/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Oh man I got an entire folder of this, but I need to practice drawing /ss/ so I'll only dump like 2 or 3.

I'm starting to think the OP was a delusional strawman and that he never actually had this encounter, but wanted to make another thread to bitch and moan.

>IC is the strongest art group on the internet?

Most boards on 4chan have a strange philosophy of "if you go to another website you're a faggot and a traitor" and end up not going anywhere else, yet still deluding themselves 4chan is better.

What is with you fucking idiots deciding to set a trajectory for a fucking CAREER in a thing you HAVE NO EXPERIENCE IN, and apparently don't even like enough to entertain the idea of doing it as a hobby?

Why art of all fucking things would you go "wow that seems like a great career"? The people 'making it' in art are the ones who were passionate and wanted to turn their passion into a job, if you just wanted a career you can do better than fucking art. It takes such a large up-front investment of time and effort for such a marginal potential monetary gain.

It's not like a career in art is easy. Professional artists don't just get to fuck around doodling in their notebook and get paid for it, there are high expectations that require a lot of focused effort. Why would you deliberately choose a difficult career with a saturated market where you're competing with passionate people who love what they're doing already? It would be like pulling teeth, you'd be fucking miserable.

I've also got a small collection of some classic medieval stuff that I can dump later if anyone's interested.

So between Malaysia, Illustrat and Cumbum which is the most intolerable?
