>using references for the right reasons is ""just cheating"" now
I fucking hate this board. You don't have the knowledge to draw different angles from imagination, you admit that when you rotate your subject it immediately looks like shit but studying real life pictures to see how such a rotation actually functions is "just cheating" and somehow limits your ability to draw from imagination. Imagination is prior experiences/information that you've taken in getting rearranged in different and original ways, if you don't have that vocabulary drilled into you from real world studies you're trying to build from nothing and everything you do will keep turning out looking as autistic as the OP pic.
