[Anonymous No.4050448]

What if your biggest fear when comes to your art path?

Never finding "my style" here.

The only viable art website for making commissions in my country takes 85% of the total earnings an artists makes off their commissions. I heard that the admin is planning to bump it to 95% by next year...

Never building discipline and die being still mediocre. I don't care about legacy, mind you, just not reaching my potential

[Anonymous No.4050537]

>>4050448
Fear of drawing my next drawing like shit, when I draw something fairly okay before. Especially with things like symmetry of the face.

[Anonymous No.4050544]

>>4050448
Finding out I'm not actually interested in/enjoy drawing, I fear I might be doing this just to avoid feeling like I'm doing nothing.

I also can't move past doing exercises, even though I have some ideas for original drawings I fear I won't like the end result.

You need to lose this fear of failure, of course you're gonna suck hard when you try something for a first time, but if you keep doing it you're gonna get better.

Me too and seeing those “progress” thread make my more paranoid

[Anonymous No.4050574]

>>4050448
Highly unlikely, but I'm scared going to lose my temper while critiquing, badly phrase an art tutorial, or make a controversial tweet on the art community that invokes a mini manga materials like backlash. I'm mainly paranoid about this because if someone from a culture known for being well mannered got that much backlash what would happen to someone who browses IC.

Getting in an accident/dying before i finish all the pieces i want to make.

Or all of my work being destroyed with me. If none of it outlives me, what's the point???

[Anonymous No.4050646]

One day giving it up because I can't live up to what I envision and then regretting it when I'm old and dying.

What did he mean by this?

[Anonymous No.4050701]

That I'm at the peak of my skill level and I won't get better.

[Anonymous No.4050712]

Becoming a video game concept artist and finding out I hate the work. This one actually came true. Not only do I have to do 3d and photobash 90% of the time to meet the soulcrushing deadlines, but I don't even like games anymore. I feel myself stagnating cause I barely just paint anymore, but I don't have the time/energy to do personal work.

[Anonymous No.4050713]

>>4050448

Success.

[Anonymous No.4050721]

>>4050712
this, I'm not in concept but I do boards. I wanted to do it because I love comics but its just like that. I'm tracing and photobashing just to meet a deadline. I'm not really making art, just finishing a project.

[Anonymous No.4050734]

That I will keep being such a lazy piece of shit.

[Anonymous No.4050737]

That people will like what I make and then get bored of it and move on to the next fresh and interesting thing. Basically that I'd have to rely on gimmicks to get people interested, rather than having a set loyal audience or having any meaningful skill in writing or art. That I will never have that one thing that all other artist's seem to inherently have and that everyone's just viewing my stuff out of pity.
