Drawing for 10,000 hours. Atleast that is what the art teacher at the school I went to said.

>>36716795
Think outside of the box

>>36716795
pen+paper+study+time

replace pen and paper with stylus and tablet if you prefer, but just keep scribbling and looking at loomis/villpu/whoever you want to teach you how to draw.

I don't mean that kinda art
I mean like drawing

>tfw plateaued in drawing ability
>still trash

>>36716795
You don't.

It's a natural talent, you're either good at it or you're not.

This is bullshit
Getting good at art is easily possible. You just have to keep doing it a lot. Honestly, you can just look at drawings and try to copy them. The more you do it, the more you'll know where and how to draw the lines.

learn anatomy
you can't draw well if you have no idea what you're actually drawing

If you aren't at least decent at it by now, then you never will be.

Instead of striving to be "good",which is illusion at best,and opinion at least,try to find your Eye,and your Voice. Draw,look at stuff others have done,but keep in mind that having a unique style of portraying the same subject matter will let you be both known and remembered. Forget anime, forget Fundamentals,flee /ic/ and their masturbatory regard for such. Learn what they do,then make it Y-O-U-R-S .

first you put the input into the other input about 33 times, then you fuck igt up on purpose , deinterlace, draw over the artifacts, zoom in, out, replicate colors at random

Draw line art from life. Your skills as illustrator are determined by your skills at observation and seeing in 3 dimensions.
It only feels like grinding for the first week or so.

talent is real and distinct from learned ability.
you can get really good at tracing lines or painting by numbers but the synthetic quality of artistic production (i.e. the part where you sit down with a blank canvas and recreate an image from your brain) is animated by talent.

i spent most of my childhood/adolescence trying to learn to be an artist and i failed miserably. it wasn't because i didn't practice enough. i autistically practiced that shit every day. i tried taking lessons and classes, i tried following videos, i tried just intuiting the skill, etc. i know "practice makes permanent" but all i came out of this experience with was a host of useless digital art skills and no actual artistic ability.

it took years of pointless practice to realize the problem was that i just don't have an intuitive artistic ability. other people do. some people only realize they do after they learn the basics of art. some people, like me, only realize they don't after wasting an unbelievable amount of time failing at it.

I think the first important thing is to learn to draw what you see, rather than what you think about what you see. Focus on contours, and try to just consider contours in isolation without naming them or thinking about them as belonging to a particular object.

>Drawing for 10,000 hours
No, that's just a saying that if you want to get good at something do it for 10.000 hours. For drawing you need to learn constantly.

>>36717118
Wrong, you can improve even if you're terrible, it will just take time.

how do I into digital drawing? I only use my tablet for osu and photoshop stuff.
What program should I use?

Watch SHITLOADS of porn and eventually your brain will become good at representing human bodies.
