Why was that and did the story follow his initial plan up to around where the anime ends? There is a noticeable shift around there in the quality of the writing

>>9619

I like stories that push emotions to an extreme and I think the melodrama of japanese romance does that, the thing is that its also not very good. I'm motivated by my hubris telling me that I could do far better. The anime and manga Saikano is a major influence because of this, I see brilliance in it but the story is at the same time absolutely terrible in other aspects.

The only book that I would really recommend is Be With You by Takuji Ichikawa. Its a very sweet story, and importantly I think it gets one of the archetypes for male romance right in a way I haven't seen elsewhere.

The Animatrix is similarly a favourite partly because it pushes things to the extreme, I haven't found many stories that are nearly as thoroughly apocalyptic as the 2nd Renaissance.

Well, photo props are actually not too uncommon, and games did use automatic compression for assets back then, based off of reference sheets or predrawn assets that'd be compressed into sprites.

That's not really AI generated though, it's just an image that manually has a lowered color depth applied and then is resized to make it look more pixelated.

Deep learning neural network 2D art asset generators can produce somewhat wonky but okay looking stuff if you give them enough time and input (https://www.thiswaifudoesnotexist.net/index.html for example) but the attempts at doing it for pixel art are still very lacking.

https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/e533/86cf832cb3f4728f3534cf94012657fece2e.pdf

I've only found one tool (https://kronbits.itch.io/pixatool) that automates the process used in that .gif and applies some extra filters to produce decent looking results, but it still is inferior to manually made pixel art. I don't think many (if any) games use actual AI generated assets today. At best laser scanned 3D models, but those aren't really AI generated. There are plenty of other reasons why games are more soulless these days, but AI generated assets isn't probably a major contributing factor yet.

Try this. Make the linework with vectors and then draw it with a 1-pixel brush.

You can freely adjust resolution that way too.

I used to do a lot of non-iso pixel art before but I kinda see it as silly and immature these days.

I'm still be interested in it if I were to apply it in a 2d game but I would use much more realistic palettes and draw less cartoony subjects than say, Mario or Sonic.

Hello drawfags. I just started seriously drawing about a week ago (I've taken art classes in high school years ago but they were mostly about drawing from reference and I haven't drawn since) and I've been making good progress with the fundamentals. Unfortunately, I ended up not drawing at all for two days and my muscle memory went to absolute shit and I pretty much spent all day rebuilding it again. It is because of this that I've decided that I will draw every day for now on for at least 4 hours a day MINIMUM.

With that being said though, what do you anons recommend that someone spend on drawing as per a daily basis? I know that the obvious answer is going to be "draw as much as possible/whenever you can" but i'm talking about if you just don't have the whole day to do it, or if you're sore from work/tired/sick etc. and you want to push yourself to at least draw enough to feel satisfied for the day.

tl;dr What is anon's BARE MINIMUM time spent drawing per day or even week?

Hi /ic/. Still getting extremely angry at people for not following weird arbitrary and otherwise unspoken rules about making threads are we? Scott Robertson is good and he should read him. I'm 99% sure this is just a pure observational drawing with no real perspective, but understanding that sort of thing might prevent potential errors of the sort we might be seeing-but can't be sure of without the reference being posted like in the front wheel.

Has anyone noticed how fucked everything is. There's some serious indoctrination going in the artist community, even here people are seriously blind. The way people are taught are to draw over and over again till they get it right, lose their imagination and their ability to think freely, lose what makes people happy, the controlling class either want you to kill yourself or put you in a wheel of despair that is getting hooked off the dopamine hits off twitter, either way they want to turn you into a docile sheep.

Like of course drawing over and over again will help, but forgetting your imagination, visualization, child like wonder will drain your soul.

People here don't seem to understand why they don't draw, and it's because you don't care about anything, you can't because they've already sucked your dopamine dry with the internet, games, etc. That would otherwise fuel your imagination.

If you look at someone like kim jung gii, his addiction is drawing, but he's still a man with the mind of a child, he draws what he's wants and gets told off, rather than mindlessly obey, that's the reason he's happy and not a soy man child, that wonders why his drawing give him nothing. The reason he's able to do what he wants, is because when someone told him to stop daydreaming, he did it anyway. There's nothing unique to his mind, that's what the controlled media wants you to think. He's just a person that never conformed from his instincts.

You need to understand that you'll never improve as long as your life force is being zapped from your electronics, you can't be happy if you lose your ability to wonder. I hope someone gets black pilled anyway.

If practice feels that abhorrent you should start considering whether you really want to become a better artist or not.

Nah. I know what anon's talking about. Studies and "practice" kill any desire I have to draw. I get better at drawing by drawing what I want and improving a little bit every time.

>you need to spend two hours a day drawing bodies from reference.

I'd rather eat a bullet.

Really? I like drawing figures from reference and the occasional perspective practice.

This is the best explanation of why to meditate and why without all of this mumbo jumbo self help crap. Mindfulness is okay, but your comment is much more down to watch and to the point.

I think it's nice but I'm not certain what it's supposed to say or if it serves some kind of purpose like a band's logo or something. Good luck in your future endeavors my Polish friend! :DD

ITT: we try to understand motivation, help each other understand our problems with it, and come up with solutions to them.

Post things that get into your way of getting shit done, and things you've noticed that help you get over them or just get motivated. Post ANY thoughts you have on the subject, this seems to be the biggest obstacle for most people (including myself), but there doesn't seem to be much effort put into understanding or fixing it.

Just realized something.

Usually when it comes to the topic of motivation, people tend to think of why they're lacking motivation, but not about means to specifically give yourself motivation. I've noticed Feng Zhu in his videos often says a line in the beginning describing the day and says "let's get this thing started". It's as if he's prepping his own mentality for it. He's also talked about things such as giving yourself a reward after completing something, in the most extreme cases not letting himself eat until he's done with what he's working on.

Mildly related, he's also mentioned separating your work space from your shitposting 8chan browsing videogame space. Put things that motivate you towards your work in your workspace, so when you go there you go mentally into work mode and the environment motivates you. I think there might be something to this, because I have a project that I've been working on at work, sometimes I'm so motivated to finally get it done that I take it home with me, but end up losing interest very quickly when working on it on my computer.

Most of what I drew last month in one big unwieldy image

What gets in my way is that I have no idea why I'm drawing other than that it's enjoyable to just aimlessly doodle. I have no goal, and thus I have no motivation to really practice.

I guess I should commit to some project…
