I live in a medium-sized European city, and whenever I draw in the subway, I draw everyone, and everyone loves this shit. It doesn't matter who you draw, old men, young men, middle-aged men, girls, women, grandmas. If you can actually deliver something that even remotely resembles the person who is standing in front of you, they get so flattered...

also I am an incel and kinda permabeg, but my faces improved tremendously after filling 15 sketchbooks with nothing but strangers

erm not doxxing myself
Also, I give these drawings out, and took shots of maybe only quarter of all the people I drew.

Thing is, just giving the drawing to someone won't be enough. You can exchange stares, flatter her, get a 'thank you, nice art!' but she still would expect you to do the heavy lifting.
Two times, some girl wanted to talk to me and I went full autismo mode about Stalinism, KJG, Nietzche and god knows what other crap, all within 7 minutes. I was forgiven, *because* my art piece turned to be ok.

But god forbid if your sketch, that you are doing for such a performance, turns out to be merde!

I bought the book the Natural Way to Draw and it wants me to draw on really big paper and use an easel for that.

However, my goal is actually to eventually switch to digital drawing. And if I want to draw on my desk I could buy a tabletop easel but max paper size it allows is like barely A3.

So do I really need to buy a standing easel and learn to draw on really big paper?

Oh and I don‘t have live models as well, how am I supposed to work around that?
>>
>>8078913
if you want go digital don't bother with anything bigger than A3, you could buy large clipboard and rest it on edge of desk

>Oh and I don‘t have live models as well, how am I supposed to work around that?
Try harder. Use your gf/yourself naked in the mirror. You can even try finding models and organizing figure drawing sessions yourself. Otherwise, copying drawings of renaissance masters can be used as substitute for live models in a pinch.

Tbf tho for big animation studios you also have to conform the artist(s) according to the art director's whims. Since you character design has to be passed to the animation dept, storyboard, etc and if it survived the box office, might be up for series animation, merchs, etc

This might be useless to most, but the answer to some of the "how do I get motivation to draw" questions might be to lower your energy levels before sitting to draw.

Trying to sit down to draw after speeding through internet shitposts or after gaming or right after work is like trying to take a nap after running away from an axe murderer, your mind is on high gear while the state of creative flow is on a far lower frequency, for a lack of better words.
Wind down, sleep for a while, listen to an entire album with your eyes closed, and getting started drawing might be easier.
Idk it's what worked for me.

Lately if I make a "step forward" with a drawing I don't attempt another. If it wasn't bad enough for failures to put me off drawing you can add in successes now.

If there is one single thing that I actually stick with it's *thinking* of how to improve my skills, it's the last line of defense. If I ever make it I'll tell anons to "just draw" so they fail though

dopamine isn't real

For me the thing that helped was getting out of prebeg because when you can't draw anything it's like sitting down to stare at a wall but with a little skill all the possibilities open up and it's a buffet of different difficulty levels, styles, techniques, just have to pick one and zone out for the next 5 hours to some good music
>>
The best tool for maintaining art discipline is methamphetamine. Not only does it enable one to break down the natural barrier of laziness and existential angst that comes from life, but due to the dopamine flood induced by methamphetamines plus art practice there exists a primordial joy and big funtimes due to the synergy of music, art, and drugs.

This youtuber does interview with people who are ngmi or are young artchads

And its honestly amazing that how some people are really good at drawing.

I won't say its highest form of classical/pro mangaka level art but its still very very nice, much better than a permabeg like me.

Why would you do this? The entire benefit of working digitally is that you don't have to work 'destructively' like in you with every traditional medium.

I don't agree with this. Trying to build a drawing habit sucks if you don't know how to draw on even a theoretical level, and there's no need to torture yourself like that. It might be good advice for someone who drew a lot as a kid and managed to discover some things on their own, but not for someone whose knowledge and experience boil down to "I drew a really badly-stunted stick figure once over a decade ago." Learning some basic sketching techniques and how to use shapes and such are revolutionary for a complete beginner. Being able to draw faster, more confidently, and with better results makes it a thousand times easier and more enjoyable to make drawing a habit. Starting with something like one of Mark Kistler's books is likely to end better than just aimlessly fiddling around with a skill that someone has presumably already failed to pick up/stick with on their own once before.

I have the same question, now because of my job i have more free time [spoiler]and more money[/spoiler] and I want to start drawing, not to make money or to goon but any other hobby didn't catch my atention like drawing. And after years studying to get my major and learning new language to my masters degree I want to dedicate my free hours to drawing... Anyway thanks for the tips

I don't care If I "get gud" at 50's just want to draw nice things
>>
>>8076020
>Your first goal should be to develop a drawing habit so strong you start drawing on autopilot whenever you're bored. The question of how to actually get good comes strictly after you cover that.
Sounds like a fantastic way to pick up bad habits on purpose. If you want to progress and learn new things, then it should be mentally straining.

Why is drawing seemingly the only hobby where you're not supposed to do, much less enjoy the thing you actually want to do with any regularity? If someone who has never played videogames before except for once when they were a kid wanted to get really into it, you'd hand them a controller and tell them to go wild on something like Super Mario Bros., you wouldn't have them grind aim maps in Counterstrike from the get-go just because "hand eye coordination is important bro"
