Ngmi thread

cute OP

>>4856040

>>4856037
>I plan to be hire-able at somewhere like Blizzard or something.
>like Blizzard
Honor points for an in-company store instead of real compensation? You must be really smart cookie.

>>4856037
You should've started when the pandemic started.
Valuable time has been lost.
Also, you're not going to do it.
NEXT.

>>4856045

Sadlawn where are you you’ve got company

>>4856046
Like I said, I have 8 months 17 hours a day dude. I am definitely going to do it, too. Stop projecting so hard.

>>4856049

>How do I become an olympic athlete in 8 months?

>>4856065
I think I have a pretty good starting place

>another beg to pro thread
>op gets hyped and manage to draw 16 hours in the first day
>burnout in the second day
Like clockwork

>>4856037
it would be nice if for once a dunning kruger would come in here with actual results showing their short term accomplishments

but every other week its "im gonna be blizzard level in under a year by grinding 25 hours a day" only to never to be heard from again unless it's to admit they couldn't do it. You're not any different OP, get ready for a long and difficult grind if you're serious. Unless you have a pro mentor dedicated towards helping you it won't happen in 8 months.

>>4856071
Not even close buddy

>>4856079
>thinking these people make it past 2 hours
unlikely

>>4856037
What base did you use for this, OP?

>>4856037
Yeah and I'm going /beg/ to high /beg/ in a day.

>>4856037
>I will have 17 hours a day to dedicate solely to practicing my art
i highly doubt you have the work ethics for this but even if you do that is seriously unhealthy
you literally cannot make it in a year

>>4856037
OP won’t even be able to post drawings until this thread hits bump limit

>he thinks he can improve
lmao

>>4856037
Oh look, another guy who has a plan to become a pro in less than a year.

you're either gonna:

a) burnout in a week and quit
b) burnout in a week and maybe doodle once in a week and be /beg/ tier forever.

>>4856037
kek, top quality bait anon

>>4856225

>>4856227
no it's pretty obvious and unoriginal bait
needs more Trollmis

>>4856037
Ok I'm interested, is there a place where we can follow your progress? or why don't you try posting in /DAD/ ? people in there will probably be a little more supportive, unless this is just bait..

>the "go pro in 1 year" faggots have downgrades their timeframe to 8 months now
jesus fucking christ

Make a blog , op. I wanna see the first day post then nothing else afterwards kek

>>4856050
>Stop [HEADCANON[
See?
You are one of like 10 or 15 that have made multiple threads like this over the course of this year. All have seemingly dropped off the face of the earth instead of posting their progress like they said they would. You won't be any different.
You freaks get high off of the rush of saying you'll do something then crack under the pressure when you realize that its harder and more stressful than you thought it was actually going to be.

>>4856100
lol
Nice dubs btw

>>4856037
You're another of those "I'll be drawing 16 hours a day" people who end up drawing 2 hours a week if not less. If you truly had what it takes you would already be working hard on forming habits, drawing hours a day instead of posting here. You have zero idea how mentally and physically exhausting it is to work as a professional. You're heavily delusional thinking you'll suddenly start drawing 17 hours a day if you are at this level as an adult. People you look up to have been drawing daily for their whole teenagehood and continue working much harder than you. Stop being delusional as the first step and then start drawing 8 hours a day, I guarantee you'll drop out in a week.

>>4856037
blog?

>>4856037
nothing but crabs here
just draw
but remember
improvement is less about milage and more about learning
you can spend your entire life drawing chicken scratch if no one tells you that you should not be doing that
learn new ways to draw and right ways to draw when you draw

Serious question, how do people even imagine drawing for 16, let alone 17 hours every day?
Even disregarding fatigue, when do you eat, sleep, cook, maintain hygiene, stave away muscular atrophy and so on?
I actually time I draw, and I mean pencil to paper draw, not read, watch videos, etc. and I have to put in effort to do 3 hours of solid studying. Drawing your own stuff is easier, but not 14 hours easier.
Do these people have nurses holding out bedpans and giving them sponge baths while they draw high on cocaine or something?

we have this thread every day

>>4856393
statistically one of them has to succeed, maybe we’re retarded for not trying it

>>4856037
nice. post in beg, i will wait. post blog

>>4856037
You're drawing for clout, not for fun. NGMI

>>4856037
have you heard about the vagina method?

My favorite is the guy that was going to surpass bbc chan in a year

>>4856506
don’t do this, it will ruin your tablet

>>4856517
what is it?

>>4856037
If You're serious here have this

https://www.docdroid.net/xOR0PYp/27275-pdf

But this guide is cursed. If you start it and give up halfway very bad things will start to happen in your life you'll see

>>4856037
It' impossible to practice 17 hours a day, you will burn out faster than my GPU trying to run ultra setting on modern game. but then again I practice about 4 hours a day in average and barely improve.

>>4856291
>instead of posting their progress
only a retard will continue posting their progress here.
People will just constantly shit on the progress and asks the person to give up

it's been 10 hours surely OP must have drawn something

>>4856691
Ngmi quit now loser

I always love this thread, See you in 8 months OP

>>4856037
>I want to make art in order to get money.
Get a different hobby.

>>4856779
OP must have already drawn for 10 hours. Only 7 more to go ;)

>>4856665
Post your work.

>>4856373
>8 hours
Nah, he should start with even less. If you’re a mega beginner even doing something smaller like 3 hours daily at the start feels like a lot.

most artists aren't makimg money
not a lot anyway
and by most i don't mean only 1 out of 3 make money, its more like 1 out of a 10,000 are actually able to make a stable living soley off art

>>4856087
It’s taken me 20 months and I’ve only gone from /beg to upper /beg.

Post some of the work you have made since or i'm deeming you NGMi

>>4856087
I am posting my progress every month and I am active on /beg and sometimes post on /alt. It's going ok even if it's a bit slower than expected.

starting with draw a box.

>>4856246
Fuck off with your dad cult

>>4856246
die dadshitter

Good bait thread, OP. You hit all the right notes to make good bait; the classic dunning-kruger hallmarks of "how hard can it be?" attitude, "I've always liked drawing and stuff since I was a kid", the unreasonable time-frame for improvement, and for the cherry on top, the shitty art in the OP pic. The only problem is that it's just too perfect, like it was tailor-made for this board. The non-sequitur troll image replies >>4856044 >>4856048 give it away too. Good job nonetheless, OP, you're no Ken M. but this is much better than the low-effort wojak thread spamming last night.

>>4859511
Thanks bro. You went through my thought process creating this thread almost perfectly. It was indeed tailor-made for this board, since it's the one I know the best. Those images are actually somebody else though.

>>4859902
What gave it away to me is the "I should have a way to make some cash on the side"
Still gave me a laugh though

>>4856037
Do you have a Twitter/ blog we can watch or keep up with you on op? Also good luck!

>>4856272
Remember the better than BBC Chan in three months guy? He was my favorite. Sadlawn was just the first I remember, but I think he is still drawing with more realistic goals.

>>4856037
SOUL....

if I were you and didn't have a full time job, a gf, other hobbies etc
I would try a manga-ka style work week for 1 week
see if you can pump out a chapter of work
if so hey good on you brother
if not hey you tried
either way maybe do it again ?
look at one's progress

>>4856037
weak bait, I can't believe /ic/ fell for this

>>4862835
It’s easy to trick retards

>17 hours a day

You'll die of a nasty blood clot retard. Oh wait, it's bait.

Serious question: Why does it take so long to get to intermediate or low expert? There's plenty of video proof of people learning to play instruments, becoming conversational in a foreign language, and putting up decent fights in chess with seasoned players within 1-6 months. Why is learning art supposedly much more difficult? What makes it different than any other skill where focused practice and quick feedback can take a beginner to intermediate in the same amount of time?

>>4862953
it's too abstract since it's so much imagination oriented.

>>4862953
I strongly think it's a difficulty difference. Most people try to start with faces and bodies which are the hardest to draw. I could be wrong.

>>4862835
I can. We have drama threads people from tumblr, twitter, etc. Migrating over here. If it was old /ic/ they maybe would have not taken the bait.
