How do you deal with this issue?
Let's say you have a 3d mass which is tapered near the bottom, in an isometric view (0 point perspective) you can clearly see that it's more narrow at the bottom
Now when you add a vanishing point, making the vertical axis converge at the top, things become wider when they're closer to the bottom. This can balance out the box, making it look completely straight
This can happen with a lot of things, like limbs, how do you deal with this? I feel like I might as well just draw isometric or 1 point and vanishing points are overrated

>2-Fuck the rules in this particular case, exaggerate the narrowness so it still shows, sacrifice realism for artistry.
ive found that you can't cheat 3d space, itll look bad
Maybe it will look ok for some people, but it will look bad for me, which comes before anything else
>>
>>7149988
use 6 point perspective
>>
>>7149998
that doesnt change anything
>>
>>7149988
The answer would be to avoid drawing it from this angle, or include other straighter lines in the scene so you can tell the object is tapered. If you have to draw the object completely alone and at this angle, for some reason, then you would cheat the perspective. You can make it more extreme, exaggerate the tapering on the object, whatever you need to do to show it off. Outside of these things you'd just have to deal with it looking odd, these issues can happen in normal photos too.

Colum, Son of Dagda and Morrigan. Colum means Dove. Instead of Morrigan's black wings, Colum have white wings.
Colum inherits his father's wisdom and strength, along with a deep understanding of the natural world. Like his mother, he is a master of strategy and tactics, able to foresee events and manipulate outcomes to achieve his goals.
The story of Excalibur and how it is stuck in a 'stone'.
Colum: "In its light, your tyranny crumbles, and freedom reigns once more."

Long story short it is a character I created for this game called sworn.

You need to apply the paint thicker, kill all that whitethat’s showing through. You are very literal with your colours, study up on colour temperature and how you can utilize it. Maybe paint from life instead of a photo, since a lot of colour detail and subtleties are often lost in photos. Keep going anon.

>What's a webtoon?
Webtoon is the ancient Korean art of scrolling comics. Instead of traditional manga/comic pages, panels are spread out individually for easier reading on cell phones.

>So they're just spliced manga/comic pages?
You can do that if you want, but they're fundamentally different for a few reasons. For example, panels tend to be drawn longer to fit phone screens, and traditional 2-page spreads are not possible to fit in scrolling format.

>Are there standard page sizes?
Technically yes, but it depends on which platform you post in. Naver Webtoons uses
800x1280px, but the site automatically splices & resizes images anyway.

>Do I have to make it in color?
If you want subscribers, yes.

>Why would I make one?
To be rich & famous, of course. All jokes aside, the pay is low if you're lucky enough to get hired in the first place, the deadlines are more brutal than the manga industry, and the average reader age floats around 11. But as a novel medium with a growing industry, it may still be worthwhile enough for you to experiment.

I had never really been into webtoons before, but earlier this month on a whim I decided to click on your comic. I love it, and it just might be the reason I regained my interest in drawing actually creative things. I really like your style. It's very expressive and appealing. I like how it's approachable in its simplicity, how the underlying 3D forms are apparent making it easy to study. I wanted to figure out how it worked so I did a few studies, and to my surprise it was actually a lot of fun to draw something stylized. My sketchbook before was filled with little more than anatomy studies and floating heads. I was so focused on the constructive aspects of drawing that I forgot that gesture is what breathes life into a character. I think I want to make a webtoon now. Not sure what about, but someday it'll come to me. So, thanks! May the wind blow strong in your sails.

**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.

I have an issue. i'm trying to gain followers, made multiple posts about it and some of my current followers responded (super rare) and basically, it seems like they want to be more "friendly" with me than what i wanted or expected.
Naturally, being autistic, i now have no idea what to do to clarify i DONT want to be friends with anyone, while still not looking like an asshole.

To keep it short, the world treated me like shit and i am constantly backstabbed, so i've decided never to trust anyone again, at least not as a friend. I understand i could "just talk to them" while not giving them any info beyond what's necessary BUT, that's where my autism comes in again. I'm perfectly fine when i speak AT someone, or when i talk anonymously like this, but an actual conversation where i have an "identity" (in this case my art name), where someone can "SEE" me, i just don't like it.
It feels so intimate to me, and it makes me want to back away and i wind up not saying anything at all. It doesn't help how delicate this situation is either. How do you say "hey i don't wanna be friends with you" without looking like a dick and pushing away the few followers you have.

This is happening with 2 different people. 1 guy came out of nowhere and started replying as though i'm talking directly to him, as opposed to just posting to vent or ask the entire audience i have. The other guy has been following for a while and i pretty much don't reply to him even though he follows me, i just don't want to talk to him because he seems...off. not in the "off" way that someone retarded like me would be either, just like, something is telling me he'd just be awkward to interact with, and i think it's true since if i did interact, i would only be doing it because i feel forced to do so.

wtf do i do?

But go ahead and don't interact with them, you'll be less successful as an artist which is all about how you connect with others, awkward interactions with people is just something that happens and you just have to deal with it with tact.

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.

>And how can I place a grid on an image on the computer to copy to this paper?
if you have photoshop or some alternative photo editing software (GIMP, for instance), you can just superimpose a grid on a photo by opening the program with the photo you want to draw and then add a layer above it of a transparent png of a grid. presumably you would know how to adjust the size of the grid, but if not you can just look up how to do so with your program on YouTube or something.

Nigger?

Welcome to the first installment of the Yuri Girl Love General. I invite you into these threads to challenge ourselves by drawing at least two or more Female figures and put an emphasis on the figures interacting with each other; that means you're going to be getting involved into a little bit of story telling with your figures - not with words but purely under a visual medium and adding an environment or background with the figures is highly encouraged but it is not required. These threads should operate similar to the Yuri board >>>/u/ in the aspect that a drawing must contain at least two visible Female figures in order to post. For other drawings with a single Female figure such as the "1girlwhitevoid" pin up drawing or any drawings with a visible Male figure please post in the regular draw threads instead.

New to Yuri? Yuri is a genre from Anime that puts emphasis on relationships that are powerful between Females whether they be tender loving, sadistic, or just plain unfriendly. Please visit the Yuri board >>>/u/ for a general introduction to this Anime genre and just like the Yuri board suggests, drawings of Lesbian sex or nudity between two or more female figures is allowed but not required.

Have an OC? Shipping your favorite anime character with another lady? Got a personal project you're working on? Feel free to post them here but remember this is a visual arts board where you tell your story not with words but under a visual medium with forms and shapes.

Are you saying artists should avoid coom at all cost? Or are you saying that they shouldn't promote it and get those jobs anonymously?

I'm thinking of doing erotic art but these points are exactly why I'm so apprehensive. I don't want to do actual porn as in sex scenes, so I lose a huge chunk of coomers.
