It's a little corny but I have always wanted to be able to tell stories.
And I feel like each of my stories requires something different to be told. Some I feel should be movies and others should be graphic novels. Even sometimes I want to tell a story with just a normal traditional work of art. My goal here is to get the skills to tell whatever story I want.

Become capable of drawing concept art for projects, some people I want to work with think that you can just do things with no experience or forethought and get it done. I disagree and want to grind myself into a fine powder before I even attempt producing stuff to show to the world.
Unfortunately I generally suck at drawing basic shapes, it's still very early days though so hopefully grinding on Loomis will produce something acceptable.

>>876It's a dumb, fun movie. Really stylish but kind of brings to mind that 'wacky races' cartoon from the 70's, check it out some time. Other films like 'Highlander' and 'Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust' by the same studio really show off the kind of detail that is possible. Unfortunately yeah, if you wanted to produce your own short animation that level of detail isn't achievable for a one man operation.
Of course, if you don't like the idea of drawing the same character hundreds and hundreds of times to begin with regardless of what concessions you have to make or not animation probably isn't for you anyway. Nothing wrong with that, it's not for everybody.

The former. I can often remember 2-4 dreams a night if I don't sleep like three hours and get out of bed in a rush. It's probably because I involuntarily wake up multiple times a night but keeping a dream journal has also helped with recall. They're often too abstract for me to write them out in coherent sentences.

Do you really never recall any dreams? Because as far as I know everyone dreams and it's just a matter of how well you remember them. I used to have like one dream a week but I started that journal and did other things to help it.
A night or two ago I saw a dream where someone wrote a long post on why I'll never be a true artist and I should stick to doodling self-expressionist crap. I only now realized it was a dream and got confused.
And thanks, good luck on your journey too if you still read this board.

Art began for me as a compulsion so my end goal has never been very clear, I kind of just kept pooping out drawings.
The stories of those drawings eventually matured so now I'll have to make them move and take actions somehow lest I end up wasting well over ten years of work.
The real joke however is that I'm self-learned and for a large portion of my life drew things from my memories and thoughts, not by directly copying what I see. As such, I have a very inconveniently skewed set of skills that I need to fix first.
Just need to keep going.

It's hard to decide where I'm going exactly, but career wise, short term (as in for a few years), I'd like to do porn comics. It's not a lot of money, but it would be more about building up my comic ability and gaining a following–I would do colorist or line art jobs, but I actually REALLY like drawing porn, and it's good practice. Once I'm at a good cut off point–I have enough fans and I've been working long enough to know I can handle personal projects–I'll slowly feed into having a studio/business producing comics, games, visual novels, light novels, and MAYBE animations.
This is all very scattered thoughts and I am VERY open to changing my career goals; right now, I'm just focused on the basics. As far as the art level I'm reaching for, I'm trying to let it come naturally through studies of other artists and then trying to incorporate what I learn into my own style. One person whose work I admire is CassetteRecorder, so that's one of my inspirations–I decided to start learning how to paint because of them.

The problem with drawing porn is that it's hard to make a "legitimate" career after the fact because even if you're not sheepish about tying your porn to your real identity your existing following you gained making endless porn comics will not likely overlap with any non-porn work you decide to do.

That's certainly somewhat fair, but my "legitimate" career is going to involve porn to an extent.
Part of my goal is perhaps to show that porn can be art, and that something with porn in it isn't inherently bad.
But, that's all subject to change. I've always loved porn since I was like…10. Masturbation and having sex isn't particularly that appealing to me (well, I mean, more then the normal amount of every once in a while), but the subject of sex in art is really, really fascinating. If I hadn't been an artist, I would've studied human sexuality or something.

Man, there are a lot of people that want to draw porn here ;)
I have numerus goals, both long term and short. In the long run I want to be able to live comfortably on freelance illustration/concept art work. This goal is rather huge but lately it has started to look reasonable. Been able to get decent paying illustration jobs as well as worked on a few small games. It's not huge but to me it shows me that my goals are possible.
A shorter term goal is to just finish studying at the atelier I'm at (studying classical academic drawing and painting) and leave with as much knowledge and skill I possibly can. I have about 2.5 years left to study and then I need to get back into working full time as an artist (scary shit).
I've been thinking of applying for work doing board and card game art when I'm on break from school. A lot of that artwork was what inspired me when I was younger.
Right now my sort term goal is to just make more of my own paintings, even if they're not that good. I'm exhausted after studying 12 hours, 6 days a week at the atelier so when I'm home all I can do is cook food and go to bed. Need to make more time for digital art.
I also want to try and setup an online presence as an artist. I want to do demo videos and stuff but I just have so little free time that it's not easy to start something like that.
PS. the image is just a speed painting thing I've been working on before going to bed

It depends a bit on what atelier you go to. Some are a bit more loose with the "academic" stuff while others are very strict with it. The quality of ateliers differ but they're generally good. It's worth visiting the place first to talk to teachers and students.
Often new students need to get accustomed to the pace of an atelier and that can take several weeks. There will be a lot of information your first term and I think the most important thing is to just try and learn one thing at a time. You'll be bombarded with new concepts that can be difficult to understand at first so keeping a notebook with you is worth it. Few people at my atelier take notes but I've found it really helpful to write down what you learn, the critiques you get and the questions you have.
When studying, I find it important to avoid the "autopilot" mode like the plague. It's important to be self reflective and think "what can I do differently/how can I improve my next drawing" when starting something new. The students that don't challenge themselves to do things differently, take risks and explore different approaches don't really learn as fast as those that do.
Generally, I think that if you take your education seriously, take some passion with you and use your brain, you'll get a lot out of it. These are the three things I notice that the successful students have that others don't.

The great thing is that there is a big demand for GOOD artwork and even decent demand for okay art (this demand also won't ever disappear, only grow). Everyone is in a band now and when you have 5 people wanting to put out something they poured their heart and soul into, they're willing to spend a few hundred bucks on album art (even more for bigger bands and record companies). It's money divided through the members and even small bands can pay you fairly well.
They're often exited to work with you and don't have huge expectations so if you make something cool, they often love it. Now the downside is that you're often not working with an art director, you're working with normal people. They don't always know how to communicate their ideas well and at times they want something that won't turn out well visually. Often this can be worked around but sometimes you just have to bite the bullet ( I consider it part of the job to help them realise their own ideas). Also, it may be a little chaotic becomes conflicting ideas among members can make things a little complicated. Now with bigger bands and record companies, they often have "a guy" that you'll work with that is either an AD or just one member of the band that knows what they want.
A lot of what you do is for their Spotify and Facebook stuff but a lot of band still print CDs. It's something they tend to sell at concerts and I don't think that will ever fully disappear. I know from personal experience that when I go to shows I want to leave with at least a shirt or an album :)
It's a good goal anon, I hope you make something of it!

Instead of going to college, I want to be able to practice my art skills full time, to do that I will either save enough cash so I won't have to work for at least half a year or I will find a passive income. When I am good enough to show off my art and when I have a good enough portfolio I would ideally want to get a job in a video game studio and get a career in video games but I don't mind doing work for other types of media companies until then.
I don't want to go to college and get a shitty job as a lawyer or whatever and there isn't anything that they could teach you about art in college anyway that you wouldn't learn by yourself eventually, this seems like a crazy plan to me and I'm sure if I told my family about it they would agree with me, but I would be 100x happier this way than working in a shitty job that I hate as a doctor or something for the rest of my life.

To be able to fully realize every single minute detail of the pictures I imagine, and to be able to tell a coherent story with them.
Basically I'd like to be able to draw things and not have to explain what it is people are looking at to them, unless it's supposed to be incomprehensible.
It may sound like I'm aiming low, but the level of detail I'm talking about trying to realize here is far from low.
Beyond that, I'd also just like to be "good" I don't know how to describe it since I'm new to the whole art thing, so I don't have any examples to post, but you can probably tell what I'm talking about. Like, detail and color that doesn't leave you guessing what the person drew.

Weird, I've never gotten a boner while drawing before. I don't even jerk off to my own drawings because all I think of when I look at them is what I could do to get better.
Other people's drawings are fine, though, and I draw my fetish because I hope that other people who are into it might also draw it.
I'm not sure how much this will help, but if you're drawing your fetishes and you keep having to jerk off, try only focusing on the quality of the drawing instead of the content.

Had an idea for a comic, decided to learn to draw.
Funny enough since I've started learning (3 years ago now, art is just starting to look halfway acceptable) my writing has significantly improved and the concept for the comic has completely changed.
Originally it was about a zombie chick walking around a psychedelic wasteland and completing random tasks. It's currently a comedy about a dude who looks like he came out of Stalker in a desert wasteland killing ghosts and anomalies for cash.
My major struggle at this time is figuring out how to balance realism and stylization. I made the early on mistake of animu as inspiration.
Thankfully I've wriggled out of that hole somewhat by drawing noses and lips that aren't just a line.

Then I found out about Akabur, sparrow, cicada, musikalgenius, sadi, polyle, garabatoz, blargsnarf, and fixxer, and at first I thought to myself "hey, shad isn't uploading anything, at least I have alternatives."
Now it's more like the opposite, but the point still stands. I want someone to go "Oh hey, X isn't uploading. Well, shit maybe that other guy is doing something interesting", you know?

"short" term is to refine my drawing skills and learn better habits. Medium term is to develop a proper art-style(s), and learn how to do everything digitally. All of this leads to the long term goal of drawing my own comics.
End goal is to make at least one good comic book. Not that it's too hard, considering how bad, limited, and amateurish American comics have been for the last few years. Ultimate and borderline impossible goal would be to revolutionize American comics.

>I'm finding it very difficult to find people who want to do the same. To really create things with high standards, not just draw cheap fap material and gondolas or some tumblrshit.
I'm not exactly sure about this, which's why I made the poll, but I think a big part of anons here actually want to draw good art, but is just not there yet.
I like provocative art, in a way. Not literal dick in a canvas, "I want to provoke society" provocative, just art that stirs a feeling in people. Personally I like melancholy, desolation and cute girls, so I'd like to make good art that provokes that sort of feeling.
I don't want to work with art in any way. Sure, I'd do a couple commissions for extra money if I needed to, but I don't want to work with it for life, for me it's mostly just a hobby. Still, I want to study hard and pay proper respect to my vision. I'll keep going until I'm happy with myself, then continue after that.
People who think of it as a hobby and don't even try to work towards getting better disgust me. People who actually work with it and don't try to get better disgust me even more.
I'm not sure if everyone here is as radical as me, but I'm sure at least a couple anons think so as well.

I've got a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fanPart outlined that I'd like to actually draw at some point, plus I just get a lot of ideas for sketches I'd like to have the skill to make something of and every now and then just get an impulse to draw something that, once again, I'd like to have the skill to really act on properly.

Doesn't really grab my interest. I am not a big fan of capes and other vigilantes (save for old Shadow comics or an odd elseworld/one-shot) and very picky when it comes to art. It also gives off an impression of putting propaganda over the story, which is almost always a mistake.

My main reason for learning art is because I really liked to draw when I was little but stopped because I always got yelled at for it, and I just want to get rid of the regret I have from stopping.
As for actual goals, I eventually want to try to adapt a short story into a kinetic novel, since I feel like that's something that hasn't really been done before.
In the long term, I still want to be a full-time programmer and don't want to make a career out of art, but I think it'd be really cool to illustrate the cover of a novel or an album someday.
