If you've been drawing for nearly 15 years, and you're still in the 'It's not spectacular but at least some people are worse' tier than that's pretty bad m8.

I'm genuinely trying not to hate, but pic related is not something I would expect from an artist that has been in the game for more than a decade.

I'd like to offer some advice I know. This person in this video is only as good as their training is. Its the same with all of us. Therefore the blame is not on his *potential* being reached. Far from it. Its just simply that his idea for improving is not good. An idea can be improved on very easily.

When you see that video you should be absolutely sure to check your own approach to improving and make sure its taking you where you want to go. People will argue that if you don't have the experience of being good then you can't define what good is.
And if you can't define what good is, they argue you can't make plans to get there.

Simply not true.

The thing is, if your training is very comprehensive and has been planned out from the beginning to reliably train you up and teach every important niche topic in your medium responsible for making something look fantastic, thats what you'll get.

I argue with my entire soul that any person struggling to make their art good is just using a method of training that couldn't improve the greatest artists in history. You fix the training, you fix your results.

If my weight lifting program is designed for me to reliably get a bench press of 300 in two years, guess where i'll be in two years? You guess it. 300 pound bench press. Without talent or genius or anything.

remember what Jeff Watts said? you either be an artist everyone wants to emulate, or the type that everyone wants to avoid. i want to avoid being like Sycra. he does art for so many years but is still crap, i cannot believe it, he is also kind of a coward, like being too afraid to try new things. oh and bobmeatbag is fucked too because he hangs out with sycra too much, he could be the next Ruan Jia if not influenced by Sycra.

I remember a video in which Sycra admitted he quit his day job in order to pursue Art, and that there are days he doesn't make as much money from it as he'd like to. I feel as if he's afraid to begin anew and learn his fundamentals because he cannot just up and stop producing his current work.

Maybe he's afraid to change his "style" in fear of losing his current audience and commission requests. He's just drawing because he depends on it financially. He's even paid a lot of money to have professionals teach him how to draw caricatures, among other things, and that's another reason, isn't it? He's spent so much money and does not want to put it to waste.

I honestly don't believe he truly adores Art, and that he's just depressed (obviously) about his whole situation. He doesn't want to get a job because - correct me if I'm wrong - he is shy around others in real life. Maybe I'm wrong and he is completely content about his life, and has always wanted to draw mediocrely in order to make just enough money to pay for rent and food. Some people really don't mind such a lifestyle.

He used to talk how he'd look at Kim Jung Gi's sketchbook for inspiration and motivation, but why would you need to motivate yourself? Because you cannot make yourself draw otherwise. I like Sycra as a person, but I pity him. He doesn't seem to be happy at all and only pretends to be nice to his viewers in order to forget his troubles, and remind himself that doing this is okay. Maybe I'm overthinking.

you are right, he sepnds so much money on art education and is stilll shit while a non educated guys like Dan Fking Luvisi is doing cool shit all over the place, and younger too. i think sycra has this victim mentality, he thinks his problems are unique and that gives him the excuse to think it is okay to have his life fucked up.

Kienan Lafferty is like this. He's a really uplifting guy in a Ned flanders sort of way. His attitude might take a bit to adjust to but he's a genuinely nice guy. He does Art stuff with some lifecoaching stuff sort of thrown in there too on his channel.

I knew you would resort to that as a defence,
Firstly there is no such thing as a decent caricature, and second even firez can manage pull off a half decent looking painting from reference which means precisely nothing when it comes to working from imagination, as is evident just from looking at their galleries. I will concede that his caricatures look ok even though I fucking hate the genre but you can't really use it as a metric to judge someone's skill level as it requires almost no knowledge of the fundamentals. Just thought I'd add that Sycra seems to be a likeable guy so I'm not hating on him as a person. He shouldn't be teaching people though, even when I was just starting out I could see that he was a weak artist and avoided his tutorials, same with Riven phoenix but somehow people make the mistake of learning from these people I have no idea why. It would be like turning down the opportunity to learn golf from Tiger Woods (Vilppu, Hampton etc) in order to learn from some amateur with a shit handicap. (Sycra, Riven Phoenix etc)

Sycra's art looks pretty bad but what is he good at?

training, he's good for training future or would be artist while I find his style bad his approach for getting to it and how it instructs other to find their own is brilliant

He will never be shitmechan but I respect him for he has a still style but is practically 100% (he's done fanart but doesn't thrive or live off it)

Sycra is what art deserve but doesn't need right now

So we'll hate him

How does caricature not require knowledge of the fundamentals? You need a firm grasp on the fundamentals in order to effectively caricature a face. When you caricature You're just playing around with proportions but still adhering to fundamental principles . am I missing something?
