Often when I see people recording their sketchbook for videos or posting pages on Instagram, it always seems like every page is a beautiful, crisp, clean illustration. Whereas my sketchbook is a mess of just practicing, abandoned pages, and downright awful drawings.
How the hell do people manage to draw so nice and neat consistently in their sketchbooks? Should I be drawing slower and trying to make every page presentable for practice, or keep going with rough studies? I feel like none of my sketchbooks are presentable in any way.
For things like this, the "sketchbook" is often the final work, and they have secret, actual sketchbooks that are just as messy as yours.
Because there are "sketchbooks" and then theres sketchbooks.

Well said
is there anything you can do as an artist that can permanently ruin your reputation?
I mean aside from obvious shit like killing someone or raping a child.
I'm afraid I have a bit of a questionable past, that if anyone knew my real name, and was inclined, they could easily find dirt on me. I'd like to avoid that.
And if it's just impossible to avoid, how GUD do I have to be to get people to not care?

If you gain a main audience of tumblr teenagers and you say something "problematic" you will be utterly destroyed. Just get an audience of normal people.
>>2484345
Well what about hosting your art on tumblr? I mean surely there is a community on tumblr that consumes art that isn't steven universe homestuck ponies?
Can I just host my normal drawing shit there and not attract the attention of the typical tumblr community?
And what is the measure for that? I mean I've seen people get into shit for drawing characters that look "too asian" and branded racists, or draw a girl too sexy and labeled sexists.
Or even people not respecting the pronouns of housepets.
>>2484311
At least give us an idea what you are talking about when you say questionable past. Criminal record? Political activism? Drug abuse? Gay porn? No one can predict how people would react to a questionable past when that can mean pretty much anything.
What do you think? :3 I tried my best

>draw anime
Study anime just like how you would study Loomis.
i take a lot of the advices and i fix the drawing with then, another advice or tip for improve the image?
>>2488857
This is the first
>>2488857
your best off posting in either the beginner or stylization thread friend. Making your own thread soley for just one picture can be seen as rude, since it gives off the feeling of "I'm better than everyone in those threads, I need my own focus". I know that it wasn't your intention, but because of this most critiques will be needlessly blunt and violently direct. Just a word of caution.
other than that, welcome to /ic/
>>2488867
Not OP. you're a fuckin faggot. Who the fuck cares this dude made a thread of his art. Go fuck your self. This isn't your category to make rules like that you cunt. Now fuck off.
Hello /ic/
i was sent here from /co/ hoping that you guys could help me with my problem.
you see, i love comic books and cartoons and i love drawing, because i want to make comics and cartoon, but my problem is that even though i love drawing, my art is (for example) not as good as the girl who draws sonic and invader zim yaoi in my classroom.
so buy how to draw books and download pdf's. and i just can't find anything helpful, they just stress me out when they mention different types of pencils and brain hurting exercises, so i just quit and draw out of depression, and share it just so i can feel better about myself, knowing that what i've made is not something i wanted and what it is, is just cringey.
so i ask you guys.
what can i do?
what can you do to help me?

The only person you should be competing with is yourself. Be better then you were yesterday. Stay focused. As far as pencils "H" pencils are "hard lead (graphite)" for crisp lines etc. "B" pencils are "soft lead" for shading. My advice to you is find something you like to draw and draw it. Don't be afraid to change mediums. Also start learning anatomy structure. Draw a skull 100 x. Practice technique and skill but also have a fun project to keep you motivated. Also... Do no less than at the very least an hour a day on art. Otherwise your not gonna get better. Good luck.
>>2489421
Also... Draw depressing shit if your depressed. People love it.
>>2489415
the very first step is to develop a love of drawing. get yourself accustomed to drawing every day, no matter what it is. dont worry if your drawing sucks, draw to make yourself happy. once you do this, channel that love of drawing into technical skill by using resources from pdfs ect. this way you will have a more positive association with how you improve, and you'll be sure to do it consistently
Someboby can fix my draw?

If you're a very analytical person, occasionally drawing on drugs will make you improve a lot in one afternoon, I'm convinced.

Hi,
I am color blind, so I have a lot of issues matching colors in photoshop, or making natural looking color gradients.
I am trying to learn how to recolor stuff, so I would like to get an opinion on how this looks.
Does it look okay? Passable? Bad?
>>2489124
in Black & White so you can see the levels and brightness without the color information.
>>2489127
And finally, the original.
So? Am I fucked when it comes to picking natural colors?
>>2489124
OP, you should check this out: http://www.ctrlpaint.com/videos/color-constructor-pt1
The guy who created it is colorblind, it was originally to help him power through that when painting. He also has a blog where he talks about dealing with colorblindness when painting, but I lost the link.
Why is anime the greatest artform made by man, ever?
Art-wise, it's superior to western by a long-shot.
Story and everything else-wise, it panders to tards and Japs. Which there might be a connection to.
I watched the first two episodes of Braves and I realized just how much time I had wasted watching anime my life.
>>2488742
Weak bait m8
>>2488737
because it boils down stylization to a level sitting between western and realism. And because of this, a lot of people give it praise for being able to portray emotion better than western, but still have the ability to create a world where magic and fantasy are a namestake. It was just the lucky combination of just enough of two things that it became massively successful while technically efficient and clean. Best? not so sure but pretty much amazingly marketable and relevant
or something like that. this was probably bait, so nevermind. I'll just shitpost to cover up that I responded
anime a shit
Why is the follower-to-active followers gap so large? Why does it take someone having as high as 50k followers just to get a few hundred notes on Tumblr? The numbers are always so skewed, why is that.
>/ic/ - Psychology
lurking has always been a thing, not just on tumblr
there are more people browsing and reading this thread than posting for example
>>2488260
Tumblr is set up so the lazy can just like-spam everything on their dashboard. It was only recently did they re-introduce commenting again.
>hey, would you like to join in our project? we don't aim for profit, but it's passionate and fun!

Hey guys,
I am a celebrity faker and would like to spread my work by uploading it to some big celebrity fakes sits. The biggest I know of is cfake.com but I already uploaded my fakes (which honestly are pretty good and high quality since I am a graphic designer) are nevertheless mostly not getting released on their site. Only one or two of my roughly over 15 uploaded images are getting released.
So my question: do you know any other big celebrity fake sites that are less pricky than cfake.com and that would help me get my work to more people?
>>2488294
Wtf do you mean by celebrity fakes?
>>2488294
>which honestly are pretty good and high quality

Don't make me say it.
