had a few boxes left from online shopping, figured I actually try and do something instead of being the same worthless thing.
Made a spice rack out of papermashe, figured I first ground it with white wall paint. The paint works great on my wall BUT NOT on this, holy shit what a mess. I had it dry for several days and it was still awkward. It also didnt work well to use it along side of acryl colors to save on white. Paint != Paint, that lesson is learned.
Since it was going to be a spice rack, it obv. had to be Dune themed. Figured I add some nice 3D effect with the lettering. Figured wrong.
"The Spice is vital" was done first and with cardboard cutouts. They were horrible to handle and gave no "depth", so I first tried to stack them wich didnt do shit, then just had them "sideways" to give it height. Never Again.
"For Space travel" was done with a mix of cardboard cut out with a lot of layers of tissue added to them. Just as bad. These two rows took me afternoon to evening each, roughly 5-8 hours. I was slow.
The letters at the top were last and I made them with tinfoil, much easier to work with. Since I had no experience I tried this "dry brushing" out on the first two words. As you may guess I gave up after the third word seeing that this 3D effect I hoped it would have simply wouldnt happen. Was happy about my colours though. Paid 30 i.o.u.'s for them and got a nice range of colours in small tubes. Also surprised about how much paint you can get out of a single drop!

I have a single figurine wich I tried to paint today. ~2:30 hours. The smaller abonimation was done with the leftover paint from my spice rack. The left one I tried today, completely messed up the water ratio for thinning. Did skincolour first since it was the brightest. Wanted to have a very thing black since her dress was lighting up - you can see the result, I could not prevent it. Messed up the eye with a misplaced stroke and tried to fix it with a cotton swab - does not work.
This is a occasion were my bad eyesight is actually nice. Blurry enough my brain adds and forms the "painting" to look passable. At this point let it be known if I dont wear glasses I actually see thing lights like the one on my router double.

After the spicerack I had so much glue left over i tried making some figurines out of papermache. It was fun, no idea about painting it but if its going to be like my Rack or Miku…

Painted one of the two today. Tried dry brushing again with black, didnt work as I hoped. Cleaned the excess but when i applied the varnish the black spread again, wich i couldnt see back then due to poor lighting - its much clearer in digital form. I did try to paint hands on him but the poor form made it look horrible so I coated it with grey again. Was hoping I could give the cloth some structure/color with red and blue so it wouldnt be just boring grey - used on of them flat pen nibs in hopes of getting a some even lines. A finer one would've maybe gotten me a better result.

Another papermasche thing. Too bad I cant do perspective and colours or else this might have turned out good. The digital picture doesnt do this "3D" any honours but it did turn out how I hoped it would, so that atleast is something.

And the last of my papermaschees I did was the >Black Door. Man my phone camera really ignores alot of the hues. Not that the actual thing is much better in reality, but a lot of the darker red hues around the middle of the whole thing are just ignored to this big red blob (I tried so hard there ;_;).

for the 2nd structure I made a final layer of common kitchen tissue, figuring the white wall paint would stick better and have an easier time painting after everything is dry. This was A LITTLE bit true, but after it dried the whole thing just bended.
While both things didnt turn out how I hoped, I did not regret spending the 2-3 days on them. I even have a slightly elated state of feeling if I look at them (Is this Joy? Does it get stronger if I actually produce something good?)

Today I tried this here little tutorial of doing a pathway (might have helped with the first structure) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksALsh6cLzk&t=936s
What a disaster! Made 2 attempts and tried to do it exactly as the vid showed me. Followed it including those 4 brushes and the same paint (except for the black were I used Umbra - wich he said I could, since black is such a fucking strong color to mix). Not sure why exactly, but I had ZERO control of the paint while mixing. I applied no pressure by taking the colours but as my palletes show, the brush always also left some paint on the "main drops", resulting in a huge loss of paint and disgusting colours. Frustrating as hell, wanted to do a free painting after that tutorial but after the ~2 hours I had enough for a day. I wonder if I actually learned anything from this…

look at that, it looks how it should look like. Sure you can do more details and the like, but the core is solid and nothing to be ashamed of.

Great job. The same thing goes to you: it "looks correct".

I stopped using them when I started gesture drawing people in real life. I might start gesture drawing my own pictures in a slideshow.
z-lib.org and libgen.rs are good sites.

Regarding books, I'd rec Hogarth's books on hands and his book on heads, Winslow's book on anatomy, and Bridgman's books.

ACHTUNG!
Had this little idea before going to bed. Regardless of how it turned out, it was really fun doing it.

I tried using less water today since the last few times it was all runy and some ugly drops went across half the picture. Today I had trouble doing details over painted areas. While I didnt pay attention to the others and I dont think I tried like I did here, did the less thinned paint lead to it? Is this why paint should be thinned, so you can overpaint it with other colours?

I was thinking I was going to try to get so good at straight-through animation that I would have no need for keyframes, but now I see that doing so I simply create the keyframes in my mind before I get to them, so I may as well draw keyframes.

my other stuff I did this week.
The first one is what I kinda was going for with my papermaschee construct. Also a bunch of clouds I tried following this nice ladys jewtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpoZQMdacJY
They came out worse than I expected so there is that. Cant wait to make my first passable picture.

My wet pallete also arrived! Can you imagine, I went to art stores in 2 different citys and they all had only dry pallettes! Maybe because they were more the general arts/creative hobby store who had more then just paint but still. This one I aquired over (((amazon))), its from one of those minature companys - Army painter or something. (((Amazon))) had others to offer but they were all imports and they would've costed me double than this one. Its pretty good, paint stayed fresh for several hours (instead of those 20 minutes).

you mean the paper things with the metal things with bent legs in the joints? No real opinion. When I was a kid I cut out paper figures I colored and played with them, no need for joints. I stopped that the first time I got modelling clay.

I'm mostly interested in animation to simply get better at normal drawing, creating 2d illusions of 3d things. Going to try animating anatomy soon, have full 3d understanding of it. But right now I'm just gonna animate boxes or something while I watch simpsons as in >>59489

I will soon get a better computer but here is me using winxp version paint of which I downloaded for win7 as they are pretty much the same thing but classic mode is much preferred by me. If I ever switch to Linux I'm getting that win9x theme on it somehow the way lainchan users do.

>tries winxp version

Nevermind. I used both win7 and winxp for this. I wish krita worked though.

Also I wish an asshole had not mistaken my graphics tablet pen for a dead marker. Using a touchpad on my cheap business laptop from 2009sish is a pain.

wageslaving again since a week so I am happy that I did a few in my off time.
Tried clouds again. Then I made the Guardian from a Boardgame, couldnt just get the colours - again. Atleast it kinda looks like it should look like (if I dont wear glasses and am sufficiently far away!).
Then felt bold this week and made something brash - resulting in something that belongs in the trash. Ran out of white in the middle of a painting, go figure.

How? Mh, I guess it was something 4 weekish ago? Just before my holiday I noticed I had quite a bit of cardboard lying around. When I was spicing a meal I also noticed I dont actually have a spice rack so I figured, why not be productive for a change and make myself a spicerack out of said cardboard. This escalated into having it covered and painted, for that I needed papermaschee. As a side thought I figuried I can make some 3D pictures with it and maybe a figurine? When I was done I had paint left and figured why not keep at it? Havent done any art in the past 20 years (has it really been so long since I finished school? Yes.

Is there an easy way to draw feet’s and hands or if just practice? I can do the exercises I found in the books of Hogarth or Loomis, but when I try to draw them in a position that is not in the books, most of the time I fail and when y try to draw something just from my mind I forgot them. Yesterday I try to draw my own art without reference, I tried all the afternoon. Most of the times I don’t know what in trying to do and the other times I forgot how to draw something. The last try was the least bad attempt. Maybe I should break my bad habit of trying to do things without sketching it first. This is normal in every person who tries to draw?

Wonder wich setting on my phone does this, pictures all seem brighter than they look like through that photo screen. Cant even see the difference between the sky and the clouds in pic #24.
I also reached a milestone: 25 pictures in total and 1 month of time invested with 1-3 hours per picture. A genius would paint somewhat good now. Someone gifted passable and someone talented would definetely show improvements… Getting to old and tired searching for my talents. Atleast its somewhat enjoyable, should be fun once I reach the ok stage.

Tried out L-Theanine combined with caffeine last night. (1 dr pepper and 200mg of l-theanine)

Makes me serene and allows me to focus on things. Very big difference. I highly recommend it. Enjoying it again right now. I did this excercise last night while using it (among other things I accomplished with my focus, e.g. writing script to change my tablet's mappings easily, modded Crusader Kings 2 a bit). Will post after I practice drawing for an hour right now. I'm studying hands right now.

another week another dump. Had 2 days were I wasnt on top of my time management. #32 was half finished while #34 was merely penceling (is there a difference visible between 34 and 33 where I only used grey?). #35 took me so long, >1 hour the sketch and >3 the painting - my speed remains abysmal. Couldnt quite translate the pose between the ref (bottom right corner) and the meme.

if i knew how to draw, if i had the tools and time, id draw things like this. i like tall, thin succubi. long and narrow necks, legs, arms and fingers. curvy shoulders. fluffy, curvy, > waist length hair. breasts, petite or very large (<= B, => E). always seem to draw eyes like these. i like modest clothes like simple dresses without much cleavage. and i really like illustrious from al, shigure from kc, and an-94 from gfl. i think thats the sort of thing id draw. i dont know if anyone would like it, but its how id do it. i like drawing and if i decided this is what ill do id put a lot of effort into it, and go so far as reading kleine rassenkunde for anatomic reference, and draw from my favorite artists, who arent few, but i feel more drawn to programming and math, the possibilities are much more infinite.

Lots of "Tips for Artists" say one should join a circle/group where you can post your stuff, get feedback and be encouraged to grow and stuff. Sounds like normalfagcentral, but is anyone in one? Are they really better than doing this alone?
Also is anyone doing NFTs? Apparently really low quality shit is being bought and sold.

 No.60025

Positive reinforcement is never a bad thing. Exposing yourself to other artists who you can relate to in personality and skill level can help to encourage you. I find it's easier to draw and stay motivated when I'm drawing for someone or a group of people who I like, such as wizards. Knowing they'll get a kick out of a doodle keeps me focused on it.

The "circle" these guides speak of doesn't have to be something official, regulated, or even organized. If you draw a character you like and post it to a media sharing social network like Deviantart or Twitter with the appropriate tags, people who search for that character/series/whatever will find it and be happy to share it. Then you look through their art and respond to the things you like of theirs. A mutual exchange of "good job" goes a long way.

>Are they really better than doing this alone?

You have to ask yourself this. If you find that you would appreciate some kind words about your art, and would like to make like-minded artists happy with kind words of your own, then yea exposing yourself to a group of fellow nice artists will help. If you resent people with every fiber of your being and don't want anyone seeing or being involved in your artistic adventures, then just avoid social networks all together and never upload.

finishing 1 each day becomes increasingly difficult as I use more and more time for each one - ineffectivley that is. I spent +2 hours on the pencil part of #50 and I am pretty sure I could've done it in <1 if I didnt do double the work and a bit smarter. The painting itself took me ~4-5 hours. Surely there is a lot of potential to do those faster.

ANYWAY.
I usually spent anywhere between 1-3 hours on the pictures between each 5. To make the equation easier, lets say I spent a minimum of 2 hours on this. 50x2 and this nets us with a MINIMUM of 100 hours. Milestone reached I guess.

Only managed 3 pictures this week where I have given up on the 3rd one. #56 looks like some elementary kid could've done a better job. While #57 has its fault - especially the lighting - I am really glad how that one turned out. I really like my tree. There are more nuances to it in reality than what you can see on the picture made with my smartphone so you have to trust me on that. I think I'm gonna seal it so I can keep it for the coming years. Nothing needs to be said for #58: I thought I challenge myself, challenged myself, failed and given up halfway through.

Hey Wizfriends, this is the first thing I've drawn in over 3 or 4 years probably. I just got a graphical tablet in the black friday sale as I want to learn how to draw better. Any tips on what I'm doing wrong and how to improve would be great!
I've been looking at tutorials online about the basics but it dosent seem to click in my head for some reason, could this be an autism related issue or is it like this for everyone until it does click. I only want to draw for fun and not as a profession, but part of the fun of learning skills for me is being able to impress myself with finishing something, like say a keyboard sheet music of a composition I like as thats also something I do, so do you think I could actually improve my drawing skills by continuing to draw somewhat bad pictures like this?

I'm not that good at drawing, but early in my life I read about how Leonardo Da Vinci made a study of anatomy in order to draw realistic animals. My autism makes me fascinated by how bodies are hooked up in terms of how muscles are connected, veins, arteries, nerve bundles, so I keyed in to that.

And even something as simple as like dragon ball Z art really just simplifies how the human body is put together with just some lines that angle over and flow in to each other. So once you learn the major muscles then you can let your autism drool all over medical anatomical drawings or weight lifting depictions, and then it starts to get easier to depict really complicated things like a shoulder or a hand or a forearm with just the main suggestions of where the muscles go and how it fits together. Or at least that's what worked for me with my shitting fucking around for fun and thinking bodies look cool.

Guess what, I too purchased a tablet, or a pen display as the box says. Krita 4.4.8 works in win7 - is what i'd like to say but I have no idea how to use it. All I did was using a pencil, airbrush, the eraser and this line stabilisation thingie. Atleast they work.
I wonder if its simply the new tool and my inexperience with digital that made my pictures look like this, but I am doubting it.

This week also just amounted to 3 paintings. The last one has to dry because I am planing on some finishing touches so you'll see them tomorrow. #61 might the best thing I'll ever create

Thanks for the feedback! I tried to draw a face on this one, as well as shading it too.
This may sound stupid but I think the thickness of the lines matters a lot with certain parts, like the chin area for example, this was my first time shading anything really but I think it came out OK. What do you guys think, maybe its a bit heavy handed in places and mostly just makes her look filthy instead of darkened in shade?
Also any tips on drawing faces? She looks kinda evil or scowling when I actually wanted her to have a softer more youthful face.

I tried a sunset with 59 and wasnt really pleased with the result. It looks worse in reality. With 60 I tried to apply composition or whatever that is called. I looked at the sample and tried to find what the picture tried to express. I found myself drawn to the light up pathway. So I tried to simplyfy the surroundings while highlighting the end of the path. The left looks more like some hill instead of that grassy huge bush. Still soooo much to learn… especially if you look at my 2 digital drawings.
ANYWAY. I promised you #61 and
so I deliver. If you look at the early parts of this thread you'll find my portrait painting of that reaction immage "general delight.png". One day before going to sleep it simply made click: the next step of delight would be absoulute delight. The connection was easy to make - general delight, and under absolute its easy to immagine an absoulute monarch. So I present you his royal excellency ABSOLUTE DELIGHT!

>I think the thickness of the lines matters
reading that reminded me of a vid I saw about painting. It handled soft and hard edges and what effect they have on a picture. While its for acrylic painting, the same principle applied to oil.

Back when I thought I didn't have any talent, somebody told me to draw the back of your hand. I mean, who knows the back of your hand better than you do? But I was in to dragons and shit so I drew claws instead because that was what fixated my imagination.

I started out just tracing my hand and then filling in where all the tendons and veins go. Veins are weird because they grow like roots rather than according to an anatomical plan. So I guess that's a good way to riff on what things could look like.

I tried to use thinner lines this time and I think it turned out much better. The soft and hard edges also seem really important as the drawing looked vastly different before I put the hard lines in around the darker areas, so thanks!
You're right about the grass looking like a hill, maybe its because it looks like a solid colour and not very translucent? Absolute Delight is amazing btw I expecially like the way its framed and how everything looks like it belongs together! Seeing you use those chocolate wrappers for texture reminded me of something I saw on a painting restoration programme where in historical oil paintings they would use a heavy amount of paint to give the painting actual 3d properties so thicker parts of the painting would cast shadows over itself, so maybe you could use that technique (or not) to gain further insight if you used oils?

I think my drawing today came out really well actually, but I am getting a little saddened by the fact all I can do is copy other peoples work and not really draw from my own imagination.

Almost every tutorial I saw underlined the importance of references. Pic rel is what I used for his excellency and #35 should be obvious. People said once we "build a visual library, drawing from imagination becomes easier. But references should still be the way to go for a very long time". I believe this might be closer to half a decade or longer. But this isnt school or any contest with thight rules - CHEAT CHEAT CHEAT. Just like your cirno, find something close of what you're imagining and apply her to that.

Practice is really the main factor, I've found. It's very important to do a mix of referenced drawings and drawings with no reference to go off, to avoid becoming reliant on having a reference. But it all comes down to doing it a lot, and always trying to get better. There aren't really any substitutes for mileage.

Yeah, pretty much. But like I said, it needs to be reinforced by frequently trying to get it right without the ref.

>Do you think learning anatomy is something I should be looking into as a beginner? Or is there something more useful right now for me like shapes or perspective?

The thing that helped me most was perspective, because it applies to everything you draw. Anatomy is subject dependent: learning a human's anatomy isn't going to help you much with drawing cats or cars, but perspective applies the same to a cat as to a human as to a car.

My recommendation is to just draw what you want for now. When you're starting to feel frustrated by your lack of knowledge, that's when you bust out the proko videos (a very solid resource, just try to ignore the humor). If you have a bit of skill in the manual side of drawing first that's when anatomical knowledge will actually help. A lot of people try to learn anatomy when they can't even draw a nice line or control their values, which makes it hard to tell when they get it right because it looks bad either way.
People often say that eastern artists tend to learn art faster, but I think what's more accurate is to say that eastern artists just draw a lot more. They'll doodle a lot as a kid, go into serious art education with a solid amount of drawing experience and thus can apply the knowledge they gain from education far faster than somebody who just picked up drawing. A lot of skill in art is the physical application of lines or value, and learning through trial and error what looks good and what looks bad. This is conjecture, but I'd say a lot of solid artists didn't really study anatomy or perspective consciously, they just drew a lot of stuff (often copying somebody who DID study) until eventually their drawings started looking "correct", even if they weren't really accurate to life.

not good as you can see on D4. That pendisplay and my main screen look different so imagine my shock when i compared pictures on both screens. I tried some settings but I cant get them to match, likely that my mainscreen is atleast 5 years older that this tablet, different manufacturers and that my GPU only has 1 DVI-E port so my pendisplay is connected through HDMI of my MotherB. This can be most clearly spotted on D4s skin: on the display it looks "flesh" tinty while on my main its closer to white… One setback after the other, the universe must be setting me up to something grand, right?

I would'nt say that your painting is bad wiz, I very much like the right half with the good gradient on the water and the blending of the yellow to the purple.
Your Miku looks good on my display, maybe you could tweak the setting of your monitor for a (janky) solution? Other than that, you seem to have more consistent lines and a good use of colour so I would say you've improved decently!

This week I managed two paintings, while #63 took me the longest. It was also completely without reference. Its too bad that my hand slipped with that purple, the smol wizard I put there is barely visible. Not to mention the vomit forest on the left. Atleast the grass in the front is kinda ok. Also what kind of self respecting wizard doesnt have a swiming pool?. #64 was simple enough, wanted to do a nocturne. I'm happy how the grass and shrubs on the ground turned out.
With my digital #5 i tried something I've been trying since the beginning as seen in these posts:

i dont know what to say other than you need to basically sketch everything out before painting. it should be proportional and virtually identical to whatever your painting. you use a scale divider to do this. you then just mix up color and literally hold it up in front of you and match it to something, then you apply that color on the canvas. it isnt technically difficult to achieve realism in painting by doing this, it just takes a very long time

If you're serious about wanting to get anywhere near good and not just fucking around with paint for shits and giggles, I'm going to have to be honest with you. You're bad and you should stop working with colors until you're solid in grey scale. Stop painting until you're half decent at drawing.
As a beginner you have none of the skills you need to tackle color and painting, and no experience and capacity to understand the issues involved. You have to start learning the basics, otherwise you will be stuck struggling with problems that exceed your current comprehension. You have to simplify the challenges you're facing and start training in a classic manner from the beginning, or you will remain confused and directionless forever.
Get a lot of cheap paper, basic pencils, kneaded erasers, sanguine sticks. Get one of these cheap fiberboard drawing boards with a clip. A3 is a good paper format for beginners, not too big not too small. Torrent Glenn Vilppu's instructional videos, learn from them (thepiratebay.org/description.php?id=7409774). Do it concurrently with drawabox.com exercises. Don't just blindly follow the instructions, you have to study and understand this stuff.
Make a training schedule and follow it. Don't get stuck on singular exercises when you feel you can't get a "good enough" result out of them. Complete the tasks you have scheduled for yourself whether you're satisfied with the results you're getting or not. Unfortunately drawing is an arduous and thankless skill to train, improvement can only be gained through repetition. Most of the resulting drawings will inevitably be disappointing and there's no way around it. The skills can't simply be improved by focusing 200% of effort on making single pictures and then spending forever trying to correct them. Finish the practice you start, note what needs improvement, and be ready to do it again tomorrow, as many times as it takes.
This is not a complete or universal "get good" plan, it's only a bare bones starting advice. When you earn some basic skill and knowledge you will start noticing these guides aren't covering everything you want to learn. There is an abundance of learning materials available and once you have an idea of what's what in the art training world you will be able to find more on your own and tailor your studying plans to your own needs. Until then you have to go back to the basics and train the classic way.

Copy simple drawings with few lines (stuff like manga or chibis) and focus on training your observational skill. What the wizard above me said is very good advice, but the observational part moreso (as one group of beginners on another forum is starting to realize). Once you're proficient in replicating what you see in two dimensions, you will transfer this skill to life drawing. This also trains very essential stuff like pen dexterity and control over proportions.

So I tried this shiny tree in a dark forrest I saw. My first attempt didnt turn out as I wanted it to, there was simply to much in the background. 70 was definetely an improvement. With 71 I tried to use komplementary colours to make the center tree shine even more but there I used to much stuff again and it simply looks busy overall. Less focus on the side trees would've been the right choice I believe.

Tracing might work for getting a sense of how a skilled artist's lines flow but it doesn't really build up your hand-eye coordination.

Pic related are some exercises for line and pen control.

I hear tattoo artists need to be incredibly good at transferring the designs into ink accurately, so you should get started on some kind of course with an academic drawing approach in order to get you observational skills up to par. Bargue is usually the go-to here.

Tracing is good. Studying the old masters line by line is really good, or other artists you want to emulate. After you are good at perspective or constructing 3d shapes, copying da Vinci is really helpful. I recommend going to a library where they have high res books of da Vinci's sketches.

Drawing straight lines is a different issue, and absolutely not necessary for avoiding chicken scratch.
The issue here is just being really inefficient with the lines you're using, too many lines going nowhere and doing nothing but confusing the forms. You don't need practiced line control to avoid chicken scratch, you just need to use longer more confident strokes. Here's the kicker: you're actually already doing it in that drawing. See those lines you're using for the upper arm sleeves? Do that for the rest of the drawing. You want to aim more for lines like that, and avoid the kind of lines you've got on the collar.

Pic related is an example of messy sketches that aren't chicken-scratchy. The lines all serve a purpose, either to help find the form, define the form or apply value (shadows). When something can be achieved with one single confident line, it is. The lines don't need to clean or straight, but they should be confident and readable.

How do you quantify improvement in drawing? This one turned out alright, but I'm still just copying. Are there milestones in drawing like there are in music (Grades 1-8+)? How do I actually create something somewhat-original (if thats even possible)?
I learn music from a teacher and its so much easier to tell if you're improving (faster notation reading, muscle memory of tricky phrases, ect), is this because I have a teacher to guide me towards these observations or what?

I'm not sure how I did this, but I tried using the selection and transform tools to made it more seamless but couldn't get any better than this.

>Do you have any tips regarding brush selection?
If you're not happy with the brushes you've got then don't hesitate to try new ones. Just don't spend all your time searching for the perfect brush, because it probably doesn't exist. Just take brushes you find nice to draw with and tweak the settings to your liking. Of course, first you've got to figure out what settings are to your liking, which just comes with experience and experimentation.
>The brush you use seems to not overlap and darken like the ones I've been using. I use the latest version of Krita if that matters (I don't know what program you use so no worries if you cant help)
I use CSP.
The black is a custom brush I nabbed when it was free, it's meant to emulate inking with a wood pencil. I dunno if it does a good job of that or not but I do find it fun to use, so I tweaked its settings to work in monochrome and now I use it as my primary inking brush. I'm just as comfortable with a default g-pen.
The sketching brush I use is just the default Real Pencil that I've set to be fully opaque and bumped the pressure up (so the "floor" of the pressure variation is higher, meaning there are no super thin tails). It does still get darker when overlapping itself, but that's because it's a texture that's overlapping.
I don't use krita but chances are if your lines get darker when you draw over them it's because the brush isn't fully opaque.

Thanks for the tips, its much appreciated! I tried a couple of drawings with the default pencil and changed settings a little (flow and opacity off), but run into some different problems like shading and using construction lines.
Usually I draw the image first with a default thicker pen, then turn the layer opacity down and trace over it with a finer pen tip (pic 2 rel) but this doesn't seem to work as well using pencil tips, so I might be doing something wrong.

On a side note I keep drawing using very little of the canvas, or drawing what I would consider to be proportional for the brush size only to have the image be either too big or too small (usually too small). I know I haven't explained that well but I don't know how to since I lack knowledge and experience.

He said he was using references, which leads me to believe that his drawings aren't stylized at all. This comes off more of a "Anime isn't wizardly because it's 3DPD" thing than you defending him looking at 3DPD.
>Also, you can't get good at drawing anime characters without studying anatomy.
Not true in the slightest! So much of anime, good anime even, is drawn with a complete disregard for basic rules of anatomy. Look at the stick figure characters of Ojamajo Doremi, the moeblobs in Binchou-Tan, or the great varieties of character styles in anime such as Kirby of the Stars. There are many artists who distort the human form in their own unique way to the point where knowing anatomy will contribute to reproducing those styles only marginally.

And no, one does not need to study the intricacies of, and certainly not REFERENCE real people to get good at drawing humans, especially when drawing in a simplified animatable style. One who walks the world with an attentive eye already has an understanding of human form stored within his psyche (it's instinct even!). By attempting to bring these deep-rooted understandings of the human body to the conscious artistic brain through trial and error - by drawing with imagination alone until he sees his inner vision reflected well in his art - does one get better at drawing humans. I dare to say that to study from art itself is even more applicable than studying from real 3DPD, as that will teach you nuances and caveats of many styles, the technical production aspects, and the kino of composition and framing from the perspective of static art.

It's fine if you just want to draw childish cartoon characters, but most anime and manga characters will be close to realism in their anatomy, and to draw the simplified forms competently you need to know how they actually work first.

>>61107
Why are you saying such rude things? I'm not going to reply to those parts.
>You don't know every muscle and bone in the human body and how they look in different poses by "instinct"
I mentioned before that the importance of viewing the world attentively. Not directly studying static images or videos and trying to remember what parts of the body look like as if one was trying to remember the lyrics to a song. Rather just the act of passively appreciating the shapes and textures of things in reality. I meant to emphasize the importance of viewing reality in terms of simple shapes, and paying special attention to things you see that you may wish to draw in the future. I didn't want to drag in to the realm of unwarranted advice though, but I'm glad you gave me a chance to explain. The instinct I refer to is one that's been altered by an artistic mindset. After studying from life and art for so long, you'll come to develop a subconscious understanding of how things ought to look when translated to 2D. An instinct to recognize patterns, shapes, and particularities of objects is present in every man who walks around with his eyes open. To become an artist is to figure out how to simplify these visual properties, deducing them to a set of simpler rules. It's through drawing from imagination alone that you can pull from your mental catalogue of what things look like to you and learn to reproduce that knowledge to paper. If you begun drawing something right now that you see regularly in real life, but never "studied" in the way that you propose anatomy should be studied, you may be surprised to find that you can draw it quite well. If something about it looks off, you can lay down some light lines and random shapes and eventually you'll see something that your human instinct of scrutinizing and recognizing aspects of everyday things in your life recognizes as correct, putting you back on the path to reproduce it through drawing. It's such a great feeling to be puzzled by why a sketch looks off, and then after thinking and doodling on it, suddenly coming to realize why it doesn't click as the real deal. Like figuring out a riddle or puzzle.

I encourage all artists new and old: If you wish to draw something which you've never drawn before, then just try to draw it. Don't look up pictures of it or guides on how to piece it together from blocks, just jump in. If you've seen enough of it in your lifetime, you'll eventually get it right by erasing and redrawing individual pieces that look "out of place". If you haven't seen it much, then do your best anyway and then when it's time to look at images of it, you then compare how the reality differed from your understanding of the object. This will help you to remember what it looks like for future reference. A man never forgets times he was critiqued, even by himself, so if you can critique yourself by comparing what you did with what you should have done, you will never forget what you learned.

>Post your awesome sketches that you learned to draw without ever looking at a reference

Are you the same man who's been saying something along these lines every time someone's work is critiqued in any way? I would sure hope so. My only post in this thread so far has been >>61074 , and it may be my last if even trying to give advice on how to improve warrants such an angry response. The waters of the draw thread have changed and I'm glad there are other similar threads on Wizchan free from such hate. It's not a great sketch by any stretch, but I referenced nothing for the style, anatomy, or framing. because of this I am proud of my work as something entirely of my own. I did refer to an official settai sheet to know what this succubus's outfit and hair looked like, as I had not seen this anime in a long time, and I really needed her to look as she does because this character was requested by another wiz. It took me about an hour of work to get to that point. If I were to ballpark I'd say I have about 500 hours of drawing, mostly anime and scenery.

This… is a completely, horribly mislead view. I'd even dare to say factually incorrect. Even super deformed or hyperstylized cartooning (referring to all forms of simplified illustration/animation) is based on the real human form, or at least based on something that is based on the human form. If you're studying anime then you're just studying people who studied people who studied from life. Layers removed, yes, but even something like Doremi is based on the same knowledge as Akira. It's foolish to willingly ignore this for the sake of ostracizing wizards who seek knowledge and power, even if it involves studying the unwizardly.

And there it is. We could only assume your beliefs were of the angered, insecure normortal variety from your tone alone, but you've just spelled it out for us in plain English. You believe that a wizard doing things for himself, entertain his own ideas through strictly creative expression, disregarding 3DPD in the process - is normalfaggish. This implies that you believe the true goal to drawing is to impress others, and if you're not drawing only for other random people and their attention, then there's no point in drawing at all. You opinion is revealed and everything you suggested thus far has been disregarded. You are truly an outsider and I thank you for so bluntly admitting to such, and for giving us the opportunity to explain why you and your type are so wrong.
>but don't poison the minds of others
Again I'll iterate: So far I've suggested that any man can draw. Those who have payed more attention to the world with their eyes will be able to draw more from memory. I noted the importance of drawing from memory and imagination before anything, so the man can see where his current skill level is, and from there focus on what he needs to improve on. If explaining to wizards here that 'Yes, you CAN draw, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, please start!' is poison to you, then you truly are a mundane normalfag who wishes ill upon us all. If you belive you can't draw, that's fine and I'm sory my advice went through you, but don't suggest other men can't because YOU can't. It comes of as very insecure. You didn't fall for the aphantasia meme… Did you?
>Pride cometh before the fall.
A wizard should be proud of anything he creates with his own hands and mind. Even normalfag males should. Am I not allowed to be proud of my own creation because I made it without tracing someone else's work? Are you proud of yours? And if not, then why not?

>Nude photos meant for study aren't the same thing as posting sexy succubi to jerk off to.

I notice you didn't make any /meta/ thread on this so I'll entertain you here.
If nude photos can be posted because they were used as a reference, then any porn could be dropped so long as the poster claims it was the target of his copyings. Would you want half of the drawing thread to be filled out with landwhales and succubi? There's a post in his thread (which I'm now certain you haven't actually read through). >>59664 shows that the image on the left has 3DPD, but it has been spoilered. I was the one to report it. Only the mods can spoiler individual images of a post so this alone gives insight to the policy of posting reference photos. You couldn't even be wise to suggest would-be porn poster spoiler their 3DPD, which too speaks volumes of your understanding of Wizchan's functions and positions on the matter.

>Am I not allowed to be proud of my own creation because I made it
The problem isn't with being proud of your work, but with being too proud of your perceived innate ability to try and actually learn. You're crippling yourself with misplaced pride. You don't respect the art form and only care about spraying your ego jizz to your mediocre talent.

When it comes to a hands-on activity like drawing, it is generally a good idea to be skeptical of advice from people who write long treatises about such-and-such, yet fail to produce outstanding work upon request. The true test of their methods and theoretical knowledge lies in their work.

To all who are interested in drawing anime/manga: the best Japanese artists, like most excellent artists, have all carefully studied from life at some point, and done so on a consistent basis. Very few exceptions here. I've looked up the backgrounds of some of my favorites.

>>61106
>And no, one does not need to study the intricacies of, and certainly not REFERENCE real people to get good at drawing humans, especially when drawing in a simplified animatable style
Complete and utter bullshit. Full-on bullshit. I suggest you read an interview from an animator, or look up the curricula of animation schools, or just browse the Twitter feeds of artists who post their studies, or open a how-to-draw anime book (the Japanese ones, which I seriously doubt you've ever bothered opening), or open an animation textbook, etc…

Rules for me but not for thee? Not sure which one of you is the guy, but to him: Why have you not posted your work yet? You asked me to submit mine to validate my claims, and I linked to it. Why have you not done the same? Go on, post your work to prove that drawing figures from a direct reference will produce something good. What do you have to be afraid of? This is the drawing thread dafter all, so draw!

>prove that drawing figures from a direct reference will produce something good
You were arguing that drawing from reference is just forbidden according to your truwizardly code, but now you're going to argue that it doesn't even work, and it's better to look at a copy or draw from memory? You realize that those are just lower resolution and less reliable references, right? Shouldn't you be drawing pure abstraction instead of cute succubi if you hate references and 3D so much?
>You asked me to submit mine to validate my claims, and I linked to it
You have invalidated your fanciful claims with your drawing which had glaring mistakes, and that's enough. If you want validation for the standard method, look at any artist that draws humans well. You're the one arguing against common sense by advocating learning how to draw by referencing a memory of the real thing, or a copy of a copy, like a fucking retard, instead of just looking at the real thing, and only because you think it makes you the wizardest wizard of all. What a joke.

I can see that you have talent by looking at your drawing, so stop wasting it, humble yourself a little and learn to do it properly, using every tool at your disposal instead of crippling yourself for idiotic reasons. No one cares about how epically wizardly and against 3D you are, as long as you meet the requirements.

wow wtf happened here?

Anyhow, another busy week with little to no free time. My little sisters birthday is coming up - she is 16 years younger than me, imagine that - so I got her a few things she asked for. I also wanted to give her a painting and since we watched that fucking sponge - and still watch the first movie like yearly together - I figured she'll get something from me that belongs in the trash. I made one >>59591 like 4 months ago so I'd like to think I atleast dont make all the same mistakes. I belive the middle one turned out the best.

Amazing Miku wiz! I may be biased but this is my favourite panting you've done so far. The detail and values you've used I think are top notch; great work!
How come you gave up on the digital one? it looks like it was going well so far, if its the shading that was putting you off try using 100% opacity brushes and drawing the outline of the shade then filling it in. That's what I've been doing and I think its working so far, I also use separate layers for the shading/colouring and combine them when finished if that helps at all.

Block in the big shapes and colours first, try to simplify, imply the shapes, use brush as a tool for shaping instead of only applying paint, do more then one layer, highlights last
