Drawing Everyday in Mediocre Amounts (Art Practice Thread Part Twice)

[clowGenesis_CG]

For whatever reason my post drafts keep disappearing and I don’t know where to find them so I’ll hopefully attempt to rewrite.

I already spent the money to buy art supplies that took a really long time arriving so now I’m locked into this course through sunk cost fallacy. These are supplies specifically meant for the DrawABox thing that will apparently turn me from a soygirl small dick artist to a Chadette Big Dick Macho Woman.

There was supposed to be more here (It was so badass and I kept saying the word bitch and various other kinds of bad words) and it was multiple paragraphs long but I changed my mind so now I won’t rewrite it.

The first practice will be the one after this post (Which will come today or tomorrow), It is important to note that this course has a lot of reading so I have no idea how much of those days will be spent actually drawing. So for those days I’ll just be elaborating on what I learned.

Also I’m using the Pomodoro time management system for this so I’m spending like 2 hours a day doing this. These are in accordance with the 50/50 rule where 2 of the pomodoros will be for the practice and the other 2 will be for drawing for the sake of it (I will eventually draw the Roaring Knight or my take on Silas).

The best part about all of this i that I actually learned how to take good pictures of my artwork and now I don’t have to do extracurricular shit when it comes to that. Like damn I’m already doing something I have no talent in, doesn’t need to be made worse

At the end I’ll be like Picasso up in this whore house.

(Sure would be a shame if all these fineliners I bought turned out to be duds)

Just realized that 2 hours a day isn’t really mediocre amounts

Art Practice Year 1 Day 1

I learned that there are 3 joints used in drawing: My wrist, my elbow, and my shoulder. I actually already knew this so I lied. The course focuses on drawing with the shoulder so I guess I’ll be fucking my arm for a really long time just a I did in my previous Art Practice Thread.

It’ll be all worth it eventually. I’m still adhering to my goal of surpassing everyone. It’ll be akin to an underdog swordsman slicing everyone into pieces. In this case I am the swordsman and you all are my prey, watching in abject horror as I filet you all like fish
(I apologize for being severely autistic)

1-2 Pomodoros

I took some notes and drew and stuff

I apologize that it looks like this. I forgot pens do this when you write on the same piece of paper

3-4 Pomodors

I drew a bunch of weird stuff

This is a picture of Bec Noir talking to a weeabo

This is a picture of the Red Flag final boss

This is an Anime Narwhal

This is Clair from Gleipnir but reversed personality and drawn incredibly poorly

[clowGenesis_CG]

I’ll also make it a point this time to no do drugs like I did last time. Since it ended up being a very big problem last time and very likely hindered my progress.

Art Practice Year 1 Day 2

I learned mild amounts of things

mostly about fraying lines and stuff and I also did the assignments that I was assigned to.

1-2 Pomodoros

Below are my notes

And below is my assignment. I was told to draw 8 lines over 1 line and to avoid fraying, I also did it with my shoulder to get the hang of things.

You can see I fucked up a few times but I think I did a good job avoiding the fraying problem

3-4

Anyways do you guys like my totally original Deltarune Darkner OC that is also a secret boss? He’s a dingy pair of thigh high socks and wants revenge because his owner suffered twink death and no longer wears him anymore.

Regular Design

Evil Badass Design

anyways Toby Fox should hire me ngl

Art Practice Year 1 Day 3

I had to cut my art practice in half cuz our electricity got knocked out by wind

In other news though I quite like the inking and I might try to “legally”
get my hands on a book about the subject after I’m done doing this course. The look it gives is actually pretty cool and unlike that of a pencil which I’d normally use.

Pomodoro 1

I learned about and took notes on line ghosting, the notes speak for themselves

The quality is kinda ass here so I apologize

Pomodoro 2

I wanted to incorporate a bit of what I learned in my notes so I got a picture of Popola(Nier) and drew a picture based on a reference of her. Being completely honest this shoulder drawing thing is still a little tough to get used to but I’ll thug it out with enough practice.

Art Practice Year 1 Day 4

I did my 2 hours but I was noticeably slower than usual due to my arm, hands, shoulders, and back hurting again. This happened in my last thread so clearly it’s something I’m doing wrong; or maybe drawing is just physically that intensive. At points I’ve had do multiple deep breaths and take longer than usual breaks

Pomodoro 1-2

This is the 2nd part of my superimposed lines. This one is a bit sloppier than last time on account of reflexive arm movements. I put arrows to indicate what direction I was stroking in for the curved lines.

Pomodoro 3-4

I drew Rem. While doing so I practiced my shoulder and tripod grip style of drawing. I also put lines on her headband thingy to indicate a different texture, which came out really nice and was truly an ingenius move on my part

It’s not perfect but I like how it came out regardless. Even if my rendition of Rem looks like a guy

I quite like it, I might even make this my pfp.

For a moment I was wondering “is this Sidofron” then I saw this and immediately knew it was you—you’re the only person on the forums who would say this.

[clowGenesis_CG]

lmao surprised you couldn’t tell from the trademark dogshit handwriting

Also, “Sidofron” is wild

Art Practice Year 1 Day 5

Arm hurt again so I could only do the exercise at half efficiency and half the time.

Pomodoro 1

I did the ghosted lines exercise and fucked up. A lot

Pomodoro 2

I drew this toaster wanting to get bred

Art Practice Year 1 Day 6

I took a break from DrawABox to showcase some combat/string mechanics for a game.

I didn’t show all of it because a lot of it is WIP or I didn’t want to give a way my precious and tasty innovations but this is basically the foundation.

black magic 2 reference

[clowGenesis_CG]

It’s less that and more just fighters in general.

[clowGenesis_CG]

For whatever reason it says there’s no space and I can’t upload images. So just believe me when I say I basically just did a part 2 of what I did yesterday.

It was indubitably fun

[clowGenesis_CG]

I’ll just post the stuff in bulk when we can post images again.

Art Practice Year 1 Day 7 - 13

I had spent day 7 drawing this idea thing like I did on day 6

For the time I couldn’t have image access, I looked up a guide on proper shoulder placement when drawing. The results were fantastic and my arm no longer hurts. I used my newfound not-hurting shoulder to draw lines and some boxes for days straight.

In the boxes image I drew a picture of a really long nosed man, this is to represent how the huzz be lyin

Also my first fineliner pen (out of 5) is starting to dry up. Sad

[Gamehero14]

These lines look a good deal better than before. What the hell were you doing with your shoulder beforehand…?

[clowGenesis_CG]

Holding my pencil like a gardening hose

[clowGenesis_CG]

Also gonna switch to uploading in batch cuz I like it.

[Gamehero14]

………?.!!?!?!

Sis… how do you still have working fingers and wrists?
