same goes with ref sheets for my characters! though thar just falls under the fact that i've noticed most look the same in regards to face structure/ angle/ features and im trying my harders to get over that but i cant?? i'm s t u c k dr awing at the same angle with near same nose and eyes even when i use my drawimg tablet. and then there is my inability to figure out how to draw a body in this small screen that isn't too small or too big which is why i tend to draw characters up to their shoulders or maybe just a bit lower when not in "chibi" and even then they look either too big or too small.
i'm so.upset with my 'artistic abilities' right now and no matter what i do i just cant shake off this mess i just want to be able to finish the things i owe people but it's near impossible and ive been battling it for months and time just keeps dragging on!! when i said id finally finish things it just. never happens and people keep on PATIENTLY WAITING like,,bless them but i s uck

Honestly, I'm really bad with giving advices, and if I can, I'd give you a big big hug to atleast release some tension

You're seriously talented though! I'm sure this rut will pass

I don't blame you for getting overwelmed with other ppl designs so its hard to do requests or trades. But u also need to kn ur own limits. I'm not trying to b rude or put u down more. But ppl really look up to u. Ur an amazing & talented artest, I never seen someone with ur art style b4. But don't say ull do requests or trade if u kn it's going to overwelme u. A lot of ppl/ including myself would love to c our ocs in ur style. & it's awsome that u wanna do them. But being ur fans I'm sure no one wants u to stress ovee it.

& agen Im not trying to b rude
But take it easy on urself ok

I've gone through some of this as well. In fact I'm going through it right now. I've felt more and more like my characters were all the same with slight differences. I was very frustrated with myself and I really hated my art.
I decided it was due time for something new. I found some of my favourite artists and I hunted down all their tutorials. I even tried to draw a few times in their styles. I really pushed myself to create more variation and find a style that allowed more change. I researched character developement, anatomy and differences in faces. Right now I'm working on different body types.
There are all sorts of things that play into the individuality of each character. I found it helps to write a list of things that makes each unique. [i.e. jaw line, nose shape, complexion, personality, style of dress, build, likes, hobbies, etc.]
I would suggest to do some studies on styles, faces and body types/anatomy in general.
I know you can get over this obstacle, so don't give up!

I feel you hermano its okay !! i know exactly how you feel, i literally had to do the same thing because it just started making me anxious and all these people wanted me to draw things and i just couldnt say no. and so i got stuck with hella requests and anxiety, and eventually i just had to let em all go.. and i felt like crap for a long time afterwards but eventually i felt better in the long run cause i wasnt confined to those requests anymore, and the people would literally wait forever bless em. but anyway i totally feel you, do what you need to do for you !!
