All you budding artists out there.
14 years ago
I'm nothing compared to that majority of the artists on this website. However, like most of you, I try my best to try and learn how to be better.
I'm one of those people who learn by example. I need to be shown how to do something, I'm too retarded to try and figure it out on my own.
Sadly, the majority of artists; not all mind you, when I ask for advice or how they did something. I'm ignored of told that they don't want to tell people how they drew something or came up with something.
I want to respect that. I understand that they worked hard to be where they are today, but there are people out there who learn differently. Who can't afford to go to art school and etc.
I'm going to be honest with you all. I use Photoshop CS3. I've been using Photoshop for a VERY long time. The thing is, outside of the brush and eraser tool. I'm pretty much lost on how the program works. I just simply want help but no one wants to give it to me.
Well unlike those artists, I want to teach and help those who are trying to learn. So I am offering help and guidance in the form of tutorial.
Is there something you're struggling with? Perspective, foreshortening, how to make that sex position look less awkward. Coloring, shading, etc. You name it and I will try to explain it to the best of my ability. You need something redlined. I'll add it to the tutorial and I'll explain how I do it.
What do you say guys? This is for artists of any level. We can all learn from each other.
Edit: People! I'm the one offering the tutorials. I'm not asking for them!

Anyway..I'm far from a pro artist. In fact, I get maybe 2 commissions in the course of a year, but if you have any questions, I'd love to help.
I keep a sketchbook over at Conceptart.org, too. It contains just about everything from the moment I decided I wanted to go pro with art. If it can be of some use, then I encourage you to stop by. (Nsfw warning though. I do lots of anatomy studies)

I'm the one offering help in this case.
but I will gladly help with the program, to the best of my abilities (used Photoshop years ago for a Graphic Design class)
Oh, and you're a very good artist. You just need to finish what you start.
But thanks for the offer.
Or do you want to try and accomplish a particular look? Cause I can color numerous different ways.
What about 3D makes it difficult? Cause despite 2D drawings, the concept of 3D is always in the back of your mind.
I could really do with facial expressions tutorials, hand and feet, myself. Although poses would also help.
