This board got me steered in the right direction with study and developing drawing habits and now drawing is all I do and I have improved a bunch since I started.
Before then I was a useless, depressed r9ker. Now I don't spent 90% of my time in bed and draw whenever I can.
Thanks, ic, even if I'm only still here due to internet addiction.

It kinda helped me find the definitions of the skills I need to learn but otherwise this place doesn't help much. It's showed me outside sources to get art advice but /ic/ itself has not provided me any art tips I remember

Yes. I learned about cgpeers through this shit hole before they locked it up. Its saved me hundreds of dollars and the resources have been greatly helpful to learning for me.

Yes, in the sense that it's shown me what not to do. This board is full of inefficient learning techniques and misinformation regarding career opportunities for artists.

People here helped me decide which tablet to get and steered me in the right direction when it came to starting my studies. I think when it comes to critiquing specific pieces ic can be a little less helpful but for study resources it has been a blessing for me

Yeah, it helps motivate me to draw. This is one of the few forums where people actually give critique and not tip-toe around other people's ego, which is kinda inspiring. Even if critique itself is trash.

absolutely.

/ic/ has taught me to accept harsh critics, bullies, trolls. It has revealed that I suffered from dunning kreuger. It has allowed me to engage in conversation with other artists whom shared common goals.

Idc what people say. /ic/ is comfy.

No, when I do post something people rarely respond with any advice or feedback.
I think it's because I'm above beginner but not good enough to really get much attention.
The plus side is some of the resources shared here and coming to the board simply being steeped in art motivates me to draw.

Not really, I still draw the same way I did 15 years ago, /ic/ never helps me with anything and only gives me the same generic answers instead of what i am asking, I still don't understand how humans can memorize so much images.

Humans can memorise ridiculously long chains of random characters but the average person can barely remember 8 in a row if they try to. It’s just a matter of method

It didn't do much besides that, though.

I cant say I've really received a lot of critique the few times I have posted, however I think just being here has made me aware of art fundamentals and shit thats pretty much never discussed on any other social media, at least like this.
so yeah thanks ic

My wife left me because I use /ic/. She wouldn’t let me call our baby loomis. I called her a fucking crab and told her she’s ngmi. I don’t even care she’s a fucking begshitter anyway. She kept telling me I had to go to work so I’d just hit her back with a pyw. That really makes her seethe. She just calls me a terrible dad but fuck her ive got a streak of over 300 days. She’s fucked up my life, she gave my kid 0 Asian genes. Obviously the day he was born the first thing I checked was his ligameme. Literally no ligameme, I was heartbroken. I had hoped because he was a boy it would be a high testwomb but I was wrong the little bitch does nothing but cry. He doesn’t take crit well at all. What should I do?
