i have no idea what you're referring to but those guys are sharp as fuck


Nothing yet. :v
Swooshylines aren't my idea though, and red is just because it stands out within a grey sketch. Any good artist would tell you that flow lines (as they're probably called) are good to use, but in particular, i nicked the term "swooshylines" from Android Arts, who also has one of the better art tutorials out there.

Draw a fist coz u didn't draw it for long time xD

aw shit son thanks bro <3

Ouf, i think i answered this before, but it depends on how we define starting art. My very first sprites were made back in early 2007, but they were obviously godawful. It wasn't until october 2008 that i began making progress towards not sucking every dick on the planet.
From then and until around february 2011, i pretty much only donked around with sprites and pixel "art". That month is where i started drawing free-hand with a mouse; more specifically, that's where i started drawing dorf comics.
And then, in june 2013, i finally got me a Wacom tablet. This is probably where it really took off, and in the recent days, it's going even faster because i'm finally starting to overcome my anxiety. So yeah, those are the important milestones. :v

Also, for the second part of the question, YES. Unfortunately, one has to be REALLY GOOD to actually make a living like this, or at least offer something that people would be willing to pay for in one way or the other. I wouldn't be doing all these doodles for y'alls if i didn't enjoy it, nor would i ever have gotten past kindergarten-tier drawings if i wasn't actually passionate about it.

I totally used to think like that as well, but as it is, anyone can learn to draw, just like how anyone can learn how to ride a bike. Well, unless you literally don't have legs, of course. :v

oh mein gott hands are the evilest things but i need to practice them so here goes

Would you agree that :v is the best face?

I think :U is a close second.

DAT, curiously enough. Apparently they're gone now. :I

i prefer pork actually

:v

Yep, that's me. Not really feeling for a self-portrait though, if i want to depict myself then i'll just use a camera. :v

also your thing is still coming don't worry

MARK THIS DATE IN YOUR CALENDAR, because perhaps you'll be like "man when did i make my first thing??" and then you'll actually know! I know i can't find my first things any more, even though i'm not sure if i want to. :P

Nah. :v can be applied to anything.


happiness-
YAY :v

sadness-
I'm pretty sad right now :v

being angry-
I'M SO PISSED :v

being calm-
I'm pretty chill :v

It is an emotionless face and therefore you can decide what it means :v

i'm still with :v

But in any case, this isn't the thread where you are to be arguing about the superiority of whatever smiley you favour. I'm pretty chill in terms of what qualifies as shitposting, but i'd prefer to not have the more legit posts drowned out by noise.

also for the love of god pidgenere don't use so much whitespace in your posts
