>>4952012Hear me out. It's a crazy idea. Totally out there. Are you ready? Maybe... Are you really ready?. Maybe All those /int/ artists, All those advanced and professional artists, Those guys? Who 99% of them spent their youth drawing anime and cartoon people for 2000 hours before ever considering taking art study seriously... Maybe this low stakes learning period they ALMOST ALL HAVE IN COMMON of doodling low effort drawings actually is a cornerstone and tremendous boon to one's artistic development overall?
It's a radical idea. Perish the thought! a beginner artist doing anything but grinding bargue plates and loomis heads and perspetive and gesture study. I know, its heresy. Utterly depraved. Even evil perhaps? But. maybe because, you know, 99% of /int/ and above level artists on /ic/ litrally have their old, early to mid-2010 dA's full of crude anime fan art drawings from their youth.. Maaaaaaybe there's some credence to this idea I'm tossing out here.
