/ic/ is hell on earth
being a beginner artist is absolute suffering
this process is fucking horrific, this place is hell, everyone here is maintained in a perpetual state of sincere anguish due to this fucking tormentous task of improving artistic skill. fuck this. every one of you know that its true. we are put here to experience this intense pyschological agony for years and years and eventually 90% of us will quit after investing countless wasted hours and money. this road you walk down is soaked in blood and excrement and every step is over corpses and indescribable fleshy masses. this is torture.

find someone who made it from ic (without submitting to lazy porn) and ask them what you should do

>> No.3647972

You know, most normal people start drawing because they enjoy it.

The agony shouldn't really exist until you plateau at high-level mediocrity like myself.

Torture makes you stronger in the end my boy. Life isn't all sunshine.

>> No.3648535

Maybe you should see a therapist or something. You’re supposed to enjoy your hobbies even though they can be frustrating. If the board is bothering you because it’s toxic then take a break.

I'm also here bro. How do we get out?

>> No.3648702

only way to get better is through sacrifice.
>step 1.remove any distraction.
leave any 4chan related content (website,discord servers,steam groups,etc).dont interact,post (even your art) or read any social media in fact if you can get rid of them entirely do it.dont question it just fucking do it.all this stuff is poison for your mind.
>step 2. draw a lot,read books,copy artists you like
>step 3. reward yourself
use fun things(vidya,anime,etc) as reward after you drew a lot (ratio 5:1,3:1 is fine as starting point).remember no 4chan.
>step 4. give up.
giving up is probably going to happen.perhaps you couldn't keep up with the program or hate your current drawings or you can't avoid shitposting on 4chan.try again this time with more effort.

You and every fuck like you needs to quit and find a different hobby to pursue. You're obviously not enjoying yourself AT ALL continuing to shit around like you are currently. If it's such torture, you shouldn't be fucking doing it.
