I'm fine if you can draw and shit, but at least have a fucking reasonable way to present yourself

Because boring normalfags like you don't deserve good art.

Just draw you stupid fuck.

I'm not a furry but I look into it out of morbid curiosity, I see lackluster artists pulling $500 a comission, jesus christ guys unfuck yourself.

>>11589324
It hurts a lot but you need to not let it get to you.
Comparing yourself to other artists in this way is ultimately detrimental to your growth as an artist yourself.

Learning is more important.

>>11589558
Good point

>>11589421
It's like people do what they want to do.
It's almost like nearly everyone in the whole world not only doesn't give a fuck what you want or think, but also doesn't even think about you ever.

Who are you that you get to decide what medium is superior to another? What makes you think that you get to make the decision of what someone should be doing with themselves?

Tell me, what should these exceptional artists be doing instead?

I just... I think I'm legit better than some of them. Or at least just as shitty. I just never believed in myself the way they do.

It's OK, bro. Eventually you'll admit it to yourself. Took me a while, too.

I have this weird hangup where I can't enjoy Youtube videos if they are made by someone younger than me.

Because it feel like being schooled by your little brother.

Seriously, try doing those three things for a week and see if your creativity is affected.

This.
It hurts when you can never find someone to push you to do better and motivate you to keep going.

This. It feels bad when even some of your idols have noticed your art and you let them down by not doing anything for months on end...

This hit too close to home

practice

you know, every single one of these "artist does *blank*" threads just boil down to being unhappy with your own life and constantly comparing yourself to others or just generally finding a need to tear other people down in order to make yourself feel better

one of the greatest skills ever is to be able to find happiness in your own life, try and work on it sometime

>just generally finding a need to tear other people down in order to make yourself feel better
Not really, majority of the time people won't even bother to name a specific artist. The only people I see get teared down are artists with a history of being well known dicks.

>one of the greatest skills ever is to be able to find happiness in your own life, try and work on it sometime
Do they hand out trophies, awards, or money for finding happiness? No? Seems like a useless "skill" to me.
