If you're serious about Art, just SAVE up money and get a decent one like an Intuos 4, Cintiq, w/e. You're going to be using it for hours a day and a good tablet will last you years, so don't be a dumbass and cheap out on the main tool of your trade. If you don't have enough, save and work traditionally in the meantime.

>Do you call yourself an artist? For how long?
Have never called or considered myself one. Been trying for 2 years though.
>What is your "day job"? (AKA: how do you sustain your lifestyle)
I'm a full time student on full scholarship. I make 1.75k a month post tax passively from renting.
>How long have you been coming to /ic/?
1 yr.
>How do you self motivate?
I don't. I only draw like once or twice a month, and there needs to be a big motivator like a holiday because I only really draw now to make gift cards and stuff like valentine's cards.
>What do you do after you self motivate?
Play mobage.
>Do you want to "make it"?
If that just means get to level where I'm happy, yes. If it means make money doing just art? Hell no.
>What does "making it" mean to you?
Making cute animu fanart.
>How is your social life? Friends? Family? Partner?
Close circle of friends who I keep in contact with regularly. Known all of them for 6+ years and we go out, hang out, gifts for Christmas, etc.
>Describe a day/week/month in the life of you
Wake up, get ready for school, go to school, come back, and play games. If a holiday is coming up, start drawing up a card. Very rarely, fire up SAI and doodle, but it never gets finished and gathers dust.
>Does any part of your demographic qualities (age, gender, sexuality, etc) effect how you draw? If so How so?
I'm a straight Korean male, so I guess that helps me enjoy cute animu girls and animals?
>How does wanting to be "good at art" effect your life overall?
Makes me miserable. Just adds another thing to my life I'm not satisfied with.
>If you could go back in time 5 years, what would you say to yourself?
Don't get in that fucking car with Dom's acquaintance on the weekend before memorial day you retard. She can't drive for shit and you're going to get brain damaged and be forced to settle for being an RN instead of a cardiologist.
>What is your worst quality?
Passionless
>What is your best quality?
*Very* self-accountable.
