"I can't stand this beast wearing father's armor"
-Last word of the young prince

May i beg some advices fellas?
Get the title ?
i'm not sure i like my colors.
Crow look so weird.
>>2599670
Is the beast his dead father giving him the last hug or something? Dunno.
The crow looks weird because you drew its wings mirrored and on the front plane instead of on the sides. Look up an actual crow in that position.
There's something It's been bothering me.
Even while I am confident on drawing from imaginations, it still doesn't reach the level when I try to copy some photo reference.
is this normal?
does all the masterpieces in old master paintings were done using models and props?
like caravaggio paintings were done with camera oscura and all that shit?
It's pretty common, yes. It's natural for images produced with a real-life reference to look better than stuff produced without. That's why there is so much emphasis on studying references. As your skill increases, there could well be less of a gap, but all the old masters used life models.
Alex Ross uses live models for everything he does and he's constantly regarded as the best Marvel comic artist.
Stop giving a fuck about "pride"

>does all the masterpieces in old master paintings were done using models and props?
not always props, but many of them did use models. But they could draw convincingly without them in many cases.
I need a source of reference photos that isn't online, because the temptation to play games or watch videos is too tempting. Anything like that for figures that isn't gonna cost me an arm and a leg?

Well there's super pose books, or just take a few minutes out of your day to save pictures from figure drawing sits and then unplug your router. I've done this, used to be in the same boat as you, needing to unplug my router to not distract myself.

Can you spot the perspective mistakes?

What's up with the two ladies on the right side? They looks really off.

The figures are out of perspective and give the classic tilting look.

Do you draw people in public?
Are there certain rules you should follow? Has anyone ever got offended at you for rdrawing them? Anyone appreciate it?
I want to draw on the bus because it lets me get better in that down time, but im worried of coming across as a weirdo.
>>2596635
youre gonna get thrown off the bus
Try to only draw the people occupied with a phone in the bus, they won't even notice
Other people will just search themselves a different seat, those fucking faggots
Don't ever show your sketchbook.
They'll flip through it.
You'll struggle to explain.
You'll remember it forever.
Any opinions on free drawing programs? Krita, Gimp, OpenToonz, etc.? I've used some terrible programs but some are really decent.
I'm a beginner and use firealpaca, it lacks some features but I like the simple pen and pencil configuration.
I use Krita and it seems to offer pretty much everything you might want, although the learning curve is a little steep and the available documentation isn't great.
Before that I used GIMP, which is also pretty complete but doesn't work with my current tablet.
>>2587776
I really love OpenToonz.
I pirated every-fucking-thing else. Why don't you all just do the same?
"Solitude"
To be frank, I don't care much for this piece.

Thanks for asking. I dont believe its coincidence that I made this after two weeks of not spending time with friends and family. I didnt intend on placing a spade in the center when I had the idea a week ago. I didn't know what to call it until this morning. But I think it completely reflects my state of mind. I havent made a piece of art since middle school.

Since before my depression started for real now that I think about it.
After visting /adv/ and /fa/, I'm coming here for advice senpais
After three years of thinking about it, I finally decided to start tattooing myself, and I have gained a weird fascination with characters (especially animals) from old children's books (pic related, which will be my first).
Unfortunately, I don't have any experience with research in this branch of art, and I was wondering if you could give me pointers for books, drawings and art styles I should look out for desu
I'm quite /fit/ so I don't have the issue of making tattoos...

humpty bumpy
pic is neat. Just google animal tattoos or something. Basically every tattoo artist is on instagram search there
That was probably the most useless reply I've ever received, even /fa/ was better at this
I'm no artist, picture attached is an example of a placeholder character graphic for a game I'm making called ConsolePilot. I would be commissioning artists per work, this is to be discussed more later. I'm also working on a rpg maker game (rpg maker mv), I will need a gritty sci-fi anime cg and pixel capable artists for that project as well. I am launching a new development community for these two titles and future projects.
Pay will be good and royalties for an artists share in profit are negotiable. Legal work would be expected as we neared release of...

whats your budget
>>2596414
I rake in enough off my salary to pay for artistic work with 300-400$ a month. I plan on running a kickstart/fund me or similar to help expedite paying for commissions.
I'm putting a lot of my own resources into the development of these games.
picture attached is a second frame to the op.
>>2596414
you will work for exposure :^)
Are there any success stories about people who started art late and still got really good? Apart from Van Gogh, though I do love him

my point was that he painted his first painting when he was like 27
Is it worth it to bail college and focus on art?
I'm 21 years old and getting real tired of education, not to mention from a 3rd world country where engineers make $400 a month on average. I'd rather just focus on art and live on commissions for $100 a piece.
What do you guys think? yay or nay?
>>2598320
it might be kind of a meme but you dont live all to often, better take some risks and have a chance to do what you love imo.
Worth it in what way?
Financially it's a fucking retarded decision. Especially if you've already invested in a year or two of college.
If you're going to decide to be a professional craftsman in any craft you should already be good enough to make at least a bit of income at it, so that when you take the plunge you already have a bit of a setup. Going full NEET when you aren't even good at art is a seriously retarded decision in almost every way, hone your skill as an artist while making a living and then try to become a professional when you're...

Depending on his college it may be wise to quit.
If his tuition will rack up $50k/yr in debt he might want to get out now. I did and I'm grateful every day that I left.
I attended a Comp Sci degree for 3 months and dropped out. In that 3 month period I accumulated $15k in debt sitting at an 8.9% interest rate.
It took me 4 years to pay off debt I accumulated in 3 months.
College is great if you need...
