post your work

The secret is to show yourself you can get better at a subset of drawing in a tangible way. and then grow from there

Once you clock in 10000 hours, you are definitely an autist

This.

I won't take advice from someone who for all I know could be terrible beginner with chronic dunning kruger

>>3131148
Yeah!
Who does this guy think he is? Telling people to "practice" to get good.
Absolutely ridiculous if you ask me.

>>3131148
How am I a Dunning Kruger? I never claimed to be good. It's also fallicious to think that just because someone is good, their advice is good. I've met a lot of exceptionally talented artists who never bothered drawing boxes and figures and just made personal work. That artist could very well say that drawing boxes and doing figure drawing is useless but would it make it so?

>>3131152
Exactly. He could be trying to sabotage our art gains. ""Practice"" huh? sounds fishy to me

I am interested in the subject of drawing and painting, but have a job as CAD engineer. I work 8-16, monday to friday. I clock 176h in a month. This is in a year roughly 2100h.

So 10k is like having full-time job for 5 years that you are totally dedicated to. IMO it can be attainable if you do art uni and on top of it work part time or on internship on some graphic studio or on your own project that you intend to sell.

People out of uni or in other fields have it automatically more difficult and IMHO NEETs just don't have work ethics to manage this.

>Study your fundamentals

We've already proven that the study meme doesn't do shit for you. Fuck off, OP.

>>3131180
Show your thinking please. Can't just state things are fact with no evidence.

How exactly have you proven that? I find it quite mind boggling that some retards actually consider the act of studying itself to be a meme. Like, how would you suggest someone were to learn a new language or an instrument or a sport without any form of studying and exercising?

>>3131199
They aren't retarded, you are. Anyone with more than 2 brain cells would know that they are trolling and trying to mislead beginners astray.

I think he means studying without applying. Because if you go over the same study (example: boxes in perspective) a bunch of times and don't try to apply it to any of you work all you would end up knowing is how to draw boxes in perspective. Same goes for copying a body parts, all you'll end up doing is copying, not thinking. Studying becomes a comfort zone of its own if you don't push yourself
