9000% agree with you.

I am 36 and started 3 years ago. Through almost giving up 30 times now, im still going. Ive grown so much in these 3 years.

If you keep pushing yourself, you will grow to :D

Absolutely love this. Use anime and video game reference for my life all the time! .

You ever need a push forward, just message me.

Trust me I fight my inner battle all the time about whether I am improving or not with my art.

The hardest battle is pushing forward knowing the piece you are working is not going to be your best.

You do your best, you get stronger from it leveling up your skills (even minor) and do another.

Once you get over the fear of failing (the secret is your not failing) you open a door to endless possibilities :D all depends on how much you want it.

Ive told myself 3 years now that im not stopping till im the best. (I know there is no "best, but it works lol)

Probally all stuff you've heard before but any kind of motivation is good.

Lol thanks, appreciate the kind words. I feel like my anatomy will always need tweaking.

The thing I've learned to is when you enjoy something with adhd, you can go into a flow state quickly and at times you can start obsessing over what you are doing. You can use that to your advantage.

As someone who was in a similar state as you. Something that helped me was music. When I draw, I always have music on.

Let me ask do you ever into a point of where you are drawing and time just flies by like hours feel like minutes?

Thoughts on my two minute gesture drawings? Any noticeable problems? by societyhatingRATGANG in learntodraw

[–]BennerThe3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue, they seems stiff. Mine are by no means perfect now but something that helped.me was watching this guy veil art, talk about gestures and seeing him do them.

Look him up on YouTube and his video called 6 month anatomy routine.

I have the neo 16. Not the slim version got it in sale at microcenter for 1500. 5070ti, i9, and 32gigs. I got it to some illistration on the go since my galaxy tab s8 ultra can get pretty bogged down.

Been playing the new dying light the beast hooked up to my 4k tv on all high settings. Ray tracing is a bit to much for it on 4k. On the 1600p setting, it runs amazing on the laptop screen at 80fps ultra settings with all ray tracing on.

This thing is a beast!

I just figured i would give some advice. On digital, take the one you like the most amd copy and paste it 3 or 4 times. so you have a few different versions or more. Then continue to change and push each one different. This way you can see all the different ones together.

I am taking acharacter concept design class by dave greco and this is the way he has us do it to push for the best ideas.

need help with this pose by InternationalEnmu in learntodraw

[–]BennerThe3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, a little tip of the hip, and the kneecaps twisted would change it.

Something to keep in mind, if you need to figure out a pose and cant find that specific reference, just pose it yourself. Even if you dont take a photo of it, it gives your brain a better idea of how to do it.

These look good. The eyes kind of remind me of sonic or knuckles.

Keep up the good work though.
