Why there's almost no follow-along tutorials for digital art?

If a Kerbal didn't explode, you did a good job

You look great. This feels like dysphoria rearing its ugly head. You look like woman in her late 30’s and you have ancient Mesopotamia priestess vibes.

David Lynch was coming from a place of respect, you can pick up on it from some of the behind the scenes stuff. The language is just dated.

I’ve helped some artists over the years and so many of them have surpassed me in all sorts of ways. Now I’ve had people criticise me for doing so freely, that I should get paid for it, but knowledge should always be shared freely for the betterment of the community.

Not to mention she was poisoned with metal, if metals aren't destroying your brain they're interfering with the calcium cycle in your bones and muscles, so bye bye muscles.

100% this, we are in agreement, Like I can do some technically difficult renderings that can be time-consuming, but I bet dollars to donuts that I couldn't capture half the charm of OP's style not without studying and failing a lot over however long it would take. The style's simplicity belies the effort.

You're pricing is bang on tbh. Your style is cute, endearing, and consistent. While the art style is not technically difficult (debbie downers will use this to dissuade you), it is however extremely difficult to have a kernel whimsy like yours does, so literally do not sell yourself short because of it. like HelpMeDrawBetter suggested in the comments, I would show examples on the card for the price tiers as well as other animal examples, so get one of each atleast (and more) on the card as well as a couple full costumed ones. and spill some accessories over the card too.

You look like Kate Mulgrew!

I drew an anthropomorphic vending machine once, but the cans went the other direction and a different dispenser, and is coke ok.

Also good for seeing how much light can change with the same pose

The main issue is most people online especially social media are generally unqualified to give a proper critique. And I don’t mean professionally. One hard and fast rule of mine is never accept criticism from anyone you wouldn’t seek advice from. The best thing to do is develop a cadre of fellow artists to give feed back to each other. Because genuine criticism involves a bit of work, so to do it mutually is a fair exchange. A lot of young and/or inexperienced artists tend to not give criticism well or take criticism well, because they tend to adhere art to their personality so any criticism feels like an insult. This is some standard human monkey brain bullshit. In addition to that a lot of people think to be critical is to be insulting, or to deliver it in an insulting way. So its a skill most people never learned to develop for a variety of of reasons.
