Exactly what I'm going to tell that bitch tomorrow.
I'd like to start doing value studies. Can I start digitally or would it be better to begin traditionally? If so, what are some tools I need?
>>2286121
As I am, knowing less than next to nothing about value studies (specifically of people), this is all I can do.
In regards to digital, what is a good program to use? Because SAI is... bad, so far. I am bad at this, but I'd like to improve. Do I need to study light and shadow, still lives, portraiture, or anything like that?

Charcoal.
Copy the bottom of https://courses.byui.edu/art110_new/art110/week06/images/values.jpg 5-10x a day until you can confidently/easily reproduce it from memory. Then move to http://www.artistsnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/5-landscape-value-scale.jpg 5-10x a day. Seriously, copy it 5-10x EVERY DAY and get it exact.
So now you can reproduce values, now you need to observe them. Copy Bargue plates. Block in value shapes (5 levels) one at a time working your way from dark to light. Get them...

Oh, and use soft and medium compressed charcoal on white strathmore or canson sketch paper, not printer paper (it doesn't havd enough tooth)

fuck off jazza
>>2286023
Jazza makes me so sad. He seems to know what he's talking about, understands the fundamentals and all, but then his finished stuff always comes out looking like some 13 year old's first attempt on Paint. What the fuck is up with him.

Kek, I swear someone makes this comment every time there's a Jazza thread.
Can we decide what the most autist/ic/ drawing/painting program is once and for all? What do you use? What are the pros/cons? Do you swear by one?
>>2285431
I dunno, I use Photoshop, but I've been using it since before I started drawing digitally. Too lazy to try and learn Painter.
>>2285431
Paint Tool Sai because a lot of Tumblrinas use it.
>>2285884
Sai certainly seems to be what all the M-MOE artists use.

who ever said spending money on studying art was a bad investment!
Or you could use it on something that will not make you regret it.
