Practice is all it takes with anything. Being good at something does not come over night, it takes time and a lot of time, patients and inspiration to perfect a craft. Many have been and felt the same way you have, it's a matter of continue moving forward.

What the fuck man, you're really going to let those worthless trolls get under your skin and back out of doing something you believe in?

Lemme tell you something, YOUR HEAD IS IN THE RIGHT PLACE asking for commissions. YES you need practice, YES there's always room to improve, but you were ON POINT with that shit. That was correct of you because it is a fucking LABOR. It is HARD WORK appeasing a CLIENT when it comes to the creative industry.

Now, random assholes on a forum, on the other hand? You CANNOT expect to please everybody. Especially with insecure little bitches that feel so bad about themselves that they feel compelled to tear down someone who had the GUTS and the BALLS to throw themselves out there. Being creative will be a constant battle with your own INVULNERABILITY.

If you TRULY WANT TO DO THIS SHIT, you're going to meet that again...and again...constantly, in reviews, in passing general opinions, off-hand remarks, in scores, in lack of attention, you're going to see that shit with clients that don't know what they want, with clients who will try to squeeze everything out of you for as little money as possible, I've been there dude. And I never gave up because this is a skillset that I'm proud of...and it fucking breaks my heart to see someone at that point in their life where they're doing a lot of art, they're practicing all the time, and they're at that unstable, insatiable point in their life as an artist where all it takes is ONE ANONYMOUS DOUCHEBAG to call EVERYTHING into question. That's fucked up if you buy into that bullshit, and that ain't fair to yourself, it ain't fair to the time and effort you put into a craft of yours that YOU BELIEVE IN.

Fight those motherfuckers and prove them wrong by practicing. Step outside of your comfort zone and improve. You deserve that much.

We all hit that point eventually, and then we draw. Then we hit that point again. Then we draw. Then we hit that point again, and then we go shoot up a school. Then we draw.

I can give you a file of a project file I made in April 2013 if you wan't to see how bad I was before I shot up a school.

Pretty much what @Phobotech said, just keep practising and you'll get better with time, man.
It takes time to improve, just do it a bit everyday or whenever you have the time and you'll notice you're getting better after a while.
