Also, the list is clearly written by a beg because the jumps between the upper tiers are insane.

I don't really fit in anywhere on that list.
I'm certainly not a beginner, btu also not a professional. I do care about quality in my work, and I also have knowledge of fundamentals. I just can't make any money with my stuff anyway.

I don't understand the complete disconnect between what this board considers /pro/ and an actual professional.
>work for large-scale industry productions
Things like the Captain Underpants movie or long-term running shows like Family Guy or Adventure Time exist.
>the only criteria for a professional is that they can make a stable career out of their art
Then art skill has little to do with it. I doubt anybody here would look at somebody being so well-connected that they could be doing performance art and making a living off of smearing Campbell's chicken on the floor in the shape of a uterus and call them a "professional," and yet that's technically what they are.

How is it called if I am the fusion of a golem and a high autist, like, I know how to draw, people have paid me 3 times for a drawing, and I kind of like drawing, but I am creatively bankrupt, I only know to do fanart and I dont know how to use the knowledge I have on something original.
Its weird, I feel I deserve a tier of my own, because Im special and unique like that [spoiler]UwU[/spoiler]

And how many images have you made since making this post?
OP at least made one finished image, even if it's a graph made with pre-existing assets. That's one image more than most on this board have made this week/month/year.

This is as bad as the power level chart about thinking that fundamentals aren't a bare minimum requirement for not being completely worthless as an artist.

Perma-/beg/ for me

I just took a screenshot of your comment. So I'm on par with OP now.
We both dont draw.

None of you draw.

Pre-beginner. I don't draw because I don't understand what I'm even supposed to be trying to mark with lines, and neither reading nor experimentation have gotten me anywhere. I can and do copy drawings, but I don't think of that as drawing, since nothing about it seems applicable to drawing from life or imagination.

>>7911114
The only difference between a beginner and a howie is that the howie is piss scared that he will become a permabeg and the beginner is willfully ignorant. People treat howies like dirt because they're scared and then go out and ask them to spend decades drawing specific fundies and wasting their passion on worthless nonsense to "git gud". Hence the howie becomes fearful of drawing what he wants at the cost of remaining bad at art or losing his passion trying to improve.

I'm a Legend in the making.

>>7911114
Pre-beg, I get spurts of drawing and I have a comic I want to get done, but I have a big vidya backlog I want to get through and a few places I need to travel to to really get the ideas of the comic stable. I pop in occasionally though to scroll and realize some mistakes I've been having (chicken scratching is not ANY breaks in a line, just making lots of lines to make one, so I was throwing out a lot of art because I couldn't make a stable twirly curve in every stroke baka)
>>
>>7911114
i'm both a high autist and a golem simultaneously. i have very good observational skills (to the detriment of my enjoyment of a lot of art) and i put a lot of effort into the art i make, but i consider it mostly inferior to what others can do, and i lack any sort of imagination (have aphantasia and a cripplingly low self-esteem for my original works, so everything i make is fan art)

novice sorcerer with terrible marketing skills in a crumbly stone tower overlooking the sea who likes to learn everything there is and draw sf and their comfort character’s world.

>>7911114
a bad hierarchy since it skips so much.
I'm basically not on there, like most people.
Strange you'd forget about non-autists who aren't professionals but also not beginners anymore.

You tried to reinvent the /beg/ tiers and you failed at it.

is that a euphemism for beg ?

I hate that im on high autist. Fuck.
>>
>>7911114
experienced, but I think the model of professional employment being the signifier for professional is a bit outdated. You can make more money freelance so most pros are actually just drawing their own shit. And more people who work for companies are actually low skilled.
>>
>>7911114
Perma-beginner, or something along those (sloppy) lines. I want to improve and create actual art, but I have no natural creativity/concept of perspectives and my linework never improves despite hours upon hours of practice.
>>
Lifelong beginner with asterisk having some taste and understanding how to make something appealing in the domains that I like. One time I schizoed out for a good year doing art as a neet 24/7 and while I got a lot better I realized I hate doing it with all my being so there's no point. No matter how proud I might feel about the end result. Truly few have the mental faculty to make it worth it for them I think, not to mention the base talent required before anything else

I level up from pre-beg, to beg, by just drawing wathever shit I see in front of me

I draw porn for a living and I don't feel represented on this "hierarchy"
Feels like what a 26 years old children think an "artist" is
In fact I don't see any of my kind (commission artist) represented here.
Fucking Leonardo Davinci was a commission artist and wouldn't fit this "hierachy"

>Fucking Leonardo Davinci was a commission artist
>commission artist
Also known as unemployed, bum, NEET, beggar, deadbeat, etc.
>>
>>7914273
There's a life beyond blue collar 9 to 5 jobs for a monthly paycheck anon
Leonardo lived that life
I'm living that life
Hundreds of other artist live that life, including movie actors and fucking umbrella sellers
I don't think the english has a word for it so I just call it what would be translated to english as "commission artist"
It alternates highly lucrative periods with downtimes, and if you are not good with money it's ok, you can stick to predictable paycheck for predictable working hours
The fact is, it's an old ooooold way of living for artists and the norm for 99% of artist's history and it's not on the lame gay ass OP pic

Experienced trying to become pro
I lucked out with my uni and got a few chud illustration professors who also read a lot of the modernist art theory which made me a lot more rounded out
