My philosophy is that anything that helps you learn is a good thing. Exercise your boundaries and don't use SFM as a crutch but rather a tool. 3D models can be a great way to learn about anatomy and perspective in a way that only sculpting could have before. I think that it would be foolish not to utilize it as a learning tool just because it might be considered "cheating" by some people. Especially if you're not tracing, I don't see how this is any different from using a pose-able doll or something. If you're drawing every day and trying to improve there is no need to be hard on yourself.

I draw anime

So far from what I've seen and experienced, construction, grinding, fundies, gesture drawing, etc. etc. are all important, but developing your style and learning what looks good is just as important, even if it is animu garbage. Like, it feels as though so many of you guy spend a lotta time grinding and barely any time developing a style, so when you actually try to use your skills, it still looks like shit because it's only technically correct without any aesthetics. Even some styles with obvious issues that are from a clear lack of understanding fundies can still look really good. Maybe this is the wrong mindset, though. I've only been drawing a year. But, I can at least say I've made more progress in a year than many online people I know have made in 3-5 years. Anyway, I'm just rambling right now, honestly

Tonic immobility. Those crabs aren't moving because they're upside down.

Crabs need to be kept alive as long as possible because bacteria multiply quickly in their flesh after death, then explode due to changing salinity.

I tried to draw a dude the other day and just gave up 3 min through. I'm aware this makes me sound like a perv. At first I was convinced that I was just drawing them for studies and stuff, but now its the most enjoyable thing in the world to me.

Something I've realised is all of that is pseudo-work. And schedules, plans and the like aren't for discipline building, they actually require discipline. So instead of doing that, have a cold shower, get used to pushing yourself into discomfort. That's step one of training discipline. Then you go ahead and push yourself do item one on your schedule. Work your way up from there.

I'm the type of artists who despite loves to draw and learn in the process, I will never upload my art. Reasons are that the particular platform may becomes memed to death and unpopular. Also due to fear of backlash if someone finds out about shitty past art when you're trying to come clean, examples are Dobson with his inflation fetish and recently Emily Wiloughby with feral porn. Too much of a risk if you want to share your art passion or want to come clean from past cringy art.
