How do you people draw so well?

Do you want us to say something like "We were born with it" or "I looked at such and such book or took such and such class" or do you want the boring answer?

Because mine's the boring one.

I draw like shit, but I only got to my current paltry level due to practise.

Or was it more of a compliment? wink

I'll probably come to regret this move towards the further decompartmentalization of my internet existence, but I have a deviantart gallery, too. This is probably my most favoritest thing I've ever drawn.

That's what I need to know. Many say to start with realism. I've tried; things come out rather off.

Some writing.

Dang, you people.

I won't link to my new profile because it is as of yet empty. If I ever draw something that I'm even remotely satisfied with and upload it, I'll link to the profile.

I never had books or classes. I've been drawing as long as I can remember. And I do it "wrong," I know. I start with the eyes and make the picture from there. But I don't really care, it's not like I'd ever do this for a living. It's just a hobby so do whatever feels natural. I hate to say it, but it takes practice and time. Classes and books just tell you how to do it their way. It's better to find your own, at least in my opinon.

Blackmoon: MUDA-DAH! MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAH!

This is probably my most favoritest thing I've ever drawn.

This here is badass.

Zeta: Hey, I start with the eyes too! When I'm doing a realistic portrait, I start with the head, which just feels icky to me.

Not me. I may be around your level, though. How many tries does it take you to produce a person that doesn't look hideously deformed? Maybe 10% of my sketchbook is made of success, and even then, I doubt.

And there's people that draw better than us. The fact that there's better people out there shouldn't be a roadblock to you.

IT SHOULD BE A CHALLENGE. TAKE IT

I will join the level grinding. That'll make me watching a show, sketching, and chatting on Vent at once.

Some writing.
