@darktiste - I'll try to explain my mindset: When I have a story to tell and characters to develop I can muster all my strength into the art and the writing, but I got burned on my comic book projects a decade ago - these things take an insane amount of time to make and time is limited. Having lost the hope to tell my stories, I lost the taste for drawing. What is happening to me now, as far as I understand, is that the more recent layers are collapsing and I'm reconnecting to the ancient core where things are less structured but the drive is stronger. In other words, no more projects but an urge to express something (not sure what exactly) in a more primitive way.
I don't deny the importance of the fundamentals. I've actually been drawing a gazillion spheres, boxes, perspective chaos, wire bodies, etc... since childhood. I'm not sure what's left of it after the long hiatus, and I probably lack in all departments, plus I'm suffering from a new shortcoming that appeared with using digital tablets: slanting and skewing the figures, can't fight that off.
I hope this makes sense?
Inktober 2. Feeling bad for spamming the forum with a daily post when I have only this to post - but Inktober is a daily thing by definition.
