First, the range specification for Plot is wrong. Plot expects three
Elements, not four. So it should be

Do[Plot[Sin[x - c], {x, 0, 4 Pi}, Ticks -> None],
{c, 0,  2 Pi - Pi/10, Pi/10}]

But this will give you no output too, because Do returns Null (nothing).

You can do the following:

Do[Print@Plot[Sin[x - c], {x, 0, 4 Pi}, Ticks -> None],
  {c, 0, 2 Pi - Pi/10, Pi/10}]

or

Table[Plot[Sin[x - c], {x, 0, 4 Pi}, Ticks -> None],
  {c, 0, 2 Pi - Pi/10, Pi/10}]
