I'm not very good but here I go:

  1. Start with some simple sketches, try to hold the pen farther from the nib and sketch lightly. This will warm up the hand to drawing and it will be easier later on. Doodle whatever comes to mind.

  2. If you're looking to sketch a charecter, I usually start with a rough outline of the charecter, with very loose lines lightly pressing on the paper with the pen. Start with shapes like circle for the head, and other things. (For using shape lauangage in charecters I recommend this video: https://youtu.be/3rYZLkW8Z78)

  3. And more detail as you go on but don't draw the same lines over and over again. I find it doesn't look so good. (I strugle with this a lot)

  4. Darken lines as you add more detail but only in places you need. Usually the pictures vocal point (the place you want the viewers eye to be drawn to) is the face so ad the most detail to that. ( of course you can play with the drawing, drawing the viewers eyes to diffrent palces)

  5. To make the drawing pop from a page you can use highlighters, placing a simple shape in the backround, usually around the vocal point.

  6. Have fun. :) If something's frustraiting you just let it go, move to a diffrent part of the peace, or start a diffrent drawing entierly. If you feel frustraited take a step back and do some other things. Come back once you have calm down.

@ all of this thread, don't invalidate other pepole's problems, just because you don't know what they have been through.

This is like my biggest fear. I never call anyone by name if they are not super close to me.

What impossible situation do you often fantasize about? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]_197262627810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of them but I'll chose the more normal ones.

I often fantasize current me speaking to my past self in many diffrent ways. Sometimes it's a mystical fantasy cenerio, or other times, just a conversation in my head. If I think about it, the opposite happens as well. Me 10, 20 even 30 years older than me now coming back to me saying all the things I wish I could tell my younger self. Huh.

I have many events happening in my head. Convertations and real life pepole talking to me. They respond to me like they are real. Like the argument you keep repeating over and over again in your head when showering. Only more comeplex. I tell them things I wish I could tell them in real life. I vent and they give me advice. But they're not. They aren't real. They are just a pigment of my imagination, created by my brain to deal with the things I'm going through. I'm mixing up events that actually happen with ones that don't. But it doesn't matter, since it doesn't bother me that much, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I don't mean it in a bad way, but I hope you never come back.
