Calling all people who can't draw

[FinalHeart95]

I doodle like mad. I might try to find my bio folder from last year... I was so bored I turned the "B" in Biology into sunglasses for a smiley.

I'm not good though. Stick figures ftw!

I cant draw, my hand just doesn't like to do what i tell it to. I sometimes have trouble drawing a straight line when i have straight edge.

 

[rosemystica]

I can draw some things. I can do landscapes pretty well. And monsters.

But my people-drawing skills are lacking. I can't draw people in anything other than a few static poses, and I can't draw men at all. (I tried to draw one of the male protagonists in one of my stories and he wound up looking like a semi-butch chick with a Chelsea haircut... D: Argh!)

I draw anyway, though. It's fun.

 

[Blind Sight]

I can't draw, I blame the fact that I HATE using pens, pencils, or any other kind of single hand writing tool...I much prefer typing.

 

[scorptatious]

I cannot draw to save my life. And what really pisses me off about this is that every single class in high school had us do a drawing assignment. It's really embarrassing when I have to turn in something that looks like something a kinder gardener can concoct.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

I can't draw whatsoever. I'm more of a writer myself.

I agree with your statement on drawing assignments >:|

Drama? Draw something
English? Draw something
History? Draw something
Biology? Draw something


It's all the same! I hate when work is irrelevant...

I am horrible at drawing; I draw worse than a 5-year old. I am so bad at drawing that I even make stick figures look terrible.

Don't even ask about by handwriting....you would have better luck deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphs. Funnily enough, though, I can actually be suprisingly competent at putting words and sentences together. Thank heavens for computers.

 

[feeback06]

I have terrible hand writing and can't draw, but fortunately I've learned to live with it.

 

[BRMXJzjsoawk321]

I have decent handwriting, I was considered to be good at drawing when I was younger but once I hit middle school there were tons of people much better than me.

Now in high school I can barely be motivated to draw at all, considering I get to watch this senior sit in front of me at lunch drawing a god damn manga.

Eh, sometimes I get the drawings down right, sometimes they turn out to be absolutely terrible.. If I don't focus on drawing it, I draw it fine.. If I focus too hard it turns out to be shite..

 

[Ultra_Caboose]

I've been drawing for years and years. To this day, I don't think I'm very good at all. I'm horrible at drawing women and animals and non-mech vehicles are damn near impossible for me.
I do make a few good ones on occaision. If anyone's interested, here's a collection of some of my favorites... by me... because I'm awesome.

Can I just say that I love this one?
Like, inappropriately.

Why yes. Yes you can.

That's me, being realy pissed for some reason.

 

[RatRace123]

No tablet pad on my laptop, I'm a bit better at hand drawing, especially if I actually look at something like a photo, and then sketch it out.
I'm OK, not great.

 

[lacktheknack]

I suck at drawing as well... I have a terrible sense of proportion in my head.

 

[lacktheknack]

I can't draw. Period. I'm artistically dead. Can't even cut straight with scissors.

Wow. I want to see your rendition of da Vinci.

 

[AvsJoe]

I've never tried to be a good artist. I can draw a damn near perfect servebot, but nothing else. The last time I put some effort into a drawing, my attempt at a dog looked like an unholy combination of a dog, a crocodile, a crab, and a human (Cani-Croco-Huma-Crab?).

I didn't do a lot in high school either, I started wanting to more in college and I felt like I had fallen behind in my ability. Its just a matter of starting I think, if I can get the ball rolling I can get a lot done.

<- Artist.

It takes practice, just following a guide isn't going to get you results instantly. Drawing isn't assembling a desk there's more to it. Keep playing with it, keep a loose grip on your pencil and just make lighter looser shapes and then detail it up and eventually something will come out of it.

Have you tried to put together a desk? Mine is glass and metal, it was an art to make all that hold together and not drop the 60-80 lbs of glass on me.

I can't draw worth shit but I paint mini's so that counts for my artistic requirments right?

 

[Sacman]

I'm a perfectionist when it comes to drawing... I need every line and texture and detail to be perfect... I hate drawing for this reason...<.<
