judging by the ridiculously small snippet of his artistic output, it seems like he's getting comfortable with his tools and he found a formula for doing something he enjoys
it seems like he just wants to make dumb os tans or whatever. and weird fetish shit. poor guy's autistic as fuck. do you have that excuse?
it reminds me of those pixel artists who start out by recoloring mega man sprites, then adding different clothes, different hair, etc. and then, one day, they have a good handle on the whole process and branch out from there
so yeah, just draw

6 months is a massive amount of time for learning any skill. The problem is when people don't know how to learn.

6 months of 3 hours a day practice will make you near fluent in any language, or make you decent enough at 3D for a junior position. If it's a full time study of 6-8 hours per day, you can become masterful at anything really.

Learning correctly is a skill in and of itself, like you said. It’s a reflection of intelligence and dedication. Someone who has difficulty learning a skill will have problems learning how to learn, it’s the same thing.

Still, going to the gym for 6 months and still being absolute trash is better than going to the gym for a week and giving up. If you can put in time and effort over months and months you’re probably fine, it *should* click at some point and learning gets easier from there. The problem is when people say they want to be this or that and stop a month in. Those people don’t improve and never get anywhere.

Maybe it’s just the sunk cost fallacy but really as long as you put enough time into something it should turn out ok at some point.

Sitting down and trying is a skill that is quite rare desu. Problem is art is highly abstract, so it's kinda hard to navigate learning this.

draw what you want to draw; then take a look at what you need to improve on and improve that. If you can't do that on your own, then you might need a teacher.

The trouble is the learning process is too abstract for you, you don't know what to do. And you didn't have the faculties to look up proven methods even though it would've taken you 2 hours of research.

That's useful to know. the other day I saw some kid trying to use AI to discuss with me. And I know they were using AI because if you use ad hominem the AI tells you to stop replying. is the quickest and easy way to know if someone is using AI to talk to you.

Normally I don't mind Basedjacks and their dementia, at least they know to not take places too seriously and want to troll, but they should get together and kick the resident troll from /ic/ and replace him for a new one, because god damn this is fucking terrible at this. People can tell he is trolling 5 posts in and no gets angry outside him talking to himself. Just give them a bad name, you know?

Draw a Box guy tells you in lesson 0 that <50% of your time should be dedicated to practice, and the rest should be actually drawing.
What you're doing is like chugging preworkout shake and telling yourself you'll try doing a pullup one of these days, and just going on like that for years

Do you like some anime girl or your dog or something? Go draw that. As in sketch > lines > colors > shading, a whole completed piece.
That's the only kind of drawing that actually matters.
Like all that math shit or whatever you "learned" in school and have forgotten by now because you never used it, you'll never crystalize all these drawing books and shit you've learned unless you put it into practice.

I'm serious, go make a completed piece of something that you like and want to draw. It might suck at the end or whatever but the process of making a new thing using what you know is the most important kind of learning. You'll figure out which aspects of drawing you aren't so good at and try a different approach the next time. You'll learn much faster that way.

Pretty much as >>7777318 says
Try to complete a project or piece from start to end to the extent of what your current knowledge gets you. Then you try a few exercises or watch what other artists are doing, try them out and see if it fits with what you're doing or if it ended up with different results

I like watching Saito Naoki's "Art Correction" series because half of the time it's finding out methods I've tried before whether it gets the result that I expected, or is done in a different way and gets different results. And it's just relaxing to watch.

What you've been drawing this whole time is supposed to supplement your figure drawing, or anything else for that matter you're not supposed to just draw circles ovals and squares for the sake of them you're supposed to learn how to use spheres, box forms, and cylindrical forms onto real world forms like figures and its environment.

But if you can't take a step back and evaluate the result that you get from trying X or Y or Z, then I'm sorry maybe you should just do something else.
