/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

no matter what i draw it always looks unappealing af.
Im doing some fundie practices and studies like bg and objects around my house but i don't see how it helps me at all.
Also how do people line without it being all chicken af. If i use a hard brush it gets all the squiggles and nastiness even if I draw lines quickly and if i use a softer brush i have to go over it a ton to get a line that's solid enough to be notable.

thank you for any advice
