The nub on my Huion tablet just off and disappeared. I dumped the contents of my bag and it's nowhere to be found. With the fucking 8 dollar shipping, a new set comes out to 16 bucks.Yeah, I'm a poor bitch, I don't have the money. You guys have any acceptable ideas on a cheaper alternative to jam up in there that may work?
Pic related, that's the tablet.

Does your huion have any removable parts, like for the wireless kits and other stuff? the bastards were well hidden there in my Intuos, not under whatever the piece was covering but on the actual piece itself. Try looking there.
Try looking inside the pen stand.
I heard of a kid using toothpicks...

Do any of you all have vitamin D deficiencies from not doing art outside? Apparently being an artist is a risk factor for having severe vitamin D deficiency my bud in Medical school told me.
I was suffering from depersonalization, having this horrible feeling like this life and world weren't real and just having a really negative outlook on my own life that would come or go for a year or so. Nothing was really wrong in my life, it was just a feeling, like how sometimes you might be happy for no reason.
I randomly had a physical and it turned out I had extremely...

I had a vitamin D deficiency from being a basement dweller. The witch doctor put me on an ultra high dose for a week and left me on 1000 IUs of D3 once a day. No changes in mood

Can confirm. I have clinical deppression, which has gone better after getting vitamin pills.
They said those who spend more time on the sunlight are happier. Talking about this and the general mood of sunlight i guess.
I still feel unhappy as fuck, but no longer gloomy or sad.
So, the key for a happy artist is: Take vitamins and leave your mom's basement.

And THERAPY. What the fuck is wrong?
Does anyone here had to force themselves to learn how to draw humans (or whatever you wanted to draw)? I'm more or less OK with non-live stuff (pic related), or at least I try to learn and improve the parts that I suck at. I've been doodling mechanical stuff/landscapes since I was a kid. But I can't bring myself to seriously learn anatomy to save my life. I started so many times and never went past basic skeleton anatomy, proportions and basic portraits. live stuff is so flexible and shape-shifting that it gets me all confused and nervous, so I go back to drawing...

Huh, I don't get it anon. You can't draw humans? But you can draw architectural stuff? So you can draw forms, just use that. It really shouldn't be too hard if that is your actual level skill in the pic. Just use that knowledge to abstract the human figure into simpler shapes. Start with that and as you get comfortable start adding more details etc. There are a huge number of books that explain this process. Studying anatomy so you actually understand what you are seeing will fix a lot of that as well. You will understand all that "flexible shape shifting" stuff because you'll know the muscles and bones that are creating those shifts.

That's what I'm doing at the moment. The problem is that I hate learning how to draw anatomy, but I want to draw anatomy. I had no such problem with architecture/landscape/mechanical.
Since I asked people to share their struggle stories, I guess this thread is motivational in a way, shit. Don't like being in this whiny mood, I should just suck it up and draw.
>>2596193
Hah, you're the total opposite of me.
I feel like I have an okay grasp on humans, but architecture/landscapes are beyond me.
Any good tutorials for drawing clothing? Preferably video format or book? I don't wanna sit at my PC all day.

I did this in about an hour in microsoft paint with a mouse ...so how did i do?
Shut the fuck up and get yourself a tablet.
If you don't or can't afford a tablet, then draw on paper and scan that.
If you don't or can't afford a scanner, then take picture of your paper with your phone or something.
Get lost, mousebreather.
Why you hef to be mad is only mouse
You made your own thread, so you fucked up.
Also, why waste your time drawing with a mouse? Seriously what's the point? It's just generally a shitty medium for art and lacks any sort of precision or flexibility, and you don't really gain any useful transferable muscle memory in the way you do going from pencil to tablet.

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend any good physical models for drawing? Particularly a model head and even more particularly I'm looking for one that shows the angles of the head kindof like a polygonal model that's a good size to hold in your hand and use as a reference. I've been searching on ebay and google but pick related is the best I can come up with and it's a bit expensive and not exactly what I'm looking for.
Help!

Is there a easy/good way go make leads smooth into ink or should i go digital?
If your skills were better the ink and pencil would look a lot better. There's no way to make the eye you drew look smooth or correct.
There are specialised pencils which produce blacks almost as strong as ink, but generally speaking ordinary graphite will always look light and shiny compared to ink.
I'd recommend moving to paint if you want to go beyond pencil without going digital. Modern paint is convenient enough that everything else is basically just too much trouble.
Contrary to what most people on here are likely to say, I'd also say going digital is a perfectly valid next step. Digital painting offers some opportunities to develop your skills that traditional work doesn't...
