I always wonder if I had access to scanners/tablets 10 years ago would I have fallen to that side of deviantart? I always fantasized of being one of the popular DA artists back then but am kinda glad now. But then again I have extreme fears about sharing with anyone.

She's cringe but she's out there. Lots of mixed feelings about this information.

progress in technical knowledge is a clearly visible point of measurement wether it's a finished piece or not

I know how that goes, didn't take an art class til I was your age and only got to one life drawing class in college before I dropped out. Learning on your own is tough but you got /ic/ and the whole internet to help you out.

I would honestly not worry too much about being "bad" right now- you're 3 years from 20, seriously, just have fun and make more drawings for the sake of it. Create all you can in your spare time, study, and draw from life with pencil and paper for about half a year like you said and compare. It's not garbage, just has some glaring flaws (mainly due to weak construction IMO, work on your faces and the way the head/joints connect to the body esp) but if you grind in some sketchbooks and then go back to making a full digital illustration I bet it will look a lot more like how you want it to look. Good luck young anon.

There's a bunch of 17-19 year olds on this board that are pretty good, fuck all of you t b h. Keep working and you'll be very good by the time you're like 22.
