This is the best drawing I've done. I find FWAP completely impenetrable. How do you draw with lines and have things look solid? What the hell is he doing to make his drawing look like they have form without hatching in the inside? What the hell is the trick?

>If you are at this point, just quit drawing.
Don't worry, I won't. My mind won't allow me to. I'll just continue spinning wheels forever and ever.

>You did make gainz right?
No, I've made no progress this year, just like I made no progress last year, just like I made no progress the year before that, just like I made no progress the year before that. Everything I make is the same; lifeless, stiff, formless, gray sludge. It doesn't matter how much I consciously think about utilizing contrast and making things darker, consciously thinking about pressing harder to get darker tones, it simply doesn't happen. It doesn't matter how much I consciously think about integrating movement into movement into the picture, it simply doesn't happen. It doesn't matter that I see mistakes in my work, no attempt at fixing them ever improves the work. No teacher helps, no video course helps, no book helps. I have absolutely no idea what to do. I just want to get some fundamentals so I can draw anime. I feel absolutely terrible if I don't draw. so I'll just keep on drawing next year anyway, walking in circles again and again.
