Because everyone follows the path of a concept artist or illustrator.

For every other branch of art you need way higher writing skills. It's really difficult to admit it. It was for me. Raw drawing skill doesn't entitles one to a career or money. The only thing that matters is the value you're putting out there.

Many artists are in denial of this. I was. It's called Loss aversion. Has an example, people who spend countless months conquering perspective only to find out that the majority of the industry uses 3D to start a painting. Same with Photobashing or Designdoll, it's a new standard, not a choice.

But it's not easy to admit that the thing you spend months conquering a skill that people don't care about.
So it's easier to call 3D or Photobashing "hacks", "cheating", "nasty art", than to branch out of your comfort zone and adopt them.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply
So is it possible to draw the line anywhere? Should beginners just be focusing on just raw design and neglecting anything that can be done with computers?
Right now I have a bit of a theory that it's hard to practice and improve design without drawing ability, but what about concept jobs where you aren't necessarily designing anything new? It seems like the only things you'd need to be proficient at then would be composition and colour.

Send her here and let her know the truth before it's too late.

>>2862889
I would never ever recommend /ic/.

>>2862892
Okay then, perhaps ask her why she wants to draw. When I was 12, I already knew, so she should too. Then tell her to draw that a lot.

What's triggering about this? The fact that there's a fat girl? Do fat girls not exist to /ic/?

Cyarine, in general, has a bad rep on this board (and possibly other communities), largely for her attitude. Pretty sure OP's pic focuses on her caption though, not the actual art.

Personally, I don't mind people blogging on their art posts. As long as the art is good or an attempt to improve, whine all you want.

>I'm horrible at drawing
You sound like a fucking normie. At least try, post your results in the /beg/ thread, then receive criticism. Once you've had that, you can work on improving. This is how drawing works you absolute plebeian.

>>2860888
nobody draws here lel.

What's OP need it for? Desktop background? Tattoo? Are you looking for basic ink on paper or something fancier?
Also what is OP visualizing as a "male" version? Just shortening the hair would be the easiest way to do.

>>2859653
Fucking cute. How long did it take to make that? What did you use?

Thanks! Half a week with Toon Boom.

I do, but it's also much faster to steal other people's processes, so I do that too. But don't listen to /ic/'s bullshit about hours put in, construction shit, and other loads of bullshit.

>>2855105
Do you just sit down and learn calc without books? Art isnt nearly as complex and most of it is milage, but without pre written knowledge youre just wasting your time figuring out something some one else already written down.

>>2855105
Fuck you.

bey brian I'm at work so I can't watch your stream right now. I'm the anon who was asking about mixing and consistency of the paint. my paint is always too thin and ends up looking like shit because the colors are "milky looking" I can post examples, but I don't want to stink up your thread. any tips?

>>2860640
Brian, doesn't your still life fall off without the bottom plane? Also all of the items are too detailed and don't feel as a whole, you should focus on one item. Also, what the deal with those shadows?

>>2860782
>focus on one item meme
Who taught this and why do new artists keep falling for it?

nevermind stream is ded

You're thinking too much of it.
Just start simple.
