You guys are so inefficient with your time it's crazy. I've seen people go from early-intermediate amateurs to junior illustrators in 12-18 weeks. They work all day, every day to get there, but it's worth it. They don't spend years at the intermediate plateau. They don't waste thousands of hours on social media. You need to sort out your shit and take this craft seriously or pack it in. A lot of you guys are making progress at 5% of your capacity.
>>7729295>I've seen people go from early-intermediate amateurs to junior illustrators in 12-18 weeks.Cool, so you know a guy who did that. What about you? Why are you here trying to gloat that someone, other than you, managed this? I can't think of anything more pathetic than gloating about an apparent friend's accomplishments.
is this another one of those projection threads where you bait people into providing you excuses for your own failures?
>>7729295Sounds like bullshit, got any evidence to back up those claims? Or your standards are too low.Fastest improvement I've seen is a pro 3D character artist going to pro 2D character artist in 1 year but he was already good and a decent amount of the fundamentals overlap.
>>7729295I have a day job.
>>7729295Nah the majority of these retards will never make it and are coping until reality drops onto their heads in their 40s.
>>7729295>They work all day, every day to get thereever thought that perhaps this might have something to do with it?People who start after ~20 basically have no time whatsoever. Modern serf tier.Use your 3.5 hours and don't bet on counting using your mobile during commute as potential productive time.
>>7729455>People who start after ~20 basically have no time whatsoever. Modern serf tier.Why is this? We're more productive than ever. People should have way more free time than they do.
>>7729295some people werent born with a talent
and what about perma-ints like me that maxed out all their stats? I'm capped and I can't get any better, so all drawing is purely for expression or finding original ideas, and I can't draw something original every single day.
>>7729781how do you reach int but just stop improving? if you made it to int, that means you know how to improve, right? so how did you just...stop improving?
>>7729789my int status is fake, All I learned how to do is how to copy refs and fraud out lines
>>7729814You're good as you are, babe. Don't want you improving no--I mean, just express yourself. Maybe work on that project. You got this.
>>7729295I don't know how to because I'm autistic and don't have a stable schedule. Live in a noisy area and not even my noise cancelling headphones work so I genuinely don't know how to concentrate.
>>7729818so what do you do all day? obviously you must concentrate on something, even if that thing is jacking off.
>>7729901Read a bunch of philosophy, religious stuff, and then go hard into porn when I get too much stimulus.
>>7729922as an asexual person I never understood porn. don't you get bored of seeing the same anatomy in different positions? it's just a bunch of floppy muscle and fat
>>7729923You're going to hate drawing humans if you see it that way. I am starting to see that way though since I will get old and die. None of these women actually even are enjoying sex or have souls. I still relapse out of addiction and really just a force of habit I developed whenever I got too much stimulus.
>>7729415wagecuckery is anti art
>>7731619I know. Unfortunately I have to eat.
>>7731788Go to Asia and teach English and get yourself a tropical fuckette.
>>7729295Use this board to laugh at pathetic losers and inspire confidence in yourself. Whenever I need an ego boost I come here and look at everyone's work and the stupid shit they say. You'll notice how lazy, narcisstic, and hopeless everyone is. Its like a rotting forest full of little gollums
>>7731814Honestly same. I like coming to the /beg/ threads just to look at all the faggots whining about "HOW DO I DO DIS???" and "WHY CANT I DRAW ANIME YET????//", foreverially delitized and unable to improve or even have half-decent ideas. I don't know how full grown adults want to draw fucking anime of all things. I watched anime as a kid and even then I liked Spike and Mike and Western animation projects more. In less than eight months I've studied bridgman, started competently painting oil and watercolor, and have had my art recognized in two magazines and a local gallery.Man, being unemployed rules.
>>7731832>In less than eight months I've studied bridgman, started competently painting oil and watercolor, and have had my art recognized in two magazines and a local gallery.Absolutely based.
>>7731832Using all these words and yet you won’t post your work
>>7731806I'm ESL.
>>7729295>They don't spend years at the intermediate plateauDude, I spend years at the beginner plateau.
all you constructoids have to do is just show one human being who studied all these old farts and actually succeeded as an artist as a direct result of that practice. Until you do, practice is nothing but a meme.
>>7731851>won’tI don't remember it being requested, fagbait
