Gingerbreadman Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) I know most of you can write but can you draw? Would you be able to illustrate a book? Post your drawings here Edited June 8, 2011 by Gingerbreadman Quote
poppyshake Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 No, and I'd love to be able to. My hubby draws and paints well and is hoping to illustrate a book written by a family member .. it's early days though and it'll probably come to nothing. I love illustrated books, I think I have at least three illustrated versions of 'Alice in Wonderland' .. I can't resist them. Quote
bunnybooks Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 This is one of my doodles from chobits, not a great one but I can't be messing around with my scanner at this time of night I could pop some others on here at another time if you like, I mainly draw anime/manga characters but I also enjoy pencil sketching and am now experimenting with painting and landcapes How about you?

pickle Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 I do a fair amount of drawing mostly pen and ink sold some stuff recently which was a forst, don't have as much time as I would like but want to do more. Quote
Kell Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 My artwork is entirely restricted to cross stitch and blackwork designing and stitching. Quote
Gingerbreadman Posted June 11, 2011 Author Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) Thats great bunnybooks Here's one I did on my iPod using a paint app Here's some I drew when I was like 12(They're kinda hard to see) Edited June 11, 2011 by Gingerbreadman Quote
Gingerbreadman Posted June 11, 2011 Author Posted June 11, 2011 You should add more pics bunnybooks I had to post this separate because I could post ant more pics :/ Quote
bunnybooks Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 (edited) Thats really good I've got the art academy game and you can get some pretty amazing results, I can't transfer them to a computer though [ This is one of my rare non manga still life sketches This is another one of my attempts at chi from chobits This is supposed to be Tamaki from Ouran high school host club Am upset because I had a load of my favourite sketches that my husband was keeping safe that he has actually lost Edited June 12, 2011 by bunnybooks Quote
bunnybooks Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 This is a picture of chi from chobits that my husband drew for me before we were married Quote

I used to only draw from my imagination as a child whereas now I really only draw from life or books. Quote
Chrissy Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 Have you seen the Finlay Cowan books? He has written (and drawn) some great pocket reference books for the budding artist. Quote
Gingerbreadman Posted June 12, 2011 Author Posted June 12, 2011 @bunnybooks I would usally draw straight from the book. It's hard to draw from imagination because it would be harder to know where you went wrong. @Chrissy No I haven't seen any of his books but I'll probley google him. Quote
pickle Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 This is the one I sold most recently its slightly surreal bit I really loved it and hated to sell it. Quote
bunnybooks Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 That's really good pickle, wish I could draw like that Quote
Nollaig Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 Pickle that's incredible! I'd love to be able to do that. I do a lot of drawing, art is pretty much taking over my life at the moment. Rather than posting pictures here, considering I've some 200 pieces, it's just easier to link to my gallery: http://nollaig.deviantart.com/ It's mostly Lion King fanart and comics, with some other animated movies and cartoons thrown in, digital portraits of people, stuff like that. All utterly, utterly pointless. Quote
Gingerbreadman Posted June 13, 2011 Author Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Thats brilliant pickle! They're really good aswell Nolliag Edited June 13, 2011 by Gingerbreadman Quote
BookGeek20 Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 (edited) I love to draw when I have the time, one of my best pieces is here: It was a bit difficult taking photos of it with my laptop camera, but you get the idea as I do not have a scanner! Edited July 2, 2011 by BookGeek20 Quote
pickle Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 I love that character in Beauty one of my favourites I managed to get time to ohoto a 3 of my other drawings this weekend as I am worried that if I seel them then I won't have any record of them and as they are straight out of my imagination then I won't ever be able to reproduce them. so here you go not the best photographs but al I could do with my phone this weekend Quote
Kell Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 This is the one I sold most recently its slightly surreal bit I really loved it and hated to sell it. I adore this one! If I ever write a book, I wat you to do the cover art for it! Quote
anisia Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 I love that character in Beauty one of my favourites I managed to get time to ohoto a 3 of my other drawings this weekend as I am worried that if I seel them then I won't have any record of them and as they are straight out of my imagination then I won't ever be able to reproduce them. so here you go not the best photographs but al I could do with my phone this weekend I love this one, so detailed!

AbielleRose Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 Your work is so beautiful, Pickle! I do mostly cartoony drawings like the one below. Quote
