Architectural draftsman: future-proof?
Hi, I've read a lot about how the draftsman is threatened by digitalization and is dying out. Do you agree? What further training opportunities does the draftsman have?
What kind of table do you draw at?
Sometimes drawing gives you terrible neck pain. So, I'm trying to change my sitting position while drawing. How do you sit when drawing? Do you think professional artists draw at a flat desk, or do they use special drawing tables? Option 1: Just normal flat? Option 2: A slanted drawing table? Option 3: A drawing…
How do I learn to draw realistically?
Hello and I would like to learn to draw realistically. I would like to learn to draw realistically because I want to be able to draw everything. Many people say you have to have "talent" to be able to draw, but I wasn't born a child prodigy who would be able to draw well right…
I want to continue learning to draw, but I find it difficult. What should I do?
Hello, I'm m/19, I'm having trouble teaching myself how to draw. I find that I have hardly used any of my free time to practice it. But I made mistakes that I shouldn't have made: having a certain "drawing style" even though it actually develops itself, if I made mistakes or used the wrong proportions…
Digital drawing/graphics tablet?
Hi, I'd like to learn to draw digitally. My question is, what would be best? A tablet (are there even proper graphics tablets, or is it just a simple tablet you can draw on?), with or without a keyboard? Or one that you have to connect to your PC, which requires a specific app on…
Why is it necessary to have perspective even in “flat” or “2D” drawings?
Hello, this might be a stupid question, but when I look at some 2D drawings, whether anime/manga, cartoons, etc., it doesn't matter whether the artist draws in 2D or flat, they're still drawn in "3D" to create a certain perspective. And I mean this 3D as an illusion, because the drawing itself is 2D. Why…
Is it okay to make mistakes when drawing?
Hello, I'm m/19 and still a beginner at drawing. I think criticism is important when drawing. The problem is that I take criticism too seriously, especially when drawing a person. There are many things you have to be careful about when drawing realistically. Even when I try to draw “3D”, mine are pretty flat. Art…
How do I reset the 3D style in Archicad 27?
Good day, I wanted to try out the 3D styles in Archicad 27. However, I want to get the standard 3D view back, but I don't know how. Closing and reopening 3D mode doesn't help, nor does closing and reopening the program… It always remains this crappy vector 3D mode or the one you set…
Which graphics tablet is better (with links)?
Hey people. I wanted to start with digital drawing. And I wanted to see how it was in general. Whether I could handle the program (which I'll get separately) and the tablet (I'm a beginner, after all). Unfortunately, I don't know which is really better. Or whether the price justifies the extra 70-80 euros. Thanks…
Good graphics tablet for 200€?
Are there any other graphics tablets (pen displays) for around 200 euros besides the Artist 12 Gen2 from XP-Pen?
XP-Pen Artist 12 or 13.3 Pro?
I currently have €200 and want to get the XP-Pen 12 Gen2, but I just saw that the 13.3 Pro is only €50 more. Is it worth saving a bit more and getting the 13.3 Pro, or is there not much of a difference?
