Sinix

[Anonymous No.3203024]

How does /ic feel about Sinix's Paintsploration series? I think its pretty neat and makes me want to paint.

[Anonymous No.3203038]

>>3203024
It's pretty fun to watch
I can't stand his voice so the lack of talking is another plus

[Anonymous No.3203039]

i hope sinix commits suicide

[Anonymous No.3203048]

He is ok, but I would be hesistant to take his advice as gospel. He is not a great artist by any means.

[Anonymous No.3203092]

>>3203048
I agree. I mostly use him as a resource to learn about other artists. He has videos with a lot of cool recommendations.

[Anonymous No.3203098]

He doesn't have to speak in order for you to sense him uptalking. The series is not called Paintsploration, it's called "PAINTSPLORATION?!", that triggers the fuck out of me. Walking pile of estrogen, how I hate his feminine speech pattern.

Too bad I have to keep watching for the little bits of insight here and there.

[Anonymous No.3203228]

>>3203024
I like the philosophy of it, it's fun to watch and it's some good fuel to get started on drawing something.

>>3203048
I disagree, he's pretty fucking good imo. Especially when he's not just fucking around and actually attempting to produce something.
By the way, is /ic/ starting to dislike Sinix now? when did that happen? was there a spike on his subs or something?

[Anonymous No.3203292]

How old is sinix, his hands are all wrinkly and see through and covered in liver spots

[Anonymous No.3203294]

>>3203148
Yeah, and his constant vocal fry really annoys me

He's has the voice of a 12 year old and the body of a decaying old man.

hi sinix

Sinix is one of those artists that I can learn from just from watching him draw, something about the way he does things just makes things click in my head.

/ic/ hates everyone that is clearly better than 99% of the posters here but isn't so good as to be untouchable. He falls right into that category.

[Anonymous No.3205216]

>>3205165
Where did he say that?

[Anonymous No.3205220]

>>3205216
Probably on one of his streams.
And he's right.

Not really t b h. Why would people come to a dedicated art forum so often if they don't care about art at all? Why do so many people on here dream of "gitting gud" and "making it" if they don't care about art? Why draw for hours every day? I'm a fan of the dude but he's way off base here.

[Anonymous No.3205229]

>b-but we're seriously trying
post you're art.
There's 2 small portions of /ic/ who care about getting better.
beginners who haven't given up yet. and people who are busy drawing and basically just come here to ask for critiques periodically.
if you're posting in a thread like this, you're either a beginner who hasn't give up yet, or you're just here to gossip.
post your art so we can find out which.

Trying to compartmentalize the entirety of /ic/'s population into two arbitrary categories of your own choosing only serves to highlight your malicious and hostile intentions. Be gone crab.

Technically I gave 3 categories.
But you didn't post your art you're just here for gossiping and shitposting.

Only you could fit an elephant sized straw man up your ass and spit it out your mouth. I just said I disagreed with him, you're the one sperging out and talking about how you know everything about everyone who posts here. Autist.

Well played. But nah, I'm not really mad or anything. Just fucking around on /ic/ for a little bit. Have a good one little buddy.

Hes streaming right now. I dont like his voice. But I became a fan when he was doing a sketchbook video with someone else and started shit talking the guy for his anime drawing phase.

He himself had an anime drawing phase too, as seen on his sketchbook tours, most people who started drawing in the 2000s do.

[Anonymous No.3205409]

>>3205335
Oh definitely. You still see it in some of his characters. I just liked the way he encourages people to get away from that.

[Anonymous No.3205424]

>>3205409
"Encourage people to get away from it" You should draw whatever the FUCK you feel like drawing. You shouldn't change your style because some wrinkly pretentious cuck has a western superiority complex.

[Anonymous No.3205437]

>>3205424
He just joking. Someone really likes his unfunny jokes about amime. When he tries to "meme" his drawings looks like some cheap western parody. He only recently start following real Japanese artists. I more shocked that he follows picrelated.

[Anonymous No.3205461]

>>3205424
As someone who wants to be good at drawing animu, I'm of the belief that I have to get good at the other stuff first. The stylization is the ultimate goal you work towards, something you do on the side while grindin' the rest. If encouraging people away from anime gets them to Loomis, then I'd say that's a good outcome, because the real problem is when you ONLY draw anime. You gotta step aside, learn how to draw, and you can go back to it later.

Also I wouldn't say Sinix is a pretentious cuck with western superiority complex, seeing as he recently spent a good amount of time, months I think, dedicating videos covering his attempt at getting an anime style, not as a joke but as a legit excercise to make good looking japanese shit.

[Anonymous No.3205843]

>>3205437
Good shapes, nice sense of form, good gesture...
Aside from the generic animu face, I don't see a problem.

>>3205461
I thought the same and grinded loomis etc for 3 years, now I have better fundies than my teacher irl but honestly I wish I had drawn animu alongside. I'm dry and empty, afraid to push and exaggerate and I care about the drawing being "correct", when design and appeal beats correctness at the end of the day 100% of the time.

Study. Draw what you like. If you feel like you're leaning a lot towards one side, you're going the wrong way.

And how non generic anime face looks like?

[Anonymous No.3205853]

>>3205852

"generic" as an insult is a /ic/ meme. You actually need strong fundamentals to create something good enough to be passed off as generic in the first place.

[Anonymous No.3206133]

>>3205852
Like a drawing whose author studied the actual head structure the style is based upon and shows awareness of form rather than slap some symbol drawn features onto a flat plane.

That pic is not all bad, but it's still closer to the second example.

He's a cool dude and I've learned a ton from him and I still feel like I could learn more. I don't really wanna do similar work but he's a master at what he does and he's pretty entertaining so yeah. Cool guy. Not my favorite artist but super talented and fun.

[Anonymous No.3206493]

He's actually one of my favorite artists but only when I get to see the process of him drawing and painting (i.e. watch his videos). I realized this when I looked up his work to post in an inspo thread and couldn't find a single piece that I liked. His 'finished' stuff doesn't really do anything for me but watching him draw is always really inspiring and his sketches are fun to look at.

You could probably get a somewhat similar albeit different effect with a bristly mixture brush. Look up one of Ahmed Aldoori's digital painting videos to see what it looks like/how to do it, he uses it quite a bit.
