What do you "Enjoy" drawing?

For discussions, announcements, non-technical questions and anything else comics-related or otherwise that doesn't fit in any of the other categories.

People. Hair. Clothes.

Basically, I love anything organic, and despise anything mechanical or technical.

I'm a big fan of giant robots. Or robots in general. I really enjoy blood spatter too, but I don't get much chance to use it...

And of course anything where I get to use a lens flare is just awesome.

I like drawing faeries. I suppose that fits under the human form category. But no matter how hard I try to draw people normal, half the time they end up with pointy ears and wings.

I like drawing confident people. Smirking. And evil. Evil is cool.

Nice curves, like a neck going into a shoulder going into a breast (with the arm obscured) or something like that. A shoulder itself, etc. It's rare to get it just right, but when I do, that's the best. 100%. Yeah.

You know, i should work on this.

Ooh, also snuggling. Drawing the snuggle is the awesome. Especially? platonic snuggling. Makes me happy. :)

I like the subtle differences between body builds that people have. I never used to be able to get it right, but now I can and do it whenever I can. I try to draw my guys both muscular and not, with broad shoulder or thin and slouching postures or straight backed and that sort of thing. Women come in all shapes and sizes and I like drawing them as such. Not all rail thin women with no hips. A good-sized backside is a thing of beauty.

So when I design a new character for my strip or whatever, I purposefully try to give each of them their own shape.

I love drawing Mauser C-96.

I'll have the same thanks, Sue.

Also I don't mind the chance to quickly scribble on the blackboard. Did it last week to explain the 'ghost gun' and the 'periscope rifle' used in Gallipoli with a goofy digger and a goofy Turk in a fez looking at each other over a little biddy trench.

Drew some cool little gastropods when one discussion diverged into shells found on the beach...dunno how we got onto that.

Yup. Definately eyes... though I don't draw them first. I like to make heavily decorated eyes just as a form of meditation or something. All those nice curves. Just forget about everything and let my hand move whatever way it prefers.

Women. I love drawing women. Especially really curvy ones. Maybe I just like drawing curves. Yeah, I think that's it, really.

Why do guys want to draw ugly guys? I mean, girls like to draw pretty girls, so... why? Why?

Cute girls, full-body pictures, eyes, exaggerated expressions. And feet, don't forget about the feet. They might not be realistic looking, but they're still so much fun to draw.

I absolutely hate drawing guns and cars, mainly since I have very little real-life experience with either one. Also, detailed backgrounds that require lots of ruler use.

I never use rulers anymore, ever. Feels too much like drafting and I hated drafting classes.

No rulers for me, no-siree-bob.
