gonna colour it later

Cubebrushes' seem pretty cool, and the league system (gold for pros, silver for hobbyists, bronze for noobies) works really well. The competition is judged by AAA industry artists too, and the sense of community is great.

I went to cubebrush, but it seems the forums are being reworked, damn shame. But those comps are fun.

Why do you want a following on twitter? Don't most artists share their work on tumblr and instagram?

>>2541299
Different people use twitter. More banter.

I already have a few thousand followers on tumbl so I want to expand into new frontiers. Funneling people from my tumblr doesnt seem to work.

just looking for tips really

Top kek.

>$15,000

WHoops added an extra zero at the end there. They are going for $1,500 a pop on average.

>>2541023
idk man this looks fucking trash

>I want my place decked out in $15,000 canvases.
Could you be any more shallow?
Go buy an an actual painting you enjoy to look at for reasons other than it's monetary value and when people ask you about it rather than boasting about how much money you have tell them about how you like it.

>how do you draw interiors and scenery?
>i can do perspective and color, those will be easy
>asks for environment advice, says fundamentals will be easy

>oh shit, what are you doing...

a-are you ok, anon?

Feng Zhu is pretty good if you already know how to draw, because a lot of his videos are environment-related, and he answers a lot of more advanced art problems. The one downside is he doesn't talk about fundamentals, so you'll learn more from him once you get familiar with environment-related fundamentals (perspective, composition and contrasts are things you can kinda get away without if you only do characters, but definitely need as a generalist.)

>>2540444
I never said anything would be easy, I just said I wanted to prioritize working on the things I feel I am behind on.

pull off the back of it , it should just pop off then u can put ink into the hole and it will fill it . then pop the cap back onto it. i have one of those .

it might take a little force to pull it out though, if you can pull it or you break the string off try pliers or your teeth but it will pop out.

oh one last thing i forgot, when you fill it hold it over something to catch the drainage from the tip cus it will leak for a little bit to get rid of excess ink, you only need to use a very small amount of ink in it.

You need to practice line quality and accurately getting down shapes before moving onto complex stuff man

>>2541076
I acknowledge the fact that my lines are shit and my shapes are a bit off, but adding a little detail helps me see where I am lacking. I dont understand why its so taboo for the inexperienced to try something difficult. It is easier to see your mistakes and there is greater reward for getting it right. Also post your attempt anon

My normal work, for reference.

When it comes to water color, you're going to want to start from your lightest values/hues to your darkest.

Good book, covers different techniques and suggests paints to use but mainly focuses on portrait, some paintings suffer tumblr nose but they still look good imo.
