Recently got an intuos pro, worked great.
Plugged it in today, side buttons don't light up or work at all. I reinstalled drivers and reset my preferences. Is this a hardware problem? Has anyone else experienced this?
>>2304184
Fixed! Simply took out the battery and put it back in.
Fucking weird.
>>2304210
Wow, I ( >>2304137 ) have the exact same problem, i'll try that!
>>2304244
Ah, it worked. Thanks anon, that saved me a lot of time!
Some guy in here took my art and claimed it was his, since I've never posted on /ic/ before. Damn it.
...
What was the art that he stole?
>>2303827
Dis shit. Some anon in /b/ told me. I didn't even know that /ic/ existed.
Good morning /ic/, in the never ending questing to gitting gud its easy to forget why you go into art in the first place. Lets take a moment to reflect on why we started drawing, and how we have progressed specifically toward that goal.
Maybe you like drawing anime lesbians, maybe you've wanted to draw space marines fighting dragons on mars. Regardless of what it is, its important to remember that art doesn't have to be all work, try and go back to your roots sometimes and enjoy what got you started, it'll help you in the long run.

because killing someone takes a lot of time and effort. Having a shitty job, and keeping it, until you saved enough takes a long time. Hell, you might not get away with the murder.

Did I get it right?
>>2308762
No. Not even close.
>>2308763
What's wrong then? I want a comprehensive tier list for people.

jazza should be the one on the bottom
Do you think it's more difficult, say, in hours spent in practicing, etc. to master a musical instrument than to become an equally qualified artist?
>>2308708
Very few people on /ic/ will have the experience in both necessary to answer your question.
>>2308708
It's easier to become proficient at music in my opinion. The number of child prodigies in music vs art makes that apparent.
Also, in music you can be considered a master just by how you play, but you can play the music of Bach or Mozart or whoever. In art you need to "compose" every time you make an image.
So I would say the best comparison would be a composer to an artist. You get young children and teens who can play fantastically but they rarely ever compose, and when they do it won't...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Mastering the instrument is like mastering your pencil. I'd say learning to play already existing music is comparable in difficulty to drawing directly from reference. When it comes to composing good music it becomes far harder to compare difficulty.
Only AAA ITT.

Oh, and post the date/culture if you know it. The head in the first post is 1200-900 BCE, Olmec.
Pic related is 1400–400 BCE, Olmec.

I'm a wannabee amateur game dev who designs monsters. I'm going to post some of my monster designs and you can critique if you want.
Here's a duo of fire and ice robots
Here are some minor designs; the one in the top left is the only one I really think is passable
Some throwaway sketches
What is it that this man that you utterly despise his life , work and contemporaries? This board should be closed down, it isn't fit discuss art and it's attempt at critique is an insult to good men and women. Further it is dangerous to the artistic temperament to have such appalling governance and contributors here.
"we'd never heard of him but we like shitting on people" - will be the majority of your answers.
Why bother then? What is the point of this space?
The further this line is taken its final place is "...then you didn't deserve them".

Literally who?
Also bait harder next time, memefriend
I'm sick of photoshop. It leaks memory, slowly using more and more RAM then it gets laggy and crashes when I try to save. What is the best alternative? Is SAI good if you don't want to draw an anime style?
>>2305730
tv paint has a brush system similar to photoshop
manga / clips studio is quite good, I generally prefer it to photoshop, though I'd hang onto photoshop for little bits of postprocessing.

>Is SAI good if you don't want to draw an anime style?
SAI is just a tool, not some kind of magical filter that'll turn your highly detailed photo studies into kawaii annie mays.
Can someone give advice for someone just plain untalented? My drawing are just a result of work and nothing else and I can't get past my comfort zone. I have been drawing maybe for a year now and I can't at all compare to other artists here who have been drawing for the same time.

Killing yourself. Today would be a good time.

Show art
oh man I love this talent meme
Do you draw a circle in clockwise or anticlockwise direction?
Do you draw a horizontal lines left to right or right to left?
Do you draw a vertical line up to down or down to up?
Right handed or left handed? And do you have a normal grip?
>>2308379
Usually but not always:
1)clockwise
2)left to right
3)top to bottom
Right handed. I hold the pencil a bit weirdly I think though, like if you gently touch all the tips of your fingers together to a point that's sorta how I hold it.
>>2308379
I used to not care but then I realized that I obvious had to take advantage of the coriolis force effect to improve my circle. So now I draw my circles in the same direction that water flow down a drain, which depends on if I'm north or south of equator.
The further near the poles I am the more forceful my circles become, to the point where I can almost not contain them within a single sheet of paper. Amazing stuff.
>>2308379
Clockwise.
Left to right.
Right handed.
Still relying too much on the writing grip, but trying to force myself not to.
I never have time to paint anymore so I spend my time with oil pastels..I don't know what to think about it so what do you think /ic/?
Critique me plz.
>>2308063
It's shit.
>>2308063
You're shit.
whats the longest that you've ever spent drawing something, /ic/?
>>2307665
in a single sitting like 4 hours
extended sessions maybe about 6..?
>>2307665
>literally who
2 months on this painting 40 x 30 inches
1.5 months on another painting 30 x 24 inches
2.5 weeks on a digital painting
should you spend a lot of time measuring or should you train your eye to draw everything perfectly without it?
No rules only tools. You need to use what ever works best for you to get the job done.
>>2307494
Use your eyes. Art is not about mechanical copying.
you can't measure unconciously if you've not done it a lot of hours while feeling pain
