How do I avoid becoming a Sycra?

Don't be too pointy

>>2908818
Don't have a hundred multiple personalities and get sent into mental institutes.

This man has no talent and has to mask that with caricatures and shitty filters

You don't. Sycra is the borg and he is slowly assimilating us all.

who the fuck is sycra

Learn when to give up and look for a different career

>>2908832
he does a lot of youtube tutorials, thats all I know.

>>2908824
Why do people like caricatures? I get uncomfortable looking at them, I've never seen a good one.

They're never funny either, if that's supposed to be the point.

>>2908824
I mean, i actually like his stylization in that image
I know what you mean though. His earlier work was pretty good when he was working in concept art but his depression got the best of him and he burnt out. Im worried since thats happening to me now

>>2908843
the point is exaggeration of facial features. you get one and its like "oh thats what my most recognizable features are"

Seems like Sycra's problem is just bad taste

So make sure to broaden your horizons in what you like from art and to study/absorb multiple sources

Don't try to be a 1 man army and specialize in one specific thing. Don't have tulpas.

>>2908818

Be white, or at least half white. It's the key to AESTHETICS. The rest just don't get it.

I'm never going to FUCKING MAKE IT.

>>2908900
>>2908933

Come on, I was only jesting. I am sure there's a lot of good artists that are not white or Asian out there. It's just that the higher IQ average of these two just make them pop up more frequently than other races, and must be why there's hardly any carbon black africans or Aboriginals with mad art skills.

I am half Mediterranean, half middle eastern anyway, so I am in the same boat as you probs.

>>2908939
>>2908933
God I love being white, I love it when non-whites admit their own inferiority.

>>2908872
Sadly, the asians have everyone beat in that aspect too.

The concept of sucking aesthetic dick is borne by white, and the judges have decided asians are best at it. Funny how that works.

>>2908933
>tfw I'm mixed race asian/white
Feels good

>>2908933

>best artists asians

Go in any major art museum and look at the ethnicity of the artists.

It's gonna be europeans everywhere unless you're in a japanese specific room or a modern art museum.

>>2909143
yeah and how many of those european artists have jobs at big companies?

oh wait they are working the tomb full time

im glad they did leave a lot of work as i can only use nativity paintings for environmental design of my indie 2d beat em up.

The only symbols japanese animators use is occasionally the facial features. Everything else they draw has depth and volume. Top tier japanese animators are better at depicting 3 dimensional objects in perspective than you would be in a hundred lifetimes.

God, do you really still post here?
Stop stinking up the joint, fag.

Reminder that you cant draw for shit

>>2909602
Yeah, I got here all by myself*

(*and with the generous support of my parents, the enormous amount of resources available due to living in an affluent area, and positive stereotyping because I'm Asian so everyone believes in me and my abilities)

yet

>>2909619
Its been about a year and last time i visited /ic/ you openly admitted that youre just here to "troll" and you dont care about getting good, then went on to give dozens of newbies terrible advice.

Don't force your style sycra, get three different artists you like and copy copy copy, learn some fundies, then copy copy copy, then go back to brushing up on up your fundies, then copy copy copy. The most important thing is through all this free your mind of everything you have learned and just sit down and draw things you like, your fundies and copies will naturally work their way through your drawings subconsciously.

>>2909625
This might be bullshit, but I believe you.

>>2909621
>then went on to give dozens of newbies terrible advice.
example of bad advice and post your work?

>>2909627
It's a balance of discipline and fun, too much discipline and you end up forgetting what made you get into drawing in the first place, your sketch book filled with studies and no imagination. Too much fun and you end up in a comfort zone, your sketchbook filled with the same type of character in the same pose over and over again

>>2909636

Too much discipline in the beginning might be a very efficient way to get fundamental skills quickly though, You can always connect with your inner child later on. R-right?

>>2909633
Not that anon and won't post the pic because i can't fucking find it now (fuck you archive) but I remember you ubironically (or maybe you were trolling ecsdee) doing redlines which were utter shit and misleaded them

>>2909710
No, actually you can lose your inner child self which is why you have to be extremely careful. Once you lose it, you have to refind it somehow and that's nearly impossible unless you can remember your whole childhood.

Nah, I remember pretty well what got me into art. Pony porn, lucid dreams and eternal states of disassociation in the darkness, dreaming up beautiful obscure scenes far away into the stars, of worlds lightened up only by luminescent floating dildos while the rain falls and the ground reflects an ever glowing sea of bluish peace. So magical.

>>2909153
>Asians at best are technically skilled but have no sense of creativity.
and to prove that you posted a bunch of european low-creativity but high-technical skill works and a japanese work laking in both of those? kaka

becoming sycra isn't bad. Just don't choose to draw with weird proportions like he does on purpose. It's not like he's trying to not draw the way he does recently.

>>2909918
they don't even draw, this board is just a shitdump for teenagers.

>>2908818
Don't worry about that anon, Sycra seems to have been born with a reverse midas touch for aesthetics, you would have to try your hardest to make shit look that bad.

>>2909286
This is absolute horseshit.

Cool, I like the trick.

Reminder that you draw like shit and were a complete dickhead when you first came to this board. Youre still an insufferable fag but at least you arent pretending like you know anything about art now.

>>2910744
i know more than you ever will :)

>>2910823
This is ridiculously false.
We've compared art before because ive called you out before because youre a little shit who doesnt learn. Ive seen your shitty beginner advice where you only touch low hanging fruit and then post your even worse little studies

>>2908843
Yeah, they're always very formulaic and always look like shit. No one ever puts any thought into them. They just draw the formula and it becomes an inbred bastardization of itself. Its the same with political cartoons, bad anime, bad concept art, etc.

You do that by posting on 4chan 24/7 instead of drawing.

If you dont draw anything, you can never become an artist.

By not being Sycra. In none of his body of work have I ever seen the man push the limits of what he could do comfortably. What's more, he takes long hiatuses - don't do that.

>>2910274
damn, wish i could make kids with a white girl, watching anime during my chink childhood got me fetishizing blonde babes. characters like samus completely encapsulates what i find beautiful in a woman

hi random /ic/ shitposter who will never gonna make it because shitposting is comfy, while getting good at drawing is hard work. boohoo.

>>2910742
Like I said he chooses the way he currently draws on purpose. not to mention he's got all those other personalities issues he has to deal with.

Sycra being bad is a meme.

>>2910602
No thanks. I wouldn't mind a full packaged futa though.

>>2910985
Same applies to you, shitposter. Unless you work hard as me 6+ hours a day and only visit 4chan when shitting, but you're too ignorant to even consider that as a possibility

You seek attention by "trolling" on 4chan, you smear people on reddit who are at the same level as you by posting things like "read fuckim sticky" xDD le epic trolle. You were unbearable on discord so they banned you, you're even more pathetic than mikejc and his gay ass "art" that surpasses all of your shit that you'll ever create.

I work (and with work I mean I do this for a living) 8-12 hours a day. I get paid to draw. I'm not a 15 year old idiot who spends too much time on fucking /ic/. go back to your 6 hours of studying and stop wasting your time here until you make it, idiot.

Sycra has skills but no creativity, both can be developped but don't train only one and forgot the other

>>2911501
How do you train creativity? Isn't that something you're born with?

>>2911147
stop bullying my #1 tomodachi in the whole wide sekai

>>2911505
no, what are you talking about? Everyone who is "creative" absorbs a shit ton of information and uses it to create something similar. If you want to train creativity look at tons of fantasy art, read books, watch sci-fi movies, and draw. Your mind will do that rest.

>>2911505
Write down or sketch out 10 ideas within a certain topic every morning. Boom! Daily training for your creativity.

>>2908818

Please explain why you think you're at risk of becoming a Sycra.

It's like those guys afraid to go to the gym because they could end with a weirdly proportionnate body, you just don't become the Hulk by error.

Oh, I understood completely. I am just saying developing artists like you (you proved my guess when you said you work hard for 6h a day which is probably you studying to get good) shouldn't spend their time shitposting on 4chan, even if it's when shitting.
