>Ways to avoid same-face syndrome by Miyuli (deleted tweet)She has a free book with art tips:
https://hivemill.com/collections/miyuli/products/miyulis-art-tips-2018>>948Build hand skill first. Start by practicing drawing circles and then practice drawing two dots and then connecting a straight line between them. Then when you master that, start with perspective and practice drawing ellipses on a grid. Practice drawing boxes in perspective grids.
Once you can draw 3dimensionally you will be able to draw anything because you can make any object out of boxes and spheres.
>>3210You have a project idea, that's great! You have something to work towards. So many people go into hobbies saying they want to do x, the activity, but no idea of what they want that activity to create. Your comic will be awful, but don't let that stop you! Look at the amount of content chris chan put out, then imagine that he actually focused on getting better over time with sonichu. Can you imagine a hardgay sonichu drawn with photorealism? That would be neat.
Anyway, practice, practice practice with the intent of improoooving. Go watch the little lecture video by Ira Glass about THE GAP.
>>2535Aseprite
Or just any raster image editor, pixel art is inherently rudimentary anyways
>>3230Lumis*
Auto correct. Sorry.
>>3306https://thevirtualinstructor.com/blog/drawing-basics-construction#:~:text=Construction%20refers%20to%20the%20practice,that%20they%20wish%20to%20draw.
>Construction refers to the practice of breaking complex objects down into basic shapes. The artist then pieces these basics shapes together to form the more complex shape of the object that they wish to draw.>>3508You should be getting all the reps in of freehand drawing you can. Every day. They are a crutch. But if you have something else you are working on and you can't quite do it by hand (like architecture drawing or something), then sure, use it.

>>952OHHHH
I'M LOOOOOOMING
>>952Loomis is such a 4chan meme recommendation
I can't stand his writing and his approach to teaching stuff
He's only recommended because it's le old and trad and le down to earth and professional
Maybe only his figure drawing book is redeemable but honestly an IRL course would better serve you for that
>>4005Very cute
>>4139I mean in person stuff is a lot less accessible
>>4140>I mean in person stuff is a lot less accessibleNot really?
I especially don't like Loomis because I'm traumatized from hanging around /ic/ adjacent online spaces and having a bunch of gruff technical nerds constantly throwing his name at me whenever I asked for basic advice
It's a very capitalist, technical approach to drawing pushed by people whose artistic ambition is limited to anime pin-up drawings and epic cool monsters
