So what does /ic/ mean with "making it"? How do I know

If you make 25k+ a year, every year, you made it.

Not making it.

what a time to be alive

>>2706735
no shit, that's why I'm asking

>>2706716
maybe by any sensible artist's standards.

By /ic/'s standards, it is when people use your artwork as jerkoff material.

Do you need the status "Made it" to write it on your shirt or what? As long as you can live off of your art, who cares if you "made it"?

>>2706745
No, not really. Where do you get that from? /ic/ is all about the money, newfag.

>>2706706
When you stop making shit art.

>>2706706
You'll know you've made it because when you make it you'll unconciously cry out, "At last! I have made it!", and so you will have made it.

>>2706706

two ways of making it.

You make a steady income off your art (enough to support yourself and then some).

You have reached a goalpoint in art that encompasses all the fundamentals and you can apply these to fully create something you're truly satisfied with and your audience enjoys.

>>2706706
When people are happy to pay for your art and you're happy for people to pay for your art, you've made it.

>>2706706
when you can finally draw what you want exactly how you want without hesitation.

>>2706706
when you kill yourself.

then you made it.

>>2706706
When you're able to define the meaning for yourself

>>2706706
Making it is when you stop coming to /ic/
