Huh? I wasn't talking about the cursor, I'm asking how you can get proper motion for drawing with a mouse input.

>I'm asking how you can get proper motion for drawing with a mouse input.
Oh, it's mostly holding down and making the same broad strokes or small movements you would with a pen or pencil. It's not easy, but neither are Wacom drawing pads.

Trying to draw a circle or straight line on a mouse is so hard.

It's crazy no one has invented a stylus you can hold like this. I guess it doesn't matter since the screen sizes are way too small for proper arm movement. You take any drawing class this is the first shit they beat into you. Move your arm not your fingers.

Honestly the friction is what makes it easier for me, but then again I've mostly stuck to editing and clean-up work.

1) Depends where you are. I know art schools and classes that didn't teach this even in beginner courses
2) It may be because it's not like a piece of paper, since you can zoom in and out with a tablet.

nice
like the idea of it
cool depiction of imagination

Nice! I recognize Totoro and gang but not anyone else.

It's cute <3

>nice, very nice. is the dithering done manually?
yes, i use limited palettes (usually 4 - 32 colours) and i feel dithering looks best to me when doing it by hand

Cool!

I've always admired pixel art. Especially sprite sheets and pixel animation. These days anyone can "AI generate" some pixel art of a still image but it takes real skill to draw it, and I haven't seen anything be able to generate sprite sheets yet, which are almost a lost art.

Which course in particular do you want anon? Some of them can be found on rutracker and cgpeers. For the latter, registration is closed, but I can get the files for you depending on what you are looking for specifically.

I’m lucky enough to live within a tank of gas from them. I took a hand full of classes with them.
I could have saved a lot of money by learning the basics first. Watts is for intermediate level students, not beginners.

You should start with Bridgeman and Loomis. Believe it or not How to Draw the Marvel Way, is the most rounded starting point. Much better than what Watts has to offer.
Proko’s YouTube channel covers 95% of what Jeff is going to teach you. The other 5% is painting.

When you’re ready, study the Reilly abstraction method and use it to copy old masters like Ilya Repin, JC Lyendecker, etc.
because that’s all he can teach you at the end of the day.
If you’re going to pay for an online art course, it better include the back and forth feedback.
Just don’t fight back against constructive criticism.

I’d still strongly recommend taking any sort of IRL life drawing classes, with nekid ladies. They don’t even have to be good. You just need access to live models and skeletons.
Quick sketches, blind contour drawings, etc. are great for building your motor reflexes. It forces you to draw poses you’re not comfortable with.

If you don’t have any life drawing classes available, you’re just gonna have to humiliate yourself by drawing strangers at your local coffee shop or library or bus stop or whatever.

I thought this was a book, it would be much easier to just download a PDF

For my money, John K's blog is honestly the best art resource out there. He's a weirdo reactionary and actual deranged maniac, but he knows his stuff when it comes to art.
