You don't have to stay in LAS because I said so dude, I just think if you quit you'll regret it. Lurk other threads on /ic/ and you'll find a bunch of people who gave up on art or didn't have time for it for one reason or another and stopped completely for a couple of years, and then they come back to it and forever regret how they wasted all that time and could have made so much progress.

I barely made anything for about a year and a half after uni because I was spending all my time working to pay all them bills and shit that living alone brings. If I'd made more time for drawing and painting then maybe I would have "made it" by now, or at least be getting commissions.

A break might be good for you though if you feel like you're stuck in a rut and not making progress or enjoying anything. Maybe take some time out and just chill, and then after a week or two look for what made you want to be an artist in the first place, what kinds of films or books or games or whatever make you want to draw and create things yourself. Take a break, recharge, and then come back with a clearer direction to go in rather than it feeling like you're just treading water in the same place, if that makes sense.

Also the fact that you're posting here asking for someone to tell you to quit shows your heart isn't entirely in it I think. Putting your fate into someone else's hands either to avoid hard decisions yourself or as a cry for help/attention. It really is up to you dude. I could crit what kind of things you should be studying and trying to do instead of those semi shaded heads every day but if you need a break first then maybe we can talk about that when you start up again? All up to you.
