Does anyone here know of any sites, tutorials, etc, where I could begin learning how to draw and create art? The more I look at anime, anime-style artwork and yes, hentai too, the more I long to create the same beautiful pieces. And I would absolutely Love to bring my characters in my head to life and to create scenes, invoke emotion, and maybe one day, even create a manga, or a VN. Along with learning Japanese on the side... who knows where this could lead?
So! Long story short! Do any of you have any recommendations on where I should start? Maybe some free online courses I could try, useful books etc. Ultimately, I want to be able to draw in the anime style and create beautiful art and hentai like this:
Now I understand however that many people suggest learning to draw realistically, and "from life" first before attempting to draw something already stylized such as anime/manga style, otherwise you're severely limiting yourself and potentially learning to draw with bad habits.
Please know that at this point and time, art school is not an option for me, and I'd like to learn without going to an actual school if I can, besides, I enjoy being self-taught, but of course, I can't learn anything without some help.
Any help dear friends? Thank you!
More examples:
P.S. Drawing hair, fur and anatomy looks like a nightmare...
Also, if you're an artist yourself, any advice and/or encouragement you could give me and others like me who feel like we aren't capable of creating such beauty? Something to keep us going with art, to help us to keep trying to improve our drawing, God knows we need it.
