I see thousands upon thousands of artists on the internet, each of whom is genuinely dozens of times better than myself, and in spite of how much effort I put into my own work, it does not seem that I'll ever reach a level even faintly comparable to even their laziest sketch, nor one where I can even look upon my work without being reminded of my failures and inferiority, alongside the overarching fear that I am somehow innately incapable of creating anything of beauty or real aesthetic value, and my efforts to even get to this pitiful point and achieve one of my lifetime goals were hilariously pointless. Every line I draw is a spit in the face, a constant reminder of my limitations and the Sisyphian futility of trying to improve it, of trying to carve something that even slightly resembles what's in my mind to paper.
So yeah.

lol all the happy fun people usually get driven away by the odd person/crabby saying faggot and ngmi but I find it to be entertaining banter. I don't think it's that serious. I feel like going on an anonymous image board is the best place to get honest feedback since no one feels the need to be "nice" or fake on here

That aside, I feel like there are some people who are chill and happy but the bitter people kinda seethe when they see people happy lol so they usually don't draw attention to themselves. but I've only been here for like a week so not too sure. Maybe the longterm users have a different opinion?

They've been in financial trouble for quite some time. Also if you check a lot of popular artists pages, you may notice that they have a LOT of members now, this is fudged by the website because since their retarded update, they now count free follows for public posts as members as well as people who used to be subbed but are no longer. Many people there don't even have half as many subscribers as the page wants to show you. The site is doing this to impress investors.

You do have to grind, but you should enjoy grinding. I think the internet gives people an embarrassment of resources and it breaks people's minds. You hear a lot of stories of boomer artists who had one book from their library that they studied forever and they were happy to have it. I'm not "old good new bad" but there are so many tools and resources that any fucking moron should theoretically be able to get to low int. on they own.

Conceptart.org was tough love and it worked just fine. Tons of industry vets spawned there. First time I posted five people gangraped me, tore up my drawings in front of the class and used me as an example of how to do virtually everything wrong. They told me to go back to the most basic fundamentals like how to draw a line and actually helped me through each stage with useful feedback I could integrate. My subject matter is still cringe weeb trash but at least it's technically solid enough to sell online now. Tough love is useful. My 'peers' on deviantart did nothing but lick my balls and trap me in a hug box that caused stagnation.

/ic/ however isn't tough love at all. /ic/ is 90% self-defeat, cynicism, projection, barely managed schizophrenia, chronic depression, self-hate, sobbing, crabbing, compulsive larping and pathetic faggotry, topped off with whining about "genetic fate" and the occasional neo-nazi rant about how Hitler was the ideal artist. There's nuggets of wisdom scattered around the board, but it's mostly just a dumping ground for misery. And fair enough. That shit's gotta go somewhere.

Art is a purgatory in which you burn away your weakness to attain higher purity of the soul. This is an agonizing process.

>> No.6894539

It's simple: you pursue a stupid dream, you get a stupid life.

Art is an extremely lonely and miserable pursuit filled with pain, poverty, direct confrontation with one's deepest insecurities and inadequacies, and 99% of even its most committed zealots statistically won't make it. The rare percentage that do make it, they discover that the rest of the world doesn't care at all about them or what they've made. They realize they're only respected by the handful of fans they've acquired, which consist almost entirely of lesser artists who are all doomed, and that everything they believed in was a lie.

While normal people are out fucking and partying and making children and supporting the economy and actually experiencing life, artists stay at home like parasites and draw fake people doing fake things because they mentally stopped maturing at 15 and cocooned themselves in fantasies instead of facing reality.

It's funny to me just how real of a picture /ic/ actually paints of the 'artistic temperament.' In normal settings, artists put on insufferable, ingratiating masks. They act like happy children when they get compliments from the normies, they fake being upbeat and cheerful and stoked about everything. Meanwhile, they're constantly seething. They hide their true thoughts, pretend not to hold extremist positions about virtually everything, and are carrying around decades of resentment and disgust for a world they can't help but experience as a degenerated wasteland, filled to the brim with the gayest, ugliest shit they can't even begin to relate to. They watch as traditions are swept away by their own peers who produce endless mountains of disposable trend chasing garbage to feed algorithms. They gave away all of their work for free or for pennies on the deluded gamble that the "people will appreciate them," counting on them to not throw them away like the garbage they know themselves to be.

Artists are angry and miserable because artists are shitty people.

I speak as someone that has been board on and off since like 2010 - everyone that makes it leaves.

I work full time as an artist in Australia now, and I only rarely come on here to see if there's people seeking direction for the specific industry I work in, so I can help them break into that industry.

Most of the erotic artists make it big on patreon, instagram and twitter, and get sick of being told they're shit by a dude who will post merc.wip when asked to show some work.

Entertainment/ visdev artists dont want to be associated with 4chan once they break through into the industry.

What is left is either art students who arent as good as they think they are, intermediate artists who havent broken through (or dont know how), who are getting gifted child syndrome, or beginners who critique when they cant even draw a cube from any angle.

Draw what you like drawing, it's all about mileage, and eventually you'll get a following who's in love with whatever you post.

Artists have been a parasite / casteless class since the start of human history. They're not special, nothing they do is MaGiCaL or difficult (a bunch of 20 year old programmers with no art experience out did them at their own game) they're just entitled, hyper sensitive meatbags crying for muh "acceptance and respect" that they don't deserve and can never earn. All they ever did was make disposable pictures to entertain people who actually grew up and worked for a living. And those people have AI now. Nobody needs these pathetic faggots anymore.

/i/ is essentially 4chan's version of Nintendo DS Pictochat, it's an entirely different thing than what you are comparing it to. Calling it doodling is not accurate because most posts are being drawn deliberately with focus and intent - as opposed to being absentminded or secondary. Artists there are also limited by the applet they use to create their artwork, it has certain flaws and a raw quality that is uniquely challenging to work in. There is also a different mindset about art that is being posted there because it's exclusively done as a hobby, standards for technical/creative ability are low and criticism isn't generally welcomed.

A good /i/ thread has an extremely high image to post ratio, almost no discourse between posters, and will last well over a year.

I was going to give a proper response to this with some actual advice on how to socialize and Be Happy but instead I have one question since my good will would probably be wasted on you anyways:
What is with you pedophiles and always trying to blame shit on others that you, and only you, do? Most (if not all) of what you've written here is just fanfiction you've created about multiple groups (badly written btw) in order to justify your current behavior (being an antagonistic, anti-social faggot pretty much everywhere you go) but that all aside, what exactly is the infatuation? Is it a political thing? A personal vendetta? Or is it some type of cope you guys come up with so you don't feel like a bunch of freaks for drawing CP lite? Genuine question btw

Also!
Look in a mirror dude, you're obviously the problem if you're being kicked out everywhere you go, on 4chan of all places. This website is like grounds zero for socializing, maybe try being nicer to people if you don't like being kicked out of group after group. You don't get to be an asshole unwarranted and then try to throw a pity party once people RIGHTFULLY decide that they don't want to be around your miserable ass. Retard.

This board is comprised of people who spent their whole life drawing and never “made it,” beginners, and coomers who draw weird porn.

The advanced artists on here are bitter because they realized after copying Bridgman and Loomis 20 times and filling sketchbooks with boring studies, they never actually took time to enjoy their art.

The beginners are bitter because they are told their art is garbage and they have to do 1000000 studies before it will ever be worthwhile to draw. It seems like a Sisyphean effort to even draw for fun.

And then the coomers are just weird as fuck honestly and bring nothing of value to any discussion. This should be a blue board.

Because drawing is one of the worst hobbies one can pick up. And to add salt to the wound, most anons here, whether they admit it or not, dream of "making it". But at the same time, most anons know deep down it will never happen. Not only will most here never make a career out of it but most won't even reach a passable level. Again though, they know this but they've sunk far too much time, energy, and money to quit.
Imagine wanting to enter such a highly competitive, over saturated field. Even if your goal isn't an art job you still have to deal with constant self doubt thanks to the thousands of artists around you, probably producing better work despite being the same age if not younger. Also add the fact that most anons on this site have little going on in their actual lives.
And going back to age, I strongly feel that anons starting in their 20s is another factor in their anger. Majority of pros have been drawing under mentors since childhood. Even with all the resources we have now, an adult in their 20s will have to deal with their more critical mind. A kid is more likely to look past their bad art, an adult will not be so lucky.

I feel like l know the guy who this happened to, which is how I know it's not him. Besides constantly name-dropping people you don't like all of the time only makes you fujos look like a gang of rabid-ass dramawhores and schizos to the onlookers and it makes people really not want to associate with you guys.

NTA but if this friend of yours was in Delta's little circle of fags or with whoever owned that Discord, I can assure you they weren't banned because of some "fujotranny" conspiracy. Based on my own personal experience with maro, and what others have shared with me about some of the others? They came into the servers and stirred a bunch of shit with randos for no real reason, got spanked, and searched for any excuse they could find to cover for their own schizo bullshit. Which it seems you more than happily ate up without question. It's bad enough even his own friends begged Delta to back off. If it was someone else, then I don't know.

I'm thinking of a different discord altogether from the delta shit and don't get me wrong he's a colossal faggot nigger in the highest order and so is the guy im thinking of (everyone dunked on him for being a fag too not just the fujos). Problem is that constantly bringing attention to this schizodom just makes everyone envolved look like whiny little bitches the more you see it. Like if 4chan has made you this mad then it's time get the fuck off of it. You don't need to go full Paul Reviere every single time something reminds you of some schizo, anon. It just gives the schizo more reason to do schizo shit and this board is gay enough as it is.

>Even the anons who actually draw all sound so fucking depressing
emotional vampire situation
people that aren't depressed aren't going to stick around long enough to deal with the depressed if the depressed in question has no intent to change.
the depressed usually make large statements like "i am quitting art!!" "i am quitting ic!!!" "i hate art!!" "i am leaving discord!!!" but nobody cares (or good riddance), but they never really do even if it could be good for them mentally to take a break for a month or even 6+.
The other people (non-depressed) just silently quit and ghost communication. It's why new cliques are formed; it's to avoid your depressed ass.
Case in point: the past 4 IC discords, Redlineguy, Crimson Daggers once it opened the floodgates

there's also something I like to call validation-porn where people consume content that validates them regardless of the subject. Usually it's politics, but some people "hate" politics and just want "art" but they simply replace one vice with another to drag down with them and offer no meaningful insight or addition to the subject.
They are merely here to
1. gather tutorials, reference, artbooks, "planning material" or pdfs with no actual plans or intent to use them right away, but more for collection purposes. The saving of a tutorial = easy validationpoint. "I have done something! I have saved this tutorial about anime eyes that consists of 3 panels and I haven't even actually looked at it!"
2. consume discussions and often derail them into debate; they do not look to improve themselves or further their understanding or logic but instead wish for the validation of being right so they post extremely biased opinions not in the hopes of furthering the discussion but "winning the argument". Another key takeaway to spot one is when they refer to "the people" or the majority instead of their own personal experiences. Often also because they have no personal experiences to base their arguments.

If you feel so confident to namedrop people then you should at least feel confident enough to post your own damn work with it otherwise you're just another PUSSY trying to stir up shit while hiding behind le anonymity.
Idc how hurt your feefees are or how justified you might feel because at the end of the day you're all just a bunch of losers trying to play turf war and crying foul the second it backfires on you all while dragging down random unsuspecting people who have nothing to do with this shit.

Imagine seeing a girl you like get asked out by a guy you know for a fact is a complete asshole, and you just have to let her get abused by him. Then she turns around and calls you abusive and a bad boyfriend. Next, imagine going to Mcdonalds and people keep cutting in front of you in line. Whenever you say something, the manager tells you to leave, so you just sit there and take it. When it's finally your turn to order, they tell you it will cost this much, so you pay. Then the guy after you orders the same thing, but the cashier tells him it's only a dollar. You bring this up and they say that you just need to keep grinding orders.

This is what its like to draw. There's nothing fair about this. In fact its the most unfair hobby, even though it looks like and is pushed as a meritocracy. "Just draw" "just practice your fundies and it'll all work out" meanwhile people with no fundies are drawing way better than you. You spend hours and days and months and years toiling away and being forced to face your lack of skill for very small incremental gains, while everyone around you doodles a bit and gets endless praise for it.

The real redpill is that art really is a competition whether anons admit it or not. If you want an art job, you NEED to outrun your peers. Comparing yourself to others is inevitable. I think a lot of artist feel similar to you but since they're constantly lying about their beliefs they'll feed you some feel good reddit bullshit about self fulfilment. Get rid of these artists' commissions, jobs, and freelancing and they'll crumble. Look at all the popular twatter artists that have breakdowns when their follower count stalls for more than 2 days.

While those groups all sound completely awful, that's not what every group is like. As another anon pointed out, saying you hate everyone is a pretty big indicator that you are acting like an insufferable bitch(hopefully due to being younger than 23)

And what if you don't want an art job, is it still a competition then?

>> No.6915871

>>6915719
only if you want to make money off it.

>>6915871
Do the majority of the board want to make money off their art? That's a genuine question, because I don't lurk here often and I'm not aware of the general mood. I think most of the problems that were mentioned about the competitiveness of the art should disappear if you don't want to compete commercially, but they still persist even in those anons who make art as a hobby.

this place is a melting pot so i couldn't give you an exact metric, but there are a good chunk of people here who want or even have worked in the industry. another chunk who do freelance commission gigs. and all those in between. then of course there's the hobbyists and no-draws who give unsolicited advice in every thread

He doesn't even draw in most of the gerenals he schizos over. He just shows up stomp his shit into there tub drains and screams unintelligible shit. Pedophilic pokefurs not even once.

I mean, obviously I wouldn't mind making money off my drawings, but it's not the end goal or anything. It'd just be nice and encouraging to have some positive feedback that my art has some actual tangible value (money) rather than people pretending to like it because I pity bait.

I desire to be among a group of people who can tear my art apart for some thorough criticism like conceptart.org did (although I've never seen conceptart org before), but none of the discords I'm in do that... I'm wondering where I can find a group like this

Rose-tinted shades. The problems were always there from the beginning. Less of an invasion and more of a metamorphosis into something of a pressure relief valve. A digital, controllable Gaza Strip where enablers (Delta for example) shit up threads and chase anons off while women, fags, and actual pedos take up the emptied out space.
