Cute poners lad

I own the iPad but I still prefer my Intuos Large by a substantial margin-it's nice to mess around with when I'm dogsitting at my parents' though. I've had a Cintiq QHD 27 and I'd easily take the iPad of any model over that though.

>no parallax (It's pretty fucking bad on the Cintiq)
>convenient size
>no intermittent Wacom driver issues

>There’s a fair chance Apple will update the regular iPad in 2-3 months

This. In either case there's really no need to rush.

Has anyone tried using Affinity Photo, by the way? It looks like a reasonable facsimile to photoshop

NO DREAM IS TOO BIG (except maybe the getting out of /beg/ part)

I don't think I'm going to make it, dudes. I've been drawing for like five years and all I can manage is not--quite-anatomically correct handless and weightless figures floating in space.

>can't draw feet
>can't draw landscapes
>can't draw perspective, buildings or machines
>can't draw drapery or costumes
>can't design
>can't color or paint
>can't even remember how to draw the things that I knew how to draw yesterday

in short

>I can't do any of the things that make a visual artist what they are

and

>I'm not sure if I can even convince myself I want to or ever wanted to, anymore

While I'd refused to admit it, I guess I've been living a lie this entire time.

I've tried crippling myself financially by giving money away, cutting off what little social ties I have as much as possible and quitting video games to try and instigate a change in my mindset-but instead of confronting my weaknesses like someone motivated to improve and be productive should I'd hidden from them and excuse myself one way or another. Every day is precious dudes, the moment you deviate from your purest of intentions is the moment you'll realize the day is already over. Don't fall into a psychological timeloop like I have, if you're reading this post and you haven't started "taking yourself seriously" yet, I encourage you to start right now because it doesn't get any easier as time goes one, I promise you.
