Hey /ic/
I have a question.
When you make a program for studies, I mean a plan in how to approach betterment.
How do you do it? What are the plans that have worked for you?
I know you should be consistent, always think of the fundamentals while you do and to do do and do
But are there blogs where famous art students from calarts or art center or even FZD have posted their assignments?
Because sometimes I get down thinking "ok, I'm studying but is it worth it doing it the way I'm doing it?"
I am afraid for some reason, and I can't shut up the voice inside my head that yells at me about failure.
But I will still keep on going, just wanted to know anon's opinion on plans for improvement and defeatist mindset

Make a plan that suits you and how your mind works. A lot of school-based regimens are kept with an assignment in mind, an environment where you become energized from being around other artists, and other things that you simply can't get from the absence of school. The discipline between someone out of school will most likely be not as high as someone in school with a surveillance from instructors and an inherent drive to "impress." You should keep this in mind when you ask about seeing work and such from a student or an industry professional.
A lot of art is fucking up your way to success, i.e. trying, failing the first time, and finding out slowly what works and sticking to that. If you're not ready for this for anywhere from 1-3 years in the learning stage you might as well drop it already.
What is your main goal?
Do you want to draw pretty girls? Fantasy creatures? Fine art? Concept art? Figurative? Sceneries? Nature? Industrial? Animals? Plants? Space ships? Portraits?
"fundies" and studies are supposed to be done to get better at what you want to draw
