My art rival gave up and now I don't know what to do...
>>8005682You win by default. Celebrate.
>>8005682You don't depend on your rival
>>8005682Go save Sasuke from the darkness, Naruto-kun.
I want an art rivalhow do you get an art rival?
>>8005727Like this, I imagine.
>>8005727It doesn't happen because you want it to happen, it happens over something that would compel you to hate the other person for a long duration of time.
Become your own rival
I have a one sided rivalry with my favorite artist
>>8005737I'll biteGive me a rival>>8005749I'm not full of hate but of competition
>>8005682Did you ever tell him how you feel about him? I had a secret art rival once too, but my drive depleted after I realized he was just a loser outside of art. He was the reason why I started drawing aswell.
>>8005782Accepted.
>had 3 main art rivals and a few smaller ones for around 5 years>slowly surpassed them all>decide to go all in on study>now i keep on surpassing art rivals like its nothing>my last art rival i only had for 3 weeks because i studied so fucking hard (7 hours minimum every day)>still trying to find a new art rival even though ill probably surpass him within a few months or even weekshaving art rivals fueled me. now im running out of them. i think eventually ill have to use the old masters as art rivals and never surpass them because i dont think ill ever be as good as them.
>>8005796>>8005805These are the same file name which makes me think you're the same guyIf you are let's be rivalsI could use a guy like you though I'm not sure what you'll get from meI draw every day but I wage slave so 7+ hours a day are only possible on off days
>>8005811>>8005796 is me, I was joking. Squidward is another anon. Either way, the rival thing is silly. Having a few big artists who are WAAAAY ahead of you as inspiration is far better hate fuel for improvement.
>>8005828Only if you're a soulless Materialist or worse still clout chaser
>>8005828I like the idea of a rival you're in contact with more than just looking at some artist and trying to get thereLike if you're an amateur boxer, if you have a buddy that did 20 more pushups than you every time vs seeing the top boxer in the place do 1000 easyThere's much more drive for improvement with the formerAt least for me
>>8005682Cool bird. Would fuck.
>>8005830Nah. Maybe I lack good social conditioning, but if I don't improve on my own, there is no point to improve. What I called a rival is actually just a target. And what you guys are calling a rival ends up being a buddy. Unless theirs a measurable reward for being the better of the 2, there is no rivalry, and if you tell me "improving is the reward" , just know I would rather be a clout chaser and monetise my efforts so I can do more of it without starving or having to work my shitty job full-time for the rest of my days.>>8005833Same thing. What you're describing isn't a rival, it's a buddy. Unless you're actively TRYING to break their will so they quit and you're victorious, you have a buddy, not a rival.
>>8005882>just know I would rather be a clout chaser and monetise my efforts so I can do more of it without starving or having to work my shitty job full-time for the rest of my days.kek
>>8005884I don't get it, but nice picrel.
>>8005682You have one more excuse for giving up.
>>8005682Art rivalries are destined to end with one giving up because artists are egomaniacs who can't stand being connected with someone superior to them in the same creative field.
I am gonna be honest, there wasn't a single artist I met whom I wouldn't have strangledand not in the sense that I was jealous. I fucking hate artists so fucking much. they're e-whores all of themto have art rivalry you need a degree of camaraderie but all I could ever feel for artists was pure hatred
>>8010710Sounds like you're the problem honestly. Hate to be rude about it, but that's the rule.
>>8010710I feel the same way.
>>8005682It looks cool
>>8005682Anyone want to skip the art rival part and become art lovers?
>>8005682My art rivals all said i didn't draw, Then they mocked me in the process whenever i drew.Drip called me retarded.,They've all quit.
>>8013898This is your perfect victory. That's right, you win.
>>8013910I guess you could say that. but the thing that stings the most is that these people would never accept me because i was passionate about artwork.I still feel like I'm at the same spot that i was before even though I'm actually earning something from my artwork, it still wouldn't win over these guys or beat them.i guess the difference between me and them was that i was tracking my progress they weren't. They had nothing to strive for so they'll just mock others and then quit.maybe it's their culture
>>8013922its part of the infection of the internet moar broadly, but yeah those types do exist and it's their choice, but its a sad one. For some people being an artist is more important than making and enjoying art.
>>8013898kill yourself snow/green
