/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I'm a hikkikomori neet with no propects for the future or plan of attack. I draw every day, but an art career drifts further and further away from me. I think I will be kicked out and become homeless soon. Yet, all I can bring myself to do is refresh /ic/ 3000 times a day. What is wrong with me?

Learn how to cook. That will keep the house you are in happy, plus save them money/time. You can still be useful in the house hold. Fuck, even just keeping the house clean without being asked will make people happy. Be of use so they dont kick you out and continue the art grind.

your heart is too pure

we're all digital souls trapped in a digital world.

art for money will be dead or overran by faggots like this in 5 years since no one cares about exploitation until it happens to them. pick up a trade that you can still freelance.

oh fug

oh fuck...

I'm deleting that picture.

Is this some artist who is feeding his line drawings into stable diffusion? I had no idea AI could do perspective scenes with storytelling poses like this already

>>7165331
I could've sworn I've see that drawing on pinterest like years before the ai craze though

>>7165368
Not sure if it's the same guy you're thinking of but yes he feeds drawings into AI. To his credit he's one of the few people doing actually interesting things with AI though. Has a lot of good images.

I often imagine the characters I'm drawing sitting next to me to motivate me to draw. Like they're watching me and commenting as they would in-universe.
I always work better when there's someone next to me...

Vile faggot.

>I always work better when there's someone next to me
for me it's the opposite
i hate being watched while i draw so much that i leave the room if someone tries to sit next to me/watch what i'm drawing

I'm an ex-proompter. Keeping up with models, updating the software, messing with "nodes" and praying it makes the image 2% better, re-tagging datasets every time the most popular model changes, it all begs the question why not just draw. If AI art hadn't happened I'd probably still be playing video games until my wrists creaked
I did a xerox of my waifu and I already like it more than the slop because it's 100% on-model

>5 hour igor
literally me
fwiw my "studies" are going from days of on and off penciling to just one evening

>>7166069
very nice, anon. People get too intimidated by drawing, but once you find an effective learning method, not only does your art improve rapidly, you find joy in the actual process of studying.

>>7165208
i never study irl subjects, its always 3d models. I wish i could go to live drawing sessions but there's no such thing in my 3rd world shithole country :/

I don't like looking people in the eyes so I suck at drawing faces and even more so eyes

>>7165208
>your embarassing art secrets
I post on /ic/

>>7165208
instead of talking and expressing my emotional problems to friends and family (aka real people, like normal people do), I express and process them through creating fictional characters and their stories (which are based on me and my experiences).
I'm too much of a pussy to open up to real people, which is why I do it through art instead. I tried therapy in the past but that shit is so whack and didn't help at all, I just break down crying and feel even worse afterward.

>>7165208
I fucking hate drawing digitally, digital lines feel so shit compared to trad and I only do them because I hate them so much and want to be great at them so they’re less fucking annoying

>>7165208
Are you a faggot?

the only reason i draw is because i want to fuck my characters and no real man has ever been as awesome or manly as them so im in a fantasy relationship with them like a true schizo. this isnt all that unique though.

There's a bunch of old work of mine sitting on a booru and I can't stand how low quality it looks. It's literally years old, I've asked the booru staff to get rid of it but they haven't responded to me.
It's so fucking cringe. It's from when I was just learning how to draw digital so it's rough as hell. I regret uploading that shit their, considering that fans to just do that shit for you (I had no idea until years later)

>>7165228
same buddy let's be homeless together

>>7165228
Same except my government gives neetbux so i can keep doing this for the rest of my life.

All of my drawings are commissions just to build up fake interests.

>>7166791
this is what i assume for most commissions of fan art. who tf commissions fan art? nobody.

i ejaculate in my female colleague's water bottle that she left unattended for some time

If it's viable, hiring prostitutes and strippers could be an option.
