i'm dead serious, btw.
What's your ideal order for materials/general rendering method? Pic related is mine.
>>2310031
You use the material you need for the desired effect.
Only amateurs let their material dictate their flow.

>rendering traditionally

How do i into digital drawing /ic/?
Ive never worked with drawing tablets and such, only pen and pencil. What do i need to know? What kind of tablet should i buy?
>>2304089
Buy an intuos medium or whatever size you like.
To get used to it, do a bunch of mindless life drawing. Remove any extra distracting factors from the learning eqiluation.
Dont get fancy with the brushes either. Straight roundbrush or the real chalk brush.
Draw or sketch very basic scenes withe the most basic tools so that your brain can catch the differences between traditional and digital and adjust.
If you cant already draw from life easily, just get a sketchbook and do that first because...

Draw your pc.
I cant comprehence the outlined text.
What the hell does he mean by this?
Aww cmon.
Halp.

I also have no idea what he's trying to say. Is there no video of that? In any case, go learn from videos instead. It's much easier to understand because you see the teacher actually doing it.
Thoughts?
We already had a thread about how much we hate this

I can't stop myself from just be amazed how different each of the students are.
All the guys teaching are bros but there are better options.
I wanted to draw a space scene, but I think I'll have problems with the way light works in a zero atmosphere environment. From my knowledge, all the rules of making distant things seem distant are due to light being scattered by the air, ex. lower contrast, desaturation, misty appearance. If I wanted to create an image of a ship in outerspace, would there literally be zero bounce light (except off the ship itself) making shadows pitch black?
Would a space scene even be visually appealing? I feel like you wouldn't even be able to see what the fuck is going on.
>>2312163
If there is no atmosphere you won't get atmospheric perspective, no. Very distant objects will still be slightly darker since the amount of light bouncing off them is spread thinner the farther you are from it, so less light will reach you. Shadows will not have any ambient sky light filling them, but may have some bounce light from the ground or other objects that fill them slightly--see the image you attached where the cast shadows on the ground are black or near black, but the shadow on the legs of the space...

It's weird to think that there are only a handful of people who have seen the moon with their own eyes. Since a camera can make the lighting look slightly different and whatever.
>tfw you'll never be able to draw lunar landscapes while actually being on the moon
But anyways, just make your space art look cool, no one really cares if it's scientifically accurate unless maybe you're illustrating for some science magazine or something. Which I dout you are

You'd fucking see bright assed stars but don't ask NASA why there are no fucking stars because they're not going to say "set and we couldn't fake star positions exactly because the math is too hard"
Hi /ic/.
I'm drawing and painting basically my whole life and I'm pretty good at it. Anyway, I noticed that I fuck a lot of my paintings up because my drawings have absolute shit tier proportion. It's easier for me to keep proportions straight when I'm drawing on a very small space, but when the space gets larger (even DIN A4 is difficult when I'm actually trying to fill it), I just fuck things up. Now, my usual approach would be to try harder, but I'm 100% self taught, so I guess there may be more systematic approaches out there that I'm...

draw the whole loosely, look at it from afar, correct the proportions.
>>2311744
>look at it from afar
This. Use the navigator window in photoshop, or if you work traditionally step back and view it across the room.

Heh.
As for your more systematic approaches: read sticky.

>too cheap to pay even $1 for someone's hard work
It's pieces of shit like you guys that deter many artists from making a decent living. Ironically, your cheapness also fucks over yourselves.

john pls
I'm thinking about buying this set since it has ink pens AND a pencil. Are there any other sets that are better or similar? Any with markers?
>>2309776
>buying anything descibed as "manga"
>>2309776
>brush pen included
I wonder about it's quality - your kit is only 1$ more expensive than Pentel Arts Pocket Brush Pen (which is recommended by Robertson)
>>2309776
those "pens" are often just thin tip markers, your better off buying a really nice fountain pen like most mangakas use. If you don't want to smudge the ink try using a a cloth clove with the fingers (besides the pink) cut out.

Wouldn't your picture been more convincing to your case if that piece had been in color?
this has a little more color

Concerning my figure studies, while they may not always be accurate, they're almost always not accurate in the same way. The drawing is larger than the reference, and it's rotated off-center. Is there a way to go about fixing these two specific issues?
>>2305463
Oh yeah and this was drawn after I ctrl+T'd it. Should've mentioned that earlier

None of these links work. Well done.

Replace the ! with .
Wasn't sure the policy for links on this board so I tried to play it safe.

Just make a jpg with the two images side-by-side so we don't need to go to links and change them and stuff only to be assaulted with japanese and not able to see the image in question.
