Going to be brave and get back in to drawing...

So a few people have commented on my drawing skills so I am going to give it a go and start drawing again in the evenings and upload photos as I go. Actually really nervous as haven't drawn in about 6 years... so going to start small will a comic book cover and work up from there... just creating a thread to monitor my progress and hopefully get support as I often start Things and don't finish them... all set up and ready to go...

Think I have the shape almost there but my pens are a little rubbish and the paper is soaking in and making it bleed. Going to try doing the outline in black pen then colour in using coloured pencils instead. I just need to remember where I put them :P

Grids are a life saver to start off with find a picture you like and draw a 1cm x 1cm grid on it then the same on your piece of drawing paper. Take it slow and draw one square at a time then it seems much easier because it's all broken down so you have less to focus on. x
