@sillysunshinee Shape language from drawing shapes from different angles, basic perspective of those shapes, understanding basic, simple anatomy and how the body is structured, and how to translate those shapes into body forms.
Essentially practice that & apply it to things you want to draw!
@kuso_otoko Imma be real the only thing soul-crushing to me now is the take over of generative AI & the joy it takes after constantly seeing discussions over it over actual art.
We only have so much time and such a manipulative process is taking even more of it away from us.
@Galexyofthings@ToonHive Gen AI doesn't just apply to creating images, which is what most people think of when they hear 'art', even if writing and other things can be replicated by it which is why I made the distinction.
A lot of ppl only reference AI in reference to Generative AI.
The thing I love the most about physical sketchbooks is that you can get miniature ones & draw at work when your not busy & you'll be fine โ๏ธ๐โจ
@ThatsNotScandal@LuvDoveyAnna97@fimbultr0987147@Lunaflorisi Yeah and further context is that it was ghostwritten by another human being and not plagiarized.
So it's light-years better than AI Gen garbage. Of course, is not your work that's being stolen, so your thought process is entirely different which is why I'm not surprised.
@ThatsNotScandal@LuvDoveyAnna97@fimbultr0987147@Lunaflorisi Funny how perspectives change when you find out a book from an author you came to like was actually ghostwritten. But perspectives about the author totally doesn't change nope not at all you've totally made a good point ๐ซฉ
@AidanFeemster_@adri_smash@Lunaflorisi It kills me for spiteful most pro GenAI people are.
It's like getting mad someone failed most questions on a test & clowning them for trying while copying off answers of more experienced learner, but with a different colored pen ๐๐
Gen AIos perfect for those kinds of ppl lol
@HoodMisaki@adri_smash@Lunaflorisi I don't want to live in a world where ppl who don't truly care about art are put on pedestals & everything is based on "passable looks" from stolen art & not about the context & care for what was created.
Normalizing the Automation of expression will be the end of humanity.
@Lunaflorisi It kills me when AI bros say that artists that actually want their work respected are "elitist Luddites" when they're the ones "profiting" off other ppl's literal hard work.
Also drawing tablets & screens are technology, so I'm pretty sure the "Luddite" is just to sound snarky.
@Mproblem_Rafa@odeko_yma Outside of not being able to control it, I find the task of Darkrai's nightmares important to life and truth, as being reminded of your fears is a way of understanding them & in the end facing them. Like a balance since things can't always be nice and sweet
@rdvelveties And having ADHD only makes it worse, cause you've always procrastinated so you can't tell when the adult fatigue actually started ๐ญ๐ณ
