Please refrain from making your threads if you only have a single question.
>>2575331
I'll start.
Is tracing over 3d models considered cheating? Or is it "no rules just tools"?
>>2575332
People will give you shit for it and ultimately you'll learn less, but it'll fix shitty anatomy issues at least.
It will probably make w/e you draw stiff and still slightly unrealistic though.
>>2575331
Which is a good site for face/expression references?
Google gives you shit.
a thing i made for someone a few days ago :p
some criticism and tips to make my digital art better would be gr8
>>2591767
Go to the beginner thread or go back to tumblr.
>>2591767
furfag, kys and go to hell
Cute
I am trying to find out information on this piece of art. It appears to be on animal hide. I have no knowledge of it other than what you see. I couldn't find anything via google either.
It is about 16"x11"
>>2589095
Looks like a kid doodling mayans
whats a more effective way for posting your gross shit that you dont want anyone to know about online when you already have an dangerously large following for your normal work?
>>2588139
if you really don't want people to know about it, don't post it, unless you've switched the style up significantly some will probably figure it out
on the brightside, almost no one will care that you draw smut as long as it's not overbearingly morally questionable. if you're just embarrassed at the thought of people knowing what you're into having it under a separate alias and what not will be enough that anyone worth caring about won't bother you about it
separate account
separate email/password/etc
nothing linking one to another appart maybe for a similar artstyle
never acknowledge it publicly or to anyone for that matter.

/thread
anyone know what font is this?
Did this some years ago. Now I don't have the time to finish it nor the confidence. I think I could ruin it if I continue it since I haven't practiced painting in years.
What do you guys do to keep inspired to draw/painting?
you could sell art of this quality tho
>>2590315
You think so? I always think it is just an average painting any beginner could do.
tfw learning painting,
using one of my favorite images from a game as reference.
Feel really good about one of the girls., have a few drinks and keep on painting. Fucking butcher the other one.
Painting is ruined.
How supportive is family of your """""art""""""
>>2582645
I'm the only member in my family who has a job. Everyone else is retired and working on photography and crafts or married rich working on personal art.
I'm the black sheep, parents are always asking when I am going to quit and draw cute cartoons.
>>2582645
Allowed me to neet for 4 years
>Mfw only a year left and I'm still nowhere close to a level I could get some work
My dad was a painter, and he wants me to succeed where he failed.
or just scrap the whole thing and draw a monkey on a yellow bg
there are no rules really
I love it as it is.
Good job, anon.
am i doing it right ?
>>2589971
We usually just call that a collab thread.
how do I start colouring like this?
I use paint tool sai so I was wondering if I needed to set me brushes up so I can get this kind of effect the image has.
>>2591434
master study.
>>2591434
does a pantyhose like garment for the full arm/hand/presumably torso area and maybe lower body like in this piece exist in real life... or is this just fantasy?
>>2591459
they are real
Well?
>>2555449
Really shit, I grew right during the transition period were schools stop caring about penmanship and more towards typing.
Anyone live in any 3rd world countries here doing commissions? I was considering visiting family in Africa and to live comfortably I'd only need to make $300 a month.
I'm not making any money on commissions now, just asking for future reference.
>>2587919
That solely depends on your skill level, it doesn't matter where you're taking commissions from, as long as you have internet to be able to upload your work. $300 a month is very achievable; but again it depends on your current work.
>family in Africa
>>2587919
Just a heads up.
Not sure if it applies to you, but starting up a commission business has shown to be a lot slower than I though it would be, so you might wanna start ahead and get to a stable work flow before you consider moving.
I have a small fanbase and though the commissions would be flowing in once I opened, but apart from friends, it's very dead, getting enough exposure can take some time and work I guess.
Best of luck to you though, 300 a month seems like it would be a breeze once you get you name out there if you are an ok artist.

Lol thanks for fucking up my squidman
Speaking of squid porn I'm looking for advice to help me make this skin-tight anti-gravity geek-boy shota the best request art anyone's ever gotten.
Any pointers, comments, or noticed flaws?
Just started a short comic. I don't know what I'm doing but I'm gonna do it any way. Crit would be nice. Thank you.
If you were someone who commissions other artists, who would you pick?
you can pick anyone, but price would still apply if they are famous.
