Aliexpress is a treasure trove of nice clothes with these off-center asymmetric designs that look awesome on the models. I loved that skirt too. The other thing I loved was Night in the Woods, which was a fantastic story to play through, so more fanart obvs.

If someone is drawing daily, no matter what the content is... that should be encouraged... uhhh... right? That's a quality octopus. This is probably the most involved drawing I've done recently and it made me realize how bad I am with backgrounds (well, even worse than everything else at least). Working on a different pic now where I'm trying to put more effort into doing a proper background.

been thinking about Daily Drawing: I'm really slow and anal retentive about drawing a lot of the time so I've started trying to make at least one fifteen-minute doodle a day. Let's see how quickly I give this up  (in chronological order starting from Wednesday)     e: looking at the third one tells me I really need to make more textured brushes for Photoshop, that one is way more eye catching. Well. In due time (so probably the end of this year haha) e(2): and these are digital ones but I'll do some pen stuff too probably a hole-y ghost fucked around with this message at 17:04 on Jan 12, 2018 |

A job is not the time to learn new mediums unless absolutely necessary. I just wanted to protect the charcoal, not destroy the inking. Here is some content.  It's a doodle of some girls at a party. Not to sound defensive but if the people I draw might look half drunk / stoned. It might be true vs. sloppy drawing. On the other hand - I draw as fast as I can - so it could also be that the drawing sucks. Lately I have been spending only 5-10 minutes on portraits. Internet Kraken: Thank you. I really wish I had painted it vs. using marker. Guess I can always paint over it. a hole-y ghost: I am trying to be more consistent in 2018.

Let's see how quickly I give this up I dunno if I've mentioned this before, but to pick up speed, I played a lot of doodle or die. http://doodleordie.com/ For me it was a great way to get varying prompts, and since your artistic options are super limited, you just focus on conveying the essence of what you need in a picture as fast as possible. I mean, you CAN still make insane efforts for throwaway stuff like "happy carrots" or "scary pumpkin" (and people do), but that sorta defeats the point of doodling. I tried to make every picture fun, and tried to take offensive prompts as mental exercises in delivering what's asked and not what's intended. It comes as a surprise to no-one that I'm still doing Night in the Woods fanart, this time Palecat from the Demon Tower minigame-within-the-game:  Also Selmers the poet, who delivers an incredible slam dunk of a poem in the game like

a hole-y ghost posted:Sorry to play devils advocate (code word for jerk of course) but whyyy??? Consistency is just a boring inevitability of art that comes with doing it a lot imo Sorry to disagree vehemently but ... "Consistency is just a boring inevitability of art that comes with doing it a lot"... is SO wrong. Consistency is the artist's GREATEST skillset. Consistency is where skill is born. gently caress talent. There is no such thing and I am tired of people trying to defend the idea. Sportsball players aren't born with the their sportsballs. Musicians aren't born with their instruments. There is no such thing as talent vs. consistency and focus. If you are bored by your art, you are doing something wrong. If you are bored by somebody else's art then look at yet another person's art for inspiration. If you can't find inspiration / art from life - I can't help you. Some days it is very hard to create anything at all. This thread and daily practice is a way to overcome malaise and hopefully get better over time. Having said that, art that I am happy with usually takes more than just a few minutes or hours to create.  3d doodle because I am trying to get better at the daily 3d thing too. Consistency is king.  Totally forgot about doodle or die... hmmm. sigma 6 fucked around with this message at 17:54 on Jan 13, 2018 |

There is no such thing and I am tired of people trying to defend the idea. Sportsball players aren't born with their sportsballs. Musicians aren't born with their instruments. There is no such thing as talent vs. consistency and focus. I'm going to 100% disagree with you on this. There absolutely is talent, or if you'd prefer: individual differences in ability. I mean, you don't even need to find a differently abled person to find someone who's abilities differ from yours. I have friends who hear "math" and their brains flip out and run away hiding, who will look at a job that requires hand-eye co-ordination and get it wrong every single time, year after year, but sit them with a bunch of strangers and they've made 5 friends and detected who's feeling a bit down within minutes, while I'm sitting in a corner flabbergasted. I've known people who can detect the slightest off-key-ness in a note and some who can't even tell their favourite singer has never hit a note in their life. Yes, talent means squat if you don't put in the hours to refine it, but some people can pick up anything and be good at it in way less time than others, and some people seriously just can't learn certain things no matter how hard they try. I know it's frustrating when you spend a lifetime learning something and people put it down to talent, and not the work, but they might be people who would not be able to do what you do even if they spent the time learning it. I used to tell people who said they could never do what I do that they totally could if they put the time in. Took me time to realize that no, some people really could not. Most people can improve with effort, and we are lucky that we're in that group.

I do prefer the term natural ability. Talent makes it sound like some kind of magical thing. Natural ability can be inherited or developed but it isn't magic. Unless you actually "disabled", you can generally develop a skillset. Talent is defined as "natural aptitude". I am going to stand by what I said about people not being "born into" their roles in life. Michael Jackson was not born with a microphone any more than Michael Jordan was born with a basketball. They were both born with some natural ability which they developed over time ...out of love for the craft. 10,000 hours of love people. At least.

To add one note to the innate talent/work comments: You also have to have the will and dedication to stick to one thing. Any artistic thing I can do reasonably well right away, and then improve exponentially for a bit, but instead of refining that skill into a truly high level I always move on to something else, some "new" aspect of craft because the thrill of learning/doing something new is such a RUSH. It's a problem.(I have so much art stuff I may be found dead someday, suffocated by supplies.)

DOG BALLS. more spheres of dogs please Neon Noodle posted:Doges this is a cluster of excellence and wonder and happy Al! posted:that was always my favorite castlevania boss is approaching the right number of dog but i think a few more could be squeezed in there dang please on talent and consistency and whatever, not that its anywhere nearly as fascinating as the Dog Orb but I've always preferred the word passion to talent. I've felt like saying that "oh youre so incredibly talented" is diminishing to the work people put into their craft - be it singing or drawing or whatever, and is also sort of a closed door in the face of beginners. Like you might as well not keep going if you don't start out as a savant. I have an innate talent for spacial thinking - but it was passion that got me through the years and years of drawing animals with lemon heads and feet bigger than the entire body. i prefer to compliment skill, and attribute passion over talent but that could be splitting hairs. And i think consistency is something to be worked for and something that comes with time. Drawing a subject i'm weak at, getting it right was more luck than intention. It was work and time that got me to get it to look right every time. Though not 10,000 hours. An interesting talk about 20 hours, instead of 10,000. anyway some art. the ink thing is my gw2 charr done in place of the "justice" tarot card and i thought quite a bit too much about the changes to imagery or character but i dont think it would really matter to anyone but me.

 Today I made my first digital drawing! Some ramen, part of a series of happy dancing street foods for a small mural. I was given a hand-me-down Intuos and I never thought I would get the hang of drawing indirectly, but it isn't that bad and it's really nice to not have to wash brushes! Obviously needs some work, but it was a fun start.
