Do you think dedicated artists ever come here?
Do you think this place is just kids drawing high school level manga girls in their school books and tablets?
Do you think if a dedicated artist came here they would be pout off to see this place is just a bunch of kids posting their manga doodles?

Just go to the drawthreads and beginner drawthreads and you'll see your answer.
Maybe you should lurk more instead of being such a condescending little shit. You'd find your answer without having to make a retarded thread like this.
Let's look at the reality of things here.
Go into the drawthread, beginner thread, alt art thread, las, porn thread, sketchbook thread and study threads.
It's clear that the average skill /ic/ isn't really that great.
However there are a small handful of people here that are pretty good but the nature of /ic/ makes it difficult to tell whether those people are actually giving critiques or not.
I do believe it is possible to give critique without the skills yourself just not a full critique. You can tell someone what's wrong with their art but you might not be able to tell them how to fix it but that's alright.
/ic/'s mindset towards art is very good for improvement. Anonymity allows for the most honest critique possible. Also /ic/ is in a world of good information. I would never have found all the amazing resources needed for improving like all the good books in the book threads and all the good art in the fav art threads
4chan's reputations makes it difficult to tell whether any good artists browse this board as they're never admit to it.
The fact that we're solely interested in improving our art is respectable, any good artist will see that. Although an obvious downside to this place is that everyone is very angry and bitter. There's no reason to be angry at other artists or modern art or any of that, just get on with your own lives.

If you shitpost make it entertaining.
anyone worth a shit left when they realized they made it
here's your reply
/a/ has better artists than /ic/, so does /co/. Hell, even /trash/ has more artists with a better grasp of the fundamentals than this place, and those guys only draw furshit.
This board may have the most "artists" but the reality is that they're all just a bunch of losers who did a few Loomis faces once and spent the rest of their time on /ic/ talking like they know their shit. Instead of whining on an Vietnamese sock knitting forum about how they wish they could draw, the people with skill are out there actually fucking drawing. They've hit the threshold in knowledge where they can see what this place really is and stop becoming regular posters.
