I'm not gifted enough. Is "anyone can draw well if practice a lot" true or is it a meme?

>I'm not gifted enough. Is "anyone can draw well if practice a lot" true or is it a meme?
No one is born with the ability to draw well, you improve upon it. Some do it faster, others slower.
But if you practice and, perhaps just as importantly, learn from theory and other's processes, tips & tricks, you will improve.

It's true if you aren't disabled

I'm nowhere near as good as the first image.

Wrong.

But he's right. The actual biggest hurdle to learning to draw is learning to see.

I am disabled, though.

I don't know what that mens.

Practice hard guys

It's about breaking out of symbol drawing. Where you draw what you think you see, not what's there. And also learning how to see things in a 3d space and then realise what they'd look like on a 2d one.

i was already 6 years behind when i first tried to draw properly

Shit, only 6 years? I could have done that. Guess it's too late for me now.

Just because someone can make a well drawn static image with no background doesn’t mean they’d be a good manga artist.

Just cheat guys, it's not that hard

1994 actually looks pretty neat,but after tht it just kinda tumbled down.

I gave up on all of my dreams now fuck off.

Wrong. Americans think that you can do anything if you put your mind to it, but that's wrong. Not everyone is special. Some people are just born talented, while most are not. Some people are meant to succeed while most are meant to fail. Exceptional people are born, not made.

Seen your stuff before on tumblr and twitter, you've got some good work senpai

user, do you, like, know how drawing works?

Coming close

Don't just practice, study anatomy/forshortening and all the other tricks and apply that knowledge in practice.
And yet his coloring is superb, dumb nigger

Why would I do that when I know I'll fail?
After realizing I was a talentless piece of shit I put the pencil down in high school for a good reason.
Now I live my life through Kaos

>Why didn't you practice and make your own manga?
no motivation to improve on drawing hands and eyes, eyes especially I spend way too much time on and they never come out right, so I just stopped trying
don't have friends anyway so it's not like anybody would appreciate my efforts, don't care about showing off to strangers

If you don't cheat you are a failure of an artist

People that can draw well failed more at their art than you even attempted at anything.

???
doesnt apply to drawing, fuck off

Even people missing their hands can still draw

Okay. Is that supposed to be a big "gotcha!" moment? I already admitted that in my own post.

Most professional comic/manga artists are bad (by art world standards) and clearly have no particular aptitude or predisposition for visual arts. If they did it, why couldn't you?

i'm decent at art and i live in nipland, but my ideas are literal dogshit.

Not the kind of dogshit (moe, isekai, harem) that autists like to gobble up, it's the kind of dogshit nobody cares about.

You need to be super genius with 200 iq, and with unique style.

>and with unique style.
is that why most mangas and doujins look like literal copies of one another

No, that was meant to show you that failing is a natural order of improving and if you actually want to try your hand at that you will fail and that shouldn't bring you down on it's own.
Tell us about your ideas, dont let embarassement get to you since we are anonymous.

That is bad unique style is always required.

I only draw anymore when I want to give a present to someone or cheer them up with silly art of characters they like. I'm not any good though and I don't do it enough to get better. I trace other people's shit and redraw it with different characters.

A few of those are actually better than the original.

Success is never promised. And I can never comprehend this mindset that "things must go to plan or I won't take the first step".

If you prefer to consume than create - nothing wrong with it. But if you feel your heart stir, then heck give it a try.

Because I am not Japanese so if I drew it would just be a comic?

If you don't try you won't succeed.

If you do try, sure you might waste your time and not accomplish anything but the first statement still takes precedent. Nothing is guaranteed in life.

I don't have the talent or the passion, the only thing that would motivate me is a daydream about making something that a lot of people really liked and made me famous

A mouse yokai and her summoner fight off evil spirits.

ngmi

Despite reading a bunch of sports and shonenshit manga, I lack the motivation they have. I´m stuck in an eternal loop of getting into it then deflate and give up once I feel like I´m not improving. Maybe I´ll be drawing sick h-doujins by the time I´m 80

I get stuck in the cycle of
>Want to draw something
>Know im shit
>Take the correct route to gitting gud
>Burn out after 2 weeks of exercises
>Repeat every 4 or so months.

I tried many times; every time i draw and i see how awful i am, i start feeling awful and fall down a spiral of self hate and depression.
Not being able to ever draw makes me feel awful, but not as awful as how i feel after i do it

>you will fail and that shouldn't bring you down on it's own.
Can't stop it from bringing me down, I guess. fuck it I lost my motivation to do anything so I'll just sit and decay on Yea Forums with lost dreams of a few manga.

Make it an isekai and add in a harem backing cast and you've got gold.
Maybe a moeblob artstyle too.

If I start practicing again, 2025 will be my year!

Because I suck at drawing.
