ええと、ええと…まず私はあなたの絵の実力を知らないので、何点か作品を見せてもらえるなら、どの程度のレベルか言う事はできますが、絵の技術というのは誰でも上手くなろうと練習すればするほど、それに比例して技術力がUPするので、今現在あなたがどのレベルにいようと一年後はめっちゃ上手くなってプロとして活躍している可能性は大いにありますよね。なので、周囲の言う事は、特に日本のマンガ業界を直接自身の実体験として知っている人以外の言う事は、はっきり言って全くあてにならないと思います。
私はマンガ家さんのアシスタントを少ししていましたし漫画の投稿も多少していたので、此の業界のことは多少なりとも知っていますが、今2020年ですよね?たとえば昭和の時代なら、投稿かアシスタント修行以外に漫画家になる道はありませんでしたが、インターネットが発達した今、小中学生でさえネット環境さえあれば世界中から投稿して大勢に作品を見てもらい評価を受ける機会がいくらでもありますよね?ならば、外野がどう言おうが全然関係ない。あなたがすべき事は「絵を描きたい」という気持ちを大事にする事。
そして、ひたすら絵を大量に描くことです。毎日描いて描いて描いて、悩んでいる暇などありません。この業界はアニメ業界と同じで完全実力主義です。周囲があなたの代わりに絵を描いてくれるわけではないですし、足を引っ張ることしかできないなら、私たちにとって邪魔なだけの存在です。どうやらあなたの置かれている環境はあまりよくないようですね。環境を変えた方が良いのでは?
同じ漫画家を目指す同志が大勢いる場所、例えば東京とかでプロの漫画家のアシスタントでもしながら投稿してデビューを目指しては?
How about go to a place like Tokyo where there are many people who have the similar aim which is to become a manga artist, and at first work as an assistant of a pro manga artist, then sometimes try sending your own work to publishers in order to start your own career.
How about aiming at being debut by posting your works while being an assistant for professional manger writers, for example, in Tokyo where there are many people who are focusing to be a manga writer.
Where do you aim to make your debut by posting as a professional manga artist assistant in places where there are many comrades who are aiming for the same manga artist, such as Tokyo?
アシスタントは左程レベルが高くなくても、採用されます。一番重視されるのは先生と相性が合いそうかどうか性格的なもの、次に技術力です。
漫画講座のある学校や大学へ入学して、そこでスキルアップするのも良いですね。
今ちょっと漫画を学べる学校を調べてみました。
(英語検索が苦手なので全部日本の学校ですが、すみません)
周囲に何を言われようと、いちいち相手にしては駄目です。アニメや漫画業界は非常に歴史が長いですし、熱意さえあればちゃんと道は用意されています。国籍も年齢も関係ないですよ。
It is also good to enter a school or university with a manga course and improve your skills there.
I checked a school where I can learn manga a little now.
(All are Japanese schools because I am not good at English search, sorry)
No matter what the surroundings say, it's useless. The anime and manga industries have a very long history, and if you have the enthusiasm, you have the right path. It doesn't matter your nationality or age.
It would be a good idea to skill up by attending Manga lessons at school or university.
I have just now checked a school or so, where you can study manga.

What people around you say, you had better ignore them. As animation and manga industries have a long history, and if you have your guts, there is a way. Your nationality and age are nothing to do with them.

I looked for some schools to learn Manga. I am sorry that I am not good at using English, so all schools are Japanese.
You should not take other people's comments seriously. There is a way to be a Manga artist as long as you have a passion because areas of Manga and Anime have a long history. Your nationality and age do not matter.

Irregardless of what was being said, do not be let down. Anime and manga industries have long history, and if you have the enthusiasm, plan towards the right path. Nationality or age does not matter.
今のあなたの努力の方向で間違いはないので、負けずに頑張って下さい。
未来を自分で切り開くんです。漫画家になりたいのになれない人は、皆、将来に不安を抱いて熱意が負けてしまうんです。漫画家業はいわば声優やタレント業と同じです。食べていけるかどうか心配しだしたらキリがありません。成功する人は皆、そんな不安よりも漫画に対する熱意が大きく勝って、漫画が好きで好きで描き続けた結果、気が付いたら成功しているんです。
あなたには強い熱意があるはずです。周囲の無理解に負けてはなりません。
