Do any of you guys on /ic/ gives yourself a "time limit" to get your skills down. Like I wanna be good as x artist in x number of years or I want to primarily focus on my fundamentals for an x number of years before doing mostly personal work/working professionally etc

I ask this because the number of years you spend practicing is much easier to measure than skill level. For example, the better you get the more you learn what you don't know so it's very easy to fall into the pit of studying. I mean how do artists even know when they finally become "good enough" to put fundamental training on the side? I dunno just some rambling. Feel free to share your thoughts.

Yea, I have a rough idea -
I'm 18, next year I'm going to uni, so I have 4 years to make it or start a shit job.
In summer I'll set up a new account for drawing furry nazi gay scat porn, as I improve I'll become more picky about the stuff I'm willing to draw.
In 1-2 years, I'll set up a website similar to Proko/Ctrl+Paint where I'll have my concept art/illustration portfolio and Sycra-like tutorials to reach more people.
Maybe I'll publish a few e-books about learning the fundamentals "the fun way" to have more income from normies.

If I don't manage all this while studying, I'll have to postpone it and start paying taxes, so I better hurry.
It sounds like a good plan to me.

you never stop practicing fundamentals.
all the professional artists i follow still brush up on their fundies pretty often, even when it's just for warming up. you have to incorporate fundies into your drawing routine, even when you've already "made it"
