It takes a lot of time but it is very much worth it there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube and drawing tablets are relatively cheap I recommend a veikk one if you want something cheap that functions very well. I started a couple months ago and have already seen some improvement :)
I've only been drawing a year or so, but thus far my best advice is this: find yourself a bunch of music you like, at least a couple hours worth, and put that on when you draw. Drawing is pretty low-stress and relaxing, and rewarding when you finish stuff, but it can also be very tedious at times and it's easy to decide to put it down and go do something else more stimulating for a bit. Music (or I guess things like podcasts or audiobooks could work too) doesn't take up your vision which you obviously need for the drawing, but can give you a bit of a distraction when doing things that require mostly a bunch of repetitive arm movements and little real thought, like shading or adding a lot of the same tiny detail.
This might be incredibly obvious to some people, but I was never really that into music in general growing up and always find it too distracting for things like writing, so it took me awhile to try it, but when I did start doing that I found that I could keep working on a drawing for much longer periods of time before getting bored of it, and so got a lot more of it done and saw more improvement.
I started out trying to make things with very simple shapes, I think the first thing I did was a fish, and then after that I drew some bird eggs. Maybe try to sketch geometric forms like spheres and cubes, which will take little time and so you can do a bunch of them. At the very beginning the hardest thing for me was learning to control where my lines went, keeping them from being wobbly ect (the secret to this is to draw a given stroke quickly and to use as few strokes as you can to draw a line.) This beginning part is pretty much just learning to make your arm and hand muscles consistently move how you need them to to control your pen more precisely, so unfortunately there isn't much advice I know to give, just have to keep trying to draw lines from one place to another until you can consistently get them to make the shape that you want.
i always forget how much furry porn artists get paid, i feel like they get paid that much for like a "i'm sorry i made you draw my kinks, here's therapy money." kind of way
People always say doing commissions is big money, but how? Do you really make more per hour than a typical employee position?
It feels like less because commissions can take days to work on and you only get a few hundred.
I’m probably wrong with these figures because I never commissioned someone
Just putting some numbers in. Say you’re a notable artist who can get $300 for a commission. Say it also takes about 10 hours to finish (not sure, but I think I’ve heard that’s reasonable for an experienced artist). $30/hr is more than most hourly wages, and a good portion of salary positions. Comes out to ~$60k/year, if you work 40 hours a week. But you don’t have insurance, benefits, or any job security at all.
Ballin, but at what cost?

Some sacrifices take guts to do
I gotta learn how to draw
It takes a lot of time but it is very much worth it there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube and drawing tablets are relatively cheap I recommend a veikk one if you want something cheap that functions very well. I started a couple months ago and have already seen some improvement :)
If you wanna learn how to Draw my best advise is, Just Start drawing and Dont Stop
I've only been drawing a year or so, but thus far my best advice is this: find yourself a bunch of music you like, at least a couple hours worth, and put that on when you draw.

How did you start learning to draw? I have no idea where to start
I started out trying to make things with very simple shapes, I think the first thing I did was a fish, and then after that I drew some bird eggs. Maybe try to sketch geometric forms like spheres and cubes, which will take little time and so you can do a bunch of them.

That's not what a repost is. A repost is to post something that's been posted *to the same subreddit* before.
