Will I get better if I do 1 hour a day of practice /ic/?
Is it really essential to do 4 hours a day of practice?
I'm just a hobbyist and I want to get at a level where I can draw furry porn for $.
It's not essential.
You'll improve with 1 hour a day, just don't expect massive improvement.
Just study smart. Don't draw random shit doodles, make the most of your hour learning fundamental stuff. Do a little more on the weekend.
What I'd do in your place is do my research on the weekends - what I want to work on the for the week, read the books I need to read, watch some videos, find some refs, whatever. Draw a bit too. Then on weekdays, apply what you researched for an hour a day. Review and find what you need to work on each weekend.

mileage is everything imo. 1 hour a day won't get you anywhere.

I like.
I want to get into drawing traditionally, but I don't know what I should buy to start out.
Which utensils, sketchbooks, and drawing boards are good for beginners?
>>2289904
It literally doesn't matter as a beginner. You're perfectly fine with a regular pencil and a stack of printer paper.
To start?
blank printer paper, bic pens, and the pencils you have laying around. A ruler wouldn't hurt to have as well. You seriously don't need an abundance of tools and what tools you will need depends on your goals and what kind of shit you want to produce.
Don't bother with a nice sketchbook, it'll just make you anxious to draw in it, and your first drawings will almost certainly be shit. Use supplies you don't mind wasting.

Some thoughts I've recently had and bits of wisdom I've picked here and there.
'Games industry is exploding and although it is a very volatile and fast paced industry, as a whole it is doing amazing'. Talking to some concept artists however the root of the problem some of us might be experiencing became clear: Most of the explosive growth of the industry has been in the casual games sector. And not so much in the 'cool realistic triple AAA title' sector. However that's the jobs everyone...

Getting a job in the video game industry is ALWAYS through recommendation first. Doesn't matter if it's AAA or indie. Recruiters ask employees if they know anyone first before even looking at any random resumes. It's very hard to just submit a resume and get a job.
Technical skill demand isn't low. People aren't dumb. They know if the art in their game is bad it's going to look like a shitty cheap game. You have to be good no matter what.
3d is extremely important. It drastically improves the speed and workflow of a concept artist....

Keep in mind that handheld devices are getting incredibly powerful compared to consoles and PC.
In 5 years time we will have medium tier phones able to render 720p visuals of a PS3, which has been the point where going "realistic" is aesthetically pleasing.
Games will remain casual, yes, but many of them will...

>TRY TO BE MORE ACTIVE AND GIVE PEOPLE SOME FEEDBACK - there are many studies left unreplied, which is bit sad and can be quite demotivating for the people that try their best to improve, but are left directionless.
good more tears means less competition.

competition for what?
What are the best of the following for general use?
Fountain pen

Lamy safari is good fountain pen if you are on budget or want a pen you can carry around everywhere and not worrying it gets stolen or something. If you want to spend around $100 you have a lot more of options. I don't have much experience but I believe Pilot pens should be pretty good. Even Glenn Vilppu has one. I have Parker Sonnet with gold plated nib - if you are looking for Parkers get one with 18k gold nib, it writes smoother. If you have +$500 it's going to be Montblanc, but that pen will last your...

I was looking at that Lamy pen, and since this is my first fountain pen, I think I'll go with that.
>You'll also have to chooce your ink carefully - I clogged my lamy safari bad using wrong ink (dip pen ink)
I'll keep this in mind, thanks.
