just had a huge mental breakdown about this, thank you so much for this video

damn what you could do 7 years ago i wish i could do now =S

4:15 No, I have no choice but to compare to better artists because I never actually drew when I was a child to my late teens until I became a young adult, unfortunately the regret and the depression doesn't go away. AHAHAHA there's no old me... just regret seeing young people actually trying to draw something when I didn't in the first place.

You've been quiet on the KZbin front. Glad your back.

i feel like im torturing myself by learning both drawing and programming 😭 after trying and failing to make games for >5 years i finally made my first game thats kind of enjoyable, but i remember the creativity droughts and the self loathing because my code would always get really messy and unusable. but after trying and picking up knowledge while making stuff, the code is so much neater and its so much easier to add new things. its still bad compared to bigger games, but im happy with where it is and all of my improvement is centered around my own games and enjoyment. im having those exact same problems now that im picking back up art and im being so impatient; i want to draw my favourite characters doing stuff but the proportions are way off and the lines start getting messy and unreadable. but im still going to try and enjoy the drawings because they're still concepts that i made real, even if they're bad

Lately my art has sucked recently. For some reason ever since I bought this art app, it’s been horrible. I go back to the other art app and it’s still bad. I don’t know what happened, but my art still sucks.

12:37 seeking it from a friend is useless because there always "ohh it looks so good", its the rare cases where i actually want them to be honest

WOAH- this video helped even when you were just explaining, at 2:02 the character you drew with the example actually helped, I ended up creating my own character by roughly trying to resketch what you did, it has given me a new idea on drawing and i'm really happy!!! (Pshh I wasnt crying before watching this whattt)

This girl kicked me from her patreon and discord cause I called her beautiful. YOU DONT HAVE TO HATE YOURSELF ASTRI we will do that for you

I had cried (I’m dramatic I know..) for a few minutes, because I had worked on this art for my whole day, I barley took breaks, I wanted it too be PERFECT. But I then saw my friend’s art when she came over, it looked AMAZING.. Later I wrote bad and scribbled on the art, I’m dramatic but some people may get it… Thx for reading this far. :-/

what if i have more expierience and ur still worser?

Do you visualise what you draw?

Imagine you are making an art with all your passion but when you decide to colour or add something it ruins or when you take a photo to post it looks like nothing but crap....how devastated and demotivating it feels like

You're art sucks not mine

We miss you Astri!!! <3 Hope you are well! <3

I was at my lowest low when I watch this video I hated my art something wasn't all right there was a mistake everything was going wrong until I learned art is like skating you have to fall and get back up again to learn that's the only way you're going to get better😊

No u suck

Very wise advice. Sometimes I need this reminder.

Thank you for this video <3

Me: Has been drawing for 7 years My hand: What is a circle ?

Gorgeous ❤

so cool!

Underrated!!

Missing your KZbin videos Astri ;-;

Gorgeous as always

I used to spend a few hours drawing, after finishing it was.... ok, but now I can't even do really basic stuff, like, really basic, it just don't work anymore, with is happening with me

I needed this video so bad. I just finished a piece that took days only to look back and hate it. But I’m so motivated now to keep learning!!

Thank you, I was just telling myself the same thing but its nice to hear it from someone else That uncomfortable feeling when my ability is being challenged means I'm actually getting better !

Thank you so much for this video and art is a work in progress we are a work in progress, our art isn’t perfect it takes time to make it better. ❤

I really want to improve but I can’t even explain it, I feel like it’s really hard to start improving like studying fundamentals like shapes, and I’m so frustrated.

Literally just make good art, it's not that hard.

I hate that my art skills have atrophied since college, my hands just dont have the muscle memory anymore

Sometimes when i draw a full canvas referencing an anime, and finish all the details, i feel like I cheated, I know i went though the box process, and figure drawing, but i feel like I just looked and copied another persons answer on a test, because I think everyone else can just look and draw something from reference like I do.

wow i needed this

Damn, I’m never making my web series then.

6:21 - 6:25 "Your art is going to suck for a while..." At this moment I was just sitting with a good old hollow smile. 🙂

" *This HAS to inspire artists. Try not to go too fast because you will not know what you will do and your art is gonna look terrible. So i'd advise you fellow artists to go slow while sketching. That way it'll be easier to draw things digitally, and realistically* ." - TysontheWolf Quotes 2024.

My art sucks....but i love it how it is

I agree my art looks like crap and it's aight but I was too arrogant to know it and I was in that phase where I was unhappy doing what I want and this video was a wake up call for me to know it is what it was in a good way

Brilliant video, only problem is now I feel bad because I just watched someone drawing better than me using their weaker hand🥺

Just wanna say thank u. I feel better now.

I am drawing dor 4 months now, and I can see my improvemnt alreasy and I like some of my drawings a lot. Now, I don't know if I am good, or delusional

How i draw Gun- i mean very fun toys?

Ik this was made 4 years ago but I really needed to see this video. I’m so glad I watched it. This made me more aware that I’m not as good as I think lol. Thank you for this :D

Sooo overall it’s impossible to be better at stuff like art ?

i am loosing motivation again

Love the video, makes me want to start drawing and I don't even draw😂

my problem is that everything i create looks so horrible that i can't find the motivation to draw anymore. i want to enjoy making things and drawing but every time i do it makes me feel horrible. no matter how much i try i cant find the motivation to improve :C

Thank you i really needed to heard this
