I wish I could NEET too. Though i do have some experience with it but it was awful.
I was NEET for almost 3 years, not by necessarily by choice, mostly because of my own passive behaviour and not knowing where to go in life after repeatedly failing any attempt at finishing any education after middle school.
I didn't do anything productive, I was constantly worried about my unsustainable situation and the pressure to "fix" my life was around every waking moment.

Only after getting employed did I pick up drawing seriously but I'd love to go back to NEETlife if I could afford it and didn't have to worry about finances at all.

who cares? why do you look so much into it?

>> No.3549661

>>3549623

People look for any reason to ground someone down like trash to make them look like less trash in comparison.

That's why /ic/ loves that kangaroo. Despite everything Proko's made for himself and despite him being a teacher, they need /something/ to feel less bad about their lack of skill.

>> No.3549743

>>3549623
Just taking a piss at him, nothing much.
We can all see that he is more accomplished as an artist compared to anyone here, that's why it's so fun to see that even someone like him can have an off-day and produce something that a noob like me and all the /beg/inners can surpass.
It doesn't mean much, in the end, he can live of his art and I can't.

It's really obvious if you aren't a moron.

Proko's a fine artist that pretty much only draws people, when will he ever need to place a kangaroo in his art? Besides, that wasn't even a kangaroo, he was trying to invent some creature or something, the "kangaroo" is something /ic/ made up.

> human Xerox machine > beg

What's this hate against proko?
I understand the criticism but he's a good established teacher.

He' releases a bunch of free resources for artists.

It says a lot to the quality of his work when he fucks up once with a kangaroo On stream.

And all these beg tier artists are like " WOw he couldn't do a quick doodle of a kangaroo once what a fucking fraud"


I hate to say it but art Isn't about the process.
Nor is it about what tools you use.
It isn't about how long you take.
It is about the final "product", and proko can deliver on that.

By " product " i also mean finished pieces.

Didn’t learn much from most of their advice desu. Most didn’t even really answer the question properly. Peter Han, Modern Day James and one or two other guys had decent advice about learning the basics and not going into details too early, etc but the rest of them just gave vague platitudes about believing in yourself and being true to yourself, etc. Its okay advice but I don’t think any /beg/ is gonna become a pro simply by being true to themselves, believing in themselves and drawing what they want. I was hoping for more practical and applicable advice desu.

I think most people who shit on Proko here actually like him, and just like to shitpost the kangaroo thing because it is kind of funny. There might also be some self loathing or jealousy involved, because Proko does all the things /ic/ loves to talk about (anatomy studies, master studies, life drawing, "Loomis") but has actually turned it into good art and some degree of fame

It meant being too autistic to function properly, getting help and learning programming on my own why a social worker hooked me up with a small IT company that was willing to open up to someone with little experience in both the business and all fields of life.
Basically a lot of luck but also a lot of effort on my part.
Seek help if you can't figure it out on your own.
