I thought it looked familiar!

I knew I'd seen something similar!

[-] Rutty@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago

Yep, saw this the other day

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

It’s very far side.

Why didn’t you credit the original?

[-] Rutty@sh.itjust.works -2 points 4 months ago

It’s literally drawing practice.

[-] ech@lemm.ee 22 points 4 months ago

Eh, I see what you're saying, but regardless of its quality, you're still publishing it by sharing online and it's good practice/common courtesy to credit sources. At the very least it points people down the path to find more if it sparks an interest.

[-] Rutty@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 months ago

This isn’t a bad take.

[-] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

yep, best practice, shouldn't take you long, and when you don't, people assume you're either ignorant of the OG or a shitbag, and both of those impressions are best avoided.

It’s literally a 1:1 copy of an existing work. What you were doing with it at the time is irrelevant. What a weird way to behave if you want to be seen as an artist yourself.

It calls into question all the other stuff you’ve posted. Were any of those uncredited reproductions of someone else’s idea?

“No”, I’m sure you’ll say. But now we’ll never know.

Be better, man. Credit where credit is due.

Feels very Far Side-esque to me.

Looks good!

Invest in a fine liner set going up to a fairly wide gauge, then you can work on erasing the pencil lines and replacing them with thick fine liner. After that the next step will be scanning them into a program like Krita, or Photopea, and colouring them. Then stuff like this gets a lot more immediately 'readible' to the eye.

Good luck!

What if I can't draw, but I would like to use Krita? So how to skip the first part of drawing and scanning.

Krita is also available for Android drawing tablets.

I dunno I kinda prefer analog, in a day when AI can pump out things faster and better than I’ll be capable ever, it seems more fulfilling.

Honestly, I don’t even like pencil and don’t use it. I know for construction and mistakes it helps, but there is something to be said for something permanent on the page. Also I don’t really like the smearing associated with graphite.

Legibility is something I am working toward atm. I am thinking of increasing it by using multiple colors of ink. Putting down a layer of a light yellow/orange/red for basic blocking, followed different pens with different size tips and various shades of ink.

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
