I truly hated Walter in this scene. Such a pointless, undignified, death, done in such a childish fit of rage. Yet I still rooted for him. Great show.

How much do you draw a day?, if you are doing excercies to grind fundies and then aplying them to your drawings for 2 years and haven't improve yet, then you simply are just a brainlet.

Go outside to a nearby park when it's sunny. Look at a tree, and try to draw it. Separate the dark side of the tree from the light side. Look carefully at how the tree curves, and look for a mixture of straight movements and hard breaks vs. curves.

Stop drawing same figure shit, draw other things to expand repertoire and then go back to figure and apply it.

I am almost certain that you're not enjoying yourself. This shouldn't feel like work - it should be fun.

Take a step back and throw all that rigid, clinical fundies shit out the window, and start making work that is actually fun for you to make. Make it as dumb and as stylized and as fundamentally flawed as you want. If there's an artist/illustrator that you really admire, then stop trying to make work like them.

>how do I cope
you are coping right now because you are lazy and don't want to read or probably draw for that matter. The only one to blame is yourself, don't try to learn to draw well if you aren't willing to put in the effort. Go enjoy life and stop wasting time beating yourself up over something you'll never accomplish.

Grinding this shit will kill your enjoyment of the process of drawing & painting. If you already are struggling to practice this stuff, forcing yourself to go through these is a death sentence for your motivation.

Draw a comic.
Doesn't matter if it's good. All that matters is that it's a clear goal every day that will challenge your perspective, composition, anatomy, landscape etc skills.
Just keep it simple. x character walks from point A to point B. The goal is just to give yourself an idea to draw every day.

add Force by Mike Mattesi to that list. People meme it but it clicks for some people. The idea of the leading edge is especially helpful for /beg/s.

I totally disagree. These books were a lot of fun. Dodson is great fun for beginners. I don't know why you didn't enjoy them. Perhaps you are in the wrong mindset, or grinding too hard. Both are bad for learning and art. It's a shame you think this really.

vilppu isn't something you grind, he's a cheat engine that makes all your other drawing efforts easier.
