for who interested in commissioning me, please add me on the discord "cinko_draw" and leave a message to my X. (you can still use X to message me, but it's kinda buggy) commission info: docs.google.com/document/d/1…

I saw this post and have two points where I disagree. "practicing more" is not useless advice. it took me over ten years of learning and practicing before I finally developed drawing skills I felt were presentable. what stood out most was that before I became a full-time artist taking commissions, my progress was actually quite limited. but once I turned it into my job and started drawing at least six to eight hours a day, I noticed I improved much faster. my early works also got very little attention. if you look through my old pixiv posts, you’ll see very little likes or comments. but if I had gotten discouraged by that, my life probably would have stayed that way. whenever I felt like I had no talent or that I couldn’t compare to others, I would tell myself that as long as I kept going, I would eventually succeed—or that without drawing, I would have nothing left. second, if someone messages me just to ask me to “teach them how to draw,” I don’t really think they’ll succeed. learning to draw involves a lot of gathering your own resources, if you have to ask someone even how to get started, instead of finding a book or watching a video, I think the path ahead will be pretty rough. but that doesn’t mean I think you should never ask for help. if you have a very specific question, I think it’s fine to ask someone.
