>just drawIs that really all it takes?
It's more of a philosophy. >Should I make this shit postJust draw >Should I get into this argument Just draw>Should I play video gamesJust draw>Should I jerk offJust draw>Should I go looking for that next course to add into the pile of unfinished onesJust draw
>>8035482No. You can move the pencil across the paper for thousands of hours but if you don’t study properly you’ll never make any progress
>>8035545It's not even about studying. It's being able to create something with substance by yourself. You have to be able to create a product which people would want to buy. Most people just can't do this.
>>8035482Yep. Draw from life, draw from photographs, draw from memory, and draw from imagination.
>>8035482Yes>b-but I can'tTry>but it'll be badlearn from it and you will get better over time>but i want results nooooooooowok go generate something leave us alone
Try not drawing, and see how far you get

>>8035570>It's not even about studyingIt is though, no one is born being a master craftsman. Talent alone without study takes you nowhere. Study is also the variable that you can influence with your own acts, unlike talent, so it's more practical to focus your energy on it, talent is just there and you don't gain it by working on it so one shouldn't worty about it.

>>8035886yeahit's a campfire in a valley
Yes but also no
I've been drawing my entire life and I still can't "just draw". I'm just tired of everything and nothing is getting better. but drawing is the only thing I like to do.
didn't want to draw but i drew because of you. so yeah cool thanks.
>>8036079I am a bit confused what you mean. If drawing is the only thing you like to do, why can't you just draw? It doesn't need to be for some goal, you can just do it.
>>8037055you'll understand when you grow up
>>8036044I'll put a fire in her valley if you know what I mean
>>8035482No, you have to actually put in effort to learn, but you cannot learn without drawing so "Just Drawing" with scribbling bullshit on the page is better than sitting around with your dick in your hand

Do this...https://youtu.be/1OSWR7xiQLk?is=yHgcDSInVIWS-Z6-Repeat until you get something that you want to draw again. Then draw it roughly, like an animator would, with your goal being getting its sense of weight and stance, personality and demeanor. Then do your first formal portrait.
>>8037415Having random lines/shapes suggest something to me is simple enough, but I can never figure out how to draw it. The things I envision aren't defined by lines, and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be marking to make an illusion of them appear on a page.
>>8037356why would it get pointy going up?my dick i mean?
>>8037530It's a Rorschach test. You might try a dozen times and not find the start of an idea to take shape, but committing to the attempting is the point. Make a scribble, add some pen to bring out an expanse, defining it. The design process doesn't end there, and the shapes could be just background elements you would place your characters within. I usually don't bother with scribbling but it's a fun jumping off point.https://youtu.be/LrW06QO-NSQ?is=0cU4SPMYleUhIcDN
>>8035519>my life of just draw>fun? no>variety? no>just drawenjoy suicidal ideation
there's got to be another way. a single drawing doesnt have the same value anymore compared to even 10 years ago.
>>8037845NTA but be careful that nice strawman you just set up doesn't catch fire
>>8035545This. I’ve been just drawing since early 2019 and never improved.
>>8037845>suicidal ideation>so it’s not just me..
