The one thing about not being distracted, you NEED to consume art. Everything has an input and output. You just need to be cautious with your level and balance of each. Also, I assure you this video being in the background will NOT distract me. It really called to me, struck me right in my artist soul! I've been having anatomy improvement and relearning my skills from the fundamentals on my mind, but this really stirs up all the things I've been THINKING about doing in the last months into the motivation to actually do it.

I'd say the part about having something playing the background highly depends on what you are doing and what step of your process you are. For example, when I'm in a part of the process in which I need to think, like figuring composition, panneling, poses and such, I can't have anything playing, it really disrupts my thought process, but if I'm in the inking phase, for example, that doesn't really require thinking, I had already layed all the "thinking" down by that point, so I'm capable and it's even more entertaining to have something playing in the background. Curiously something I do play in the background sometimes is Trash Taste. I totally agree with ehat you said at the end though. Don't leave stuff for after work/school otherwise you'll probably be too tired to do it.

You’re putting too much importance on the art and getting it right that you’ve made it too big of a dragon to slay and it’s paralyzing you because you don’t seriously believe you can do it and are scared of failure. It needs to be smaller steps that your body and mind knows you can actually seriously do. Right now you made this serious version of yourself who gets it all done without failure and you’re paralyzed to move because you might realize you aren’t that person yet. If I’m wrong let me know

Hey im an animator and have worked for anime like jjk and black clover. ive only started getting serious at drawing in 2020 and got my first job in 2022, when i was 16. To anyone out there that's thinking of taking this seriously and really determined to get better and make it a job, remember that fundamentals, these short term goals are not just things u tackle once and then move on, you have to constantly come back to it and further refine it. Even now, I still practice perspective and drawing boxes in space just to improve my character drawings. Try to find the fun in the little things in drawing like the little things in life Never underestimate fundamentals, but always remember to have fun in the process, or you'll never last. Don't give up, and take care!

Its nice to listen to your experience and how you handled your struggle. Just be sure to set the tone right, you are still a beginner, be aware that when you do tutorials or given your advise, people that are just starting out can not tell the difference between good and bad advise and think you are a pro cause your art looks good from their perspective. And whatever you tell them could stick with them forever, even if its totally wrong. If you want a healthy channel, dont talk from above like you know stuff for certain, its still super great if your just an artist who shares what happend during their time trying to get professional. But make sure your watcher get this.

I draw along with top body, full body, drawings but only draw the head and shoulders because the body is easier and I don't want good perspective I want perspective that is good enough (for me). I'm only drawing portraits rn. My tip to drawing humans is to pickup a pencil and do it. Art block doesn't exist if you don't allow it to exist. (Edited for 1 bit of grammar)

I've decided to spend 3 weeks with only drawing basic heads at very basic angles, and you know what...it helps me a lot, i was so depressed and lost as to what to learn first, focusing on one thing and not worrying about lacking skill in another aspects of art is definitely a good thing, the only problem is that procrastination, though it is good to take a break now and then, just as long as you keep your passion high and keep practicing, you'll see a lot of improvements, also DON'T be discouraged or saddened if your drawings end up looking like crap, i felt like this when i tried drawing hair a few days...you'll learn eventually

Good message overall. I think (hope) that everyone will reject the notion that mastery is achievable in one month (even if serious focused work is done consistently), but the valuable real message behind that generalization is that people should stop hoping to be great instantly, like you said at the beginning.

i want to start off by saying this is a seriously great video and you make a super accurate point about the benefit of narrowing ones focus when learning, rather than diffusing it across several different fundamentals. its also great to see your progress and example of the results of this in practice. i do have one slight but respectful disagreement with one thing you said that is multi-pronged: you encourage those learning to avoid doing so digitally and only practice/study traditionally, as "digital is cheating." this left a bad taste in my mouth because it sounds like snobby traditional elitism that i saw all the time early in my art journey and also has the same vibe as those that say using reference is cheating. additionally, it reminds me of those art teachers who tell students they shouldn't draw in an anime style and should only draw in a western classical or hyper realistic styles. another part of the comment that rubbed me the wrong way, and perhaps I'm misunderstanding you, but it seems like you implied that those learning working digitally can't learn from their mistakes and improve and can only do so by working traditionally. I believe someone learning can learn just as effectively by learning digitally as they could by working traditionally (unless their goal is to master working traditionally) apologies for that little gripe. I only wanted to address it up because the people that will gain the most from your video are those earlier in their art journey and such a comment will cause unnecessary doubt about their ability to learn if they want to do so working digitally. otherwise, again, this was a great, great video!

Yes but, erasing with an eraser is not instantanate nor illimited, can be messy or damage the paper and sometimes you just can get the line out completely so you are less tempted to overuse it for every single line that are not 100% perfect. The best to fight perfectionnisme and fear of failure is a good old pen. For improving pure drawing skills it is adviced to do pen/pencil & paper. But, if you REALLY want to use digital, forbide you to use ctrl+z for practice sketching ;)
