It's that time again!

>>1039 >Why this place is dead? The BO seems to have moved the posters to blacked.gov, back in the day this board was moderately active but they never returned other than (probably) one of their posters who gives feedback once in a while. Only one anon has kept things alive in the practice thread for some months now, i started uploading a week ago to keep some company. >common folks prefers to post on /ic/ cancer Common folk is becoming more common than not, the massive PPH is a strong incentive but consistence quickly goes out of the window in terms of critique and such. And the ones who can withstand a more slow experience can do so but if they all are ID'd, so Shitscord ate that cake too. The upside to all of this is that the anons here can be trusted almost blindfolded due to them being ideologically stronger/more compatible for the sole fact they are here to begin with.

>>1040 That's fair I guess. I just want to avoid art school and (expensive for me) feedback from paywall artist to gain the critiques, I guess I gotta bite that cookie then.

>>1041 >I just want to avoid art school >feedback/gain the critiques If you go the route of "outsider" artist, or someone who "made up" his own style and doctrine, you can easily be identified among the rest of the people if you refine it with your own tastes enough, plus you avoid those things you mentioned. Thing is solitude is a bitch though, one can never gauge how good or unique we are going because we are used to seeing our own stuff. For that i don't know what to recommend other than bite the bullet and go hermit until you are moderately satisfied with your work... but there's one thing for sure, you'll probably double your chances of success if you can apply those drawings onto a good story/joke/conceptual narrative so scriptwriting/world-building is as crucial as having a pretty picture.

>>1041 I'll give you a proper critique on some high effort work. I'm not regularly online, but after a week, you can probably be assured you've gotten a proper critique. Being cut off from the internet for days or weeks does wonders for you productivity. ^ o ^

>>1039 Because, like in the days of olde 8ch, 80% of every board's users are lurkers. Porn boards and dump boards can live like that, but in places like this that require active participation, there's not much point without an active userbase. Also what >>1039 said, the BO moved operations. I don't really get what the point of that was, but if there was more community support here, I'd prefer this one. I suppose he thought people would be more comfortable using markchan. At least neither one is /ic/. t. lurker of both

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

to draw my nice dreams, nightmares and my ancestor guardian that has been passed down to me, protecting me from a personification of dark entity sent by envious people to ruin our life by the service of a witch. you can see him and her(the devil) if you're my boyfriend when you sleep.

to share my stories and make my ideas come to life

Practiced some arms.

>>1033 Really neat structure lad, keep it up

Forced labor drawings, improvised a bit but i missed several line thicknesses and forgot to align heights at times. The journey continues even when i formally haven't started with the books.

The whole page I've been working on. I think I'm getting the hang of the basic skeleton poses.

Hello /loomis/, I arrive at your humble board to officially announce the GCUP! The GCUP will be an exhibition tournament between boards of the webring that represent nations of the world, and will be contested under usual ICUP rules. In addition, we'll also be hosting friendlies for non-national boards/teams as part of the festivites. Friendlies can be played under normal rules, or, if you choose, under alternate (meme) rulesets that will be decided closer to the Cup's kickoff. If you would like to participate, head on over to the pinned thread at our board on Cafe. The event is set to begin February 13th, 2021. Look forward to having you there!

Gestures, yo.

>>74 Design a gun! Image spoilered because I don't want to influence potential replies too much.

>>939 >Design a gun! Is that you Shlomo Goldbergstein? Looking for free concept art againt?

>>944 You've cracked the code again, goy. Don't expect it to happen so easily again, or to gain anything from this victory, considering all art you post here is done for free. What's the point? Bring it up on the meta thread if its a issue or something.

>>939 Sorry friends but this isn't a drawing from here, you should remove it from the ourobooru.
