But at that point i'd rather draw for the animation instead. But then I'll need to make a portfolio and do formal art training again lmfao. Personally, I did not like sitting for hours in a traditioal art studio that much (this one guy had posters like "our students went to Stanford!!", and they were clearly grinding competitions rather than focusing on learning technique.) But, I also saw some storyboards for KDH where the pose and expression was what was more important than artistic skill and accuracy (specifically, it was the "i didn't even get to finish my ramyeon" storyboard.) That was pretty dope, gets me thinking about what I can do when I am 40-50 and want to do something else.
