Is the ego anon, you are permabeg because of that, is the common thing with people like you.
Take what you write "why i cant draw", first ego problem, you are automatic tagging youself in a category and state even when is obvious that you are a beg that still dont even start to learn seriously >>7368601, this proves that argument, because if in 4 years you only timeline is 16 pages... yep. Your mind is putting in that eternal circle of negation or alienation, that state doesnt matter, what matters is that you are in that state because you are doing nothing then you said "why": you are doing nothing: why?: you are doing nothing: why? easy to understand for everyone that see it from the outside, not to you because you are under that mental state. That's why you are also answer this things with searchings of... definitive answer that are already answered.
The thing with the ego is that your interior self put a designated expectation of what you should be doing OR what is your current state of, anything in your life, but the thing is that it needs to correlate with the actual reality to move on and not be in the denial stage. That shit happens in both of the extremes: for one side you could be a permabeg that never improves because his ego said "why i'm not good/better" when that doesnt correlate with the invest, or you can be the guy stuck because the ego said "i'm good enough look this blablabla is good right now why people dont like it", in the middle you have the guy that thinks that he's good but also acknowledge that he's beg still, but you see the contradiction? the ego make him said a lie to comfort his feelings but that's put it in the denial that on time he recognize.
That's your problem, you can take the way you prefer, but is the reality, you are saying to yourself "why im not good" when you clearly have a minimal, almost zero, practice over the years, so, of course you are.
¿How to fix that? literally not memes "just draw"
>>
>>7368699
no drawings = zero improve.
Drawing doesnt mean you will improve on the positive or negative, but, if you dont draw at all, you can't say that to begin with.
That's the first basic, minimal, step, if you cant draw, then move on to another thing, is that simple, if you can't, then is confirmed that your ego is the problem because you will make an excuse to not quit (imagine not wanting to quit something you're not even doing, yeaaah the ego problems can be quite difficult to handle)

Blah blah blah
I know I am not drawing. I have more drawings than the timeline.

I stopped drawing because others were improving faster. I then knew that if others improved faster they had more talent

Another person in 3 years can become a pro, I could draw 300 years and never get better
Talent

Because despite drawing a lot, you didn't learn from them.

>>7369518
Ok but why, give me a real answer
>>
>>7369523
that's the real answer. you just don't, and perhaps can't, see it, because you're too /beg/ (as you've proven in this thread). not everyone was meant to be a world-class athlete, not everyone was meant to draw well.
>>
>>7369525

your genetics does not allow for the understanding of detail. to attempt so would be to insult your disposition. I have too much respect for you, though you perhaps will never see it.

The worst part about Soda is that he will keep garbage threads alive for weeks even after the original poster has been long gone from it. If it weren't for him all cris threads would die within three days. But because of him, you get to experience a total of 5-12 cris threads at a time for months straight. Wonderful! At least he's not "as bad as Cris", right? Let me use my critical thinking for a second...

>>7369582
Haha yes! I love it when the shit threads get necrobumped endlessly instead of naturally falling off of page 10! Because schizo shitposting definitely cancels out schizo shitposting rather than just pile on top of each other!

You don't think I don't? I have six cris/soda threads hidden right now, about to add a seventh because of shit moderation and retarded peers. But that's only a bandaid. Just last week there were a total of TWELVE FUCKING CRIS THREADS for a whole fucking day, and if it weren't for me and others who don't stick their heads in the dirt they would still be around right now. Unfortunately our nonexistent moderation chose not to delete all of them.
There's an expression about a kingdom that ignores its problems is doomed to implode that I'm misremembering. Anyways, just remember that you determine the quality of the communities you inhabit. I'm only angry because it feels like I'm one of few who actually care about this place.

>>7368571
I read this diagonally, but I think you're not being fair to yourself
it's not easy to start from an empty canvas and just perfectly put down the right lines and shapes
when you see other people's efforts, you are not seeing all the scaffolding they put up
yes, even in "sketches" they probably blocked out much sketchier sketches before they ended up with something they were happy to show the world
also, don't just keep going. you probably notice the drawing is wonky way before you give up. if you don't, try mirroring it. literally hold it up to a mirror, since you seem to be working traditionally only. measure things. measure angles and lengths and proportions. use grids. trace stuff until you're comfortable. you weren't born with a perfect ability to do things. you need to practice and learn
good luck anon
