@blissful sonnet Chrome OS is an operating system designed by Google and uses the Google Chrome web browser as its main user interface. As a result, Chrome OS primarily supports only web applications. Due to this type of infrastructure a driver for Wacom products is unable to be installed.
Depending on the Chromebook you have, and OS image provided by the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) limited pen support may be available and pen input will work with some older Wacom Tablets. Pen pressure, touch input and the tablet Expresskeys will not work in most cases.
Wacom's developers are continuing to work with Google for a future solution, currently however there is no driver support for Chrome OS and Wacom devices.

tropic halo
#

ah

lament turtle
#

from the Wacom Website

tropic halo
#

if you buy the one i have its gonna come up to $85-90

#

so might as well

#

just save a bit

#

and get sumn that will help you more

#

i wish i waited a bit more and did more research

rustic plume
#

A good tablet is hard to come by

blissful sonnet
#

from the Wacom Website
@lament turtle So even if I buy the tablet, I would need another computer?

tropic halo
#

mine is cool ig

#

you can get it if you wanna save a few dollars

rustic plume
#

What's your computer ba, BG

tropic halo
#

it works fine

blissful sonnet
#

Chromebook ;W:

tropic halo
#

you can configure the buttons on the pen

#

i got a punch of nibs

blissful sonnet
#

Oooo

rustic plume
#

Nibs are def essential

tropic halo
#

i lost all of em ;-;

#

i have 1 left

#

and thats the one in my pen

lament turtle
#

as it says the Older Wacom Tablets may work, but depends on the Chromebook Manufacturer

rustic plume
#

Hzhwhqh broooo

tropic halo
#

i was trying to open the bag when i just got it

tropic halo
#

and it exploded

#

to this day i have no idea where they went

blissful sonnet
#

WOuld this count as an older wacom Tablet @lament turtle

#

What are nibs?

lament turtle
#

One by Wacom is pretty well supported AFAIK

tropic halo
#

thats the one i have

lament turtle
#

nice pun 😛

tropic halo
#

heheh

blissful sonnet
#

tropic halo
#

nibs are the lil things you put in the pen

blissful sonnet
#

Ooo

tropic halo
#

blissful sonnet
#

And u can make it like change into eraser or a different brush?

tropic halo
#

the buttons
yeah

blissful sonnet
#

One by Wacom is pretty well supported AFAIK
@lament turtle was the one I sent supported??

lament turtle
#

no you have to do that from Software BG

tropic halo
#

the more buttons you have the more shortcutes you can have

blissful sonnet
#

Yeah, saw a bunch of videos of them doing that

lament turtle
#

dunno TBH, I cannot find anything online saying those support Chromebooks doe

tropic halo
#

honestly
just invest in a cheap $500 laptop BG

#

chromebooks are so limited

blissful sonnet
#

Yeah thats what Im thinking of

#

Mom has a laptop thats 500 dollers

#

But shes giving that to My sister ;W:

tropic halo
#

I-

#

even $400 would be fine

#

do you play any demanding games like CSGO and fortnite?

blissful sonnet
#

Nope

tropic halo
#

that you would need a powerful computer for?

#

ah

#

see

#

$400 could work

blissful sonnet
#

Time to inves

tropic halo
#

those can run all your art programs

blissful sonnet
#

well Ive been investing

tropic halo
#

and the games you play

blissful sonnet
#

already

tropic halo
#

like starbound

#

and such

lament turtle
#

Terraria and Stardew will run fine in $300 laptops

tropic halo
#

yeah

blissful sonnet
#

YES

tropic halo
#

but some art softwares are kinda

#

demanding

blissful sonnet
#

example?

lament turtle
#

thats true

tropic halo
#

like photoshop

rustic plume
#

Oh yuck

tropic halo
#

and ever krita

lament turtle
#

if you are getting a laptop get one with AMD Ryzen

blissful sonnet
#

example?

rustic plume
#

AMD ryzen is good right

tropic halo
#

and you never know what you might want to do on your laptop in the future
what you might get interested in
so invest in sumn that can run everything fairly well

rustic plume
#

^^^a good idea

blissful sonnet
#

I want to be an IT

#

is it demanding of a laptop?

lament turtle
#

AMD Ryzen is better than Intel in terms of performance for now as well as price so your art programs will run well

tropic halo
#

an IT?

blissful sonnet
#

Yup

tropic halo
#

expound?

blissful sonnet
#

Information Technology

#

I dont know what specifications I wnat

tropic halo
#

i know what IT is but you want to be an IT?

#

like an IT specialist?

#

or an IT teacher?

blissful sonnet
#

IT specialist

#

I wanted to be an IT teacher

#

but Idk how to teach ppl

#

;W;

tropic halo
#

pfft

#

i dont have the patience to be a teacher

#

i get pissed easily

blissful sonnet
#

XD

rustic plume
#

Lol I've always wanted to be a teacher but not to elementary or hs kids

sage cipher
#

Mate becoming an IT specialist requires patience as well

#

Lot of motivation and patience

blissful sonnet
#

I know

#

thats why I chose that over a teacher

#

because I have no idea how to teach people

@lethal belfry Best I can tell is that it's a dark iron blade with a bronze hilt and pommel, and maybe a red grip; could be depicted as dyed leather or something.

#

Grip looks like it'd have a little ring or band around the middle. Like this part but maybe only one band instead of two.

lethal belfry

yes that one hahah

tawny lynx

Yeah for anyone who might not know, most bachelor(ette)s have unused weapons. Only Emily and Shane don't have any, probably because they were the most recent ones made available.

lethal belfry
#

I wish they both give weapons

lament turtle
#

I like that all of them somewhat resemble a usable weapon and then there's Sam's which is an old guitar

lethal belfry

OOOHH YEESSS

I love his guittar

tawny lynx

Harvy's reflex mallet though.
Do No Harm

I remember when I saw his guittar I laugh a lot

tawny lynx

Well, I guess Hippocrates didn't exist in the Stardew Valley universe.

lethal belfry

Just making a joke about how you can use Harvey's medical mallet as a weapon.

OOHHHH ye ye hahaha lmao

And Elliot's pencil. Something something is mightier than the sword.

You can always just take a pic of your hand

#

And import it into your drawing program

#

And eyedrop it

blissful sonnet

tropic halo
#

That's what I do sometimes

#

I eyedrop skintone

blissful sonnet
#

So I finished

#

@grand cave So I finished it but idk if something happened to the skin tone. Cause as I was doing the background, something happened to the skin

#

tropic halo

Thank u!

It represents me by being confused 75% of the time

tropic halo

Ik it's probably your style but you should work a bit more on the eyes

blissful sonnet
#

Yeah, for some reason it wouldnt blend and its too late for me to care that much

tropic halo
#

What brush do you use to shade?

#

Air brush?

blissful sonnet
#

I set the mode to darken

#

and use the blur tool

tropic halo
#

Ah

#

Don't do that

#

Blur and air brush

#

Never use those to shade
Makes the work look

#

Strange

blissful sonnet
#

Ooo

tropic halo
#

Go for a water colour brush

#

What program do you use?

blissful sonnet
#

A water colour brush..

#

Ibis Paint X

tropic halo
#

Hmm
Never used that before

#

So idk what it offers

#

But air brush should never be used to shade
I used to do it

blissful sonnet
#

I havent used much of the program so I cant say if the brush is there

tropic halo
#

Made my work look cheap

my fnaf fangame idea:
you have 3 drones and you need to carry out task around the restaurant ( the map is pretty big ),taks make noise, some more than others, noise atracks animatronics, the drones have limited power, you can recharge them in your office, animatronics can damage your drones, once the drones get thier durability down to 5%, they will aoutomaticly back to your office,each animatronic dealsdiffent amount of damage and move diffrent speeds, drones can caouse a cinntroled shot to make animatronics move back the the prevous camera they were on ( if again zapped right after being zapped, they will move back to the caqmerea there were on before the camera they ere first shocked ), you dont have any doors, once you carry out all tasks aroudn the restaurant the night ends, each night there are more tasks and some tasks change places

I dont think I used 3d shapes right

gloomy turtle
#

not bad

mossy leaf
#

you did great with the shapes but the chest on the left just looks completely 2D instead of 3D, you could make the left arm be above the chest layer to make it look 3D

gloomy turtle
#

it helps to use lines to map the circumference of the shape and the direction it's leaning in

blissful sonnet
#

Hm

#

okay

#

Welp, at least I didnt suck

mossy leaf
#

yeah it looks great!

gloomy turtle
#

one thing is that the girl on the left looks like she's standing on her toes

storm meadow
#

Because she’s wearing heels

gloomy turtle
#

ye

storm meadow
#

I’m looking at the right shoulder of the lady on the right
The ball of the shoulder should be over the torso and not partly behind the torso

mossy leaf
#

here @blissful sonnet this simple line can make the person look more 3D in the chest area

storm meadow
#

YES THAT

#

applies to the one on the right too
which I think is more jarring

mossy leaf
#

the right shoulder seems fine in my opinion

storm meadow
#

Let me get my tablet on then

#

By “on the right” I mean the figure on the right

mossy leaf
#

ooooh

#

I thought you meant the right shoulder on the left person

storm meadow
#

Overall nice progress, BG!
Sorry I can’t help but had to put her on some swimming suit uwu

wanton flare
#

I dont think I used 3d shapes right
3d shapes are supposed to represent the perspective of the body parts, but your sketch looks like you just add random lines instead of thinking about form and position. for example, one of the pink haired girl's legs is straight, while the other is bent a little bit, but your sketch shows both legs as straight

blissful sonnet
#

OOOO

#

Okay

#

i still dont know how to do this tbh

wanton flare
#

i think it would help to study anatomy for a bit, like reading a book about it or watching a video lesson. unfortunately, i don't remember what book i used to study that

#

look for books/vids from professional artists who are really good at academic realism, but avoid lessons that focus on details too much

blissful sonnet
#

Welp time to scour the internet

#

Do u have any recommendations?

wanton flare
#

avoid quick tutorials and lessons from young amateurs, even if you think that the artist is skilled in realism. learning boring academic basics will save you a lot of time in the long run, no matter what style you want to achieve

#

if the author starts to talk about details like smaller muscles and bone structure, either find another resource or ignore that until you can get the basic structure right

storm meadow
#

My recommendation is the books by Andrew Loomis. I got them for my courses and they’ve been very useful.

#

I personally find that blocking is time consuming and it didn’t really help me learn back then. Still feel the same.
it’s just not my cup of tea.

wanton flare
#

i had the opposite experience, and i still use it when i need to draw something in perspective. i don't think it's a good idea to skip it as a beginner

blissful sonnet
#

Im reading the book that Soy recommended and while I learnt things from it

#

I feel like Im not ready for it

#

I dont know how to explain it

#

but imma continue reading and see if I can understand it

wanton flare
#

stan prokopenko is a pretty good teacher and has a lot of helpful videos on his youtube channel, though there are so many that it can be confusing

storm meadow
#

There’re many other books out there too
I think a lot of free PDFs

#

I was trained as a traditional figure painter so there’re probably some different ideas.

blissful sonnet
#

Yeah I found a pdf on the book u said Soy

storm meadow
#

Loomis’ probably not for beginner-beginner
When I learnt blocking perspective and proportion, I literally did solid blocking and not 3D. Still worked.
But like I said, it’s is prolly not what you seek.

#

The “3D” is when we start to shade ah

wanton flare
#

you need good lineart to shade properly. if your lineart looks flat, you probably won't be able to make it look 3d with shading

#

god knows i still struggle with that

storm meadow
#

box-blocking is just a case of curiosity for me. Also shading is highly influenced by not only the shape and lighting but also color. Anything can be flat with flat color palette too.
Starting from shape is fun but it’s also good to look up masterworks or works of your fav artists and see how they go with their styles.

#

just look up examples and draw a lot I guess SDVpuffersweats
Good luck with your journey

wanton flare
#

anything can be flat with flat color palette
grayscale photos want to know your location

storm meadow
#

a lot of people tint grayscale and honestly that takes a lot of skills
Because it could go too shiny

#

what I mean by color is that ofc you can tint it but the outcome is based on color choices

#

Grayscale is imho easier form of shading. The ???? things start when we try to add colors.

I was reading trying to get hints off of ur conversations

but i think you should just add "joints" where there are actual joints

Now I reverted back a step

I prefer your ball knees
And I agree with elli about putting the joins where they are

blissful sonnet
#

Uh Soy, quick question

storm meadow
#

It seems that you get the 3D tube style PaintZoop

Im now confused on what the book is telling me with the spheres on the legs and arms

Oh I see how you get all the rings here
He’s just demonstrating the space inside the body

blissful sonnet

So thats what foreshortening is

#

imma try again

#

Foreshortening is the perspective in which what’s in the front seems bigger than what’s in the back

wanton flare
storm meadow
#

Yeah, Loomis’ might be too wordy and hard to understand

wanton flare
#

it's a good idea to watch them in order without skipping to parts that you find more interesting

as a beginner, i tried to skip basic shapes and went right to learning anatomy. after a couple of years i had to go back and learn it anyway, then study anatomy again with my new knowledge. i still go back to basics from time to time, actually

blissful sonnet
#

me back

#

Imma continue trying to improve my sketch

rustic plume
#

thats good!!

blissful sonnet
#

Soy, i would need ur judgement also

rustic plume
#

tbh i'd suggest avoid boxes and use more fluid lines

blissful sonnet
#

so like ovals?

storm meadow
#

Good legs!
The figures stand very solid and not defying gravity in some way ahah
I like how you adjust the knee position

rustic plume
#

^^^also really good how you did the figure on the left the most

storm meadow
#

Yeah, I just have a feeling that you’d prefer learning with more fluid shapes

blissful sonnet
#

Yeah I was experimenting with the joints

rustic plume
#

Yeh joints bend and they connect to a lot of stuff

#

so they def shift

blissful sonnet
#

and then I had to find a way to make the left person's right leg is behind the left leg

rustic plume
#

It good how you figured out a way to show that

#

Problem solving!!

blissful sonnet
#

Soy I was wondering what u meant by fluid shapes

#

and Frog

rustic plume
#

Idk how to explain, but dont worry basically making perfect lines

storm meadow
#

A bit for foreshortening for the leggy of the left figure
Basically the leg closer to the screen will be a big better as you can see from the ref

rustic plume
#

Hold your pen a bit looser

blissful sonnet
#

Ooo

storm meadow
#

Fluid shapes to me mean not box-box

rustic plume
#

^^

blissful sonnet
#

Okay

rustic plume
#

I usually find myself using triangles

#

or trapezoids

blissful sonnet
#

and Soy did I somewhat achieve the legs

storm meadow
#

You did! The knees position does it for me
Also the left leg already looks like it’s in the front of the right and not on the same plane

blissful sonnet
#

YAY

#

Though i still need practice ;W;

rustic plume
#

Yeah pravtise is always good

mossy leaf
#

Yeah it looks really good!

rustic plume
#

Keep it up, BG!!

#

You improving

storm meadow
#

One important thing is that you can block out the proportion by instinct
As in you know the thighs should end there and the shoulder should be this wide in regards to the head, etc

blissful sonnet
#

Ooo

storm meadow
#

so keep practicing and get that instinct in SDVpufferblush

blissful sonnet
#

Got it! Now time to continue practicing!

storm meadow
#

If you feel something isn’t right, take a break and come look at it later
You might get a eureka moment like damn I knew it! the legs are a bit too short

#

we are rooting for youuuu SDVpufferthumbsup

rustic plume
#

i'd suggest staring at a mirror too

#

look at how your body works?

idk i would measure stuff with my foot

like "ah foot same as forearm length okay"

It makes me rlly happy knowing I have some who are supporting me through my journey of actually knowing art

RIP Micko

storm meadow
#

I don’t think it’s that exact irl haha
But it’s a rule of thumb for drawing
Actually I don’t really look at forearm while drawing feet because most of the time there’s perspective at work

mossy leaf
#

big feet are useful since they allow my to climb and run faster GWkyooHappyDay

blissful sonnet
#

Jealous

rustic plume
#

oh wacc

wanton flare
#

tbh i'd suggest avoid boxes and use more fluid lines
structuring a body with fluid lines and ovals can confuse you when you're starting out. they're like the icing on the cake, not a replacement for simplified structure. it should go gesture => boxing the figure out as a 3d object => smoothing the angles and adding details. if you're skilled enough to do the first two steps in your head, you can skip them, but to achieve that you need to be really good at understanding the perspective and structure of the human body

#

when you structure the body with boxes, those lines help you understand the form and place the details. smooth fluid lines come afterwards

grand cave
wanton flare
#

proko actually explains structure really well in his robo bean and mannequinization videos from the playlist i linked earlier
