Hey, we're starting up a new Skype group that's focused with gittin gud. We'll be doing weekly optional draw tasks and google hangouts. We're looking for some people, if anybody wants to join you can post your skype info.
Wen is that you?
>>2286962
Is there gonna be voice chat involved?
>>2286962
post your work, ive been in many from ic and a lot have gone to hell cause no one was serious about getting good, or just doing it for a hobby
>>2286973
You don't HAVE to voice chat but that is something we'll be doing.
>>2286974
If you post your skype we'll all show you our shit. We're not super amazing but we're decent and I can at least say I'm wanting to improve, which is why I've made this new group. This is gonna be a small community that is very group-focused- your input matters. I can tell you want to git gud, we all do, so let's work towards concentrating on art and actually getting there.

Stopped reading right there.
>>2286981
If we were amazing we wouldn't have a group dedicated to becoming amazing you dolt. If you want to stay on here and be angry on /ic/ and never git gud you can do that but all the artists from /ic/ who actually BECAME professional stopped with the exact attitude you're having, left this forum and worked on improvement (Upon, TehMeh, etc.). You have a choice to join others on a journey to actually improve, do you want to get somewhere or stay here in the mud?
Stop with the bottom-line thinking, let's become masters!
Hey can I join?
>>2286992
Oops I forgot my skype.

How about you stop socializing with other faggots and focus on learning on your own?
>we're
how many involved so far OP?
>>2286962
Your group will just devolve into shitposting guaranteed.
>>2286995
this post holy shit
true autism
>>2286995
Groups can be beneficial if you let them be, it helps to have people boost your confidence and give you objectives. I've tried working on my absolute own and it's not exactly easy. Pretty sure you're b8ing me m8 but I'll answer seriously anyway.
>>2286997
Five including myself, we want this to be a community of 10-15... maybe a few more but the bigger it gets the more likely we'll get into what >>2287001 said. We're trying to avoid shitposting, we're gonna work on making sure this group is successful. I'm getting older; I'm getting tired of being mediocre and I'm sure a lot of you are too.
merio_kingston
add a nigga
>>2287004
alright im in unless there's a significant skill gap, as in i'd much rather be the worst artist of the group.
Smutbrush
>>2287004
good luck it always devolves into shitposters, weebs, people trying to impress one another, and perpetual beginners who don't want to study the basics.
>>2287025
We could use you, we need to make sure it doesn't turn into that and it sounds like you have a lot experience with past groups.
If you could show off your guys stuff first that'd be nice. It's probably best to group up with people of a similar skill level
senorbacardi
add me bruhs
>>2286995
This post is literally the entire problem with /ic/ nowadays, holy fuck.
>>2287037
Why do you insist on having more goddamn social media you already have your myspace your tumblr your instagram why the fuck do you insist on this shit? Stop worrying about what other people are doing and mind your own business, focus on your own shit.
>>2287024
sorry but I'm worser
>>2287044
>myspace
holy shit my sides
>>2287044
You're on an image board talking to us instead of drawing.... and you're telling us to stop socializing lol.
>>2287048
This is an Anonymous image board not your blog take this shit anywhere but here the whole point of this place is to remain Anonymous.

Can't guarantee I'll be participating everyday, but I want to give this a try.

>nick's rivet_eye, let's see how it'll go
skype's shit btw, discort is waay better.
I hate Skype because I like to listen to music while I work, also what the fuck is this Skype won't be supported on modern Windows bullshit?
>>2287140
This is a text group chat with an optional google hangout where you can mute your mic. I have no idea what you're talking about on Skype not working for modern Windows.
I haven't used Skype in a year, and it made me update. Whatever, I'm johnmblaz
>>2287140
Get skype for desktop on windows 10
>>2287075
G+ is better than Skype, not sure about Discort
aghostinthesnow

lamisssosow
i'm not good really but i'm trying a lot, im kind of an autist inasmuch as all i do is sit alone at home and i've never had contact with other artists so i think it would be beneficial for me
Have you guys considered using discord instead of skype?

add me: msmartwork
I may or may not have anything worth of value to contribute to the group.
Do you have to be good to join, or can someone who just started learning also Join?
Beware of blind leading the blind
Peer groups are fun and all but keep in mind you tend to want to surround yourself with superiors more than eqals
>>2287404
Well we've already ran into that issue lol.
RobertPaulBlartson
Been drawing/painting/sculpting for about 2.5 months and have no art friends. All the kids at community college are either underage females (I'm 25/m) or have their earbuds in all the time.
skype is groggers500
I'm just starting to learn, but i'd like it if i could be a part of the group even with very little experience

>Stop worrying about what other people are doing and mind your own business, focus on your own shit.
Why don't you take your own advice though? Why do you mind what other people are doing instead of minding your own shit?
Fuck it, ain't like I got anything to lose. metalgearanonymous
I'm interested to see how people interact in this and toss ideas back and forth for improving.

<: Look forward to seeing ya.
So this group is still in the making and we've had to make some corrections along the way. We're not looking for newcomers, we're wanting people that have put in at least a good chunk of time and have a basic understanding of fundamentals.So I'm cleaning shop and we do have a couple spaces open now. Like I said, we need people with some experience so if you're still interested in joining it would be great if you could attach a picture of your work.
already been in a few that went to shit, gunna give this 1 more try.

>>2287449 is me
This is my most recent painting. I had to take it at a shitty angle because my overhead lights were causing glare, and I've done some more work on it since then but it's not with me atm.
>>2288075
WIP I'm working on. We're not looking for amazing people, just guys who have a general understanding of things.
>>2286962
Please post artist name OP

I'm a watercolor/pen and ink nerd.
>>2286962
I'm not sure of my skype name (my parents use/have it but I dont), tell me the group's name so I may find you later. Pic related, trying to get concept art gud
>>2288113
>concept art gud
More like surrealism art gud.
>>2288080
Do you guys have any sort of plan for what you're going to study? Any kind of curriculum or weekly goal/project?
>>2288144
We have a weekly drawquest and we're still working out a lot of the kinks. The group's about full though, maybe 2-3 people more at most.
But what kind of topics? Study? Imagination? And in general, what type of artists are mostly in the group? Hobbists? Fanartists? Porn artists? Or serious students practicing to be conceptartists/illustrators? Depending on this you'll be biased towards specific topics.
>>2287606
I forgot the pic and went to sleep, luckily this thread is still alive lol
>>2286962
Yea. I've been looking for a small group of artists.
Lets see how this turns out.
wallkick2 btw
>>2288255
Do you guys still have space? When do you guys plan on starting? I'm really interested but I probably won't be able to start until the new year (maybe).
Godsh0t
>>2288255
I would love to join if you guys still have space left
m.m.r.g.l.
>>2288486
>>2288535
You're the final two. Sorry other peeps, if the group gets too big it'll just devolve into a shitposting group and ruin the purpose. It'll also be harder to focus on creating group objectives.
As for when we start, we've already started! If you want to join later on that's cool we'll save you a spot but we're honestly still just figuring things out and while we do that we're drawing away.
I know the group isn't much and it's not exactly ideal but it's a start. We'll figure out and improve on it as we go along, this is a brand new group after all.
>tfw no invite
>>2288905
>even the group of rejects rejects you
