oh, i see. no i was going for stylistic rather than realistic, it's a lot easier. i have some realistic stuff ive done if you wanna see that.
I encourage any artwork people have to done to be posted in this thread.
okay, i'll just post some of the stuff ive done recently. hold on.

first time posting itt
been trying to draw everyday for awhile but i get really busy
threw this together in the last hour or so
thoughts?
im looking for technical advice if you can, i have very little natural artistic ability.
Should work on developing the skill of emulating form. Artists, especially with realism, have this method of seeing whatever it is they're trying to draw that allows them to accurately emulate it. Anyone can learn to see things this way, it's just a matter of practicing it.
A big mistake beginner artists make is that they tend to draw how they imagine something looks like instead of paying close attention to it and drawing how it actually looks.
There's really good book on this called "Drawing On The Right Side Of The Brain" by Betty Edwards. Idk it might be possible to find a .pdf of it somewhere. She manages to take some pretty bad artists and help them become rather good over a span of a couple of months (some even in a single month I believe.) just by teaching them how to observe how things look in the real world, remember it, and accurately emulate it with drawing.
so what are you saying about my drawing? that it isnt realistic enough? just curious, your advice was a little hard to gather.
I'm speaking generally about your skill level. The drawing itself isn't realistic, but I don't know whether or not you want to do realistic or stylized artwork. What I'm trying to say is that, whether or not you want to do realism or stylistic work, learning to accurately emulate form will improve your work immensely. It's one of the fundamentals of drawing.

i guess the method that has the highest efficiency ratio would be the best way and anything else i would consider lazy. haven't really thought too much about it, but you can generally infer from any situation.
[efficiency = speed + quality of work]

Life in general is pretty simple once you're ok with being alone. Having someone to share things with is excellent but it's not necessary for a happy life.
I spent years wasting time with girls I was only attracted to physically just because I didn't want to be alone. Those relationships never work out because they get stale. It's worth waiting for someone you connect with on a deeper level than just physical.
Keep a core group of friends that you see or talk to almost every day and build upon that group. There's a good five or six people that are lifelong friends of mine that I would take a bullet for, and probably another 15 or so that I hang with regularly.
The most important thing in life is to be selfish. A lot of people are scared to ask for what they want, they don't want to hurt another person's feelings or ruin what they already have. No one else is going to get what you want for you, that's up to you.
Look at your life now and take stock of what you think will make you happy. Actively pursue those things and when you have them take stock again. Eventually you'll be right where you want to be.
wow, you are the me of the future. thank you.

Not bad, dated a girl that looked like her.
I just realized you're me from high school. It's like looking through a time portal.
yeah dark hair, pale skin and depressive tendencies are my thing.
am i like u mentally or do we actually look alike or what?
Just mentally, I had long black hair and was rail thin at 6'2".
ahh, gotcha. any tips for me?
Wear tight black pants and obscure band shirts, black of course. Don't ever talk about yourself and read a lot. Again this was high school so you'll probably want to adjust as necessary.
Chicks who wear all black love a mysterious, emotionally withholding guy.
say no more
Spoiler i was actually looking for more tips for life in general... im actually somewhat competent when it comes to chicks
Dude that looks gross
thanks man
you should see me with my fishnets amd leather gloves
get a new haircut, replace the Dickie's belt with a Gucci belt, slightly sag in the skinny jeans so you don't look like a femboy, get some actual brand shoes, and put a different shirt on. that'll make you look better
id rather not dress like a nigger, thanks
Suit yourself, but don't come crying to me when you get flamed up for wearing the ugliest and strangest outfit of 1988 + 29
i get shit for it steady from my fam but luckily im actually half decent looking and charming so people irl dont really give a fuck. its actually kind of endearing, i imagine. besides, i remind older women of guys they were attracted to in high school so my milf game is unreal.

Boy this takes me back to my high school days...
good times
Very true.
Unrelated, I didn't even realize you used insta anymore.
well when my folks kicked me out i was too busy and pisses off to post anything. im in a much better place now.
i also just dont have that much stuff to post. a few drawings here or there but i feel weird posting photos of myself.
Ahhhhh right. Good point.
and yeah other than special occasions it is a bit of a weird feeling. lol
i dont understand how people just post a photo of them a day or something... it just feels a bit narcissistic to me to do that.
Yeah. Funny you mention that, I was thinking of posting a picture on insta last week bu didn't for the same reason. It felt like a narcissistic thing to do.
dw bro we'll take a photo next time we chill and we'll make sure its a good one we're all happy wit
