Yes, somewhat. I dominate an wide range of styles. and even if my range is absurd is not absolute. "Cartoon" style and what it truly defines can mean so much that it probably gets on thousands. I can do a few, but I would struggle something more classic like looneytunes or something art decó inspired like the early 2000's. I can do it, but is not natural.

I think that's is part of the beauty of it. anime and mangas have a certain appeal to it aesthetically and realistic works have a strong sense of impressive for the amount of skill necessary, the strong suit of cartoons is the breath and wide range of personality you can achieve, is what draws me to the aesthetic itself. Is also what limits me, because when see something good I will try to learn and copy from it, and given the absurd range cartoons can have I always feel like I'm not good enough.

Indeed it's mostly a messaging app but you can create public groups where basically people can subscribe and they see all the messages you send. Make them mostly drawings and you've basically got a blog. Also you can rorward other people message's drawings to your page

I agree, getting positive comments and feedback is nice, but the kind of attention I look for is engagement. I want people to play along with me, and I haven't been successful on that.

Other than that, I keep the idea that I'm drawing for me, in the sense of giving life to my ideas, and seeing them come to fruition gives me a sense of fulfillment. The joy of making art, something I didn't think I could experience. And I'm using this time to hone my skills to one day realize my pet project.

I just wish I didn't take +12 hours to get a piece done.

At that rate you may as well quit life if you're gonna be so easily defeated by something not having a lasting effect on the world. Do something because you enjoy it and want to, not to try to shape a world or public that will move like wind around your body anyhow.

Actually it's kind of the opposite. I never thought I was going to have a lasting impact on the world, what depresses me is that if anything gets too popular it just becomes propaganda used by random social media users to push an agenda.

Well then just enjoy your small fandom while you have it. And if it gets so big that it gets coopted by the retards then at least you'll have a nice fat paycheck to do whatever you want with creatively. And the comic rights, if you weren't retarded and gave them total control over your creation.

Also, in regard to fandom, (which is the main point of the post I suppose) you shouldn't let that bother you either because it is simply impossible to control. Internet factions (most likely leftists) will coopt anything but they will refuse to support you if they know you are against them, granted they can't oust you from your own IP. (See Harry Potter and other such examples)

So just make your creation utterly repulsive to them in some philosophical manner and they should be out. Or you can cultivate an extremely degenerate fandom like the loud house and then no one's gonna touch you with a ten foot pole.

I really wanted to, was getting shaking from not eating and I had to stop. This is why I finish art in one seating. Sucks since I liked the sketch

if you liked the sketch you could start over from there if that sounds easier. don't give in to sunk cost fallacy

it's not good idea, you also need to rest, when your eyes are rested, you can then see your art and the mistakes in it in a new way, which can be more easily corrected in the early stages than in the later ones.
Go eat and give at least 15 min to think about anything else.

In hindsight I should've kept at it for fun and actually learned how to draw properly. At least a tiny bit. I'm nearly 40 and draw worse than Chris Chan if I try.

Oh hey blackarmsfag. Really enjoy your fat and cute Jacks. Glad to see you also hang round /co/.

I agree with that cartoons are probably the genre with the most personality, especially given how simple it is. There's a little scientific research into this actually with lines and symbols matching how our minds interpret real objects. So the personality is the breadth comes from how it more directly interacts with our brain, maybe a little like a drug lol. It may be that we like it because it's closer to what we want to see instead of what's real, exaggerated silhouettes and forced strong shapes being examples.

Art at it's core is self indulgence. We have been taught that self indulgence is inherently a bad thing, but in reality YOUR self-indulgence is also OTHER people's self-indulgence. When you make art that resonates with yourself, it will also resonate with others like you. The more self-indulgent and "individual" your art is, the more likely it will be a rare resonance with others that have had that need unfulfilled. Art is a human resource we currently have an abundance of, but it is still a vitally necessary NEED. Worst case scenario, we give total control of that need over to companies.
