever he wants.

>>7044867
In this case it's true though, pewdiepie is in a pretty unique situation. He has tons of fans that just watch whatever he produces so he's not reliant say on one game or some niche like a lot of other people are

>>7044891
How does getting whatever he wants help him self learn better than you, it's not like he is paying someone to teach him

>>7044904
Money changes everything, not that hard to understand.

>>7044916
I don't know about that, I'm poor despite growing spoiled with above average parents

>>7044924
Okay? Pewdie is wealthy though so obviously he doesn't have to care about money anymore and that's an advantage.
Anyone that doesn't get that money equals better opportunities is honestly retarded.

>>7044936
better opportunity to what, in this case? scribble in a 2 dollar notebook from free references you found online, for an hour??

>>7044936
Yeah, but how does better opportunities equate to better learning a hobby alone? I'd understand if he was paying a good artist to teach him, but I don't think he is doing that, at most he got family and friends supporting which you can have independent of your monetary situation

>>7044941
>>7044942
>Yeah, but how does better opportunities equate to better learning a hobby alone?
Are you guys honestly just slow or what? You're seriously asking why being rich gives you better opportunities? You know that Rocky movie and he's out in the woods and the blonde aryan guy is using russian steroids and shit? Well in real life the russian would win that, easily. Rocky would lose.
Real life isn't a movie montage.

>>7039468
First of all, he draw before (digital), second, if you have 8 digits in your bank account you can learn almost everything, because you have FREE time, something average joe doesn't have because
>work, commute, making food, groceries, cleaning etc
Retards don't understand, rich people can buy time, they don't need to clean their own house, they have a cleaning lady, they don't need to make their own food, they can order or even have a own chef
so miss me with that bullshit, they said you need at least 10000 hours to master something, so if you're an average joe and only make X thing for 2 hours per day (12 hours in weekend), that's like 22 hours per weeks, let's say 100 per month, 1200 in a year, you need almost a decade

>>7044964
What is the 'roids of drawing that pewdiepie is using? Is it drawing 1h a day?

>>7044964
you need context if you want to say stupid shit like this. you see some goober drawing anime heads and it gives you this monumental existential crisis? it's fucking drawing, you will never get around the fact that you just need paper and pencil and an hour a day. a millionaire living in japan and a brazilian orphan are using the same fucking tools. you're trying to spin this way out of proportion with improper context to justify the most important part: you don't fucking draw.

>>7044968
Isn't the average adult spending around 4-5 hours on a phone daily in America?

>>7044972
Poor people can't even afford paper and pens you're fucking retarded, you know how many of them don't even have toilets? "Yeah bruh it's all the same, we all have the same 24 hours" lmao
Hell poor people make youtube as well, maybe watch it sometime instead of just watching wealthy youtubers

>>7044976
How do you even manage to do that? I can barely push for 1hour on mobile device daily even with my adhd on it's extreme days.
Not that I want, I waste time this way, it's just that I physically cannot even if my brain wants to.

>>7044977
it always fucking goes like this with you people. the bar is on the floor but you have to invent one of the most extreme situations that could ever occur to justify your shit attitude "bro people can't afford PENS are you fr rn???" and justify not drawing. you think anyone takes that seriously? do you take yourself seriously? this fabricated idea of someone existing in some "poverty purgatory" where they can't get a piece of paper and writing implement? what fucking ever dude just go keep not drawing nobody gives a fuck you coping retard.

>>7044987
I'm just taking what you're saying and you're saying I'm coming up with excuses or somehow attacking pewdiepie which I never did.
It's just tedious to hear a bunch of zoomers say money doesn't matter or what country you're born in doesn't matter when obviously it does. If pewdiepie was ugly he wouldn't have 111 million followers, man. Get real.

>>7044991
fuck off retard, you're adding in context to something that doesn't need it so you can justify not drawing. stay on fucking topic, and the topic is drawing. you wanna make some retarded grandiose excuse and add a bunch of fictional shit to a strawman on some "bro ofc i'm not drawing there's no ROOF over my head" ass shit because you're a lazy bitch.

>>7044977
Uh, they can afford equipment for youtube but not paper and pen?

>>7044997
I don't get why ya'll so upset rich people can afford whatever they want, it's not opinion, it's fact.

>>7044999
Nowadays? Yeah. They even buy expensive samsung or apple phones with payment plans, basically because they're status symbols. It's crazy.

>>7045008
money or no money is not a factor in art or in the gym but talentless fat retards need to mainline copium or they'll die

>>7045008
Sure it allows you to afford a lot but how does it affects pewds learning how to draw by himself in

>>7045015
affect*

>>7045013
Hey I go to the gym but I would have made way more progress if I was rich enough to buy a home gym and nice meat daily, just the way life goes.

>>7045015
He already explained it >>7044968

>>7045018
Pewds is drawing 1 hour a day, people spend a lot of time online, the average joe does have the time. Unless they got a really demanding job that takes the entire day, is tiring and leave you free time to just eat, shit and sleep but those aren't average joes

>believing you need 10k hours to finally be able to draw something you're happy with

>rich

>>7045051
Embrace living like a npc

>>7044942
are you two genuinely retarded? It has been explained already itt, just scroll up.

>>7045062
Do you need to be a millionaire to draw on a paper?

It's anime, they're all the same face
Literally tge majority of animes differentiate girls by color only

>>7045051
idk how normies cope and still start famililes and shit, this swedish aryan chad had the perfect life. i just want to hide

Only Asians can draw anime from memory.

I’m still horrified of imitating the Pokemon season 1 style only for it to look like Andrew Dobson’s art. I want to kms if that’s the best I can do. I hate Dobson so much from how much of my own incompetence reminds myself of his disgusting art style

>Japanese thing good
Southern Euros have been drawing better for centuries

>generate AI image using img2img from pewdiepie's drawing, claim you found it
>doesn't even match that well
why bother?

>>7046308
it's not likely to be img2img because colors are different. controlnet? maybe. doesn't even matter imo

>>7044818
>>7044810
Yeah i knew a lot of people were going to get butthurt over him. i did too because im unemployed and could be drawing all day and i dont. but he sat down for at most 1-2 hours and made progress. theyre upset theyve been at it and not making any.

>>7046020
Doesn’t matter whose better on a technical level.
They could never match the style and sovl. This kind of appeal is something you have to be born with

It took me 3 years to kind of understand how anime hair worked, I want to kill myself now

>>7047442
They began to draw like this after the influence of America, their art was crap below the European level. Also, many can draw in their style, it’s just easier for company owners to promote cal art crap

>pewdiepie
>old man

Nobody outside Asia who isn’t Spaniah has ever been able to draw exactly like Yoh Yoshinari. His Asian genetic gifts carried his career that’s lightning in a bottle. He’s a plagiarist yet still made it for his talent.
White people like me who want his style are fucked
