What did you started drawing?

[Chutzpar]

trying to copy what everyone else does will not make you into an artist
First you were asking people to show them your sketches so you could "see how it's done" or whatever, and now you're begging people to tell you how they started

there is no fucking magical spell or series of actions that make you capable of drawing. I'm getting really fucking sick of your constant asking and then never doing. Or when you actually do something you blatantly ignore the actual lesson therein and just play it on the nose and do the same as every other fucking retard on deviantart - I'm drawing lots of heads! I'm drawing lots of hands! I will then go on to utterly ignore (or just not even fucking realise) what these drawings were for BUT I DREW A PAGE OF HANDS THAT'LL MAKE ME GOOD RIGHT

I know somebody who does exactly that (except she copies other people's pics too). She started drawing... 2 years ago, and I haven't seen anything done "free". Plus I agree with the other things you've mentioned, Zeemort.

I've always drawn (I drew McDonald's wtf, Duke Nukem, Spiderman... ~2-7 years, marker pen), and I've had a DBZ and Metroid fixation (~12-15, pencil/biro) but I've moved on to something more personal and realistic. I started painting last year and my art teacher thought what I did was pretty good for a first try. I don't like my sketches, but he likes looking at them.

I'd like to see more of your stuff, Mabelma. It's interesting knowing how people started drawing but it's no use tracing our experiences. We're all unique and our experiences make who we are and contribute to your style (in this case drawing style).

You said what I was trying to, but you were clearer and nicer about it ¦D
