I feel like Jazza is suffering from demons we can't even imagine. He seems to be in a constant state of internal upheaval, crying, apologizing for starting a patreon. Before that he was apologizing and trying to reinvent himself because some random comment on reddit triggered him into rethinking his entire channel's direction. Then he apologizes for choosing to make things that didn't appeal audience members who left ten years ago. Combined with his constant, violent pivoting in every possible creative direction, I feel like I'm watching a rat in a cage slowly go stir crazy and eat its tail.

Funny thing is, I don't see a cage. Does Jazza even draw or animate anymore? Part of me wonders if this whole "I'm going to experience every type of creative activity" hyperactive phase he's in is actually an elaborate cope for the fact that he hit a wall with drawing and lost confidence in himself. So he's become a 'dabbler.' His energy used to be genuine, but now all I see in his eyes is desperation and confusion.

There's a niche for most skill levels above basic competence. Less skilled or average art youtubers attract absolute beginners, slow learners or other hobbyists who plateaued at average and feel a kinship with them. Parasocial shit is all about finding something to relate to, so it makes sense. These okay artists are just out of reach, making what they do appear approachable and almost within the grasp of the average audience member, so they build fan bases of ngmis and then they all drown in their overwhelming sense of inadequacy together while pretending like they're going places.

Yeah, now that I'm older and more experienced (also rewatched some her videos last night) I think the fear I felt was probably a gut reaction to her mean and arrogant way of bulldozing student work. She has a way of acting flabbergasted and offended that her beg followers are making beg mistakes and I'm not sure what it's in aid of.

Weirdly enough, I don't like the hug box way of learning anymore and actually enjoy being shat on by better artists, especially if they're just senselessly cruel and mean about it (I don't know, I think it's funny.)

Embrace the hate, embrace your self-righteous anger and petty indignation over your fate as a permabeg crab. None of us will will ever film ourselves failing at art and have the gall to put it up on the largest mainstream platform on the internet for everyone to see and judge, and you know why? Because we're better. We're better than those retarded fucks.

I know technically, he's made it but I can't look at his art and not feel like Trent is still a beg who was able to encase himself in a layer of 'pro', somehow. Maybe it's just my hatred of blizzard type art, although I kinda like the guy and his 'the dude' persona. It's not like he's giving bad advice either, but I just can't see his art and think 'PRO'.

If I wanted to and truly applied myself, I could reach and probably surpass his level (which in a way would not really be an impressive feat), I'm just voluntarily stuck in an artistic purgatory of my own device, the kind that feeds itself. But enough of me, how do you guys feel about Trent?

I am sure some /begs/ here will see this thread and will feel demotivated because their progress has also been lackluster for years, so hear me out:

All of those people would improve vastly if they would be forced to do long drawings (10h or more) from life. I don't see a lack of talent, but a lack of focused, finished long projects. The sketching is important, but that weird overthinking and this strange STEM mindset of learning and trying to rationlize everything in video format is killing them. What they need is to sit down, borrow a cast and do the best drawing of it they can do and spend around 20 hours on it. I am not even talking about the idiotic sight sizer crap, but the lack of long, careful drawings is what is holding them back. Get a skull and do several 2-4h drawings and move up to drawing a friend or family member for at least an hour. Digital is a great medium, but before its existence, it was almost impossible to not do the obvious thing: You need to try to create an illusion on paper of something you see in real life - as best as you can, over and over. They sit infront of this screen, overthink all these concepts and forget to do the obvious. You need to create an illusion. Why worry about these weird elipse exercises if you haven't even drawn a believable representation of the coffee cup right in front of you?

Is a critical failing. EmbodiedJosh especially, despite having started on paper, gets so caught up in his efforts to recall all the techniques he's seen/read about and trying to correct every single line he draws in Photoshop it's ridiculous. Much of his digital drawing time is spent spinning his wheels in the mud about what he's trying to draw instead of just fucking drawing what he sees.

I think the reality is that his type of practicing, while not inherintly bad, results in very low amount of concentrated drawing time. Doing a careful cast drawing is an easy way to get focused, productive mileage and it will get critical thought processes going when you are trying to push the drawing further than you are able to. What I am basically saying is that even though he put in a lot of energy into it, he didn't draw much at all. It's like he was lazy without being actually lazy.

The implication of this thread is that everyone has the same ceiling, learning rate or innate drawing ability, and that it is a matter of just finding the right learning path
Which is not true, just cause someone went a specific route and didn't get the results you hoped doesn't mean the route was the issue, not everyone can become a great artist, just by virtue of their genetic make up

This is why Art schools have historically always been elitist, and there is a barrier for entry just to even be considered a student, because it'd be tyranical to take money of someone who does not have an already above average drawing ability or the predisposition towards visual intelligence. Of course, selling hopes and dreams is a great business model for failed artists that later became teachers, who couldn't compete in the market against better artists or simply prefered a more comfortable life.

You could give Chris Chan a top elite education, and he would still be drawing the same autismo sonichu pics.
With higher intelligence also comes the emergence of new abilities of learning, people with a predisposition don't just copy endless boxing having faith that one magical day, a rupture will happen and suddenly they will be able to fully understand any angle of rotation and inclination, they understand it untuively just by watching a box rotate and having a few notions of how perspective vanishing points work.

The idea that technical skill is a measure of great art is a telltale sign of being a pedestrian art consumer.

He isn't bad, but there's this "concept artist" fingerprint all over his work, I don't see much love in it, same with Marc Brunet's art, which to be clear has little to do with their skill, because they obviously know what they're doing, is more that they're more clearly in the business side of art so it's all about efficiency and from what I see they latched onto that to create their style and brand.
You could expand that idea to other mediums too, but I don't know, this probably fits more into the S0VL/S0VLess category.

That's not true at all, I've worked with 80 and 70 IQ people before (That's already 20% of the population), and they'd struggle to learn very simple things most average people don't struggle with at all. (Things like reading instructions, folding correctly, personal hygiene, dressing up, how to write and structure, how to send emails.. etc).

It is not moral to lie or deceive people, it is not moral to gain money by selling hopes and dreams.

With the same amount of practice, they acquired chess skill more quickly than less intelligent players, reached a higher peak performance, and arrested decline in older age. Our research demonstrates the futility of scrutinizing the relative importance of highly intertwined factors in human development.''

IQ is not a set-in-stone genetic trait, and it has a lot to do with how a person views himself, processes information, and critical thinking/problem solving. Low IQ is a self-perpetuating virus that is often learned from your family of origin.

There's countless studies on this. Students have been placed in "gifted learners" classrooms and performed significantly better than their cohorts of similar IQ (the students were placed in a setting that was supposed to be for higher IQ students only).

None of what you said takes away from what I did, its just that confidence is also a factor, albeit a much smaller one (But extremely important for an individual).

An 80 IQ highly motivated person is better than a depressed 80 IQ person, but motivation alone won't explain the gap of achievement, wealth and health that occurs between 80 and 130 IQ.

No one here has said you should quit art if you aren't top 1%er in IQ, you are actually projecting that onto others. (I know trolls do that to demoralize people tho).

That's what I'm saying anon. Low IQ, etc. (even the AI discussion) all share in the aspect of reducing your own sense of agency. Having a lessened sense of self-efficacy has been shown to have a tremendous effect on someone's long-term success in life.

The gap between all those things from 80 to 130 is a result of life choices made by people, many of which are based on a sense of self-efficacy or lack thereof.

No one else can be confident for you. What I'm saying is fuck everyone else and go for it. That's everything in life: school, business, creative endeavors. Fuck everyone else and everything else. If you genuinely think you can do something, go for it and put your all into it.

This guy acts as if practice by itself would make someone improve, but he's not consciously correcting over it, and you'd think having a teacher over his shoulder would help, but no, they just take their advice as gospel and do nothing else, the worst you can do for people like this is introducing them to blending modes, they will rape overlay and multiply and never get to learn how light works, and if you tell them to do that they'll be stuck rendering cubes and spheres and nothing else. He's doing this shit because that's what he thinks a good artist would do, and that's about it, so even the advice he preaches about flies over his head, that lack of awareness is dangerous, and he has been galvanizing bad habits without knowing it, this can obviously happen even to good artists (especially the ones that get famous), but he's an extreme example of having a blind spot.

Don't apply loomis to anime

Don't assume another artist is using the same "rules" you learned to guide their drawing, and then use that false assumption to reinforce those rules in your study of their work.
Don't sit there and fiddle with circles and shit off to the side for 20 minutes
Don't needle small areas of the drawing
Don't say to yourself "wow we got so far," when you've drawn a circle and 4 lines
Don't neglect pupil placement and make your characters look like they are staring at nothing
Don't not draw hands if your reference has hands in the composition
Don't "study" something by tracing it, especially if it's another drawing.
Don't be self deprecating
Don't be scared of making art
Don't be a needy desperate faggot looking for someone to handhold you the whole way through the art journey
Don't talk like this guy, ever. In front of anyone or alone... EVER

Finally, don't get off on being """self taught."""" No one is self taught. if you ever once got advice that helped you, you aren't self taught.

I like this analogy. Especially because those same streamers playing the "wrong" games still won't be successful.
This guy could definitely be a successful youtuber, and I agree he doesn't have to be actually good at drawing.
But his ideas for videos aren't working and he needs to drop the goal of being a great artist and just aim for content.

Maybe I'm wrong since I'm not one, but his editing seems REALLY good for that zoomer style to keep people engaged along with a humble and self deprecating attitude that is more rare for content creators.
And he probably doesn't even realize it because he's unsuccessful overall and people would mostly comment about the art and subject matter of the videos.

>sperging out over basic art without even being able to articulate what's wrong
He's right though, it's funny a normie can spot bad design decisions by a skilled artist and at least indicate problem areas.

The composition reads really badly and there isn't enough contrast. E.g. what the fuck is that gargoyle doing? At first read it's confusing, at second read it might be sitting on her shoulder, at third read it looks like it's coming after her but then it should be posed more like it's descending rather than floating behind to protect her - okay, then if it is guarding her why is it watching the back of her head?

Not to mention it doesn't pop against the background, if it's as close to her as it appears it should have at least some of the same, warm rim-lighting on the closest wing (which would group it with the woman, who the gargoyle may be protecting).

If we really want to push the compositional autism, there's also too much going on in the triangle between the wolves and the gargoyle. Not to mention, the focal points being the three faces, the gargoyle's is way too close to the woman.

look at those failures, they chose to make bunch of useless video about their permabegness, spend more time on adobe premiere instead of actually draw and study.
take notes /ic/, learn from these failure youtubers mistake. none of them were actually making a progress while progress, no matter how small it is, are important. but look at these permabeg youtubers, they kept doing the same mistake over and over again, they have weak mentality in doing something that is fun (art) and never actually learn anything about it, and the worst of it all, they never finished any of their drawing.
Dont be like those people. Keep drawing, even if its look like a kindergarten crayon type of drawing, keep doing it. but dont be too harsh to yourself. know when to take a rest and when to push yourself, after all, drawing is a fun activity and should be treated as your hobby, but then again, dont forget about making a progress and learn from your mistake and be grateful when someone criticize your works.

You need someone to tell you "this is bad, and this is the correct, easiest way to do this thing"
