>>59203698Low /Beg/ gang where you at?
>>59203698I only now realized "BEG" stood for "beginning" and not "begging".
>>59204721or "beginner" instead of "beggar", to be more accurate
>>59204721I thought it was both. Beginners begging for help
This thread severely depresses me because I can't figure out how to do the starting thing where you lay out the shapes before you start drawing around that and lightfall and shadows.
>>59203698Your favorite artists have never stopped drawing since they were kids and asian artists take a sketchbook everywhere in public, just for perspective. No one in their 20s magically becomes good at drawing. Neuroplasticity sets in when you become older and it'll become difficult to learn to draw, even if you desperately want to.
literally just start and find outafter 25 years of barely being able to draw a stick figure I one day randomly decided I was gonna try tracing 3d models in blender to learn and now I draw mons all the time
>>59203698I don't get the claim "you get better the more you draw" when we have chris chan who has been drawing sonichu for like 20+ years and it's not great
>>59205573You can't really teach people how to be creative, but you can certainly teach them how to paint. It's a mechanical skill that you can practice and gain practical knowledge about.>>59205586If you are actually practicing and making a conscious effort, you will improve. If you don't aim for it or you're actually doing bad practice and enforcing bad habits, you won't improve. Same as anything else.
