[QUOTE=Skerion;50143849]If you're a beginner artist, I think it would be better to start off using real life references rather than ones from clearly stylized media so that you would have a better grasp on how visuals in reality work. Once you get to the point where you're skilled enough with drawing realistically and well familiar with the rules of nature, that would be a good time to start breaking those rules and do some sweet stylized shit.

I would imagine that's how whoever drew that one frame of animation in your reference got to that point in skill.[/QUOTE]
well i never implied that i was ignoring real life reference as i use it a lot (or even just looking at myself in the mirror)
Another techy thing

I can't decide if I want to put something under the pylons or not.[/QUOTE]
If this is a flag, I highly encourage you and the Podunk CoC to watch this video: [video=youtube;pnv5iKB2hl4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnv5iKB2hl4[/video]
The flag would be way better if it was just the three pylons centralized. They could be white and the background could be purple. It would be unique and iconic.
At very least I would say don't put anything under the pylons. It is complex enough as it is.
[QUOTE=Jallen;50131251]Tbh I wouldn't buy a wacom again, I feel like I'm being ripped off. I have an Intuos 5 Medium Pro, my friend has a Huion H610 Pro. The Huion (£64) is £176 cheaper than the Wacom (£240) and is more or less the same product from what I can see. My friend has no complaints about it.[/QUOTE]
I bought a cheap tablet too, a Ugee. The surface is fine but the support is horrendous. It barely works. The only success I had with it was unplugging my secondary screens and drawing in Sketchbook pro. It hardly worked in photoshop and often just didn't recognise the pen pressure. SAI was a no go, it wouldn't even register the movement. I emailed the maufacturer and got a response over a year later...
Not sure what Huion tablets are like but from what I read, I assumed all third party drivers were kinda broken.

Recently I had to pick up a tablet to paint textures and instead of the larger, Ugee tablet, I chose my ancient Bamboo Pen because it actually works and doesn't freak out when you have multiple monitors attached.

That's exactly what I thought but then I realized that the picture might be a joke because it does pretty much every single thing that the guy says not to do.
[QUOTE=Thatrandomuser;50109295]Been flexing my fabrication muscles for an upcoming anime convention in Raleigh at the end of May, been a lot of fun! Huge learning process so far, probably put in well over 60 hours of work into it so far, this is just the chest piece here, rest of it still needs to actually be made.[/QUOTE]

doing something in my short where the scenes that take place in the present are mainly shot still and through frames kind of like ozu

Decided to try and do something 'cute' today because all I've been drawing/painting lately is serious realistic stuff. So, I drew the Heralds from SR2's expansion without their insect-like helmet.

Guys, how do you shade clouds? Should I leave them "almost all" white like this? If possible could someone show me how to make them look more natural?

This is my attempt at making a stereogram (its a type of 3d illusion). its my first try, and they are pretty hard to draw when you use 3d shapes because you need to deal with small precise angles (i just eyeballed the angles so its not perfect). to see the illusion, cross your eyes until the 2 large octahedrons in the middle merge into one new octahedron. The illusion is that the shapes towards the bottom seem closer than the ones at the top, its a bit subtle.
