Hey guys anybody know a good camera to use for scanning books? I have a DSCWX80 but it gets blurry when zooming in.

>>7147697
It's two multiply layers, first uses a warm tone and the second uses a cool tone. The cool tone layer I only put shadows where I've already put warm tone shadows. Afterwards when I render I use the colour picker with the colours I already have, some slight adjustments if needed.

I'm not saying he shouldn't use every trick on the cheat box to get it done. Heck I would. I could get that page done in three hours. Cutting corners every-fucking-where. But he clearly didn't got to that stage yet.
>>7149784
That anon above is not wrong though, eventually you would choose by default quick solutions to get shit done. But I don't think you are there yet, if you're under pressure you should be able to do it.
I did the exercise to do that page as fast as I could, it took me 2 hours to do that in picrel. That's how some people do those daily webtoons, but even much more crappy than what I did there.
Simplify design, simplify backgrounds, simplify coloring, and you will make it.
I usually do one more step wich is to vectorize the image, so you can use the image in flash animation, so it can be re-scalable at infinitum if you want it. You can check the animated page here >>>/f/3507167

I have heard that statistically that's true. anecdotally that's been true in my own life. in short: be a doer, not a sayer, of deeds. if you actually manage 3-4 hours and you are feeling worn out, perhaps decrease the time. taking what you can get and not fighting the reality of things (e.g. your fatigue) is a good principle to follow here (and life, desu). if you can manage it without fatigue (physical or mental), however, all the better for you.

I have an issue. i'm trying to gain followers, made multiple posts about it and some of my current followers responded (super rare) and basically, it seems like they want to be more "friendly" with me than what i wanted or expected.
Naturally, being autistic, i now have no idea what to do to clarify i DONT want to be friends with anyone, while still not looking like an asshole.

To keep it short, the world treated me like shit and i am constantly backstabbed, so i've decided never to trust anyone again, at least not as a friend. I understand i could "just talk to them" while not giving them any info beyond what's necessary BUT, that's where my autism comes in again. I'm perfectly fine when i speak AT someone, or when i talk anonymously like this, but an actual conversation where i have an "identity" (in this case my art name), where someone can "SEE" me, i just don't like it.
It feels so intimate to me, and it makes me want to back away and i wind up not saying anything at all. It doesn't help how delicate this situation is either. How do you say "hey i don't wanna be friends with you" without looking like a dick and pushing away the few followers you have.

This is happening with 2 different people. 1 guy came out of nowhere and started replying as though i'm talking directly to him, as opposed to just posting to vent or ask the entire audience i have. The other guy has been following for a while and i pretty much don't reply to him even though he follows me, i just don't want to talk to him because he seems...off. not in the "off" way that someone retarded like me would be either, just like, something is telling me he'd just be awkward to interact with, and i think it's true since if i did interact, i would only be doing it because i feel forced to do so.

wtf do i do?

if you put personal info out there, people will think you're more open. You gotta shut up. I do not share anything with my followers more than tips and occasional compliments to other artists. Contain your autism or deal with its consequences
>>
>>7148789
Pretty much this.
>when I talk people respond to me how do I stop this?
>>7148764
But go ahead and don't interact with them, you'll be less successful as an artist which is all about how you connect with others, awkward interactions with people is just something that happens and you just have to deal with it with tact.

3. Due to this general's PPH (posts per hour/thread activity), please wait until the thread falls to around page 5 or 6 before making a thread. Use archived(moe) or warosu to retrieve the old threads.

A thread for recommending and sharing brushes/digital art assets.

>Publicly editable rentry for CSP assets. Feel free to contribute brushes you have purchased. Assets that have been deleted from the store are also welcome to be uploaded here.
https://rentry.org/CSP_materials

>CSP assets store wishlist
https://rentry.org/Brush_Wishlist

>"What brush does this artist use?"/"What brush looks like this?"
1.)Search "brush (from:artisthandle)" or "assets.clip-studio.com (from:artisthandle)" on twitter if that's where they post mainly. Make sure to set it to the Latest tab to see the artist's tweets. Or use Nitter.
2.)Search brush posts on their Pixiv Fanboxes/Booth/Patreon. Then try to see if it's on kemono or archives.
3.)If none of the searches work, then ask here.

>"My CSP is cracked so I can't use the asset store"

Didn't watch the video. Is there any point in listening to art influencers? They're always more focused on getting their follower count up than being better artists. All they do is sketch while talking over a video then call themselves artist. The last one I tried listening to was these series of shorts on common mistakes artists make, but when I looked at his art, he was making the same mistakes. Like the Linus Tech Tips of artists.
