>>7137378whenever, it doesn't matter at the end of the day
>>7137378its not like anyone would see it
>>7137379>>7137381It actually matters and people will see it Imagine sharing your ugly art on the internet, people will laugh at you and laugh how terrible it is. It will destroy your self esteem.
>>7137382100 years from now you wont exist and the people who saw it will be erased. Do you still care?
>>7137382Holy ego, Batman!
>>7137382It doesn't, they won't, and it won't. You're really vain. People OTI don't flame noobs for being noobs, since everyone has to start somewhere.
>>7138142this gave me the courage to pick up a crayon thanks anon
I've been posting my work since the day I bought a tablet and the worst thing to happen to me was finding out nobody gave a shit.I got called out on my mediocre skill a couple times but it was part of a bigger list of grievances over percieved plagiarism or racist/homophobic shit I drew, nobody ever decided to just gangstalk me for six months just because I drew hands weird.
>>7137378Give yourself a year at least.Posting your shit publicly as a beginner will do nothing but embarrass and demoralize you
People just don't care overall. Some people might even like to see sketches and WIPs but no one is going to think any less of you if you post them.
>>7137382Do you know how incredibly self-absorbed you have to be to think anyone cares enough about you to do that to you right off the bat?

>>7137378I started posting art regularly last December. Vid related is what I posted yesterday.
>>7139308But you assholes here are very insulting. You’ve even told me I’m NGMI and YWNBAW.
>>7141257Why do you give value to what users of this site say?
>>7141898Some of the greatest artists of the modern generation have once posted on /ic/
>>7141914And what would you say is their percentage of the users and how many of them have said NGMI and YWNBAW with their artist personas?
>>7141928Do you have a point?
>>7141247on whaat platform did u post ur stuff?
>>7137382BASED>>7139308i do it to begfaggots that are worse than me to feel better about myself but in the eyes of a pro i wont be so different from them
You have to start somewhere
>>7137378>At what point should someone post their sketches or art shitposts on social media for the world to see?in 2007.yes, I'm implying that you are 2 decades too late.
>>7137382>THEY'RE ALL GOING TO LAUGH AT YOUOkay Carrie.Don't go to prom.
>>7138142I routinely delete my old work. People message me all mad and confused like "why did you delete that one it was my favorite" and I tell them to kill themselves. If you liked it so much you'd have saved it short sighted retard.If art is about personal expression, only I get to decide what is and isn't worthy to express. My art represents me, it's a map of my mind and experiences and a reflection of my work ethic. If I decide I don't like it, fuck it, it's gone. If I decide it's worth expressing, I'll express it.>>7139028This anon gets it. It is incredibly demoralizing to look back and realize you shared a pile of garbage, it creates the same feeling you have when you think about something embarrassing and humiliating you did as a child.Everyone has to start somewhere, but sharing ultra beg stuff is a recipe for disaster in the same way feeding people uncooked food is. You'll make them sick, you'll feel like an incompetent ass, and everybody loses.Grind for a few years, perform an honest assessment and comparison, then take the plunge. After that, if you hate your old work, you can just delete it and keep going.
>>7139308The first comment I ever received when I posted my beg art online (this was back before social media, it was a forum or some such,) was "artists like you make the world uglier with every drawing. You lessen the value of art itself with this trash."I was like eleven.Anyway, I'm mentally ill, but at least I have 50k followers on the internet, now.
>>7145982They will actually laugh at you, tho. Every time I see beg art online I cringe and laugh. I might not tell them they suck but everyone thinks it, and you know it.
