i recently read a small essay called The Death of DeviantArt and the art-site shaped hole haunting the Internet, and have been thinking about this yawning void where deviantArt should be. deviantArt was a huge part of my learning to draw when i was really young, and while deviantArt isn't... gone, it's certainly not the same, right?
and well, that's what the forums are for. consider it the first block. are YOU an artist? do you want to get good at BEING an artist? let's talk shop, share resources, process guides, tips and tricks. post studies you've done, stuff you're not sure of, stuff you want to fix. there are no stupid questions.
some initial resources:
- File Garden, host your files here
- Line of Action, for quick figure references
- Advice & Tutorials :: Diosmaden, my good friend harrie's tutorials for comics making
