It's been over a decade, but I decided to jump right into painting again. I'm running into the same problem I did back then.
The problem I have run into is mixing and matching colors. I'm working on images of the oregon coast and seascapes. It's not tropical, the water is rarely blue. There's a lot of green, gray, and odd blues in the water.
I'm not sure how to go about mixing to get the right shades. Here's some reference photos, tell me what you would mix to get to the right shades.
You can see how varied the water pallet can get.
This really isn't art related perfectly but...what keeps you awake for those long drawing nights? I can't do coffee as I hate the taste.

>I can't do coffee as I hate the taste.
Coffee's an acquired taste. Buy a decent coffee and force yourself to drink it each day. Put in some milk and sugar to start, and after a couple weeks you will start to enjoy the taste. Eventually you can reduce or even cut out entirely the milk and sugar and then just drink it black.
Otherwise you can drink other caffeinated things like tea or soft drinks.
I sometimes get up and go for a walk too. It usually clears your head and wakes you up a bit plus has the bonus of giving you fresh eyes on your piece when you return.
Try Monster, Rockstar, 5-hour Energy, etc. There's plenty of options besides coffee.

you can also drink milk with sugar, or juices with a bit of alcohol, just to chill. If you need caffeine you can drink energetic drinks but that makes you even more sleepy after the main rush of caffeine kicks in. also chocolate or chocolate milk is good for night

I'd be all for this but she looks like a younger version of my mom and it's fucking me up
Post some pornsites with good lighting.
BLACKED.com. Really great use of colors and the composition of each shot is just godly.

Kindgirls, used it for about 6 years now.
Mostly naturalistic imagery so the forms are understandable.
Sooo...... We've been asked as a final project in an art class to create a new art movement. I was thinking about something that would be sort of a combination of hyper-realism, surrealism and classical painting. However, that seems to be a stupid idea. I'm currently clueless and duno what to do. HELP! any ideas anons .....?? (P.S. OP is fag)
>>2533148
The real stupid thing is the project. You don't just come up with something on a whim like this. Art movements are organic, larger than one person, and the result of a lifetime of set beliefs/philosophies and tastes and are often in reaction to another existing movement. Also I don't think art movements are even really relevant anymore.
>>2533151
True I completely agree, however i will almost certainly get an F.
To be more specific the movement can be something funny as well.
I was recently thinking about a movement that would oppose internet/post-internet art.

>I was recently thinking about a movement that would oppose internet/post-internet art.
You can do something like this that opposes all the "advancements" in art and technology and just have it all go back to cave paintings
Hello /ic/, I know it's a bit much to ask but could anyone draw a motorcycle for me? Even if it's just a barebones sketch or doodle, I really want to show it to my father for his birthday but my drawing skills...leave something to be desired

Hey guys, lets draw pepes together
>>2532475
reposting my first one
Here I have another one
Just finished making this backyard or garden sun. It's made of wrought iron and painted taracotta. Any feedback would be great too. Thanks
S.L.
Who would this shit in their garden is a better question..
>>2532425
kind of stuff you buy for garden decor at walmart or something like hobby lobby.
Someone who gets more pussy than a cheeto eating faggot troll like yourself. Prick.
I'm trying to get into drawing mytholigical creatures (mainly dragons) but I can't figure out how to go about actually doing it. All this loomis stuff seems to be about drawing mainly humans, and doing a simple leg with illiterave drawing doesn't help either. The only time when I can draw something decent is when I boot up ANB on my gamecube and draw screenshots of characters. I can never figure out how to get the character in the pose I want without copying parts from a ton of pictures, and even then It looks like shit. How the fuck do I go about doing this?
>>2532383
Ask the beginner thread.
>>2532383
spyro ps1 was shit to begin with. Every iteration since has gotten worse, and your drawing spyro shit from gamecube. kill yourself you child
draw dinosaur fossils
Is there any point for a hobbyist to stream while drawing even if they don't do commissions?
For fun, I guess?
If you enjoy interacting with people while you draw there's no real downside. Interacting with people who like your work is usually not a bad idea anyway, it builds a bit more of a personal connection and I've found (from observation, I don't stream myself) that people who watch streams and talk to artists are the most likely to be willing to commission you in the future.
>>2531670
Why do people ask these silly questions?
>>2531670
for building up a larger fanbase.
fans are fun, even if you don't want to make money with your art
>4 years of practice
>no progress at all
And you hypocrites were telling that talent is just a meme
>>2524021
What type(s) of practice did you do? What was your starting point? How much time do you spend practicing each day?
try to find a different way to learn
>>2524021
>Focusing on time spent rather than lessons learned
you had it coming desu
I have all summers to get better. What should i study and what should my schedule look like?
I think you should draw a lot.
>>2532490
>>2532492
Oh, by the gods, I wasn't going to reply, then I say this.
Lemme just drop an image...
...
...
Done! Now, this image doesn't mean much on it's own, but it'll help you understand why you're doing what I'm about to prescribe. Namely, drawabox.com
This site will teach you the basics of all the things, so as you go through them, you'll be getting betterer and betterer. Assuming you do two lessons a week, it'll take you seven weeks to complete, then another 7 to re-do all of them just in case. Have fun!

I would say making a porn game. This is my current plan. But, I want to do 3D porn game.
Lets face it the 2D porn art is saturated as fuck. You need to be insanely good to get money unless you get lucky like Shadman.
But, if you can program and make a porn game you can get a lot of money. Also, it probably doesn't even need to be furry stuff.
Go on /vg/ now you will Katawa Shoujo, you will see Bioshock infinite. So much untapped potential and money to be made.
>>2532057
That is a meme. Lets face it a lot of artist aren't good, but they can draw the same face and get 10k on pateron every month.
Howdy, /ic/! So I was writing some stories the other day, and I fell for the "make your own game" meme. Basically, I've got 50€ on the side to invest in art, so I was wondering if any of you are down to do some --> paid <-- commissions.
I don't think this goes against the rules of this board, but I'm not sure. If anyone is interested we can discuss paymemt method and artwork :)
>>2531989
1. You could have written it all in drawthread or in promoting yourself thread.
2. There are also sites like ConceptArt or Upwork.
3. You haven't left your contact info.
4. You are too vague and meneing hard, nobody will actually give two shits about your "job advert".
>>2531996
Well. I thought someone would be down to draw for money. I guess I'll go to one of those websites then
>>2531996
Don't be a cunt, the guy is willing to pay for something and there are plenty of people around happy to get paid.
Considering /ic/ constantly bumps the shit out of people asking for free art with "whatre you paying ;)" and this guy actually gave a price-point, he's already a step ahead of the average.
better than the figuarts kun
it's your money m8
but honestly you could just download a virtual 3D model that looks just like it
