I feel completely outclassed by everything in the sticky. Even the example of bad symbol drawing looks like a masterpiece compared to what I can do.

You are clearly not worthy of my concept. That's totally fine. If I may advise you: work hard, don't give up and keep improving your craft. Maybe one day.

>>2958845
If I may advise you: get out in the world a little more and have more experiences before you start calling your inane ideas genius.

If you tell me the logic behind why I shouldn't use a ruler

>>2947141
You'll be relying on a crutch, your perspective may be correct but you will not know the how or why or explain it for that matter.

why do people think this is hard? is it making streight lines or understandig perspective?

if you need a perfectly streight lines use a ruler
if you dont care then do it freehand
if you dont know how perspective works read Loomis or something

Last panel - don't break the 180° rule.

this is probably bait.. but I'll say this: If you ever want to stop learning and go fully stagnant, just convince yourself that you are a "master" and you can quote me on that...

meh

post you're work

Not gonna bother following the link, but yeh from the photo you posted it looked like layers of epoxy resin or polyester with regular paint layers inbetween. Word of warning: the resins stink and cost a lot of money if you want to try this yourself.

If you keep drawing, one day you will start sketching out a brand new creature you had no intentions to create. You'll freestyle a mix of underlying skeletal structure, muscle all tied to a beautiful overall proportion and perspective and you wont think about if it makes sense. It just will.

shut up

>>2951880
Well, if the image you posted counts as "significant improvement" in your eyes, then don't worry about it, most people get to that level after a year or 2 of regular drawing. Sucks that you are one of the few exceptions so you have to project your frustration onto random strangers.

Why? Did I struck a nerve?
>>2951890
I'm already past his level(attached my art), granted I was drawing for 5 years. But looking at beginner threads it's sad seeing these anons hardly make any progress.

to awake to sleep, to tired to do anything.

hey that's me every second of my life

One will always fall behind and you have to choose which one.

>>2959390

best thing to do is get up hellishly early to do artwork. Know the goosebumps guy? Got up at 4am every morning just to make art every single day before work. 4:00, alarm goes off, turns the lights on, radio on, doing hard for 2 hours before the crack of dawn. no ones awake to bother him, most productive part of his life. If your friend are deadbeats that can only socialize past midnight, I would say you have some ties to cut, or if you were really their friend, you'd whip them into shape too

FEEL THE FORM

Just get maimeri classico paints. The highest price:quality ratio. Although it's a bit inconsistent in quality because it's only oil+pigment.

It's difficult to give information on what medium you should use because it depends on how you want to paint, and can get very specialized.

What do you mean by gessoed and sized? Sized with what? Gessoed with what?

>Just get maimeri classico paints.
Lots of multi-pigment colors, though. Classico is decent, so is Van Gogh and so are a few of the Winton colors.

I think you'd be better off starting with a limited palette of good quality paints like W&N Artists, Rembrandt, Schmincke Norma, Maimeri Artisti, etc, and then buying more colors as you get comfortable with your paints. You can somewhat mitigate the high cost of artist-grade paint by buying mostly series 1 colors and avoiding the more costly pigments.

>>2958106
Just don't get the ones labeled hues, and it's about the same as most lines of paint.
