is this you?
>meet twitter repost man
>>7955301I'm not a faggot, so no.
>>7955301You're missing the hundreds of gigabytes of hoarded books, courses and references
>>7955301it used to be me but then I started practicing
kill yourself, tranny tourist
>>7955326We dont accept your kind here chud, fuck off back to pol
>Why won't the discord invite me: starter pack
if you're projectless, just buy a project
>>7955301Projection, the post.
>>7955301What is that bottom left software, under the screenshot of blender?

>>7955301How do I break out of this and just do it? Every time I force myself to just do it, I do something meaningless for a few minutes and then don't touch the software for months again. Literally Spongebob writing "The" on his essay.
>>7955301BUT HOW???
>>7955501FL Studio
>>7955673>Start a project, a small scale project>Find any shortcut that makes getting an output easier>Fucking finish your project>Post it somewhere, don't look back at it.>Spend half of your effort cheating purely so you can get something started AND finished>Spend the other half experimenting and learning stuff.When I first started drawing 'seriously' I traced over 3d models (this is over a decade ago). What I found out is if you finish a project, close it. Don't spend any more to make it your magnum opus. Finish it, post it, and don't look back until a week or months later. Then start new project.And don't start multiple projects at the same time. If you want to draw something, first you can just copy someone else's stuff for about on Sunday morning or something. For a start, I honestly would recommend people to just copy their favorite artist, so you don't have to spend your brain power on what or how to draw, but make sure you try to finish it.Then the other half of the time is when you try to learn something and draw your own stuff. It's fine. Drawing is time consuming. You'll probably take a year or two before you can start drawing how you like it. You can cheat if you want to just 'finish' a small project (be it tracing, 3d models, tracing AIslop or whatever). Just note that if you don't spend the other half learning, it will be detrimental to you to keep using shortcuts in the beginning.
>>7955301I learnt to draw for fun but now that I know how to do it there's nothing to do and no money to be made. It's a useless skill really.
>>7955673Set up a timer for 15 minutes. You're not done before those 15 minutes have counted down.Make a habit of working for 15 minutes every day.Then increase it to 20 minutes. Then 30 minutes.Or just chain multiple 15 minute timers. 2x 15 minutes is 30 minutes. Four of them is an hour.You can do it multiple times in different times of the day. It stacks up.Oh, and don't just "do something". Define what you're going to do during those 15 minutes. "I will draw this specific figure". "I will color this background element". Your brain procrastinates because your goals are vague. If you can define the task in a specific manner (including the amount of time you're going to spend on it) it's much easier to convince the brain to do it.
never able to learn new skill except drawing and basic blender modeling(flash animation,making music, advanced 3d modeling for example) i always lost interest quickly after 1 weeks of studying
>>7955301Yes. I am in fact a stick figure
>>7955301>softwaresSARR
>>7955306fuck you...
It's not.
>>7955976oops, wrong thread
A lot of hit dogs hollering in this thread
>>7955301Blender is difficultFL Studio is unusable if you don't have theory. To learn theory you need to own and know how to play the piano.
>>7955301yes. its me
>>7955680Thanks anon. Thought it was some animation program I didn't know about.
do you breath oxygen ahh thread
>>7956121op breath coxygen
>>7955997I don't know shit about music theory but you can absolutely use FL Studio if you wanna make music. It takes a bit of messing around but it's doable. If you're really unfamilliar with the software just start with MIDI-slaps to understand how it works
>>7956121He breath out dihydrogen monoxide
>>7956272>MIDI-slaps to understand how it workswhat's that
>>7956388Taking MIDIs and slapping a soundfont on the instrument channels. There's a bunch of videos on youtube that go "X but in the Y soundfont". Thing is you want to start looking into the piano roll and experiment instead of mindlessly changing the instruments. Kinda like making a dumb little edit/remix just to get the gist of the DAW. Turning instrument channels on and off also helps, like analyzing each one individually to see what goes into making a full song. You can start by downloading MIDIs of any vidya music you like. Mind you these are just training wheels and won't make you suddenly godlike at music
>imagine not just doing something for the love of the gameafter a decade with maybe 20 pieces or so to show for it and procrastinating because i felt ashamed that i missed out on years of progress and let my natural talent go to wastei just said fuck it and started drawing again regardless of the flawswhy can't you?if the only love for your craft that you have is the sense of competency then you should just quit; if you actually like doing it then just do it
>>7955316also a bunch of purchased gear collecting dust, I have like 3 screenless tablets and just browse this place instead
>>7955910he is right... you shouldn't be spamming twitter shit here.
>>7955301i started to draw some recently but i still procastinatewhy? thankfuly i only have 60 dolar screenless tablet not terabytes of bs referenceswhy do we procastinate? no motivation? no dopamine hit cause lack of immideate gratification?
>>7955362>we Speak for yourself faggot. Go back to your shitddit hug box
>>7958465for me its easier to get on yt and watch 3 hours of slop
>>7958465You can't be drawing constantly but if you don't draw for month or two then something's fucked. When im going off it's usually because im off ideas.
>>7955362>wekill yourself nigger
I could start drawing but then whats left of the day is going to piss away and then I'll have to sleep and face tomorrow. Its much better to do nothing and drag the time as much as possible
>>7958465Why indeed. Why, DIDN'T I ALREADY FUCKING ANSWER THIS ONCE, MOTHERFUCKER.Anyway, what's the task you're procrastinating on? How did you define it? How much time did you allocate to it? Did you already split it into the smallest atomic subtasks you could possibly think of? Then did you consider just working on a different task for a while, if the first thing on the list made you balk for some reason?
>>7958465Easier to get dopamine with doomscrolling than to get dopamine from <<just draw>> or doing chores. Even at work the hard part is getting started.
>>7958457...I like ellipses...
>>7961510my man
>>7955731Now draw her getting colonized by an English man with a big white cock
>>7961510If you like them make them unless you are using GIMP then i understand why you can't.
>>7955301i don't use medibang so naw
>>7955301I'm like this but I actually do make shit sometimes, I just don't post it anywhere and get weird satisfaction from destroying my own works, knowing that nobody else will ever see them. I can talk about them in detail, but only I have ever seen them.
>>7955301I'm ashamed to say this is scarily accurate, down to the softwares choice
please do not dox me
>>7956168kek
>>7955301>write wall of text, explaining the true purpose of art, being mans spiritual and primal inheritence in live>erase it because its too long and boring (most wouldn't understand it)heh, yea, i'm still learning, lol
>>7955977no, post moreits ugly, but cute
>>7955713>>Start a project, a small scale projectFanart >>Find any shortcut that makes getting an output easier3D models, photos, tracing >>Fucking finish your projectOk>>Post it somewhere, don't look back at it.Social media and YouTube >>Spend half of your effort cheating purely so you can get something started AND finishedOk>>Spend the other half experimenting and learning stuffOkYeah that works like my own solution
Keep on laughing. One day you'll see me succeed and apologize.
