Connectors & Shitposts

We're going live in about 2 hours and fifteen minutes fellas

LET'S FR*CKIN' GOOOOOO

>>851 Was supposed to join but staying back late at work. Have fun.

How mousey of us.

>>769 Ah, my bad! I had both open and I must have made a mistake...

>>770 But since you're here, let me tell you something >Forcing even more people to use discord or miss out You need to go away.

Note to all artists who only upload to twitter and don't care about image quality: What's the point?

>>825 Given that I've recently heard several Gook twitter artists had to clean their whole archives because of censorship laws, very little outside of having more exposure I guess. Fuck most social media.

>>826 That's not the point, exactly.

>>64 Yes. The regular thumbnail size is 200x200. You might want to make it something like 150x150.

>>65 Changed size again, tell me how it feels

>>89 It's the same size as regular thumbnails now but most spoiler images on boards are distinctly smaller than the max thumbnail size. They're usually 128px but I think it makes the lines on image a little too small so I like 150px. Posting multiple spoiled images to see what it's like.

>>613 Added

>>661 Thats because it looks like a parasite violently bursting out of a healthy host's body. It's just like watching maggots or worms festering in your food.

Wanted to upload those to Nanochan, but nanochan currently seems to not work.

here's some stuff made with Krita.

>>861 >>813 Very nice, very well done, the both of you

>>862 I'm the same guy. lel

>>849 Go ahead and post them, we're all friendly here. The most important thing to do at your stage is get a firm foundation with the basics. I would highly suggest starting with Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, it's a miracle worker and you'll see you're skillz coming through in no time. Starting out is always boring and/or frustrating, but what new skill isn't?

Im the long term I want to draw anime But I know Im a long way from that

I also practiced lines from the Draw from the Right side of your Brain workbook

>>849 >>856 >>857 For beginners it's essential to learn the so called "fundamentals". Many people mean slightly different things when talking about "fundamentals" though. I'd say the knowledge based fundamentals are: - Drawing in proportion (hand eye coordination; Being able to copy what you see.) - Shading (Understanding how light makes things appear three dimensional.) - Composition (How to lead the viewers eye through clever use of 'value contrast', 'color contrast', 'shape contrast', etc., the arrangement of different elements in your scene, besides other things.) - Color theory - And everything I've just forgot. Watch the stuff from proko once your hand eye coordination and arm muscles have developed a bit. https://invidious.snopyta.org/search?q=proko You can also listen to the podcast of Stan and Marshall. https://invidious.snopyta.org/search?q=proko+podcast

>>849 Oh, and if you're specifically worried about your faces and heads looking like shit, then watch the following: https://invidious.snopyta.org/playlist?list=PLtG4P3lq8RHHFhiyjXP4UT-yUo7pC13GQ I just recommend Proko, because that's where I've started and it helped me a lot. If you have major troubles applying what you've learned from those videos, then start copying things you like until your hand and mind get used to drawing.

Why is doing blook heads surprisingly difficult, and am I supposed to grind these heads until something clicks?

Should I invest in a Wacom tablet for getting into digital, or is Huion good enough? I had a small Huion one and and broke the stylus before getting much practice with it, but it felt pretty cramped and difficult to get to respond to pressure properly. I was already planning to get something with more surface area, but I don't want it to be something I need to do twice.

>>831 Huion is good quality, tablets and pens are well-built and should last a while. their drivers can be fucky but if I can get it working on ganoo+linoox you can get it working on wangblows.

Hey guys can someone draw /fascist/'s board tan, integralistchan being bleached by a white guy. Bonus points for multiple white guys and captions.

>>831 > Should I invest in a Wacom tablet for getting into digital, or is Huion good enough? What do you mean good enough? Huion is better than Wacom. KEK Nowadays with all that competition you can basically buy whatever you fucking want. lmfao

>>527 Not sure about the other anon, but working with physical mediums I just use the full piece of paper I have. I usually draw on cheap printer paper. I like that it is thicker, tougher, soaks up ink a bit better, and has a nicer texture compared to gray newsprint.

I saved these two examples a while back on drawing grass. Are there any other examples on how to ink foliage out there? It seems like resources on natural things like trees and rocks are kind of scarce.

>>654 This video seems like it'd be of help to you

>>656 I'm aware of this video, sorry I should have clarified. I only work traditionally, so i'm looking for relevant methods.

>>549 Do you happen to know any books that are similar to McCloud's but it emphasizes on manga?

>>575 throd. sculpture is certainly yuge benefit to being a top-flight 3D character modeler in my opinion.

>>576 I actually had to look up what "throd" is supposed to mean. Looks like it's an insult. Would you mind elaborating on how that's meant? If not, then that's alright as well. uwu

Always liked to draw as a kid. As i grew up i developed a dream/ambition to become a great artist, but later my motivation devolved to just wanting to impress some chick that frequented the same drawing studio, in the end my superior drawing skills didn't help me woo her, because i was a coward at heart, but i did get a love letter from some other chick that i didn't care about. Eventually my romantic interest moved to another country, i quit art and started wasting my time on imageboards, and doing drugs. After a wasted decade i got bored from being a degenerate and became a somewhat productive normie, now all that's left from my artistic past is this bump on my middle finger from holding the pencil.

I personally always used to doodle on the border of the notebook and always wanted to get into an arts career, but knowing that I would end up with no job with that I decided to get into STEM. I ended up going nowhere for four years and this quarantine finally made me get into it. Now the issue will be not throwing the towel.

Wanting to get a hobby, although I dont spend too much time since I prefer writing for the moment. And also wanting to learn the ability to draw anime

>>730 Something similar to that last pic

Anyone got a tutorial on the basics of drawing a human body? >inb4 meme tutorial

>>827 Shucks, we could've made it. Too bad.
