If I find this man and eat his heart, will I be able to steal his amazing drawing powers?

No, but if you work as hard as he did to reach that level you can.

How many hours did you spend drawing today?
>>124486411
I spent all morning eyeing my tablet with longing and regret while I shitposted on 4chan and procrastinated on stuff.
>>124485982
I know what you mean, man.
Only thing you should always keep in mind is "keep pushing". You're rusty now, you're rusty first 30minutes/hour/two, but eventually you'll feel that drawing satisfies you and that what you've drawn actually looks pretty decent. So, keep pushing.
>>124485466
It doesn't work like that. First, you must fall in love with eros and female body like never before. Then you work something out from there. Passion will drive you.
Oh, the stuff he says on his streams. "Ah, I'm so tired of that action, I want to draw an ero scene! I was born to draw ero scenes!"
>>124486554
I spent half a year(if not more) eyeing my tablet with longing etc.
The more time I spend not drawing, the harder it is to come back. It's a nightmare.

There is this wonderful invention called eraser.

>>124486757
Yeah I've heard, photoshop has that too but it's so imprecise IRL.
When live drawing videos are inspiring and not depressing I'm still in the winning camp.
This guy isn't even that good.
I'll give you a guide on how to draw like that.
Step 1: lrn 2 draw cute anime facerino.
Step 2: find reference
Step 3: draw what you see, replace 3D head with 2D head
That's it.

>needing to erase
only losers need to erase.
>>124486932
In case of manga you would waste more time searching reference material for every panel than drawing. And it's still would be shit.
>>124486932
I bet you think Rustle traces floors, too.
I'm almost there in reaching the style for anime\manga in 3d, i'm mostly specialized in realistic non cell-shaded stuff.
But i guess i will reach almost perfect level with times.

I read Kakukaku Shikajika yesterday. I recommend it to everyone struggling with finding motivation for drawing.
You'll either find some motivation, or kill yourself.
>>124486932
This is what I do, to an extent.
>>124487240
Nothing better to save myself from procrastination than some more procrastination.
>>124487144
He's talking out of his ass because it's obvious this particular mangaka doesn't trace/rely on reference material for his characters too much.
But... a TON of other mangaka do. 3D models or photos, but a lot of them use reference. It's still faster than constructing everything.
And for backgrounds, using reference photos is the default.
>>124487544
Still more productive than browsing /a/ all day everyday.
>>124487785
True. And it looks pretty good so far. Maybe it will really help.
I've always been shit at drawing, but lately I've been thinking more and more about it. I'm also really uncreative, I can't come up with any original idea. Is there like a blog somewhere or something that I can follow to get an idea on how to get into drawing? I don't really have anything else to fill my time with except learning Japanese so it'd be nice to try something new.
>>124487927
We have a board for this you know
>>124486411
~4 hours.
Most of it was spent practicing penises.
I finally thing they look okay.
I should put this on my resume.
>Other skills
>I draw nice penises please hire me
>also can you give me and advance my tablets broken and I drew these penises with a mouse
>yes I am aware of the autism needed to draw with a mouse
>>124487640
>not using doll to make any pose you want for reference
>>124488433
The mouse is not a bad tool to draw once you get used to it.
>>124488520
My Rei-clone moved out a few months ago when I forgot to feed her for a week.
>>124488528
It feels unnatural though. And you get cramps after a few hours. I really do like the feel of a pencil or a stylus more.
>>124488433
I like you.
I wish the plot was as good as his art.
>>124488433
That's pretty amazing, onii-chan.
>>124488528
It's still worse than pen. And tablets without screen still worse than tables with it.
>>124488753
Keep your frogshit out of here.
Tsugemomo is good art with utter dogshit story.
I'm glad I have absolutely no drawing ability because if I did I'd probably spend all day every day drawing lewd qt girls feet.

One one hand, I've gotten very good with getting it right the first time on paper. Started with pencils anyways,

>>124485466
I wish it'd be that simple.
>>124489356
So do I, but I wouldn't eat his heart no matter how bad I wanted it.
I wouldn't deprive the world of Tsugumomo.
>>124489389
>>I wouldn't deprive the world of Tsugumomo.
But you wouldn't. That's the premise of the OP.
>>124489437
Pretty sure people die when their hearts are forcibly taken out of their bodies and eaten.
>Haven't drawn anything since august last year
>Haven't drawn anything I liked since April last year
>>124489469
So?
If everything about Tsugumomo lives on within you, then you haven't taken anything away from the world.
Think, lass.
>>124489137
And yet it's shit.
>>124489526
>>124489570
>everything about Tsugumomo lives on within you
OP clearly says his "drawing powers". Even if you steal his joke-telling and storytelling powers along with that, you could never write and pen the Tsugumomo he'd have written.
>>124489638
>drawing skills are stored in the heart
>but for some reason nothing else isn't
That seems like an awfully arbitrary, weird and convenient rule.
It's more likely that if your skills are stored somewhere in your body to be passed on upon consumption, it's an all or nothing deal.
>Tsugumomo artist
That guy is a fucking monster.
I fap with every single chapter.
>>124489740
You're missing the point. Even if you steal all his skills, you can't write the Tsugumomo he would have, because you're not him. You don't have his knowledge or experiences or imagination, just raw skills.
NEW TSUGUMOMO CHAPTER WHEN?
>>124485982
Just practice more man, you can't be perfect every time.
>>124489808
Imagination is a skill.
Knowledge is arguably also a skill.
Experience is just practical knowledge.
>>124488520
Damn, i was going to buy one but not sure if it will really help.
>>124489904
It's better to have a little sister who's so impressed with your drawing prowess that she's proud to assist you as a model.
>>124489898
Imagination can be argued to be a skill. Knowledge is collected information relying on memories. You don't have his memories, or experiences, or personality. You can only create a fanfiction tsugumomo, even if it's a good one.
>>124490010
>Knowledge is collected information relying on memories.
Drawing skill is motoric memory and technique aka knowledge.
>>124490078
You're stretching OP's post far beyond the breaking point. The only way you could write Tsugumomo is if you literally became him and forgot who you were. Even if you somehow absorbed his memories and experiences, your own memories and experiences would still color and change the work.
>>124489809
"New" like "new" or like "any chapter"?
>>124490178
It's not my fault OP's scenario is unrealistic. Do you see me agreeing with his idea?
>>124485532
What he said
>>124485982
>Paper doesn't have ctrl+z
I can't deal with this anymore.
>>124486571
I don't remember him saying anything other than wanting to draw ero. This is clearly his vocation.
>Be art school junior
>Pretty good at life drawing
>Cant draw anime girls for shit
I should just drop out.
>>124490341
The OP never implied you could write Tsugumomo in his stead. Only you did.
>tfw can't stick with any hobby for more than a month
I'm shitty at a bunch of stuff and good at absolutely nothing. Sometimes I want to pick up drawing again but then I masturbate and lose interest.
>>124490392
OP didn't think through what he wrote.
When somebody writes a story with FTL travel, and causality doesn't suffer from it, you can rest assured that he's disregarding the rule of relativity.
Certain things simply follow logically.
>>124490389
Isn't that how it's supposed to be for "real" artists?
>>124486932
You're forgetting the step where you sell your uninspiring art with patreon.
>>124490378
>I can't deal with this anymore.
Yep. One single mistake while you filling the blank and you have to make everything all over again. Not to mention paper instantly becoming useless trash. Fucking hell. Electronic paper when?
>>124490499
But OP didn't disregard shit, you're the one who's saying you'd be able to replace the artist and produce the exact Tsugumomo he'd have writen and, as I've pointed out, this is patently impossible no matter which way you decide to stretch you interpretation of the OP's situation.
>>124490556
You're forgetting the step where this gets you half a million dollars a year.
>>124490556
Don't forget to invent "harassment" either. That's essential!
>>124490292
yes
>>124490611
>But OP didn't disregard shit,
Apparently you already forgot the beginning of our conversation.
Do you want us to go through all of that again or will you just scroll up and read it?
hes had " the gift " for a while now
>>124490672
I said I wouldn't deprive the world of Tsugumomo in exchange for drawing skills.
You argued one could replace the author if one absorbed his skills.
I explained this is not possible, because while you COULD make a convincing replacement for Tsugumomo, it would never be the Tsugumomo the original author would have made, regardless of how you chose to interpret OP's situation.
Straightforward enough.
keep drawing
Do you like his setup?
>>124490753
>convincing replacement
If it's convincing, then what are you missing?

>>124490539
Maybe, I feel like I'm at the skill level where I should be able to draw 2D no problem but they always look like shit.

>>124490816
Not everybody lives in earthquake country.
I've never experienced the ground shaking in my 30 years.
>>124490805
The real, original work. Your story would never be what he'd have done, you'd be depriving the world of the real Tsugumomo and replacing it with your perfectly drawn fanfiction.
>>124490638
Okay.
>>124490852
Yeah but that guy is in Japan.
>>124490816
But look how secure it is.
>>124485466
One day I'll be able to draw cute loli girls like him...
>>124490861
>The real, original work.
Buzzwords.
It's like saying your mother is no longer your mother because she aged since she gave birth to you and the change has removed her from the original state of your mother.
>>124490942

what mysteries do those folders hold ?!
>>124490838
Life drawing and illustration are pretty distinct disciplines, you won't get good at drawing what you imagine by just drawing what you see... though it helps. There's a lot more needed.
Well, unless you want to compose everything in your pictures out of reference photos, that's a way too.
>>124491125
You're confusing what we're talking about. It's the result, not the person. Just because the simile speaks of a person doesn't mean that it's referring to the person in the original scenario because we weren't even discussing him. We were only talking about his work.
>>124491207
No clue but they look so organized. Reference maybe?
>>124491331
lewd ones ?
>>124491260
>It's the result, not the person
Then don't come up with terrible analogies. If you murdered Akira Toriyama and replaced Dragon Ball's second half with "dragonball multiverse", you would have deprived the world of dragonball's second half and instead given it your own fanfiction. Assuming you could even trick the world that your work is toriyama's, that would be a logistical nightmare.
>>124491207
Love letter to grills that, in the end, turned him down.
>>124491388
>Then don't come up with terrible analogies.
It's not terrible at all. You are just refusing to acknowledge it.
>replaced Dragon Ball's second half with "dragonball multiverse"
See? You're just bullshitting your way through this.
The existence of bad fanfiction does not mean that a person of the same skill as the original author (which, as I explained, is not limited to just his drawing skill) could not produce stuff of the same quality as the original material.
>>124491426

>>124490791

>mfw there's only 6 pages left but I can't get back into working tempo
>>124491737
>>124491539
>It's not terrible at all.
It is. The mother is a poor choice because it's a producer and not a product, you're literally turning the situation on it's head. And even then it doesn't work.
>that a person of the same skill as the original author could not produce stuff of the same quality as the original material.
This is irrelevant. Even if you had the skill to produce work of the same quality as Toriyama's (like that's such a high bar), by murdering him and stealing his abilities, you'd be depriving the world of the manga he WOULD HAVE WRITTEN, because even if you take everything about him, you would still not be him, and as a result would make something different.
So even if you could perfectly emulate Tsugumomo's art and writing style, you could never write the Tsugumomo the artist is going to. Just a good quality fanfiction..
>>124488433
There's an idea for a doujin setup:
>Senpai, I need practice drawing penises. Let me use yours!
>>124491823
How come the date is the only blurry part?
Is being artistic something people are born with or can one completely work their way up to it?
My stick figures look like shit if that puts anything into perspective.
>>124491866
Like any skill ever, you have to train it. Anyone can train it into an impressive ability, but some can do it easier and can reach greater heights than others.
>>124491863

Talent + Hard work > Hard Work > Talent
>>124491840
>The mother is a poor choice because it's a producer and not a product, you're literally turning the situation on it's head.
Since you are directly experiencing your mother, but only directly experiencing the mangaka's manga, nope, you're missing the point.
The point being that just because a person (or a story telling style) changes with time does not make them a fake. It just means they evolved, as is natural for all living things.
>you'd be depriving the world of the manga he WOULD HAVE WRITTEN,
By the same logic you can accuse every single editor he ever had and his parents and everybody close to him (and basically everybody) for depriving the world of manga he "WOULD HAVE WRITTEN". So?
You got *a* story by him. You can't get them all.

>>124492096
I came to this board escape that
>>124492106
Keep the drawings you make every time. You're probably improving every time you repeat this process, but because your sense is improving faster than your skills and you have no direct frame of reference, you think you're not.
At least that's what happened to me in the exact same situation.
>>124492063
>The point being that just because a person (or a story telling style) changes with time does not make them a fake
But if the person making the story is not the same, then yeah, it's fake.
>>124492063
>You got *a* story by him.
Which yours won't be, because you're a radically different person even if you absorb all his abilities, memories and experiences.
>>124492096
/ic/ pls no bully
>>124492217
>it's fake.
A "convincing" fake, as you said yourself.
So, what is the difference?
>>124492210
>Keep the drawings you make every time
I do, and I know I'm improving. I'm just really disappointed with myself because (not to toot my own horn) I'm letting this obvious blessing of mine stagnate.
>>124492260
The same there is between good fanfiction and the original work.
>>124492322
So, none.
Then what are you complaining about?
>>124492346
That a good man and the original work would be lost to gain my fanfiction writing powers. It is not a sacrifice I would make.
>>124492126
>>124492412
If James Stokoe can draw like he does, you probably can too no matter how fucked up your hand is.
>>124492403
>That a good man and the original work would be lost to gain my fanfiction writing powers
-good man - manga + manga + skill = - good man + skill
You're trading a man for the possession of his skill.
Since he basically is his skill (and his personality, it's basically
= - somebody else's personality + personal ability boost

Wrong, it's:

Not to mention you'd likely just draw porn for yourself instead of trying to finish Tsugumomo, and you'd be dissatisfied because fapping to your own porn is weird and uncomfortable (just like, I imagine, reading your own manga).
>>124492664
>-mangaA + manga B
It's quantum manga. So long as they don't exist both his and your manga have the potential to be either A or B and the superposition only collapses once you actually draw it. So no, A and B does not come into the equation.

>>124492799
There's nothing quantum about it. You're replacing a man with another that has his skills. Yours would never be his, because you're a fundamentally different person and this would affect your creation to be fundamentally different from his.
You'd deprive the world of his manga, you'd deprive yourself of his manga, and you'd murder a good man in exchange for skills that, while impressive, aren't impossible to achieve.
Not a good deal.

I think you're trying to assign objective quality to one artist over another simply because he's using an artstyle you enjoy more.

They don't do things for you, though. You still have to be able to draw well to be able to draw digitally well.
>>124494127
Yes, they're more convenient. So what? The artist in >>124492619 is superb, but it's not because he draws on paper and pen markers.
>>124494236
You missing the point.
>>124494317
The point is that drawing digitally is not a demerit and drawing on paper and pen is not a badge of honor. They're different mediums and instruments but the skill required to be great at either is great.
And the Tsugumomo guy can draw on pen and paper just as well, even if he's clearly more used to the tablet at this point.

Also, if you don't want to hear critics, only praise, then you better go somewhere else.

I dub thee Reverse Pinball Flippers-tan.

And this was beside the point.

Damn this guy is fast.
>>124491036
>At least he can draw feet.
And he doesn't have that fucking retarded nose style
>>124485466
anyone know what program he's using ? hard for me to tell

>lewd guilty
Stop thinking in american and problem solved.
>>124485982
Wait are you for real. Nigga I've only ever draw with pencil and pad.
>>124497923
Can you guess?
>>124497022
That looks good.
>>124497022
Needs a cup upgrade.
>>124498445
I can do okay on just pad but when I'm rusty it's like I've never drawn in my life and I still can't draw a decent circle to save my life.
>>124489137
What's up with the arm
Made we want to draw micro bikinis.
In 20ish years I might be at his level.
>>124498998
Keep with it fam. Don't let laziness take away your talent
>>124486411
this was the last thing i drew two days ago or something,i need to get back to drawing every day though.
>>124499793
What I really need is to start drawing dozens of little sketches to work on my speed, but I can't I start one picture and spend half an hour or several on it, then I'm bored and stop.
>>124491823
Where do I get a glove like that.
I'm so sick of smudging my keyboard and touchscreen devices.

Mah nigga!

Just buy some cheap gloves and cut off fingertips.
>>124500344
>>124500372
I was thinking more full finger coverage but ones that won't scratch screens, I don't really draw.
>>124485466
Just practice. Drawing is one of the easier hobbies to pick up, and probably the cheapest starting. Like everything you do, you're only gonna get good if you enjoy it and put work into it.
Now, photography, which is what I'm into, really is the rich boys' club. Takes me a lot of saving to buy lens, cameras, driving to places, keeping track of weather, lighting, etc. I should get a cheaper hobby.
>>124489973
I know where this is going...
>>124500415
Silk gloves then.
The only complaint I have about Yoshikadu is that his line quality is atrocious. Fucking chicken scratches nonstop.
>>124500207
u know it anon, here's another one
>Watching him stream himself drawing a double page spread for Tsugumomo
>He's trying to get the curve on the blade of a Katana correct
>He pulls out an ACTUAL FUCKING KATANA and traces along the edge
I wonder what the thought process is when you decide to include a fucking sword in your drawing supplies?
>>124485466
Just practice, anon.
I'm not really good at drawing but at least i could feel the difference between the drawings that i've done when i first starting 2 years ago.
At least spare 30 minutes to 1 hour of your time a day only for drawing.
>>124500650
You kiddin?
>>124500941
He's always been kind of a nut with how he draws.
It's great though.
Even though I try to draw every day I feel like I've backslide in artistic ability. Things I drew years ago look better to me than stuff I did a week ago.
Nothing has made me feel as defeated as this realization.
>>124489137
I love it
>>124500941
references bro
>>124485532
indeed bro, and I'm loving the fuck out of it
>>124499994
I think you have to come to a midterm timewise. maybe adapt your drawing to the amount of time you like spending on a drawing. This >>124499793
drawing was simple and took me about 3 hours with lots of pauses in between This one was probably faster >>124500812 but I've spent more than a day on a drawing before.
Usually it requires me to be pretty much obsessed in finishing it.
>>124500941
How about the part where he bought a miko outfit and did fanservice poses in them for reference?
>>124500954
Look at the individual lines. They're jagged as fuck because he scratches them out rather than drawing them in a single stroke. That's the sort of thing you get flogged for in an art school.
>>124501333
Finished drawing still looks solid so there's no problem with it. He did his job very well.
>>124501368
Unless you try to look closer and see how fucking bad the lines are.
Like I said, it's my only complaint with his art.
>>124501333
I guess I see what you mean anon, and while it is advantageous to fix that habit his overall quality is so high I don't think I could give less of a fuck.
>>124501451
That's pretty hot
>>124485532
No. I will never be great enough to draw like that on the fly. It takes me days to finish an equivalent piece for me. Those artists have something extra.
>>124501638
Put points on speed then, silly.
>>124501638
>Those artists have something extra.
Yeah, deadlines, bills to pay and food to buy.
20+ years of drawing and still suck
I'm not very good at drawing, I'm better than some, but not really.
Something you should really consider is learning traditional art and figure drawing before you start doing anything like manga or cartooning.
When I read a how-to manga book by an actual Japanese guy who can actually fucking draw manga, it's from a perspective that expects you to know that stuff already.
I'd say practicing really hard on drawing manga will be somewhat fruitless if you don't get the main components down (on which there are so many sources of information).
Again, I'm not very good. Most people's drawings here are miles better than what I can do. However I'll say one more thing. As with anything you want to be good at, you can't just practice, you have to want to practice.
You have to enjoy the act of getting better at something.
The artists I respect the most, and tend to enjoy the most are always improving and trying new things.
good working
>>124485532
Working hard got nothing on natural talent
>>124501442
that's not a scratched line anon, that's a textured brush he used, to give out a rougher feel . Something equivalent to using SAI's "Spread" brush
>>124501770
Natural talent has never been able to be stand on it's own without proper hard work.
Talent is usually just what people think the result of hard work looks like.
>can't draw
>just trace with pen tool from 3DPD
>>124501770
I have talent.
I never work on it, so I'm still a shitter.
>Tablet never work right if I plug it without rebooting
>this alone kill all motivation
Damn it ;_;
>>124501756
We'll all make it someday brah.
>>124501756
>>124501961
>>124501725
Yeah. They just have something I never will.
>>124501451
man i got all excited but it turned out he was a guy after all
>>124501999
>>124501961
>>124501756
In all seriousness, if you draw for that long and you're not improving very fast, you may be doing something wrong. Many artists fall into a rut always drawing the same thing in the same style and just stay stuck, for decades.
Just drawing is not enough. You have to actively try to improve by objectively looking at your shit and identifying what's bad.
>>124500372
Why would you cut up whittler's gloves?

You forgot your picture. Here.
It's clear he has a firm grasp on anatomy. Don't know why some anons feel the need to bash on Hamada-sensei.
>>124502123
If only I could see through myself to identify what is so bad.
I like to think that I could get this good if I bought a tablet and got a decent drawing program, I go out of my way to never acquire either so I don't have to face the reality.
>>124488433
You are a good man, I would hire you.
>>124502617
This is why /ic/ exists
>>124502619
You could score a decent one at 50 to 70$.
That's how I got mine at least.
You're not going to get better on a tablet if you can't draw well on paper though.
so what's the best drawing program?
>>124486932
If he's just copying from a reference why do the arm positions move around so erratically before settling on one?
