What should I realistically do? is 8 hours per day obligatory?
>>7733283>What should I realistically do?Post less, draw more>is 8 hours per day obligatory?not really, depends on how quickly you pick things up. Some will improve like crazy over a single year with a couple hours a day, others will still be just as bad after 5 years.
>>7733283Kill yourself and hope to be reborn as someone with talent.
>>7733283Complete one sketchbook each week. Draw everything that you see. That's it.
>is 8 hours per day obligatoryI like to think of it this way: the artists you admire working for the biggest companies in the world ARE drawing 8 hours a day, and I think it's a reasonable expectation that to get to that level you need to work that hard from the beginning.
6 months working 4 hours a day is more than enough if you've hired an artist to redline and critique your work every week
>>7733283good luck finding a study flowchart
>>7733466Wasn't there an amateur artist who shared his study plan on some internet forums and managed to become a semi-famous pro?
1.Draw2. Understand what’s wrong with your drawing 3. Cry 4. Learn how to correct your drawing 5. With your new knowledge draw again but better It’s not about how much you draw, it’s about how much you can learn per drawing Do your best

>>7733283>is 8 hours per day obligatory?Not really, those are rookie numbers and you should NEETMAXX and do 16 hours.

>>7733283you can't10-20 years is the minimumit's a lifelong path
>>7733283I won't say who because I dont want to give myself away, but friend of mine with a million+ account got decent in 3 years doing 16 hours a some days

>>7734170nah, that's why you do studies - it presents you with an undeniable "truth" that you can then compare your work to. once you've identified and corrected a mistake in a controlled learning environment, you're much more likely and able to do the same when being freely creative.of course, it's a lot harder than having a mentor checking your work for you, but it's definitely not impossible.
