If you see this post, you have been blessed with "The smile of Loomis"
>All art gains exp for the next 25 mins are doubled.

However, if this buff runs out without you drawing anything, you are cursed with "The anger of Loomis"
>All art gains are for the next 25 mins are halved.

Can someone make an actual video game that only lets you play when you submit artwork to a forum or something? People could tag to remove it if you sent bullshit and if it were removed, you'd get set back in the game, but if you spent time on a drawing you would get some powerups in the game.

It'd be a motivational game to encourage not only working on your art, but also to help to remember to break too (no sense working til your hand is cramped because one day it's gonna cramp faster. treat your bodies right)

I'm obviously just daydreaming but it'd be cool if something like that could be made based off this.

if it's the bully from my high school I don't think, not like he knows how to draw and what to point out I did bad, he would just yell about how much of a looser I am for wasting my time drawing, but if it's kjg actually pointing out my mistakes I would be in heaben

It's time to git gud, /ic/.
>>
bros i want to develop a style in the lines of manga/comic books that sort of thing, i do understand that to do the faggy chink i have to do the skinless man. But im finding the whole thing really difficult, and im afraid im quite stupid and quite incapable of learning the intricacies of anatomy and skeletal structure. would it be okay for me to find a better way? like learning everything as shapes rather than complicated stuff?
>>
I'm looking to be better, I draw everyday for a minimum of 4 hours and its 6-10 most of my days, counting the few in between breaks I have.
I wanted to be a hobbyfag at first, but now fuck it. I'm going to try to take art as a job and be serious.
I didn't sign up for college since my graduation so I guess I'm NEET (?)

so how do I increase my hours and get better concentration? Is it possible?
>>
>>2591025
If you need motivation to draw, then you're just forcing yourself in doing something you don't actually enjoy. find something else to do because art is not your thing.
Its hard to accept, but that's just how it is.

You don't really need to memorize the musculature and the skeleton thoroughly. You only need the basic gist of it. What you need to know is how the muscles look in 3d and how they are connected. I recommend this book

>>2599638
Well aside from being healthy by exercising, having enough sleep and eating right, there's really not much you can do to better concentrate, unless you take some sort of meds. Just sit down and force your brain through it. I'd say break your hours into 25 min drawing sessions followed by 5 min rest period. And don't be so rigid about learning. Spend some time drawing what you want to draw. Doing it lifelessly like a robot is a quick way to burn out. Why not have some fun along the way.

>>2599651
will this book teach me about muscles as basic forms or such?

Brahs, i dont have anywhere else to psot this, but even tho i'm not bad i constantly feel im not gonna make and that im running out of time (25yrs old and started from zero again just to improve my fundies) and even if im dying to draw and practice i keep wasting time with vidya or 4chan and whtever

anyone else feels like this? any tips? words or anything actually
>>
>>2602395
>vidya
Stop that shit nigga. Delete all vidya in your pc. Sell your console and games. Go cold turkey. Ask yourself, is the short term pleasure from vidya worth the potential long term happiness you get from honing your passion?

>4chan
https://getcoldturkey.com/
Same thing. Go cold turkey. Though I'd argue that you should leave /ic/ free to go.

Whenever I'm down about, I listen to hype music while I work like Eye of the Tiger. It's cheesy yeah but it works. Also it doesn't hurt to watch motivational vids. Go to ctrlpaint.com and scroll down at the bottom. There's lots of good motivational advice there.

Good luck mane. I hope it works
