>>7155701Instead of bashing my head I'm going to bash my balls and see if it has the same effect
>>7156104Yes, all the deniers are silent now. >>7156109Your kids will be genious artists and most likley page one Dad'ers if you smash them hard enough.
>>7156109
Hey DAD, I see you trying new stuff, doing the work, I'm proud of you keep it up
>>7156371I changed nothing, but thank you.
No /TRAD/ general? Aight, this will be the trad general. Post your recent trad artworks/WIPs in this thread.I will begin. Will really appreciate critiques.
>>7156079>painting thick on thick
>>7156079There is such a thing as too much texture my friend.
Which books or videos should I read/watch for water colours?
>>7156166I disagree.
>>7156098All my paintings have had this look recently. It's mostly because I don't have much time to paint these days and this time between paintings makes forget what I did previously and mess up. But I was going for thick textures on this one too.
Last one: >>7121414A bad sharpener will slow you down and ruin your pencils.A good sharpener is like a fresh breath of air, such as pic.
>>7156219I use a knife
>>7156227What if you cut yourself
>>7156229>cut yourselfNGMI, true artists can sharpen their pencils with a knife eyes closed.
>>7156219i love that sharpener, it does eat (more than alternatives) pencils though.
>>7156219I wish they made these in steel. The plastic just gets clunky after a few years of use, and easily breaks. I'd pay good money for a full steel or brass version...

I want to draw but I have 0 idea of what i should draw right now >Draw what made you want to start drawingThat is way, way above my skill level
>>7156296>That is way, way above my skill levelNot an excuse.
Drawing things beyond your skill level is good for you, children do it all the time and look how much fun they have. You should care less about the end result and more about how fun it is to actually draw. The most important thing to learn in art is to accept that you're going to make a lot of bad drawings before you make good ones. It's good to let go of your ego early and just get to drawing, because drawing without any inhibitions is useful at all levels of skill.

Why did mods hate loli they do nothing but learn how to draw
>>7156364I have no rights to answer this question. Only a few people know the reason.
>browsing booru>spot the hardest image imaginable>check source>"Page not found"Why do they do this?
>>7155177Maybe if the artist weren't a bigot or a nonce
>>7155116I delete 99% of my work because they are bad senpai.

>>7156355He is a western boy, they loves drawing ugly and disproportionate shit, because it's too hard to draw cute things and much easier to say sTyLeeee.
>>7156352Nice studiesHeres one more and then ill stop clogging up the threadIf your interested in more heres my insta below, lotta my old stuffs older but you can see how I improved over the years. Figure studies and master studies really helped me, but ive still gotta learn how to properly draw without ref as you can see the stuff in my 4th post aint the best.https://www.instagram.com/a2ndsense?igsh=MTR3Mm54cWM4bXVvOA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr
>>7156345I wouldn't say sore, it seems like I get a jolt whenever something hits that area, might be hitting a vein or something.
>>7156359>Without refWhy not just use ref but draw something else entirely with it? For example, you pick a Spiderman ref and draw Wolverine with that ref. There's no reason to suddenly drop refs, just start doing more observation works.
>>7156347I am and I still fucked it up.

What is the consensus on Vilppu here? Is he the sort of teacher you should prioritize as "God-tier"? (as many people seem to depict him as) Or is he more of a secondary resource to you?
>>7156357he was good when starting out, but ive moved on to loomis and bridgman. you could probably skip him and just do krenz style copies for the first 3 months.
>>7156360what makes him deficient for /ints/?
>>7156361ill let you know when i get out of high beg
>>7156362damn, what makes him bad for high beg?
I've spent some time reflecting and observing on these discussion boards. There seems to be a negative attitude here where some people can't stand to see others succeed. Only a small minority will achieve great things while the majority will likely complain without taking action. It's a harsh reality.
>>7155341Imagine being this resentful of other people

>just realized I have basically no original content of my own, only studies and cheap imitationsIt's over.
spend some time in the sensory deprivation chamber. pay attention to what you do and ask yourself why you do it.
>>7155408>just realized I have basically no original content of my ownyou could always just start today lol
>>7155963This. When ever I want to make original content it looks like shit, which is why I study so much. I want a portfolio to look back on and be amazed and inspired other. Not a portfolio that I look back on and cringe.
I don't think cheap imitations exist if you're authentic about it. Nobody creates their 100% original magnum opus on their first attempts. What's stopping you from doing more original art? Lack of creativity? Fear of losing your already established fanbase? If you're already maintaining a certain niche with your art, I suggest doing original art within that niche so as not to alienate your fanbase. And if you don't occupy a niche or have a fanbase, then what's the problem? Get inspired and start creating. Creativity is like a muscle. There is potential. With experience, you'll realize what works and what doesn't. It's all trial and error. All opportunities to grow from. I'm sure you can make it as an artist with the right mindset!You can do it, Anon! /ic/ believes in you! I believe in you! Now you only need to believe in yourself!
>>7156256>When ever I want to make original content it looks like shit, which is why I study so much.not that this is a particularly astute observation, but I think people's tendency to favor original content over studying is due to a habit of instant gratification. the perverse thing is that most people seem to not only want to draw OC, but quality OC - whatever that means for them - which they can't yet do. so they're delaying their ultimate goal in favor of achieving a travesty of it. there's also peer pressure/a desire to fit in that's a factor. it's mainly just a matter of short-term vs long-term thinking.
