WHY ARE THESE SKINNY LINES SO HARD
>>2537449
i'm just a beginner but in reality is a shit ton of short strokes and CTRL+Z
I learned by watching live streams of artists on nico live
>>2537449
also i personally prefer using a soft point brush for lineart
your lines are far too neat imho
If it's in your sketchbook, it belongs in this thread.
Crit is always welcome.

Requesting interesting fashion designs for inspiration and reference.
I considered asking /fa/, but they're even bigger dicks than, well, d/ic/ks.
If someone's interested I can dump my fashion folder as well, it's really unorganized though.

is that from the extreme angles series? sauce pls?
>>2517652
Maybe? If google can't help you out, neither can I, since I got it from a previous reference thread as well. I'll dump for you what I have though,

Anyone check this out
I hope someone backs it and posts it here
>>2545412
it comes out on august so lets hope we have someone who doesn't forget about this by then, we are poor men, spare us this PDF
>>2545412
I backed it. Hope the PDF doesn't have DRM baked in.
I would keep looking, but the flea market that I can order custom prints from is about to close soon so I'm here asking if anyone knows the art I'm looking for and if I don't order it by today it won't get here on time before the birthday of whom I'm planning to gift this to. I would just get a similar one, but she fell in love with this specific one. Any help would be much appreciated.
Been trying to find a specific print of their faces. It's very similar to this image, but the difference is, the only thing you can see is their faces with no bodies in a black background.
If I recall correctly, I don't believe you can see any of their hair either, just their faces in a geometric pattern in different colors.
Also, they all seem to be looking to the side rather than at the camera.
All of their signatures are next to their respective faces.
Haven't had any luck in Google, etc. searching for related terms so far.
I'm still looking, this one seems more similar to it. Just not in boxes, all black background and their faces are made out of triangles of different colors.
>>2545221
Getting closer
>>2545221
Found it, this is it, except the version of it I'm looking for is all artifacts into medium triangles to form their faces and all of their signatures are next to their faces.
What do you guys think of Manga studio 5?
>>2544621
Been using it for 3 years, pretty good PS alternative. Not as comprehensive as PS in terms of image editing/manipulation, but it's a solid art program. Pic related done in MS5.
>>2544621
I think manga studio's brush engine allows crisper and finer lineart than photoshop does. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
Hey I'm looking for puristic landscape drawings, preferably jungle setting, with alot of depth but without much details
I'm want to learn how I can abstract faraway trees, hills and mountains with only two colors
Two colors? Fuck, but you lose out in a lot of atmospheric depth.
Just by looking at the pic you uploaded, the artist used line weight. More detail in the front, less in the background. Emphasize what is in the foreground.
>>2544473
yes, but I dont like texturising with crosshatch, so I'm actually looking for little bit cleaner approaches.
not implying pic related is that but b&w forest sceneries are hard to find
>>2544479
Yeah, I was going to ask what did you mean by two colors. Ballpoint could be easier but I don't that's what you want to work with.
Honestly I hate to break it to you, but crosshatch and stippling might be the only two ways to go. The fact that the space between the lines create a tone; the more distance between the lines vs. the less distance and the cloudier it looks.
Did you want to work with grey scale? Or I mean a value scale? You could also try to outline with a thing white outline to keep the shapes in the distance.

Questions that don't deserve their own thread.
does anyone have that image the breaks down the colours underneath the skin of the face both simply (forehead=yellow, cheeks/nose=red, chin=blue) and more complexly? i believe the explanation was illustrated on a male bust

How do you call this style in general? The one with many lines? Any examples of early inspirations.? Thanks.
I've seen a lot of people and many professionals using 3D Models for their illustrations.
I was wondering what are the benefits for this?
I'm guessing lighting and values would be a lot easier if you've got a model to paint on top of.
Would it be worth my time to learn 3D Modelling for my illustrations?
>>2544956
It would be beneficial to learn 3D modelling, yes but the majority of illustrators and other artists use 3D models as a tool to help speed up workflow. From what I have seen and heard it's best if you can already draw and paint something without the help of something like 3D models, the model just helps you get more done in less time,
>>2544956
I think the ultimate use of 3d would be to use it in a manner similar to how Gurney uses physical maquettes for light reference. Think in terms of creating reference for light, shadow and perspective etc. rather than a base to paint over. It's impossible to calculate all cast shadows in a complex scene correctly, it makes sense it can be extremely useful. Obviously you need solid fundamentals to have the most use of it.

Why is this place so narrow focused? I don't necessarily think what is posted here is bad. But I am curious as to why this place feels limited in what is posted.
Pic unrelated.
>>2544409
It's not like there's a lack of them per se. They are there; they're just not as prominent as other mediums here.
Still, the reason everything here is weighted towards illustration and painting boils down to accessibility and the website's userbase which is mostly comprised of cartoon/video game fanatics.
