>From what I saw, it usually varies from 32x32 to 64x64. I chose 48x48 as a middle-ground, but I'm not sure if that's the best.
The reason they are 32 and 64 is because it's better for performance to use powers of 2. As for sprites, standard textures start at 512 or 1024 nowadays. You really don't have to go less pixels unless you want to stylistically. So yeah, you're doing low res because that's what you like stylistically, just pick the size and resolution that looks best to you and pick a power of 2 if you want the gains.

I think this Krita tutorial by David Revoy belongs here as well
>Tutorial - an illustration from A to Z with Krita
<A long 1h22min Krita video tutorial fully commented. A real full lenght course suited to beginners, but also advanced digital painters. It starts from scratch with default set of brushes, preferences and break-down all the process. The repetitive parts while painting were all accelerated and can be skipped easily (a timer in overlay appears on display) Check the Timeline codes under to navigate in the video.

I have very limited artistic ability but I plan on practicing a lot and taking some low cost courses to get good. The goal here is to write and draw up 2-3 comic series of my own. How fucked am I?

You 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.

Lumos and fundamentals are always a key and important because you need to re-create the actual world realistically before you can stretch and bend its parts.

What is construction? I looked up both "Hampton" and "Loomis", they look like Norman Rockwell type shit, very boring.

So, in order to draw anime and other cartoon shit, you have to know how to draw realistically before you can exaggerate. This is why when people copy anime without knowing art it looks like a soulless husk begging for the sweet release of death. These books and artists mentioned here are the regular suggestions in online communities. The faster you can draw a loomis body, the faster you’ll be able to get a DRAW HUGE TITS book and be able to do it correctly. When you learn guitar you learn the major and minor chords before playing barred jazz chords. Baby steps.

I don't want to draw anime, and technique and medium are always subjective. I still don't understand what is meant by "construction".

>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.

>>3508
You 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.

overview of 3 head drawing methods/guides:
<Loomis
<Reilly
<Asaro
They progress in complexity and nuance so you can develop from a beginner to an intermediate skill level drawing the head. You will still need to look into each of these independently to find the instructions for them.

Loomis 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

>I mean in person stuff is a lot less accessible
Not 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

This is gonna annoy people but are there any tutorials for people that aren't that passionate about drawing and don't wanna be great perfect artists but want to get into it for more practical reasons
I want to draw a dream journal (and maybe some porn) mostly for my own emotional satisfaction, I don't want it to be perfect or beautiful just to convey the important elements correctly, but I feel like if I took the usual route and forced myself to draw a cube every day for a year I would never get there

The simplest answer is just draw from reference. Practice whatever you want to improve on.
