Kinda sorry but not really by sinisternoodles

So the people who got ych thingy, I'm sorry I need to get them done, but I'm a procrastinating bastard, and I have a bunch of scetches that I did for myself that I wanna finish first.

Anyways does anyone else do weird things when they draw?

  • I always stick my tongue out for some reason. I don't know why but I do
  • If I'm drawing a face I always make the same face that the character is making. Some of my irl friends said that they look at a mirror, but I just need to feel the same thing the character feels
  • I need to listen to music that will set the mood otherwise I'll delete the scetch and draw something that matches up with the song. It's a horrible habit of mine that I need to get over.
  • I will not get up from drawing unless I'm thirsty, hungry or my dogs are hungry anything else can wait.
  • I'm pretty sure I erase or press ctrl-z more than I actually draw
  • screw sleep!
  • I keep dropping my tablet pen!

    Of course I do weird things when I draw I do it most of the time

      It's really weird when people watch me draw, WHICH I HATE!

        Yes oh gosh i get so self conscious when people do that, that's why i like to sit in the back at school so nobody can see what I draw or write

          I'm home schooled so not many people see me draw, but we have a friend group that we go to and a lot of people watch me, but becuase I get really self conscious and it turns into a really stupid drawing.

    I have a habbit of starting sketches, but not finishing them. Kinda' likeyour hing with the music, I don't want to work on a sketch unless I'm feeling the same mood that is being portrayed.

    Lol I definitely do the second one and third one. And I definitely don’t sleep some nights so heck sleep!

    I don't do that (along with a lot of things on this list, sorry) but I understand completely. Generally music is the thing that does that for me though.

    *I need to listen to music that will set the mood otherwise I'll delete the scetch and draw something that matches up with the song. It's a horrible habit of mine that I need to get over. *
    As I said, I do the same thing, but not to the point where I need it to be super perfect or I'll delete it. So you should definitely get over that. Stop erasing sketches, just let it be my dude. You are going to have drawings you don't like in order to get better ones afterward. Just gotta accept that. Nothing wrong with re-doing sketches but to be honest I usually go with my first sketch lmao, no matter how bad it looks. Even if it's a commission. As long as I don't neglect it because I don't like the sketch and I put effort into it anyway I'll be happy with it.

    I will not get up from drawing unless I'm thirsty, hungry or my dogs are hungry anything else can wait.
    Honestly same. I might take a break for dinner though.

    screw sleep!
    ^ Preach it ^

    *I keep dropping my tablet pen! *
    I don't really drop mine very often but my workspace is a pigsty so I lose it on a monthly basis more times than I can count on my fingers and toes..

    As for my own weird habits..

    I ted to procrastinate at random??
    On one character I will skip sleep in order to finish the drawing immediately no breaks for anything whatsoever, and then on another character I'll get a sketch done and procrastinate for weeks, sometimes so long I give up. And the character could have such a simple design and I'd still do it!!

      OH, and many artists use construction lines for sketches right? all I do is a circle for the head and the rest is the guide for the lineart. No other construction lines. Just a circle for the head.

      The funny thing is that I get really exited over the scetch that I'm doing and I'm usually on youtube and some song that I like pops up and then I'm like "Pffft! I won't erase the scetch just because this song is sad..."
      but then I do! Exept when I'm doing trades and stuff unless the scetch looks bad, It'll usually stay the same.
