your composition and flow get much better when you are not stressed. If you draw every day then you're often creating stress by setting expectations on yourself.

Idk why youre asking me
maybe im being autistic about how im intepreting your question but
its a tricky one
cuz today, the most 'realistic' image i can imagine is a photo. But if you saw a photo of medieval life, it would feel unrealistic. In the same way colorized photos of the <1930s feel unrealistic. If you want to you want to really evoke a sense of realism in you illustration, id draw inspiration from medieval artwork - capture a sense of the style as well as the content

I'm 25 and learning how to draw but nothing makes me want to draw less than remembering how old I am. Even if I spend like 8 hours a day drawing, I won't be decent until I'm 28, nearly 30. the vast majority of artists start drawing as a kid, which I wouldn't even mind, but art communities are overwhelmingly young. I can't even imagine trying to enter a community where the average member is in high school. Surely I'm not the only one who struggles with this. right? I'll be drawing, then remember my age, and suddenly I'll lose all motivation and can't even force myself to continue.

>Who is dhis Pure Fool? Cometh he not in green, like Spring?

McDonald's Breakfast: ABSOLUTELY ONIONS

With how much we just love Ilya on this board, some of us must have some of the things he's scrubbed from the internet backed up, right?

I know he had a manga that died after one issue, but at least there's reference to that online. I remember a specific music video he was part of that's fucking impossible to find, though.

It was about an orange foxgirl going about her day, then she gets raped by a werewolf. Some shit happens, then she finds out that the werewolf was actually a regular guy and falls in love with him.

I have such a strong memory of it, but I cannot find any reference online to it and I'm convinced there has to be more shit he's tried to get rid of.

This. literly everything in that pic is referenced and not traced. literly every artist does what he described, studing and doing a master copy of another artwork. If you're not doing this, you are a shit artist.
It's highly productive to do a master study. It's not nearly as productive to trace. They are not the same.
>>7433586
It's literly a refecrece of a real person. Again if you are'nt drawing from life and studying reality, you're a shit artist.
Every artist if they're any good has 50+ sketchbooks full of this stuff in their closet. Most of it is never posted or shown. It would be one this if he's trying to hide the fact that he's refernecing, pretending it's all original. But he's not. he's transparent.
Stop spreading bullshit like this because you're going to make people think this is'nt what you need to do to get good. You are setting a beg trap.

1. how many hours a day do you spend drawing?
2. how long does it take you to finish a piece?

1. depends. I'm annoying inconsistent with my art, so for weeks I may draw nothing other than a stickman, but other days spend 4+ hours straight drawing

2. Also depends, maybe 30 mins to an hour, other times 8 hours

I've been doing 6 hours. 90 minute blocks with 30 minute breaks. Once I've gotten used to it I'm going to bump it up to 8 hours with the goal being 10 hours. The hardest part is being consistent on the days when I want to do literally anything else. So I've been using this app to award myself points for completing tasks. I can spend the points at the end of the day to jack off or watch a movie etc. It sounds stupid but if you hold yourself accountable to the 'game' it feels like you've earned recreation which is good for my brain that always feels overly guilty for not being productive.

yeah, i thought of that, but the delay between the canvas and the preview is too long to actually use it like that, at least in krita, fucking piece of shit software lol

>>7438110
Man do i have a solution for you!
You're using the wrong option, preview window isn't worth shit, use subwindows.
Configure Krita>General>Window and then choose subwindows under multiple document mode. It updates in real time and i don't think it puts stress on the program.

Here's a video tutorial if you need it

And a plugin you may find useful (subwindows organiser)
