He just wants to be day9 of drawing. I personally enjoy watching his videos from time to time.

BUSINESSMEN. All of them. Shameless self-promoters.

He's a little too hyper for my tastes but if you are unfamiliar with photoshop or need help working on your process, he can be a helpful guide. You won't learn much beyond beginners draughtsmanship if that's what your goal is when watching his videos and there are better alternatives (Proko, etc. I want to point out that i mean you wont LEARN much, I'm not implying that he is an incompetent artist). I find that his videos aren't very enjoyable to listen to while drawing (assuming you cant see the video and your canvas at the same time). The main thing...

Not too unepic.. I would say you're well on your way :P

i'm sorry if you look like this irl. how is it being an purple man?

>>2244907
im purple abadee abadye X[)

heh... no its whats commonly known in the artistic field as "arbitrary stylization" or something -_-

I believe you can find a thread on it in the catalogue O_O

also... do you want to play my psvita? (+.[___].::)

>not cancer

>>2244759
no, that's not normal. please go and see a doctor.

>no, that's not normal. please go and see a doctor.
Oh shit... that's what I was worried about.
I assumed it was just mental stress from drawing too much complicated perspective.

oh god burn it with fire. Not a tattooist but I do respect those who are. I'm not a fan of them myself, though I do like what some people can create. The steps? Draw. being able to draw 1 for 1 is most important, especially if you want to tattoo photo-realism and such. Go to college, get in the business and get good is really all I can say.

>>2243511
don't go to college, you need to use your money on an apprenticeship, and thats really just a way to stay in the shop without being thrown out. Just keep drawing every single day and don't be a flakey asshole

I was an apprentice for about a year and I sucked at it. Yeah my art was up to par but my social skills were too shitty. You have to be confident and be able to sell yourself. Tattooing has a lot to do with reputation and popularity, at least when you are first starting. I knew a lot of skilled artists because they were either assholes or didn't know how to market themselves.

It looks fine but the limbs come off pretty flat looking. What am I looking at exactly? Some kind of bloated pastry?

Pretty much. Just a pudgy birb

No tumblr memes please.

I don't think the shape of the character from the drawing here is translated very well to the pixel you've done of her. There's a lot more upper body to the pixel, unless she's got a fucking ginormous rack then it's definitely a little off. You have any other pixel work to share?

You're FUCKED

If you want to emulate what the human eye normally sees, you shouldn't have your vanishing points on the page.

>>2239509

I've seen drawings that go slightly beyond the vanishing points, though.

I'ts clear you're the guy who did that skeleton with ramen, eficient forms and quality line art, going good, you should try dynamic poses and foreshortening

I like to listen to non-vocal OSTs that don't distract me, but just play in the background.

>this shit is torture. what the fuck is wrong with you.

Yeah, wtf was that?! How can you concentrate with this noise? lol

Anyway I wasn't talking about music as that is pretty straightforward and almost everybody enjoy listening to specific styles while working. The idea is to discover new things to listen apart from music. hehe

>>2247727
does it help you? if so use it.

he's just drawing a cylinder

>>2247727
it's useful if you actually know the 3d form you're "tracing" out

>>2243487
I find it's less to do with natural skill and more the ability to enjoy practicing for hours. Volume and effort beats thinking about it hard a million fold.

>>2243490
I don't have an issue with putting in time and effort because I enjoy it but when I think about the future its a little disheartening

>>2243496
Making money and building a future with art as a career has much more to do with making things people enjoy seeing, marketing and business sense than it has to do with achieving the skill level that only a naturally gifted person could achieve.

There are lots of very mediocre webcomic- and fanartists who are far worse than the artist you posted, yet they make 10 times more money than he does.

>>2245042
Read the sticky

(yes it is for beginners to get rid of the symbol drawing. I would had so needed that a year ago.)

I read it and I think it's snake oil. But whatever floats your boat.
It's the opposite of construction.

OP:
I have drawn by Burne Hogarth books for several years and I'm taking a course that uses some exercises from this book. The course has been interesting but hasn't really given much for me.

So, I don't really need to read this then?

P.S. Tnx for reply.

They taught me to paint the colors as you go rather than render in layers. It was very helpful when trying to go for realism.

That fucking dog has seen some shit

Why is that dog a freemason?

>>2243627
Maybe he's a religious dog and after seeing some shit, he decided to seek out an organization that would show him there's good in the world, maybe even let him redeem himself through charity, community service and weird rituals.

Fuck thats beautiful. Saved

art has never been a more available profession in history. It's not a fad. You don't know what a fad is.

yes its a fad

in 2 or 3 years there'll be no art

people will move onto something else

sports maybe
