At what point do you decide to just give up and pick up a different hobby?

>> No.4766940

Never. It's easier to get decent at drawing than it is to find something else you're passionate about, and even if you do find another hobby you'll just quit that too.

>> No.4766955

>>4766902
Never. I want to create beauty, so I'll keep striving.

What would be considered mid /int/. I need a point of reference here.

>> No.4766984

You don't ever give up. The fact you are feeling that way means you are getting better. You recognize the flaws in your work and that is the first step to fixing them and getting better.

>> No.4766989

if you can't draw realistically within a year, just give up.

these are arbitrary labels, and the person who said that you're hopeless said that as a joke. please do yourself a favour and stop comparing your progress to what random strangers on the internet say

Really? I thought it’d look a bit better than that?

I’m /beg/ but if that’s mid /int/ what does /pro/ look like

>> No.4767013

>>4767000
I wouldn't disagree. Is nice.
>>4767004
I am genuinely curios as to what anons consider beg/int/pro. Somewhere there has to be an average as to what you can consider a work at a certain skill level.

Fukumoto certainly wanted to give up when he was drawing like pic related, which is shameful for a mighty Asian.
But you know what? he didn't, he pushed through even when he just wanted to play some mahjong with his friends,
and now he has anime using his artstyle and he is known worldwide.
his drawings are still shit though

when you find another hobby that just feels right for you.

>> No.4767958

>>4767872
His drawings aren't shit he just draws ugly characters on purpose. Obviously the art in your pic is crude but that was early on his character. The sheer consistency he maintains when drawing characters is pretty skillful.

Let me guess. You're just another impressionable guess giving bad advice. I wouldn't even say this is /int/

There are two categories. The people who have fun, and the ones who still think they can get anything else from art that isn't it.

if it's a hobby, why would you even consider giving up?
if you want to stack coins then have a part time job while grinding on your project
