Well, whatever you do, don't aim to be perfect. It's possibly the worst trap you could ever fall into. It's hell. Set a standard and see how you close you can get. And when you can't get any closer, call it "good enough" and finish the fucking project. If you can do that much, no matter how long it takes you, you'll be on…
Reading this post is like looking in a mirror...I'm not diagnosed with anything, but years of struggling with even "basic" aspects of life made me think that, yes, maybe I should've gone to a doctor. Alas, I can't afford it either (and even if I could, I still wouldn't be able to make myself go).That said, I'm just a…
"Does it matter if I draw digitally or it's better with pencil and paper?" IMHO you'll progress about 10x faster with paper, as digital is nowehere near as accurate and responsive. And you can always have a tiny dollar store sketchbook/notebook on you, as opposed to having to carry an absurdly expensive and fragile digital…

@pior Apologies, it seems only I could see it since I was logged in... Here it is: https://imgur.com/gallery/succubus-Tl1QKzkIt's not that I don't think I am good, I know that I am, it's just when it comes to working there are times I fully want to go modeling, and some days I am not in the mood, at all. The strange thing…
Another endorsement for the writing things down. I create lists of things that have to be done in the day, that would be nice if they get done but the world won't end if they don't, then cross one by one. I do the same with projects: It's just series of small tasks I work through. My writing setup it far from fancy, a pen…
UPDATE: I will try to cut down on YouTube videos while I work, just music. UPDATE 2 Here's what my third hand looks like: https://imgur.com/gallery/hand-upgrade-R54gJUk It's not done yet but this is where I am with my first VRChat avatar. Here's a few screenshots: https://imgur.com/gallery/succubus-Tl1QKzk (contains…
Personally I write down a checklist in the morning or the night before. For example, if I'm studying I would write down milestones or specifically what I need to study. As well as chores and other non-art stuff. Whenever I'm working on my art I do it in silence first so I know what I'm trying to do. I only put on…
Inability to focus due to frustration followed by anxiety and impulsive decisions making you fall in a work stress related pit and often followed by sleep deprivation that on its own sends you into self repeating spiral for weeks, even months. A mix of self confidence lost and despair making you doubt everything.…
Here's what the hand looks like now: https://imgur.com/gallery/hand-upgrade-R54gJUk I think I did a good job. I am satisfied when it comes to my perfectionism brain!
