Spreadin' the gospel.
Can't afford art school?
After seeing post like this 👇
And this gem 👇
As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.
Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.
📺Here is my list:
Proko (Free, mostly teaches anatomy and how to draw people. But does have art talks and teaches the basics.)
Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard and teaches you everything)
Aaron Rutten (free, tips about art, talks about art programs and the best products for digital art)
BoroCG (free, teaches a verity of art mediums from 3D modeling to digital painting. As well as some tips that can be used across styles)
Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)
Jesus Conde (free, teaches digital painting and has classes in Spanish)
Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)
Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price. Mostly teaching character designs and simple backgrounds.)
SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)
Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)
The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney. Mostly nature art)
Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)
Sinix Design (has some tips on drawing people)
Winged canvas (art school for free on a verity of mediums)
Bob Ross (just a good time, learn how to paint, as well as how too relax when doing art. "there are no mistakes only happy accidents", this channel also provides tips from another artist)
Scott Christian Sava (Inspiration and provides tips and advice)
Pikat (art advice and critiques)
Drawbox (a suggested cheap online art school, made of a community of artist)
Skillshare (A cheap learning site that has art classes ranging from traditional to digital. As well as Animation and tutorials on art programs. All under one price, in the USA it's around $34 a month)
Human anatomy for artist (not a video or teacher but the site is full of awesome refs to practice and get better at anatomy)
Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.
📚Here is my list:
The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.
"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.
"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.
"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.
"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.
"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.
"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.
"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.
"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.
Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.
📝As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. If you want to go fancy Michaels is always a good place for traditional supplies. They also get in some good sales and discounts. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are usually more expensive.
For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.
💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.
Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates. Galaxy, Windows, macOS, iPad, iPhone, Android, or Chromebook device. )
Procreate ( pay once for $9.99 usd, IPAD & IPHONE ONLY)
Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, animation and more. Free)
PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)
Krita (Free)
mypaint (free)
FireAlpaca (free)
Aseprite ($19.99 usd but has a free trail, for pixel art Windows & macOS)
Drawpile (free and for if you want to draw with others)
IbisPaint (free, phone app ONLY)
Medibang (free, IPAD, Android and PC)
NOTE: Some of these can work on almost any computer like Clip and Sai but others will require a bit stronger computer like Blender. Please check their sites for if your computer is compatible.
So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.
I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.
Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

Otto Katz.



As you can tell, his design is all around the place, and if you're a moot on Discord, then you'll know that Otto isn't originally from this Dogman AU, but from my story, @toonedoutofficial !
Otto was originally a less fleshed-out character and just meant to traumatize Julius, but here, he actually serves a purpose! Of course, he's still awful, but his story, at least to me, is fascinating.

AU time again! No, I'm not done for tonight


Unfortunately, I do not have much of him; but just know he's one of the only Juliai (plural for Julius) who is actually happy and not constantly suffering

AU time! Yes, I've been keeping a LOT from Tumblr- mostly because I forget to post

Villain AU art dump! C/TW for upsetting themes for the last 2




Okay, yes, I know Katz doesn't- y'know, LOOK Dogman-ified under his suit, but believe me when I say it's just an art style choice and nothing else. Like, genuinely, i just like this art style better for when Katz is a villain, as it gives me more freedom for emotion. :)

The Butterfly Project||Dogman AU (Pls read for context. Also, sry if the quality is bad)


Okay, so, first of all, y'all are probably like: Who the fuck are ANY of these characters? For quick context, Julius, the main character I'm clearly portraying, is originally from Alice Comedies, a show from the early 20s. I'd go to @toonycryptid (sry for the notification if you got any) for more information on the show as a whole, as they make a lot of art and rant about the actual episodes of Alice Comedies! But I wouldn't mind rambling on about Alice Comedies myself another time. :3 Now, really, the only ACTUAL OC's in here are Otto, Emuna, Dr. Jingles, Priest, and "The Bad Men". MJ is Margaret J. Winkler (one of the distributors of many films/comics and one of the main people who worked on Alice Comedies), but toonified into a fictional character.
Everyone else? Well, they are actual characters in Alice Comedies (Janie's name was fan-made by Toony Cryptid, I believe), but Dogman-ified and re-imagined writing-wise.
You might notice the lack of actual Dogman characters- and that's because, well...You guys already know Dogman and its universe, characters, and stories! But none of y'all know Julius and his story and don't care about him, which is my job to fix! Don't worry, all these characters, minus Julius, are all backstory figures that in present day, aren't- well, present. A lot of art I'ma be showing off today will be based on the world-building of this Dogman AU pertaining to Julius. For some quick disclaimers, I want to be honest right off the bat- this AU handles some really dark topics that stray from mental illness to prejudice and allegories for even MORE serious and dark topics. I'm unsure how much backlash I'll get (if I get any traction at all) once I upload the other sketches, but you know what? I've worked too hard on his project to NOT share it. /lh I'm unsure about the title, but it was the only one I had lying around.

Extra planning information, but a lot of this is changed

Katz Redesign
Original design

Redesign!
God, I love him so much, ya'll don't fucking understand. And. Uh...Yes! This is the same as the Julius I inserted into Dogman! Boy, do I have many sketches to share! And of course, Katz, this son of a bitch, is partially me as well. He likes to come out and be an asshole often.

Kätzchen

I should probably upload more of my whiteboard drawings eheh- Anyway, this diva snuck up on me a few days ago. She/He's kind of new, so I'm unsure what to do with them. Surely they won't cause any problems!

Pe$o$ Y Pul$acione$ (Dogman AU)




World Information -Cats aren't native to the America's -Dogs ARE native to the America's -Tijuana can be a dangerous place if you're not careful
Omg, I'm so ecstatic to finally put this AU out. No joke, I cooked with it for less than 2-3 days, and got this. I initially watched a Mexican Dogman AU on TikTok, which was simply Dogman if it took place in Mexico. I got the same idea to do something similar, but dive into darker and more realistic themes, like poverty and traditional values. But, being the Mexican Immigrant I am, I wondered: "Okay, so what if Petey was an immigrant and stuff?" And now we're here! I hope to entice some Dogman fans who've been looking for fresh AUs.
Spanish Translation- I can speak and write in Spanish, but I'm lazy so I use a translator
Los gatos no son originarios de América. Los perros SÍ son originarios de América. Tijuana puede ser un lugar peligroso si no tienes cuidado.
¡Dios mío! ¡Estoy tan feliz de finalmente poder publicar este AU! En serio, estuve preparándolo menos de dos o tres días y por fin lo conseguí. Al principio, vi un AU mexicano de Dogman en TikTok, que simplemente sería Dogman si transcurriera en México. Pensé en hacer algo similar, pero profundizando en temas más oscuros y realistas, como la pobreza y los valores tradicionales.
Pero, siendo la inmigrante mexicana que soy, me pregunté: "¿Y si Petey fuera un inmigrante y todo eso?".
¡Y aquí estamos! Espero atraer a algunos fans de Dogman que han estado buscando nuevos AU.
