it’s dead. But it will come back to life later.

I don’t think it’s weird. My focus is obviously anatomy. It’s not like I’m doing anything differently than a “normal” artist other than choosing to draw questionable subject matter. I still had to devote years of my life to learn how to draw just like they did.

Anyway, start with the basics. The fundamentals. Anatomy, perspective, color theory, etc. There’s so much to cover and it can get pretty boring/overwhelming, but the artists who push through that and master those things are the ones who become the Miyazakis and Craig Mullins of our age. Read this and take what you will from it. It’s a great start especially if you’re broke as fuck like me.

That’s not to say you can’t make a living if you wing that stuff. Plenty of people do if they find their niche, but it depends on how far you want to go with your art. The more you are capable of, the more you understand about the world around you and why things look the way they do, the further you can push your craft.
