@Hachi: Medibang i feel is better for sketching but it has no texture brushes.
Krita has tons of texture brushes but for me personally it's hard to see the brush
so i can't usually find where it's drawing.
The drawing tablet I use is a huion brand and it does work very well.
In the past I've had a wacom but wacom can be rather expensive.
So i went a more affordable budget type of tablet.
Breaking the rules and even learning them all is hard because the rules are fundamentals like anatomy/proportions, values, color theory, etc.
and I've barely cracked down on learning them all and doing studies on each one. So for me i feel i can't break them until I've at least dabbled
into each fundamental rule at least once. Right now my focus for sure is anatomy/proportions, color[mostly blending though] and value.
I am actually working on a goal of mine. my goal is overkill though. i am making sure i can draw maybe 1000 of each study each month. probably overkill but it'll go towards mileage and memory muscle.
I'm easily burnt out, but its actually to draw when you are not inspired. so I am trying to teach myself that.
Depression of course has other plans all the time, but i feel pushing through my struggles will help me in the long wrong.
my goal for 2019 is just to study and make progress.
i'm honestly someone who can't give anyone art unless it's PERFECT.
though i also doubt anyone would want my art sometimes. :vanora_xd:

hurting my brain stressing out over my art is why i've started doing "i don't care how it turns out" doodles. 
@Hachi: hmm, this is actually kind of hard, because I like most of them for one thing or other. xD

@Shadami: HAHA tbh I don't know what im doing either
I just make things up as I go
what are noses????
@Apollo Im Burning: that's a lot of characters! haha I think that's just about everyone that I recognize
you'll have to pry 3/4s view from the left out of my cold dead hands

@MoodyBats: ahhh I really want to download some custom brushes... People make a ton of them for Photoshop but my version is so old it doesn't support the new format haha
wacom can be very pricey! I went for the simplest, most beginner tablet in their line tho, so I only spent ~$60. It gets the job done for me so I have no complaints. I'll probably use this thing until it dies completely haha
That's... a very lofty goal! Honestly sounds like a lot to be doing each day. Just make sure to take some breaks every now and again. It's also easy to damage your hand/wrist from drawing too much.
hhh yeah I can't draw at all when uninspired. I went through some time in my life where I was forced to draw or make graphics under strict deadlines and I can't do it anymore. It really made me hate art. I'm admittedly a lot happier with it now that it's just my side hobby.
That's just me tho. Different people work different ways and if that's what helps you then go for it!
AHAHAH well ya see the crap I'm giving out in this thread tbh
I used to be a perfectionist about my art too. But I've realized that nothing will ever be absolutely perfect so I just let it go.
I can tell you from the perspective of a thirsty art collector that if someone wants your art, they mostly likely really want your art. there's plenty of other artists to ask on the internet but they're asking for yours. give yourself some credit heh

@Hachi: ah. I have the CS6 version.
When i got the first tablet it had no sensitivity so this time
I made sure to look for something and one of my fave artists did a review on it too.
so it helps. It's not super great at times but it at least will get the job done and helping me draw
things I like.
Well I won't be drawing 1000 every single day.
I will take breaks but not several days to weeks.
I rarely draw and practice so it'll be fine.
I have doubt constantly so i kinda never believe anyone would want my art lmao.
