Anyone with an artist block or idea please post your idea or problem. That way some of us can do our hobbies again.

Thanks biggrin

Sort of. I think I used all my brain petrol on my signature image. Now, anything I try to do to improve it fails horribly. I'll probably set it down for a while and work on something else.

Trying a sketch of another of my characters, only I can't seem to get his head right. It is pissing me off.

Otherwise, I really have no other personal projects that I feel compelled to work on, though I do have ideas and a WIP.

I totally understand your head situation. I don't know if this will help but you can always try drawing the head over and over (unless you've already' ve done that sorry sweatdrop ) it might become easier to draw the head again.

I guess I've experienced this. Eventually I started sketching again..

I've actually had this problem loads within writing. I'm just coming out of a period where I couldn't sit down and read, which is rare for me because I love reading!

Well, the problem is more with the head's proportion to the body.

And apparently I can't center anything anymore, either, because my work in class today came out all crappy.

I think I'mma veer away from people for a while and try, like, landscapes or something.

Ok so i know this doesn't really follow the topic but do you ever draw the eyes at the start and they look good until your done, then they look crooked or ones too big/small. I guess that is my art block gonk

when you do eyes they have to be aligned perfectly same shape and size for them to look good
