I've grinded drawing circles, I've grinded drawing squares, all these fucking shapes for months on end. Spent money on books which I read cover to cover-- Bought tons of fucking brain stimuli to help myself focus on the sole task of drawing hot cartoon characters.

So why the FUCK can't I produce anything good? Is it genetics? Am I fucking retarded? What do you assholes have that I don't? Is it money? What the fuck is it? Are you sucking dick for free Master lessons?

Just stop. Obviously it doesn't work for you, you'll have to try other ways before being demotivated. Did you try drawing plenty of hot cartoons characters instead of circles and squares? Not even joking, suffer through some Bargue plates to acquire a basic ability to copy decently, then copy hot cartoon characters from your favorite artists. Then draw them again from memory. See if it works better than circles and squares.

Let me let you in on a secret. The griding circles, squares, ellipses aka draw a box style shit is a meme. First of all before Draw A Box or Dynamic Sketching it was called "viscom" or visual communication. This was a course designed for concept designers and a niche course taken by art center students. By the time Han plagued the internet by his rebranding of "viscom" it was a matter of time before some loser(S) (yes that's plural) copied is teachings (though not really his, passed down to him) and poisoned the well with watered down version of Dynamic Sketching to what we know as draw a box.

It wasn't just the ISIS member, soon Matt Khor did it, SVS did it, every youtuber dick and ham did it to """teach""" beginners how to draw when this is far from the case of everyones goals. Back then on the internet there was no such thing of grinding circles like a mad retard. If you want to see what it was like in 2005 just go to CA and look through the old sketchbooks.

In short, too much information has plagued the internet with confusion.

Not having the intuition to know that "grinding" gets you nowhere means you probably wouldn't have gotten far in art anyway. Fishing is a more suitable hobby.

I grinded in such a manner and I'm glad I did. I can put a line pretty much exactly where I want it very easily. If I wasn't a piece of garbage that takes months-long breaks from drawing seriously I would have substantially increased the rate at which I'd have been liable to improve, I guarantee it.

OP is dragging himself down. He is calling himself retarded. He is shutting himself off to criticism that would help him because the safety of the bucket is more familiar and safe than the pain of a wounded ego.

>>3198825
You should assume he is lying until he provides evidence to the contrary. Lack of effort is the most common reason artists here fail - they claim they drew “sooooo many boxes” when they really just drew a couple pages and didn’t bother paying attention to perspective. Or they do as OP already admitted to doing and count passive research time as active practice time.

this 100%. Truth be told. You get better at what you draw more of. Doesn't mean you'll be super good at drawing lets say anime in this case, if your super good at drawing circles or squares. Silly me, but I used to think I could draw prettier anime if I worked on my handwriting... Back then I realize how delusional I was..

>> No.3198984

>>3198915

Thing is the overall goal for anyone practising art would be to eventually learn to draw anything from request. Of course you can't memorize every single thing on Earth so you need to work with references for specific requests but if you want to learn to "specifically draw anime", you have the wrong mindset for the overall learning process.
