There you go.

WE G O T T A GO

not OP but i appreciate this, thanks user

Don't bother. There are so many other more worthwhile ways to spend your time and your life. Trust me I've been drawing cartoons for a living for 25 years and I just want to die.

Do anything else with your time.

Start drawing.

Listen to this man.

I'm also drawing cartoons for a living and I seriously question my life choices

Neither can I

Also did I go too ironic to the point of not being funny or is it just enough

Anybody have that list of recommended books?

but cartoons give joy to the viewers

wow, now I have something to do in summer

thats the worst advice i ever heard.
I mean i asked /adv/ once how to build a birds house
and they had stupid ideas.
But wow

What exactly do you do? Is it for a company or just for yourself?

what's the handgun for?

But who's gonna give joy to me,user?

>go to a bar
>say you draw comics for a living to random girls
>they ask you to draw them
>you draw aher in a lewd way
>she gets the sign
>joy received

you could be a guest at conventions or lectures, people would be interested

>go to a bar
>get hammered as fuck
>hand barman shit drawing I just made and tell him it's the payment
>he accepts it
>I die
>he becomes millonaire

...

Just practice you stupid fuck. Post this shit on /ic/ I'm sure they'd love to help

damn, if this is considered bad, what hope is there for me?

Where did it all go so wrong?

>Realize i love animation

>Get bored of classes in the first few months.
>Realize drawing is just a hobby and not something i would like to spend my entire life doing.
>Drop Graphic Design.
I still draw but just to make art and maybe a Web Comic in the future. I prefer a real job

so should i not follow these rules or what?

This could be helpful
Thanks bud

they think everything is trash over there
nice trips

Personally, i would love to have an action series designed for adults/ late teenagers but idk if i'd want it to be a life long thing, my dream would be to make like 2 maybe 3 different animated series that people would enjoy and then idk after that

That's fine because his art doesn't really get much better after the 3rd one, he just adds more lines

/ic/ is very elitist and salty, get their book reccomendations and leave, that's all you really need.

anyone else think that the sixth mastery looks weird?

>Start Graphic Design on College
Here's a tip from someone who made this mistake. Fucking go to a school with a animation course.
Don't try this backdoor shit where you think "I'll take graphic design (or some other slightly art related course) and try to get into art/animation that way."
It won't work.
Don't try to make a safety net with something you won't enjoy in the long run and won't lead to your goal career.
Same goes for the web comic shit.
I have a friend who thought he'd do a web comic to "improve". He stagnated. Shit went no where and it was ugly as fuck and poorly written.
Playing pretend comic book creator is a waste of time when you're not actively building a foundation and learning.

I ask myself this all the time.

My original plan was to go into comp sci or some related field. But well, the college I wanted to go to was too expensive for my family so I went to an art school, ended up in animation.

I kid you not, everything I learned about anatomy was on my own time. through watching porn, and studying other artist works. I did take a digital sculpting class so that helped too. All that taught me more than my life drawing class did,

You could probably find scores of fat nerds willing to give you blowjobs, if that's something you're interested in.

>thought i could draw
>turns out all i could do is copy&paste

want to draw purely as a means to harness my depression. But unless the terrible guro snuff drawn is fappable it won't do shit for me

>falling for the /ic/ meme

Use the guidebooks from the sticky and nothing else.

>I kid you not, everything I learned about anatomy was on my own time. through watching porn, and studying other artist works.

This might be me being a sperg who remembers the most trivial shit, but i got anatomy down pretty easily. People play it up like it's rocket science but i didn't have a lot of problems with anything besides feet and around the groin the first of which being because i absolutely despise feet

Good advice.

If you want to lose the urge to learn how to draw as a beginner read a Loomis book.
/ic/ is good place to get a cheap laugh and maybe stumble across something interesting. Not advice.
The average user on /ic/ is a do nothing bitter loathsome loser. They'll spend more time shitting on an artist who does produce than produce themselves.
Go to /ic/ for their book threads, get some free shit, and like I said a quick laugh.

It's not really complicated once you actually take note of how things work and someone puts your their view into perspective.

I think the reason why anatomy is played up is because people often assume they know how it works when they dont. including proportions.

I didn't even know I was placing my abs in the wrong spot until last year.

Only if they know how to give one.

I had my first blowjob from one of them. She death gripped the hell out of it. Swear she was gonna rip the skin too.

/ic/ has decent resources and can tell you where you fucked up, theyre tards, but honest tards.

but like the rest of Sup Forums, if you hang around too long youre bound to get nowhere

fuck you shitposter
you were just gonna draw more shitty rule 63 porn like the rest of these faggots

"Where I fucked up?"
I've personally never went there for advice.
I usually lurk and shitpost.
But yes decent resources. Found all my art books and other shit there. Retards? Yes sir.
Honest. Meh...
Blind leading the blind doesn't equate to honesty. Plus most of them parrot shit they've read from a book.

Doing an action cartoon on this days is almost impossible, and if you somehow manage to make one it will look like ass. I doubt any company will want to make an action cartoon with Avatar tier animation especially because now everything has to be a comedy of 11 minutes or you are out. Horewer i think doing an action cartoon for Netflix could be possible but i like designing Scenarios, characters and thinking of plots more than anything.
>Fucking go to a school with a animation course.
Really? just an animation school and thats it? You need to know other stuff if you want to survive in this world user, you can't just focus on something as risky as animation and think you'll make it big in life. What if you can't get a job? You need to study or learn to do something else that you know will give you money.

You'll learn more about art and animation taking an animation course or going to an animation school than fucking a graphic design course.
If you have a goal go for that goal. Not try to scam your way to that goal pursuing something else.
>What if you can't get a job?
If you go through a good animation school and can't find a way to turn those skill learned into a job that's your fault.
If there is a will there is a way as long as you aren't lazy.

>Not try to scam your way to that goal pursuing something else.
It's a pain in the ass to convince your parents to let you focus completely on Art/Animation/Drawing stuff tho.I think its better to study something more general so you learn to do other stuff and not only draw something cute.

>It's a pain in the ass to convince your parents
Are you parents going to work for you?
No, right?
Then why the fuck are they a factor in "your" goals.
If you ant to be in an art career then do so.
Don't talk yourself out of a dream/goal due to fear of your mom and dad or fear of failure. If you don't try then you're fucking yourself. And failure is a guarantee in any field.
If you want to make a living drawing something cute then it's up to you. It's up to your focus and drive to do so.

theyre probably a factor because user can't afford art school for himself.

For the asshole who keeps posting goku banging a washing machine

Whatever you do, drop any dreams of starting a webcomic, you'll be broke and hungry

Get that paper by doing lewds. I recommend with THICC and a touch of loli

There are way to get money for art school.
Ways that don't involve loans.

>Whatever you do, drop any dreams of starting a webcomic, you'll be broke and hungry
But what if you have a real job and just want to make a web comic for fun?

Why would you ask /adv/ instead of /diy/?

Maybe i've being too paranoid but i still believe focusing solely on something that isn't big on the Market is still risky

Then give up on art.
If you feel that way. Give up.

Sad thing you can't do both the lewd porns and the web comic hobby as separated things

Why is that?

I think i'll give up on getting in the industry but i'll keep drawing until i get bored. So yeah just a hobby. Are you still studying art?

>Are you still studying art?
An artist never stops studying.
But yeah.

They were probably joking but if you get caught doing porn on the side people will never let you live it down. Especially inflation porn.

>if you get caught doing porn on the side people will never let you live it down
Only if you're a man.

Women might not shit talk you in public but they will absolutely be judging you behind your back.

that's why it has question mark. The author of the guide wasn't even comfortable with it yet.

Naw, you be seen as empowering and harrowing.
And a lot of women are closet freaks anyway.
They'll say something is gross and flick the bean to it later.

More women in the animation industry draw smut on the side or use to draw smut than you'd think.

If only they would show it. Even so, they'll just say something is gross and continue acting like its gross even if they do miss out on getting dick.

Except they don't, because most of /ic/ sucks. If you're "good" read: excessively detailed so as to show off higher technical skill, they'll suck your dick and ask for advice, if you're bad, they'll tell you to restart from ground zero, and if you're in the middle there's a 50/50 chance they won't reply at all.

>Rebecca Sugar and Chris Savino laugh menacingly

>Not letting them live it down

/ic/ is good if you stick to threads with known community members.
Come to /las/ or stylization general and their discords.

>dad loves cartoons
>tfw you will never make a cartoon for your dad

>Dad thinks cartoons are for childrens
>He wants me to stop playing around drawing and focused on a real career
Having successul parents sucks. They don't even want me to work on a cafe or restaurant because thats demigrant to their eyes

Live what down?

Next you're gonna tell me you visit /fit/ for advice

just draw dude

It was a bit too ironic but I smirked a tiny bit

>Hearing any board opinion about its designated subject.
You should know by now.

well do you want to follow these rules?

>Have a really good joke in mind but no matter how I try no one ever gets it
>Even when I try to deliver the joke unironically
>All because I can't draw
Pic related

>my art never gets attention
Fuck yeah, dude, I'm finally average

nsio knows the basics, but he fails to apply them himself. He's like a fat coach who can't play the sport he's training everyone for.

>tfw can sketch decent enough
>tfw have 000% line confidence when inking
>tfw have to rely on line stabilizers to make passable art

Am I cheating myself or does everyone do it this way?

I should mention this is when I make digital art.
The shitty thing is I actually have pretty good line confidence when inking physical work.

I have that problem too.

Normally i would hide them under thick lines, but one way I get around them is to make quick decisive strokes in one go.

Going super slow trying to focus on inking just makes my hand shake too much.

Do what you gotta do for the lineart. Honestly it's the most tedious step and really frustrating trying to keep the energy of the sketch.

drawing can't bring spongebob back

Thats fucking choice lad.

Thanks, feel free to use it as you see fit.

>They don't even want me to work on a cafe or restaurant
Both my parents are successful and they forced me to get ANY job available because shit money is better than zero money.

Sorry your father isn't supportive, especially since art fields suck to make money in.

>000% line confidence when inking
I don't want this feeling.

I've been trying to remedy this. But what says with thick lines is a way to deal with it. Or, maybe your lines aren't thick enough to begin with. Mine weren't.

Non-meme answer.
Read these two books:
>Color and Light by James Gurney
>Perspective Made Easy by Norling

Don't just look at the pictures. READ the actual words and try to wrap your brain around the theoretical knowledge art is built upon.
Drawing at it's core is all about creating complex geometry, but before you tackle that subject you need to master creating BASIC geometry. The book on perspective will teach you that. The other book teaches how light works and how it interacts with it's environment.
