"/ic/ - Artwork/Critique" is 4chan's imageboard for the discussion and critique of art.
>Publicly editable rentry for CSP assets.
https://rentry.org/CSP_materials
Feel free to contribute brushes you have purchased. Assets that have been deleted from the store are also welcome to be uploaded here.
>CSP assets store wishlist.
https://rentry.org/Brush_Wishlist
>"How do I request brushes?"
1.) Please check the CSP rentry and encoded external rentry first before requesting them in the thread.
2.) If they aren't there, then you should ask the thread.
3.) Post a link of the brushes you're requesting. It will make it faster for the anons interested in purchasing them for the thread.
>"What brush does this artist use?" / "What brush looks like this?"
1.) Search "brush (from:artisthandle)" or "assets.clip-studio.com (from:artisthandle)" on twitter if that's where they post mainly. Make sure to set it to the Latest tab to see the artist's tweets. Or use Nitter.
2.) Search brush posts on their Pixiv Fanboxes/Booth/Patreon. Then try to see if it's on kemono or archives.
3.) If none of the searches work, then ask here.
>"My CSP is cracked so I can't use the asset store"
As long as you log into the asset store it works even on cracked copies.
>"Are there other brush sets aside from the CSP ones?" / "Has this brush set been uploaded before?"
Check the archive. Chances are if it's popular some anon has uploaded it already.
>"What brush is in the OP picture?"
Brush in the OP pic is in the CSP assets rentry. (ID:1997792)

Why you should not trust youtube shills:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH1WEYF8rlA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Twy5Wo8m284
Do not worry pressure levels. 1024 is more than enough.
Remember to ignore all chinese shills. They often post paid twitter promos from random artists. It's all shilling, ignore it.
Recommended tablets:
>Screenless:
Used Intuos 3, 4, 5, Pro, One by Wacom
>Display:
Small (10-11"): Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite
Medium (12-16"): Samsung Galaxy Tab S8/S9 Ultra, used iPad Pro 12.9" Gen 1-5
Large (22"+): Cintiq 22, Cintiq Pro 27
Avoid:
>XP-Pen, Huion, Gaomon and every other Chinese brand making Wacom imitations
Poor build quality, pens with wavy lines, wobbly nibs, broken tilt, issues registering light pressure, terrible customer support, uncalibrated displays. All Chinese brands have the same problems. Check out the webm to understand how bad they are.
Do not be fooled by myths like "Chink companies are just as good as Wacom now" - they've been saying this for over 10 years, nothing has changed.
Chinese companies have also been proven to shill on 4chan. You will see dozens upon dozens of posts in this thread by a chinese schizo shill, who will either be bitching about the OP, gaslighting as a Wacom fan, making pointless spam posts or giving terrible advice (like recommending Huion). Just ignore and report him.
>New iPads
Massively overpriced and overhyped.
>Microsoft Surface Pro
More optimized for palm rejection than good quality drawing. Wobbly lines when drawing slow and straight.
>Cintiq 13-16"
Completely outclassed by the Galaxy Tab Ultra & iPad
>Cintiq Pro 16, 24, 32
Overpriced, QC issues, loud fans, proprietary mount interface
>Lenovo
Worse than Samsung in every way.

The general thread for Manga / manga-styled comic-making, manga-style illustration and related comic work. That said, everyone is welcome here.
Support each other and talk about your work or the work of others that excites you. Inking, character design, paneling / layout, writing, planning, and other discussions are all welcome.
Post resources, questions, in-progress pages, breakdowns of other works, etc. If a work is not yours, credit the maker (unless it's fucking obvious like a full page of One Piece or something).
Thanks to everyone for making /mmg/ a level-headed and helpful place. Remember, drawing and making comics and manga are difficult endeavors, and we're all in this struggle together.

**Strive for quantity AND quality.**
Anime Studying:
>Copy anime references exactly and draw them from memory. Use illustrations, screenshots, anime figures, 3D models, etc.
>Don’t copy recklessly. Use construction, color theory, and other fundamental concepts to rehearse a drawing process that you can later easily manipulate for original artwork.
>Post all of your anime studies. Post even when you’re told not to. Create an art community that actually draws and improves together instead of just talking about it.
>Number your attempts and link to your previous posts.
>Critiquers should lead by example by posting their studies.
General Anime Style Discussion:
>Questions about achieving certain styles/techniques/compositions etc.
>Drawing methods, study habits, resources, tutorials, tools, software, etc
>Be specific and try to post a sample of your study attempts before asking for help.
**Draw copies from good anime styled references to mindfully up our mileage, internalize appealing aesthetics, and learn from each other’s processes and knowledge.**

Previous thread >>7592159 I think I got today lucky where I switched between left and right drawing modes in the middle of making all my assets for today.
So I decided to show you a little art lesson.
The diference between how the left side draws and how the right side draws. Why so many masters in drawing draw really complex and skilled stuff and overdetailed stuff when they're 20 but end up drawing like the doro meme when they reach 40? Anyone take adderal and draw whats your experience like did it help you? >be commissioner
>work with several artists over several years
>always pay up front if asked, always tip like thirty percent, always make sure to express how much I love their work
>without fail, a few years go by and they stop answering messages
>some even leave the current paid for commission half finished
What fucking gives? I will pay you assholes to draw large woman as fast as you can deliver it. I thought you all wanted to make money, so why is it so hard to paypig for you retards? No, really. Every time I get a good artist I want to do repeat work with, they never last longer than the fifth or sixth commission before leaving me on read. And I'm just asking for muscular woman with large tits! It’s not even a fetish!

What is /ALT/?
If you're looking for a place to post your cartooning then you've found the right general. This is /ic/s 1st and only merged hub where both Eastern and Western stylization can coexist peacefully, hence the double title.
>Rules & Guidelines
(1) Any form of cartooning is welcome; so submit and receive feedback from others. (2) Please resize your images before posting. (3) Share your knowledge and (4) Remember to not be afraid of asking for critique. Most importantly, keep discussion at a civil level.
>I came for anime. Why does the image OP say cartoons general?
To distinguish from the anime study thread (janitor supported). Please post your studies there and personal work goes here.
------
>Community Resources
>Tag the OP if you want a resource included here. General dedicated to posting and discussing art of either:
1. Manmade objects, vehicles, tool, weapons etc. (of any kind and any historical era, as long as they fall in the ballpark of "technology") and fictional derivatives of such
2. Objects,vehicles, creatures etc. that aesthetically fall into the visual space of mecha/robot/artificial/cybernetics etc. regardless of level of realism.
Helpful to mention the level of realism, if any, you are taking into account in the art. Everything about the art process looks too fucking difficult and impossible for me to do.
>Got art books
>Drawing tablet
>Got guides
>Can't understand or follow any of them
Even just the idea of using the motions of my shoulders for drawing instead of scribbling lines with my fingers, or just making any good lines like this in general, looks too difficult for me. I want to draw, but I don't know what to do.
Back due popular demand!
Welcome to /INT/ - Intermediate Draw!
Please post in this thread if you're above /beg/ beginner but not yet ready for the big boy's club in the advanced draw thread.
Try to reflect upon your art and what you could improve upon. Be self-critical!

the Dunning-Kruger Effect:
Dunning-Kruger effect, in psychology, is a cognitive bias whereby people with limited knowledge or competence in a given intellectual or social domain greatly overestimate their own knowledge or competence in that domain relative to objective criteria or to the performance of their peers or of people in general.
Essentially, the Dunning Kruger effect explains why incompetent people are unable to see that they’re incompetent.

As a thread opening question, let's talk about colored pencils: What are your favorites and do you prefer Oil or Wax based if you tried both? What are the best solvents to use for blending? Should you use solvents or are blending tortillions enough? Or just your fingers? Talk about it here. Publish artistic poses package and other sites, they can be artmodels possepace, New Masters Academy etc, Asians packs are welcome, as super pose, nude pose, art pose, etc., everything that is artistic for references are accepted.
Please do not publish porn softcore of met art pages, femjoy, shots, etc., to download those things go to URL Galleries.net, there are all the complete softcore packages, I repeat those are not references packages.

Discuss brushes, artists, art styles, line methods, texturing, inking, shading and colouring
This thread is intended for artists who cannot paint. However, lineart with painting methods are welcomed Been slacking since May and I wanna hit that beginner-to-intermediate level in the next 6 months. How much should I be drawing daily to improve like 1 hour, 2, or 3? What do you think works best? It's time to grind fundies anon.

I didn't see a lot of progress but at least I can draw better circles now Are anime concepts artists much better to study from than mangakas if I don't want artwork that's limited by weekly deadlines? post works that inspires you Paradoxically, by denying the world, you obtain the world.
The 'inner' could unfold, but that lies in another's will. Saw some of this guy's paintings yesterday at a museum. Today I learned that he died exactly 116 years ago, on June 14. He was only 30.
RIP Mr. Wojtkiewicz. previous >>7521932
If you're on a break after drawing and feel like sharing what's on your mind about what you're working on, the industry, things that excite you about art, or anything that frustrates you about drawing or the process of art then grab a cup of water and chill out here.
Remember to keep discussion on-topic as much as possible. Has anyone studied Ron Lemen's lectures? He's been doing complete series on his youtube and it seems like a nice way to get into traditional life drawing knowledge How do we solve this dilemma? sure it's easy but you end up skipping the fundamentals of what a face should look like.
even if you get really good, there's no way to tell the difference between your oc and someone else's oc, this is even more noticeable when you start getting into the realm of digital art. Why do troons always do this ffs every fucking fandom that's why no one can enjoy anything
Don’t mind this. I’m just ranting to get this off my chest.
I consider myself an artist. I genuinely enjoy drawing (most of the time). But over the past five years, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve become increasingly obsessed with making everything look perfect. It’s gotten to the point where 90% of my work is left unfinished because I get caught up in the tiniest details. I need every sketch to match exactly what I see in my head, and when it doesn’t, I get overwhelmed and incredibly frustrated.
I know it probably sounds childish, but I feel really lost. I used to love drawing. I could sit for hours, just letting ideas flow, not caring how the final product looked. But now? I can’t do that anymore. Even if I somehow manage to finish something, I just end up feeling disappointed and discouraged when I look at it.
I completely lock myself into the specifics, and it’s slowly killing my passion. What makes it worse is that I know this mindset is a problem, but I can’t seem to stop. It’s obsessive. I once spent 13 hours on a single sketch, constantly erasing and redoing it, chasing this impossible standard of “perfect” only to end up upset and giving up.
Then I look at my friends. They just draw. They don’t care if the anatomy is off or if the lines are messy. They play with poses, colors, whatever they want. And I’m left feeling envious. I feel like I’m never good enough, and it pisses me off.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not angry at my friends, I’m angry at myself.
I’ve tried taking breaks. I’ve watched countless YouTube tutorials, tried all the exercises they recommend. Nothing really helps. I don’t know what to do anymore. i drew for 1.5 years, others in that time who started later than me got better faster, why did i fail? why couldnt i draw?
any help pointing me in the right direction is appreciated!

And a big thank-you to all who participated in last-last-last month’s /icic/—it was a very special collaboration.
Now let’s see what June has in store~ >This art was good enough to get published and become a franchise
You have no excuse Once upon a time,stuck in a waiting room, I drew a random picture in a new sketchbook I brought to kill the time. It was a demon head, and then I thought of Why it was there. And spawned this story,taking a decade and 180 strips later it is only two thirds told.
It was very rough in the beginning, unplanned, unconceived,a haphazard journey that my sleepy mind oozed onto each page,and only after 30 strips in was taken seriously. And I watched the story grow.
I will share this with you all.
***DISCLAIMER***
These are "storyboards",never meant as Product,but wound up on my website because I had nothing else to upload. I will "translate" the chicken scratch wriwhere neccessary, and toss a few tidbits of facts for consideration. So,any and all crabs who decide to deride the story will be simply stating their retardation by doing so.
With that said,enjoy. how many times do I need to watch this video before I can draw anime girls?

I can't "just draw", i don't know what to. No i can't quit i must learn how to draw. I spend all day thinking about drawing but most days end up not even drawing for 5 minutes. Is there something wrong with my brain? There must be a solution to this. I want to give up on art but I keep coming back hoping to get rich. I don't enjoy my time anymore. What should I do?

I hope you all doing well
Btw I'll be posting my daily practice here (I hope I can keep up)
So feel free to criticize and give me advices
Today subject was leg anatomy I accept any criticism, I am still trying to improve. Don't let anyone tell you that you need more appeal because it boils down to you having to learn this artsytle as it has mass appeal and this is unfortunetley the shit that tingles retards brains...lame, fake and gay How many frames should pixel art sprites use for walk cycle animations? How detrimental is rough sketching for concept art? What is your guys' opinion on this? It looks fucking weird. The pose is very unreadable It looks so disjointed. Her head, the position of the shoulders, the width of the torso, the girth of her leg. Either way, I'm surprised they let this be the official cover art. At first I thought that it might have been AI generated, then thought maybe it was just a fuckup in post, but then I realized, that these characters just wear bulky jackets. I think it looks bad, am I alone on this? What separates /ic/ from being able to render like this? Photography is better than other visual arts because it’s as true to life as anything else, even more true to life than memory or eyesight. A photograph cannot lie; it is a testament, it is evidence, it is justice. It bears witness.
Paintings require interpretation of the artist’s inner feelings and mind. Sculpture requires transformation of bodily energy. Drawings are similar. Does this count as obesity/fat art? >join art discord
>better than everyone day 1 from relentless studying and learning over and over
>nobody talks to me, or wants to be friends
How the fuck do I win? akirelll, where did they go? one of the best artists this board gave birth to I'm feeling tempted to buy Noah Bradley's Art Camp 1. Has anyone seriously studied this course? How good did you get from it? How good should your art be in order to have a chance at getting your comic published
No i wont self publish I think my art’s starting to get worse? Though it could just be me getting anxious about being surrounded by objectively better artists this summer, however I’m unsure Theme: Underwater

Last thread: >>7608229 All I can find is pic related; week 3 of Expressive Characters with Wouter Tulp Post reference showing the same thing from different angles. These are two months apart from each other. Made by some Twitter neet. Anyone can improve. Stop whining and go draw. how can I make money with my art? Everyone tells me to start with furry commissions but I don't know where or how. I need money for college. pic is mine btw How do I actually force myself to draw? I've been wanting to draw for nearly 2 years now and have barely made any progress towards that goal. I've only done one Loomis face like 2 years ago and haven't done any exercises or line work since then. I've been trying to get myself to draw, but all of it looks too complicated and exhausting for me. I've tried multiple different strategies, but they never seem to work. I've tried forcing myself to draw, but can only make myself draw circles for barely 30 seconds before stopping and looking at my phone again.
I've got a couple of drawing books and a drawing tablet for my PC and barely touched them.
My shaky hands fuck up every drawing I make, and I can barely do lines without fucking them up. I can't use my shoulder, I only feel good using the motions of my fingers. ITT 00s street/graffiti style art and inspo
Both artists actually from the era, and throwback artists welcome
>There is one thing not to do, and that is simply to drift along with the daily routine, making no extra effort. You will soon find yourself middle-aged, having done nothing more than routine jobs, and being little farther along than you were years ago. The extra effort is the difference between the great mass of mediocre artists and the comparatively small group of very good ones.
>And in Art, study can never stop. You will find sketches galore in the studio of the good man, with the paint quite fresh. The mediocre artist's sketches are old and dusty.
>I have seen so many middle-aged artists still hoping, whose samples are frayed at the edges, and thumb-marked with time. Sometimes it has been a matter of years since they sat down and actually did something to give their hopes any promise. They are plodding their lives away at something they hate, and doing nothing about it. These are the men who never seem to have had a chance. The truth is, they never seized a chance.

TRUE DYNAMIC SKETCHING edition
This is a thread for those who want to go through dynamic sketching as a group in an effort to improve drawing skills starting from the very fundamentals. Here we share the tedious grind, crit and encourage each others.
Please specify the week you're on and if it's dynamic sketching 1 or 2 when posting your work.
>What's Dynamic Sketching?
A class by Peter Han that focus on improving draftsmanship, construction and design. It is intended for beginners, but the second class can be useful even for /int/. It covers a wide variety of subjects, but not figure drawing.
>Where to get it?
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:0aebc0f02e6c179b62e04c69af3e5adee3abee12&dn=IC-STUDY
\Course\Form and Construction\
IMPORTANT REMARK, for those who want to get the most out of this course:
There is an important distinction between SEEING the forms, and actually UNDERSTANDING the forms. When you see the forms, you are simply drawing from observation, which is what I've been doing, and I believe everyone in this and past threads. When you understand form, you can replicate it from your head, rotate it without reference, draw it in certain perspective, etc. This is the reason why the redesigns are so important and should never be skipped; they are in fact the essence of this course. Naturally, seeing comes before understanding. This is why I will be doing yet another run through dynamic sketching, first finishing the course in the way I have been doing (i.e. observational drawings mostly, with the redesigns), then doing true dynamic sketching.
I realized it by his comments in this video, at the given timestamp:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75apahP3Mvk&t=4664s [Embed]
the part where he says to not look at the finished ones, but at the primitive ones is what made me realize it.
It's a long road, but it's worth it. If you're willing to put in the hours, this course will teach you how to draw.
Mess up a lot, get that mileage in, but most importantly pyw What website should I post my drawings to if I want people to actually see? I want to build a following by posting cute girl pictures and maybe make some money along the way. I don't care how long it takes because I will win.
Where on the internet have you seen the most success? Got any general survival tips or strategies for someone starting from scratch? Why do successful non-japanese patreon artists stagnate/regress so badly? Are they just in it for the paycheck? I'm not going to use Bforartists again. Imma go back to Blender, instead
I was making a fanart of STALKER, and decided to try Bforartists cuh ChatGPT told me it has an easier UI. Although it's right, it's also less optimized than Blender itself (which means, i couldn't do very much desu) If some random kids with internet connection could learn to animate, made a studio and an indie anime, why can't /ic/ make one?

and related to that, if anyone has recommendations for a decent small-ish shoulder bag for one's art supplies, please do share. Is Tetsuya Nomura a good artist? Guys I need help on what I can improve, I lack in anatomy and faces in a semi realistic way.
I need an honest opinion and feedback, no troons no begs no faggotry. I just need help because I don't think I am good enough to start selling commissions in a serious non beg level.
I have four cats to feed prices continue to go up.
This is two months worth of study by coping (not tracing) Aleriia's work. I also printed some beg bane:
Creative Illustration
Drawning the Head & Hands
Fun with Pencil
Successful Drawning
Figure Drawning for all its worth
But it has only been 4 months with the books, I mostly skimmed haven't had the time to read and read again and practice by the books.
I never had the chance to sit down and study art (for real) so please any mentoring and guidance will help tremendously I feel like an eternal beg.

You can throw in composition intermittently, including negative space control It all just boils down to a fucking popularity contest For those who don't know, Pixiv (one of the largest - perhaps the largest - art host site in the world) has been hosting a yearly event since 2008 where the hosts create a theme (ie, Last Saga where three countries are at war with each other), and anyone can draw and post art of their own characters in that world or vehicles or creatures or illustrations of battles or locations, etc. And whichever country has the highest view count wins the war. And then there are other themes like mecha or Age of Discovery-esque exploring new continents, etc. It got people motivated to start drawing and you saw many artists later go on to release their own artbooks or found gacha companies and design characters for them.
Why haven't we seen any such similar movement on Devianart or Artstation? How do you make pure black linework look volumetric without line weight or oressure sensitivity? How do you figure out what you should be drawing for the most views? All my life I've wanted to write, make stories, and draw comics, but the motivation to actually go through with it has never really been there for me. I've never completed a multichapter in my entire life and I've never been able to draw a single comic let alone draw much of anything for my whole life. I want to be an artist and do something, but I can't ever seem to make anything.
What should I do? Hey guys I'm looking for some advice on how to go about a Comm sheet.
What should I include? Does it need to be as detailed as this or can I simply throw up a coloured piece next to it's line art with a price under each? If I'm mainly focusing on characters should they be standing still or in a pose?
How much is too much? How much is too little?
If it matters I'm mid/high beg so I don't have a lot of advanced techniques to show off.
Would appreciate it if you posted your own if you have them and let me know how effective they are. How do you even begin to sketch something like this? I mean holy shit, I can't believe I genuinely thought I was somewhat competent at drawing, because I get absolutely stumped with more complex shit like this.
Tips? Do you know where or how i can make this random coffee / paint splash effect on CSP?
