/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

>>5209977
ive read the whole comment chain here and i see both of your points but think about the kind of place this is

do you REALLY think that people who are good at drawing want more competition?
do you REALLY think that people who are good at drawing really care much to teach absolute begs how to draw?

teaching beginners in a helpful manner is excruciatingly difficult and not for the feeble minded which is why most of the critique here amounts to "Loomis" or "needs more anatomy" because going further would be too taxing on anyone

but the thing you need to realize is that the best artists are usually the worst teachers (Kim Jung Gi, for example has literally one of the worst courses I've ever watched) while some of the best teachers are usually OK artists
no one would hire them for Disney or Blizzard but they are definitely out of /beg/

so what we really want here is not someone who is really good at drawing but someone who can consistently give advice that causes people to improve--which is something I have not seen on this board (you could argue that your gains diminish or become stunted when you listen to advice on here)

personally, that's what I want and I know it's what most people who started drawing as adults want as well
fuck people who have been drawing since they were kids
you dont know how to take me out of beg because by the time you were my age and you had the ability to apply critical thinking, you were already pretty good based on mileage alone (which often takes 10+ years to develop)

I could go on but I've made my point

this thread will be one of the reasons why I will never get into painting
