I haven't been practicing. I've been feeling sick all the time, too depressed to stick with anything, and any good art I post would just get scraped for AI.
Edit: I'm slowly sipping some tea and moving over to shapes because trying to shade lightly and evenly with cross hatched ink is driving me spare
So sorry you are going through this. A hobby should be for enjoyment, so do what you can, in shorts bursts, without any notion of how much time you ‘should’ spend on something. Each new technique will take time but be rewarding. You are probably far more skilled already than you give yourself credit for. I reckon I would struggle to draw a stick figure. I would be supremely impressed by anyone who could produce something even close to those shaded examples!
Thanks. I just get discouraged and the health problems are unreal at the moment. I might just stick to casual practice without putting the pressure on
