added comment inI am from this day forth done with art. IT IS a talent and can not be learned.
i would like to say i am sry for my behavior. This post is kinda childish and just wrong. I am a very negative person and constantly clank down on myself and tbh i dont want to give upp but i am just frustrated with my lack of growth.
I know i am not the only one that feels this way. And its tough for everyone not just me.
I will not make this kind of post again.
I dont know if i will continue to strive for improvement.
once again i am sry for this post.
from now on. if i am to post it will be to ask for feedback.

Glad you realised this. I seen this post yesterday and nearly commented, but I couldn't articulate what I wanted to say without being crude myself, so I waited. I'm happy I didn't need to voice my opinion :)
Do continue though, maybe not right away but soon, before years go by and you realise you have lost time like I have. Been at this nearly 20 years (of bad, on and off studying) and your drawings are better than mine. Just think of how great it will be at the end and that you owe it to yourself to do this.

Art is a marathon and life is a grind. Take a short break and focus on something fun. As long as you don’t burn out and give up completely there’ll be progress, even if it doesn’t feel like it.
Hang in there and take care of yourself. I wish you the best.

I am from this day forth done with art. IT IS a talent and can not be learned.After almost two years of hard work and all i get is this. while others master art in two i cant even do a gesture that looks good after 2. This has never been about skill! This is a talent game and i am done pretending its otherwise. The only ones that say art is a skill are people with talent. But never mind i will just go and play a good game. Atleast i can be good at that. This has all been a huge wast of time and money for nothing ((examples of talent)) https://www.youtube.com/@niroxious https://www.youtube.com/@ddmarkk https://www.youtube.com/@YotsumiShiro/shorts All ever wanted was to be able to draw like this! But u can see now that it was just a dream, nothing more. ((pls dont tell me the old stupid clishay "comparison is the thief of joy")) We all know that talent is real and that its all that matters. some dreams are just never ment to be. All the perspective practise, the cubes, the cyliders, the gestures,the line practice, Faces that i have drawn. All amounted to Nothing like the people i just shared with you. That mastered all of it in two years flat. and i cant even do a gesture well after soon two years.

would love some help / critique on this face study / value study i did.Drew the same face twice and tried to shade on of them but i just cant seem to get this right. How many times should i draw this face / angle to truly understand it?
Also i just cant understand shading. The value scale helps very little because i still dont understand values.
But i would love some critique. Thx. sry bout the bad image. I use a h3 when i sketch.

I am very new to art but i want to learn and master perspective so that i can move on to more advanced stuff later on. I will have to look upp some perspective masters for study.
Btw is it okay if the images i pick are from say example a comic or a manga?
Aslong as its a persective shot and it is good right?

Yes - comics and manga are fine. If that is your direction with your art, be sure to balance it out with old influences as well. It can inspire you to new comics and manga ideas.
some more that i forgot to post.
Hi there! I am not the best artist in the world, but I've done a lot of gesture drawing work, and it seems to me that you're putting a lot of effort into getting accurate forms of the body and your gestures are suffering a little bit because of it. I would suggest doing some VERY quick timed gesture drawings, around 15 seconds, to force yourself to really focus in on the FEELING of movement in the pose. When you only have time to do a stick figure, all you are able to do is focus on the feeling!
Once you start to exaggerate what you see and forego 'accuracy', you'll really be on the way to getting some great gestures done. I also recommend reading 'FORCE' by Mike Mattesi, if you can get your hands on it. His (and his students') gesture drawings are amazing, and he does a wonderful job of explaining the thought process behind them.
Same... these look like contours first then gesture lines second. Good work though. Keep it up.
