Dream of being a mangaka
>they all say it's poorly paid and extremely harsh work
Almost everyone says so about their work
Try writing a light novel
thank you user.
take your meds
>dream of being mangaka
>awful at everything
>remember that people actually read Manhuas and enjoy(?) them
>there is still hope!
if you're awful at being a mangaka you're not going to be doing any better by doing a manhua you fucking retard
A'ight user, do you enjoy drawing? Or you just like reading shit thinking "Man I wish I had drawn this"?
We both know the audience for manhua and webcomics are people with less than no standards, user.
dont mind him, clearly he enjoys his cultivation manhuas
Mangaka being an awful job is something male mangaka say a lot. A lot of female mangaka instead talk about when they visited other countries, their boner for maids, their assistants. They make it look like a normal job.
>>they all say it's poorly paid and extremely harsh work
It feels like everyone says this about his own profession that one stays into anyway.
>way too untalented to
Literally never ever going to make it that way. Nobody was born capable, you need to practice to cultivate a skill.
t. someone too far down that path to back out.
Try to get to One's level and come up with a very eayi premise.
>to cultivate
This. Junior will never get anywhere if he doesn't cultivate, but if his talent is trash then I'm afraid...
Just write light novels.
Just draw.
Hallmark card bullshit. You should give it your absolute best effort for a year or two, and you shouldn't give up at the first bump in the road or plateau, but if you're watching several packs of beginners pass you by even as you work your ass off day in and day out, it's probably time to accept that your brain just isn't cut out for this and you should probably look elsewhere for your career.
where would a westoid upload a light novel where it wouldn't be read only by troglodytes ala fanfiction, tumblr, wattpad, but also where it won't get laughed at ala any actual site?
Finish it first. If people enjoyed it, it'll spill over anywhere without your control. You could start by posting it in your own blogsite or something.
The path to learning isn't so linear, binary or particularly well understood by most people in the first place, while also being constantly muddied by people who either grossly exaggerate or understate their experiences and how much effort they actually put into things.
You could put your all into everything but if you did it without critical thought, guidance or direction then it's actually understandable why "less experienced" people might sail past you. It's just as likely you didn't use your time effectively, not that you're incapable.
There are no poor artists
Just artists who don't want to draw furry porn
More like "Man, if I could visualize my ideas like that"
junko's little whorelet a cute!
shame she gave up just like that.. though she'll eventually return to despair right? her NEET life is just a phase right??
right???
As sad as it is this is true.
Funny thing is, people with talent always tell you there is no talent, yet untalented people say there is
...
Because it's really fucking annoying when people downplay or practically deny the effort you put into your work behind the scenes.
Also because "untalented" people can still make good shit. Just because you're not capable of being the best evar and it's harder than that guy over there who seems to do everything without breaking a sweat doesn't mean your own work has no qualities of its own. I personally think people should do what they want to do, I think more works of quality would arise and I'm all for there being more good shit to read, don't care who made it or if it took them two years or twenty years to get to the point of bringing it into the world.
Don't feel so bad.
Every single artist, from Micheangelo and beyond, drew loads after loads of porn because it is what pays the bill
Degenerates just happened to be the richest.
