Show off your drawing skills!!

This was kinda rushed (and not at all refined) but I wanted to show my art homework because it's one of the rare things I'm actually proud of.

oh wow, that is very nice and stylized.

Gj! ^^

Something ive been working on the last few days. Was practicing doing shading for the first time and also attempted some effects using a tutorial I found =]

All the tutorials and guides ive used are in my favourites on deviant art, so if your trying to draw, have a look, it might help you out, it did with me ^_^

...I am so jealous of all you people

Dont be! Pick up a pen, or download a program and learn! Couple of months ago, I couldnt draw for crap xD but Cia showed me inkscape and vector art, and something just clicked with it.

So try all different styles, you -will- find one that suits you ^_^ and then just practice and use tutorials around that style xP that's all I did. If you dont try, you never will.



Edit: Forgot to say, if you have trouble drawing things that are in your head (like me), try tracing around existing shapes in images, like peoples bodies or clothing. That's what I did when first starting, and now I'm fairly okay at doing it without them, but I still use that method a little.

Yay!! You posted it!!!
Well I already gave you my thoughts via Steam, but just want to reiterate that Im so proud of you!!! ^_^

*megahug*

And yep, since I knew you were big on 3D editing, I figured a "sculpting" method of drawing would click with you easily. ^_^

You did that in 5mins? o_o wow thats good I would crack under that pressure xD

IT looks awesome ^_^ it kinda reminds me of gardevoir a bit =]

Aye, I have been drawing her for about a year or two, so its happens quickly

Ooooh! It's so cute!!! <3

And... it kinda looks a little like me too (if you tilt your head enough).

Ah! Cia! I need a little help, Inkscape deleted itself and I need to install it again. Ive installed it but it opens, then closes again D=

My friend forced me to post this on something, and I know how bad it is, I don't need to be told thanks

That's awesome jammy!

Aha! No. But thanks anyway!

well no, I agree with Audrey that looks pretty good. ^^

And as for Inkscape, hmm... might be a corrupt download. D:

Redownload the Installer version and try again:
http://inkscape.org/en/download/windows/

Before you reinstall, try uninstalling Inkscape first to clear out all the program files and personal settings.

Oops. I forgot to mention, I am on a mac.. XP That might be why the windows Installer isn't working Ahaa.. Ah..

lol. I forgot you were a Mac user... that's good that you think differently.

Okay then, redownload the Mac Installer and give it a go. ^^

I made more moderator drawings!   

ShadowScale

I tried to get Blizz to look as good as I could.  I even tried being detailed with his sword.   

BurgerWarrior

  Yep... that's Burg all right.

And that burger picture is awesome too xP dont worry thats happened to me before... and many others on the server xD its nice to see what it looks like properly xP love the facial expressions xP

Ohgeez now I'm scared of myself.

Thanks for the awesome fan art, Rad   

So I may have been watching some episodes of MLP, and some of the more action packed ones are pretty awesome xP. I think you can guess who my favourite character is, it would have been Discord but hes only in a few ones >_<.

So I drew Blizz in Spike's style, and he suits it pretty well xD maybe because he has a similar sort of look to him. The background is my own work as well =3

All hail Discord! I will worship your chaos and destruction and revel in it xP

Heh, its good discord didn't become a solftie in the S4 Episodes

Yay!  Thank you for posting your masterpiece here, Shad!  It looks fantastic, show-accurate to say the least!  

And thanks for the plug too -- I think many people who dislike the show just because it was made for "gurls" don't realize it has a lot more humor and action than they realize.  Although it has universal appeal, I wouldn't say it's a show "not just for girls", but rather it's a show that actually respects girls.  Once you give girls what they REALLY want (rather than trying to condition them into stereotypical roles), then it becomes obvious that girls and boys often like very similar things.  ^^
