In some Marshall Vandruff lectures he showed some art styles that were very successful but the artists didn't know anatomy, or even much design sense (i.e. viral webcomics). He said it's about goals and if your goal is telling the story and you don't care for anatomy then don't worry about it.

That said human anatomy is an art fundamental, knowing it can only help! And you're essentially learning creature anatomy too since it's just variations of the same system.

While it is a life long study that you need to revisit, the bones and muscles don't change, so in a way you kind of only need to do it once, all the subsequent visits just build and increase the understanding.

It's easier said than done but don't look at how high the mountain is, just take the first step and pace yourself. The walk is actually really enjoyable ^^

Yea i am kinda like that i look at the mountain instead of enjoying the hike i am kinda hard on myself when you put it like that.
