Its funny but you are very right...people arent as brave as you to admit that jealousy does come into play a lot when it comes to art. Even Im willing to admit it helps me push myself a lot....asking yourself "If they can why cant I?"
And yes sometimes it can be rather intimidating seeing other enormously talented people only to find out they are younger than you :P. Well just remember, us old fogies were not introduced to the internet and places like deviant until our late teens...what can ya do? We all evolve at our own rates...ya just gotta give yourself time..however frustrating that may be sometimes..and I do know that feeling all too well. I still get it more often than I would like to admit. Ive only worked with ps for about a year..this month..actually..is my one year anniversary with both ps and my tablet...soooo ifn ya think it takes forever to learn the program and jump in skill levels...look at me....I mean gods I cant believe (looking back) that its only been a year...holy fudgecakes (mmm fudge)
SO really, the one that that determines how far ya are gonna get is your own will...and just how bull headed are you ;). I for one am probably...waaaayyyyy too bullheaded for my own good.
*pets cha* and if ya ever need tips or get lost in ps, ashk meh...Ill be more than willing to try and help out :)..or help find some good tutorials on things you are looking to do. Deviant actually has quite a few :).
