What's it like for drawing?
I wish I could draw like that... are there any secrets to it?
Well, I learned the I’m bad at drawing :(
Any recommendations for learning to draw at the level depicted in this article?
I think the hard part is that you can't draw something that already exists
Just draw more. I recommend you go to Youtube, there are a ton of talented digital artists there, you can learn everything nowadays!
It’s the drawing bit that I don’t have much experience of haha
Challenge: Try and draw something that actually looks like something!
Seconded. As developers, we're familiar with a "feedback loop" e.g. with Test Driven Development. Write a Test (high-level description of feature), write Code that makes the Test work, repeat. Same thing with drawing: do a bunch of them, compare them to what you were expecting, repeat.Also: don't take it seriously. At all :) Just do a bunch of drawing and it's all good :)my IG <a href="https://www.instagram.com/johnlmitchell/" rel="nofoll
