@hideki this but with drawing

@Loki I guess it happens a lot to people that have creative pretensions, i guess it's just thing of keep doing things and then they will start flowing more naturally.

On the render i did of the field with the giant cogs, i had more or less the idea on my head on how i wanted it to look, but used craiyon a bit to help cement the ideas a bit more. I think used correctly these things can be artist's best tool.

@hideki @Loki > I guess it happens a lot to people that have creative pretensions
oh those are the very first to give up, people who think they're hot shit, but they ruin it for the more shy types. The real artists aren't vocal about if someone sucks, they see people at different stages and see potential, not some form of "oh, they suck, because I'm better than them

@hideki @Loki The people who mostly suffer I think are people who see masters and think "I can't do that" and give up, but a master is someone who has practiced diligently for over 10000 hours, that's like, a solid nonstop two or three years of practice, it's infeasible that a beginner will understand concepts without some form of explanation, without sleep, rest, or breaks, it would be around 1.2 years. Artists have to have the ability to be humble and yet properly self-evaluate.. Without that, their growth pales in comparison to a master, but in a personal sense, growth can happen very quickly, like with hideki here, his scenes have been improving since I first saw them, they looked somewhat professional two years ago, but now they're even better and look really good!

I think artists need to be able to see their own progress or it becomes tiresome

@coyote @Loki wow thanks bro And yeah what you say it's very true, you oughta keep digging and putting effort on every piece you make, no matter how bad it could be, it's still a step towards mastery, because knowledge is not gonna filter through air!

Also saw one artist on twitter answering the question "how do i learn to draw hands?" with: "keep drawing more hands"... some people were really mad (out of confusion because there was not a clearer response and straightforward advice i guess) but it's just that simple in the end.
