How to make your art look nasty: a comprehensive guide. This is your monthly reminder that I am a real artist and not just some guy who lives in a dumpster and puts all of my trash on display. Fun Fact: I discovered this technique because I was originally going to make a normal, clean digital drawing but was too lazy to do the lineart all over again in IbisPaint, then I decided I liked it better this way. This entire project was made because of a happy accident.
PLEASE READ: I shared this before but then it got really popular and started clogging my inbox. Resharing it now and I’m hoping that the hype has died down. This art tutorial is sponsored by my ADD. NOTE: I did this in IbisPaint X. As far as I know, this might not work on other drawing programs. Don’t yell at me if your program doesn’t have an extract line drawing filter. I used my own custom brushes but really, any brush that fits the criteria will work just fine. Might upload the brush codes if you ask politely. EDIT: Woah, 20 views already??? It’s only been up for two days. This is ridiculous, looks like I’m finally useful for something after all. EDIT 2: WOAH THIS GOT A LOT OF FAVORITES. IT’S ONLY THE THIRD DAY, WHAT IS HAPPENING??????? EDIT 3: WOAH OKAY 100+ NOTIFS FOR THIS PROJECT TODAY, THIS IS GETTING RIDICULOUS. I DID NOT EXPECT Y’ALL TO LIKE IT THIS MUCH. EDIT 4: NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT. THIS DID NOT GET 200 VIEWS AND 90 HEARTS WITHIN THE SPAN OF A WEEK. THAT’S JUST RIDICULOUS, THANK YOU SO MUCH. EDIT 5: No, this is crazy. I did NOT just get 100 hearts, 72 faves and 269 views over the course of a week. There must be some mistake here. I’m not the mainstream famous guy. I’m the funny meme guy. You’ve mistaken my degeneracy for the work of someone else, there’s no way I got all of this attention without committing a crime of some sort. EDIT 6: WOAH OKAY I DID NOT JUST GET 336 VIEWS ON A POORLY MADE ART TUTORIAL. NO. IMPOSSIBLE.
