I complain about the lack of art fundamentals at my art school a lot. But at least I left with skills with my degree.

However, I can empathize with the rage this guy must feel against his old school. Still, funny as hell.

Easily the best 1200 Job Points I've ever spent.

Some comics aren't amusing to everyone. In this case, I know 3 people that will get this joke total. For the rest, enjoy some stupid faces.

So over the last month I've been coming to a realization. I've stopped furthering my art skills. This bothers me to know end. It seems since I left school, I've stopped searching out new art styles and studying them. Sure my technical and detail skills have jumped leaps and bounds, but it feels like I lack a base, or something more fundimental that prevents my work.

This came up when I noticed how much I was getting frustrated trying to get what was in my head on paper. At first I thought it was my tools at fault. While that may be a factor, I think my problem is more personal. So I've decided to start working on this. I think my biggest fear now, is that I will fail.

So now I'm once again collecting art. Particular ones close to my own style so that I have a starting point. The problem is that this won't be a fast process. So my frustration will continue. So emo-Ian will continue to be emo. =_=

Till next post.
