I feel like I'm in a board full of teenagers on Discord and people who hate drawing.

It's not the entire board, but the people you are mentioning are the loudest and most obnoxious. That's why you notice them more than the sane people who don't engage in that kind of unhinged and retarded behaviour.

>>7766509 (OP)
The age of westoid art is over. Just accept it. You can always visit a museum

>I feel like I'm in a board full of teenagers
It's most likely this. We likely have a bunch of snarky teens who think they're being clever. Just look at >>7766525 , do you think they're being serious?
Most of the AI posts, construction hating posts, and EastVsWest posts are the same - pay them no mind.

>>7766509 (OP)
Iktf, bro. I truly truly do.
/ic/ is such a cancerous disgusting low iq board, it's depressing and it fucking sucks there's no better alternative
If only mods weren't so fucking useless

It's a problem inherent in this being an anonymous board. Anonymity is also bad for an art critique board because you don't know if the person giving advice has any credibility. Add to OP's hit list: Anon starts thread asking for advice but posts an unrelated image instead of his actual work.

>>7766570
Being anonymous has nothing to do with it. Other boards work (mostly) fine, but /ic/ is straight up garbage because of little to no moderation

>>7766561
The alternative is never coming here more than really necessary, and if you do, don't come here expecting anything other that literal feces and teenage discord drama.
The arts just attract the worst kind of social rejects and changing places won't do shit.

>>7766509 (OP)
i only use this to download stuff do you all really try to socialize here?

>>7766509 (OP)
/pol/ was right

>>7766580
Then why are you posting right now? Stop trying to act above it all, you're probably one of the trouble makers we're talking about.

The saddest part is, they aren't teenagers.

>>Anons not wanting to draw backgrounds
They are practicing anatomy/characters, you hardly see finished pieces
>>Threads about "gatekeeping" artists
any hobby that doesn't gatekeep gets infested
>>Anime artists calling basic fundamentals like construction and anatomy "psyops"
animoids don't know better
>>American anons actually thinking they can become mangakas if they learn Japanese and move to Japan
A couple found some success in the doujin scene, and some anons who post here show up on anime credits.

>>7766631
okay devil's advocate, explain this one

SEA dunning kruger trying to get a legit answer on how to render complex materials, hindered by a language barrier and inability to know how to post in a single thread/beg

>>7766509 (OP)
Basically all non-general threads are shit, which is kind of sad.
This isn't to imply that all generals are good, fuck no, /dtg/ for example is a pure shit that should've been banished to /g/ a decade ago, but generally most non-general threads are just low effort bait that retards latch onto and spend too much time arguing in/bumping.

There should be a background and landscape general but I'm worried it would be just me and like 2 other people posting

>>7766682
what would be a good non-general thread? anyone posting their creations gets funneled to a general.

>>7766715
The dtiys threads? Many of them don't get labeled as such, like >>7684799 for example, but it still has many great drawings within.

>>7766631
Being literal slave labor, getting paid less than japanese animators is not something to brag about little bro. They don't hire you because you're good. They hire you because you're cheap. Outsourcing killed the quality of the industry due to subpar cheap faggots being hired without knowing how to properly draw or animate japanese media.

>>7766731
>Outsourcing killed the quality of the industry
It does that to every industry. Outsourcing, or rather, off-shoring should be infinitely hated and condemned more than it currently is.

>>7766509 (OP)
>Anons not wanting to draw backgrounds
but I do want to draw them
they're just so fucking annoying

>>7766763
No, you're just an unskilled piece of shit.

>>7766763
Same, man, every time I try to draw a background I just cringe.

>Anime artists calling basic fundamentals like construction and anatomy "psyops"
>American anons actually thinking they can become mangakas if they learn Japanese and move to Japan
I recognize thinly veiled "muh anime" rent free thread.
Know that whatever you draw right now is useless dogshit no one cares about unless it's anime/cartoon/comic/stylization. Hard facts.

>>7766763
>>7766778
I used to hate drawing backgrounds but now I think they're the most fun thing to draw. I love creating nice architecture for my characters to walk around in.

>>7766630
Nah, they have some playbook for trolling this board specifically. I didn't save it because I can't be bothered, but they're here.

>>7766509 (OP)
if you also have a passing interest in literature, I highly suggest you never go to /lit/ as well

>>7766764
eat shit you retarded nigger

>>7766787
>no one cares about unless it's anime/cartoon/comic/stylization. Hard facts.
So basically anything besides hyper realistic? Got it.

>>7766570
not being anonymous is even worse for art critique.
In the end the best art critique is paid, but even then he may play nice for repeat customers and good word of mouth

>>7766787
do people unironically believe this?

>>7766856
Just ask the cognitive whateverthefuck guy.

>>7766623
I dunno. Basedteens actually seem pretty chill on this board, to the extent I'm even aware of them. The most I ever really see of them are the occasional threads posting 'jak edits of classic art. Shartyfags tend to be attracted more to politically oriented boards. Also /r9k/ I guess. The obnoxious faggotry and mental illness on this board is peculiar to artistic types.

>I feel like I'm in a board full of teenagers on Discord and people who hate drawing.

It's not only the people who hate drawing, it's the people who like drawing as well. They all type as of they're fucking tumblr kids with their gay hugbox language.

>>7766856
Let's see.
>I draw realistic portraits and shitty landscapes. I'm mature artist who draws mature art not some weeb cartoon shiet!
This is what kids from ateliers, russian and chinese art schools draw for years until they finally can throw their shackles away and draw/paint what they actually like - furry porn and anime. Portraits and landscapes were working horses back in old days but not now. No one commissions them. No one reposts them. No one cares about them. You can't pickup girls with your epic portraits anymore. Be honest would you retweet/repost random portrait/landscape painting? They were already mundane ages ago. Main audience of of such drawings are turbo normalfags and those turbo normalfags have AI now. Unlike stylized art enjoyers turbo normalfags (your main clients) don't give a fuck about your art.

>>7766888
You sound deranged bro. There's audiences for realistic portraits and landscapes, and there's audience for more stylized cartoony works. But i forget, im on 4chan, /ic/ to be specific, so fags literally live in extremes and cannot comprehend different people like different things.

>>7766901
>different people like different things
UH OH, YOU SAID THE THING. Prepare for autistic anons who think NSFW artists on twitter that are mostly /int/ level at best are literally the pinnacle of all art.

>>7766894
>/v/tards did this! I'm not playing video games! I draw deep mature art. Not some weeb trash
Oh yes. The fine art. The peak dream for young pseuds.
If you're posting here you're already NGMI for fine art. Not only that but your country doesn't even have fine art culture you want to be part of unless you want to participate in modern art formalism dualism cockism left pseud masturbation. You need to be in real artschool you need to have connections and be part of fine art society of your country.
