i literally just bought core to do this.

How is everyone doing? I've been busy feeling pretty miserable about my art, everything i seem to draw sucks and i'm struggling a bit. I hate this awkward teenage fledging not good not bad stage I'm at with my art and it's frustrating as hell.

How does everyone else cope with feelings of inadequacy? Need some tips my dudes!! D:

Ok so apparently I've gained a generous scoopful of new followers from drawing Wings of Fire fanart and if you're new i'd just like to say hello!!! 

I don't usually draw much and if i ever did i'd be drawing owls, it feels weird to actually be getting favourites and comments on my art now and i'm trying to convince myself it's a good thing because I'm really shy and cagey about sharing my artwork because I rarely like it or feel good about it.

I'm not begging for validation because it'll only come from inside me but it's super lovely and encouraging to be a part of community of dragon weirdos who are nice to each other and it's just really lovely to ingratiated into that, I'm just writing to say thank you for following me really, it's super good for my confidence and I love drawing and making art a lot more and it's helping me confront a lot of my fears i've held close to my chest for years. 

thank you new peeps, hello, and st r a p  u r s e l v e s   i n   f o r   t h e   w i l d   r i d e  ! Huggle!

GUYS ive figured out why my art looks so amateur and i can't believe i haven't noticed it til now

basically i keep using thick ass lines to hide the fact I'm so vague with sketching so there's a small margin for error, when ya lines are so fat.
It prevents the colours from being dominant because of this big ass ugly chunky lines stealing the show,,

I know this sounds pretentious but i will do some tests and update this journal later to prove my point. I'm excited!! :D

i know i don't write these often or without anything to talk about
I'm just firmly in the mindset that i have to keep moving, i have to keep making shit, not because i want to but because i feel scared that i'll never make it. I create a lot of things because i know I have to, i do enjoy it but my biggest motivator is not being good enough or ever 'making it' so like. i cant stop. I'm focusing on 3D at the moment because drawing annoys me and 3D is my main jam anyway.

dont even know what my point is, my point is i'm improving slowly, with good habits and at a steady, consistent pace. Maybe not in the most healthy manner for best reasons but it literally doesn't matter, all i know is that im hungry enough to get amazing at a craft one day. hoyl shit
