Anyone else hate modern miniature painting? The blends have gotten so smooth, that it will take you a full week to fight the acrylics paint to make your model look "good" by any standard now. The old stuff, didn't have more soul. It just didn't hopelessly buck break you looking at it.Knowing that you'll never be able to have a decent miniature to show someone unless you don't have a job.
>>98917984what are you even complaining about, just paint the way you want to
>>98917989The standards have gotten too high, you can't enjoy your own work when you know it is rushed shit
>>98917996Not everyone has to be a world class painter and you'll get better the more you practice regardless. It'll be okay dude. Get them to table ready and play some games with them. No one is holding your miniatures 2 inches from their eyeball.
>>98918022>Not everyone has to be a world class painter and you'll get better the more you practice regardless.How can you just accept being shit? No wonder you disappoint your mother
>>98918083I don't disappoint your mother. She keeps coming back for my hot dickings.
>>98917984To me, that looks like airbrush, and I don't have an airbrush.
>>98917996So don't rush shit?
>>98917984I'm with you OP. It's exhausting instead of fun.
>>98918083He's not the one perpetually bitter and whining at everything but himself.
>>98917984I really hate non-metallic metal outside of larger-scale figures that are meant to be comic book style.
>>9891798495% of people just do bare minimum and batch paintYou are being blackpilled by social media algorithm
>>98917984>Ugh why bother even trying to paint on canvas? I mean look at Michelangelo's work I'll never be that good I shouldn't even botherGet a grip dude this shit is supposed to be for fun
Did you know They want you comparing yourself to everyone else? They want you to believe that the result posted means more than the unseen experience of the art. They don't want you to carry out art. They just want you to consume the pictures you scroll past. And They're very good at it.
>>98917984yeah, social media clowns turns hobbies into full-time jobs and the mongs who follow them can't tell the difference. it's a shame the companies seem to cater to the "professionals" when it's ultimately just a hobby. professional hobbiest is an oxymoron.
I can't enjoy this game, because I'm not the world champion.I can't enjoy this sport, since I'm not an Olympian.I can't enjoy the view, since more highly rated locations exist.I can't enjoy this meal since meals with more Michelin stars exist.I can't enjoy this sex, since there are hotter women to fuck and bigger dicks to do it with.Why the fuck are you comparing yourself with others instead of focusing on your own experience?
>>98917996People's eyesight hasn't got any better.
>>98918366What's thew point at doing anything and allowing yourself to be mediocre? How the fuck do you just drift through life being "good enough" don't you have the urge to crush everyone and climb to the top?
>>98918425Woe is me, imagine enjoying painting, games, sports, views, food, and sex.You will never find contentment, you're on the treadmill forever.
>>98918386And as you get older that eyesight get worse.
>>98918083You are one of those people who constantly cries and complains that you can't get a date, but you don't attract women for that very reason: nobody is interested in a miserable whining cry baby who miserates about how he doesn't get what he wants
>>98918468No I am a general success and hyper competitive and see most of this community as sloths
What a weird bait thread
>>98918491You're not even good at lying.
>>98918425I am the best me that exists, and me being less shit than you just by making the most basic effort is irrelevant to that.
>>98917984Delete social media and do base, wash and 1-3 highlights Boom, you will enjoy panting again.
>>98918491You are hyper competitive and see other people as lazy, and yet instead of engaging with your hobby and exceeding at it, you would rather come to this website and cry and complain about how futile your efforts would be if you ever even tried. Lmao you are so delusional that you are one of those guys that thinks that he is an absolute pussy slayer, but refuses to talk to women because they're all bitches or something lmaoooo
>>98918529Would you prefer an uncreative one?
>>98918083the only people who suck are the people who don't try not painting doesn't make you a better painter, it makes you the worst painter
>>98917984It sounds like you're mad that everyone is better at painting their minis compared to you. Have you considered improving your craft and putting more thought into making a good looking mini?
