>Go to academy
>Find the best and most experienced draftsman there
>He stares at me like a king stares at a slave
>Everyone looking at me in silence, wondering if I dedicate 8 hours a day to photocopying statues from life with charcoal
>Hand him a pentel brush
>He looks at it, I can tell he feels insulted already, everyone grinning about to tell me to leave or pay a million dollars for a photocopying course
>Say "Now try to draw an anime character without using reference you fucking faggot"
>They all fall to the floor and start screaming in agony knowing their 100 year training is fucking worthless other than for copying literally LITERALLY what they see

Academic a shit, should have read Scott Robertson instead.

>Guy who can't draw for shit at the beginning of the year
>Does his first 16 hour pose with constant help from the teacher
>Ends up with a nice looking render but the proportions are off because he cannot into measuring and patience and his short warm up poses are always shit
>Year ends
>"I think I've already mastered human anatomy so from now on I'll just buy a cintiq and practice painting at home".

>That girl who checks her phone all the time and has no fucking idea of what she's doing and doesn't learn

>Friends who always come 20 min late because they were smoking weed outside (I smoke with them but AFTER the class at least)

>That cute teacher who is classically trained and only 27 years old and always rubs her breasts against your back when she's checking your drawing and making corrections

>That guy who brings his breakfast to class because he lives 10 min away from the school and drinks cereals with milk in a year old aquaris bottle and eats muffins from a plastic bag and the fucking plastic rattles every time he grabs a muffin

>That autistic guy who NEVER talks and once my cute teacher was resting against his shoulder while looking at his drawing and the guy started to get because human contact scares him probably all red and shaked her off and she almost fell to the floor
>Even one time a lady friend came to class and sat next to him and he just stood up and left
>The class had only started 5 fucking minutes ago

Because I'd rather watch more useful free tutorials on youtube like the mike azevedo one or bobby chiu's channel or medders art, or even pay 5 bucks for GOOD tutorials like the Zedig or Rapoza ones on gumroad rather than listen what sounds like a caveman drowning in his own bodily fluids for 30 minutes and not actually teaching anything useful.

I bought two of his tutorials once and I learned the lesson.
