>>5858400> How do you study for 10 hours? Most I can get in 8. And if I'm analysing and practicing than I get burned out before 8 hours. Secret is probably like bipolar and hyperfocused avoidant adhd. Trade off where I get like 2 months of basically constantly doing art stuff for all my waking hours and 10 months where I might do like 4 paintings.
>Though I can do it far longer if I'm just painting from reference. What exactly do you do for 8 hours? Painting from reference lol
>Also try doing those paintings with a hard rounnd brush. Helps a lot with shapes.I did round brushes for some of them. Currently working on one of the paint dab brushes because it looks has the kinds of dirty brush look with random hairs sticking out so it looks more like actual brush strokes.
>>5858333> Marco bucci my boi. Watch his videos and absorb that shit properly this time.I’ll watch them but no promises on how much actually gets encoded.
>As someone already said your value grouping is really bad.
Feel like a lot of it i spend so much time putting down dark tones and base layers and then I get bored and try to wrap it up and jump right over mid tones straight to the highlights. Pic related which is like 2/3rd done but my brain hurts from staring at it for hours.
>You sound like you don't care about your subject matter except it has titties, maybe that's your dopamine problem?Yeah probably. Normally my thing is distorted faces and weird expressions and memes and shit but I have like no interest in doing that on an iPad for whatever reason. Feels like double cheating just doing a portrait maybe idk.
Plus it’s easier to hide like 70 tiddy paintings at the bottom of the procreate library than on canvas panels stored in milkcrates
>Make up characters, tell stories!
Yeah I’ve been working towards that. Like
