>I want to create, to make comic
maybe just draw the fucking comic then

You don’t want to make a comic, you just like the idea.

if you wanted it bad enough, you'd be compelled to skip meals over it
see a shrink about your risk avoidance if it's actually a problem. the actual problem is that you're probably scared of looking like an idiot for making things, which you either need to get over or accept that your desire for acceptance will hold you back in anything in life, not just art.

I'm a lot older than OP and have a similar problem. I actually have very well-developed drawing skills (some atelier training for observational drawing, and many years self-taught at drawing from imagination). I enjoy drawing; in fact, I never feel more content than I do while drawing (reading old books about drawing is a close second). The "problem" is that when I draw I lose track of time and hours pass very quickly. This, coupled with the fact that I have a family, kids and full time work obligations has made me reluctant to pick up a pencil. My feeling is, why bother if I'm only going to be interrupted and have to stop, and lose my train of thought? I miss being a kid and spending the whole day on creative stuff without a care in the world.

Pretty much the same things for me, but I always picked up the pencil everyday. Aaaaand that is the only difference, as I am a permabeg...

He’s a writer not an artist

>>7936739
how proactive and productive are you in general?

>>7936739
Your problem isn't that you suck at art, it's that you're mentally ill and filled to the brim with inhibitions from warped expectations. Don't even fucking think about "practicing" for the foreseeable future. Do nothing but quick doodles, actively avoid drawing the same thing twice, look up references of what you're drawing on a case by case basis (don't seek out subjects to "study" (mindlessly copy), you never will and it will give you nothing). Accept that none of it will live up to your ideals. Give it a half a year to a year and I swear that you will have changed completely as an artist.

It won't teach you how to make comics though, they live 90% by screenwriting principles.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing begs fail. Thanks for brightening my day, ma'am

Just because he doesn't meet your le epic standards doesn't mean he's not an artist. If he was just an author, then he'd just write scripts for Murata.

be a drug mule, loser.

I just draw while I wait on Claude code to do my work for me.
