Blockade

I dunno, with me, artist's block can only be directly related to writer's block, as I have a hard time drawing something that's 'just there'. I have a hard time making something WITHOUT giving it personality and character, so if I don't have a plot or something, I get stuck.

But, that doesn't help you. :-)

The main trick, I would suppose, is to not think of it as something to draw. Think of something to create instead. Like a character, or a new object of sorts or something. Don't worry about drawing it until you feel comfortable with it. Then it should come naturally. Whatever 'it' is.

Get a comic book and start drawing what you see in it.

She is merely asking a question regarding something all artists go through.

Here's an idea. Take a bunch of your favorite games, and start making one big joined ultimate game. Draw Windows XP in its true form. (Just an idea...) Draw what you see outside, then mess around with colors and shading. Draw a scene from the Titanic. Draw...gah...all I can think of is my brother playing the 1st person shooter game next to me...I'll give some more drawing ideas later.


Hehe, new forum...new signature. HEhehehehehehe

I suck at dragons, even though my harddrive is cluttered full of pictures of them >.<
Tyff, I'm sure they're fine. You should see mine... plus I kinda have an artists block...

I want to draw Wild Angel, black fur, gold hair, black pants, blue shirt, blue eyes, holding a broad sword. I can draw swords really good (maybe because I own one?) but I can't really draw furrys well...

Have you tried drawing the Beau, the future football star (if he doesn't become a programmer) or JeffK, the l33tmeister or John, the Shadow creature that strikes terror in CStrike or that Ax Guy who's king of the dance pad?

I've already seen you make a drawing of the Rock Ryu so I didn't suggest him.

I can try to give you a slight sketch sometime... but here is some stuff to feed the imagination. ^-^

Black fur, aqua blue eyes, muscular build, gold wavy hair... (natural appearance)
Black leather pants, and a gold tank top, or a red half-sleeve, whatever works ^-^ holding a broadsword down against the ground.... paralell (I can't remember how to spell it, grr)
