I'm writing an essay on how Machiavelli would act and react in contemporary America. Our government, reputation as American people, history, and political strategies compared to what Machiavelli had written in The Prince.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm at a block.

Not OP. But that is the author of "The Prince". Machiavello.
so im trying to learn perspective, trouble is i have problems visualizing so i need the learning process to involve an area im intimately familiar with.
Which brings us to pic related<
just some random field where i placed three markers and took pictures.
Can anyone explain the Basic most Basics of perspectives (redundant, slow repetitive)
but using points ABC as you explain?
Like please someone just give me the full lesson plan, even go over shit you might think i already know. Like "objects get smaller as they get farther durr"...

>Like please someone just give me the full lesson plan, even go over shit you might think i already know. Like "objects get smaller as they get farther durr" seriously, don't assume i know shit, cause i don't when it comes to this.
Aint nobody got time for that.
Check out Perspective Made Easy by Norling.
What are you even trying to do with this point fuckery?
Just put horizontal line on the page, place a vanishing point, draw a square, draw lines from the corners to the square to the vanishing point.
If you're really confused an need a primer read this.

Op thats just pure autism.
What are the best art communities around today for sketchbooks, critiques, and high profile users? Is there anything on the level of old concpetart.org, or is the community just fractured and destroyed now?
Thanks.
(Artist is Yuriy Chemezov, by the way.)
I hope someone suggests something good.

Well I saw that there is a group of people attempting to create CGhub 2.0 of sorts called CGplus, but the place is dead. It's just hard to find a good art community.
I went to DrawCrowd today, and there is anime porn all over the front page.
Private, smaller Facebook groups (not Level Up!) can be really great. The more niche the group, the better. Search for communities based on industry or subject matter.
Fantasy/sci-fi/concept art based groups tend to be full of drama queens & immature shitters - I don't know where to go for that. Other outlets of illustration (which /ic/ widely ignores) are still around - thought "digital painting" groups tend to be the most popular.
Absolutely nothing beats 1 on 1 feedback with a peer who you admire and respect (and is preferably better than...

Checked out your gofund me and other links. your music isn't the worst, but the pretentious list of interests and super cringy bio are going to hurt you as much as your lack of talent.
get rid of the depressing backstory and focus on your skills. Most people's life sucks, you're not going to get money out of people by trying to play the part of the misunderstood genius/artist. You need to be WAY better than you currently are for that to work.
Also, maybe you shouldn't use a van gogh...

Perspective guy back again. Still struggling with this idea of getting a perfect square in perspective. Different guides and people have been talking about running a line from the Station Point at 45deg from the lines drawn to the vanishing points.
But I get different results based upon where I put the station point. Is this correct? Are they all squares, just skewed by perspective?
From the guide I'm using
>>2417087
Sorry if I'm derailing your thread (I hope someone can answer your question for you) but what is the use for this? Is this one of those things you learn as a concept and kind of have in the back of your head or is there any merit to this when actually creating illustrations? It just seems a bit autistic and impractical
>>2417096
Your question is legit. I want to do more architectural drawings (it's the field I'm in). This guide has shown me how to draw things like arches in perspective, shrinking consistently into the background. I'm not sure how to draw the first one without winging it, though. Is it taller than it is wide? who the fuck knows
Can't even draw loomis. Where do I go to fix this shit?
>>2416989
This is just a matter of simple repetition
>>2416989
Practice drawing circles underneath each drawing first.

would you say this is good/accurate?

checked review. they agree on it being accurate.
Why buy one? You can get one from pretty much anywhere.

Check this out in the meantime. Also, don't buy a real skull. That shit could be haunted if illegaly obtained from a burial site or something. Half srs.

So what do we do now that AI can art better than us?
Like what's the point in learning to art when all I need to do to make quality lewd art is grab a still shot from hardcore porn and then feed it through

Entertainment, achievement, personal satisfaction, etc.

>digital trash
I'm learning drawing, and one thing I'm a bit iffy on is color. when just doing random art, do you just use colored pencils? Like, what is something like this image colored with?
>>2419656
>drawing
>color
that's rendering anon, not drawing
as to your question, you can use paint, colored pencils, pastels, or whatever else floats your boat for colors. you'll probably want to focus on the drawing aspects first before moving to color, but that's just my 2 cents
that particular image is almost certainly digital, but i might be wrong.
>do you just use colored pencils
personally, I'm not a fan of traditional coloring. most I do is digital paint.
>this image colored with
It's CG. most likely.
If you want to achieve similar style, marker is good choice to start with. You can somehow do that with colored pencil but It will pain in the ass.
>>2419658
I figured it was digital, so thinks for clearing it up. Like I said, I'm learning, so stuff like this is just coming to me to ask now. I'm practicing just base drawing as it is, before I do anything else or sink any money into it. I want to try digital, drawing with a tablet, but again, not going to chuck out cash for that until I'm sure I can produce something worthwhile on paper.

Could you share it ?
Hahaha Naughty dawg artist steals fucking concept art from Ubisoft.
Won't link to it cause it's Fagtaku.

that's really weird. but it's probably just a placeholder they forgot was in the trailer. not too uncommon for a game

They edited out the assassin in the Image.
Not sure why they'd do that if they weren't trying to do this on purpose.
It was just a prank bro!
