I dislike doing backgrounds. >:[

@thelastgherkin I dislike failing when I try to draw stuff. Which is what I'm doing right now.

@flaxx No you're not. :( You're doing great! :D Remember, it's never failing, it's just practice!

@thelastgherkin Heh, when you're trying to draw Pinkie Pie and she ends up looking retarded, it kinda feels like failing. :P But thanks, I guess you're right. @theawesomepony asked me to draw Pinkie Pie and RD, so I'm trying to do that. May be finished with Pinkie Pie's lineart soon. I expect RD to be even worse, though. :P

@flaxx are u using the guide on drawing ponies from EQD?
Saturday, 21-May-11 19:33:49 UTC from web-
@delc17 Not right now. I've read through them all and everything though. Might have to go find them again.

@flaxx Nonsense, they'll be great. It helps motivate me to draw better by keeping the crummy ones around. On my desk right now I have this AWFUL Pinkie I drew without references to basically remind me not to draw bad.

@thelastgherkin Haha, sounds nice. :P And thanks. :)

@thelastgherkin Do more backgrounds until you love them! ;8D
Saturday, 21-May-11 19:30:15 UTC from web-
@retl "Do more backgrounds" Oh hey, that's what I'm doing "until you love them!" WHAT NO THEY SUCK
Saturday, 21-May-11 19:34:08 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin That's exactly how I feel about trying to make good lineart.
Saturday, 21-May-11 20:38:05 UTC from web-
@retl Oh, hush. I've seen your lineart. It's lovely.
Saturday, 21-May-11 20:45:48 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin I have lineart?
Saturday, 21-May-11 20:46:13 UTC from web-
@retl Derp. You mean the pre-ink lineart no-one ever gets to see, don't you?
Saturday, 21-May-11 20:48:40 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin: Nope. I meant stuff like http://is.gd/L2MVsh It tends to look awful to me somehow, like it's all wrong.

@retl Looks pretty good to me! Do you work on a tablet or do pencils first?
Saturday, 21-May-11 21:06:07 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin: Tablet. I can do OK with pencils/pen, but I just can't seem to make a mental connect after I scan it in to keep going.
Saturday, 21-May-11 21:18:21 UTC from gwibber -
@thelastgherkin: Also, thanks. x3 I appreciate the compliment. :3
Saturday, 21-May-11 21:19:50 UTC from gwibber-
@retl No problem! :) I'm the opposite; I usually can't draw with a tablet unless I've got pencils to work with. But man, shut up! You've got talent, stop worrying about things and just revel in it.
Saturday, 21-May-11 21:27:22 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin: Yay talent! I can't stop thinking about it though, since I always want it to be better and prettier. X3 But right, just drawing a lot of things tends to make good things happen from time to time, so that's cool. :3
Saturday, 21-May-11 21:36:13 UTC from gwibber-
@retl Drawing gets better and prettier the more you do it! Evolution, right there. For instance, I look back at my first Pony Comic now and I'm like YEEEEUUK
Saturday, 21-May-11 21:40:32 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin I hope so. I'm trying my hoof at drawing via the pen tool in PS and I keep being tempted to trace first rather than eye-ballin. I did find an old tablet laying around and tried that. Needless to say, I can't find the tablet anymore. Oh well, back to the pen tool...

@lurkingbrony Honestly, all it takes is perseverance and practice. Also, and @flaxx may like to see this too, good guides help: http://preview.tinyurl.com/4y4l9ye

@thelastgherkin That's great! I'm totally favoriting that! Thanks a lot! :D @odin Valhalla awaits us! *Miserable attempt at war cry*
