Why are people waiting to get "good" at art before starting their personal project from the get go when the most culturally significant piece of independent fiction in the last two decades looks like this?

Andrew Hussie was a very technically accomplished artist before he started Homestuck, particularly in his inking ability. A large part of the appeal of MSPA was in seeing someone with such a dense and complex style simplify his work down while still maintaining a stylistic edge that other less seasoned artists wouldn't have.

Also, Homestuck came after maybe a solid decade of him publishing personal projects on the internet, and creating a full graphic novel that was sold in stores.

>culturally significant
Does Homestuck even have any significance outside a small demographic of the USA?

Success is far less important than creating something that is actually good
>inb4 it will never be good
Maybe not, but it can always be a little less shit

It is the only 'thing' here with a sizable following. I met a Roxy cosplayer.

idk if you're just a talentfag or you forgot what it's like to be a /beg/ but you're not appreciating just how bad /beg/s are.
Even something like Homestuck requires a high degree of skill.

Because if you have a personal project you want to do, why would you make it look like shit?

To make it exist. Learn and move on, chances are your project will be shit because you didn't think it through or you're too inexperienced to create it. If anything you can always redo it when you're better at art.

Whatever it is, it's definitely not "technically accomplished". This is /beg/ as fuck

You haven't been here long if you believe people would even bother to critique this. He's at that stage where no one would care enough to say anything.

what's the cultural significance of one punch?
homestuck -> toby -> undertale/deltarune was more of a lineage that still shocks the globe to this day.

it was so easy back then if you were good. You had to be a permabeg to fail and even then you had permabegs left and right becoming internet cultural icons. I'm stuck in 2025 where I'm competing with SOUTHEAST ASIA, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, YOUTUBE SHORTS, AND THE COMPLETE EROSION OF ATTENTION SPANS IN THE HUMAN POPULACE.

Because I'm embarrassed of my own work. I don't care if I can get popular as a beg. I don't want to have beg art. I want to be good....

The consensus among commercial artists is that it's easier than ever to get *some* work and harder than ever to *make a living*. Be content with the fact that you can at least do art part-time and wageslaving part-time.
