I can't draw today.
« on: January 27, 2012, 04:30:38 AM »
Ever had one of those days when you just cannot do ANYTHING you were supposed to be doing? I can't draw today. Simply don't feel it today ! And I have to work, so this is quite annoying. :stressed:


YOU LITTLE PIECE OF PAPER, WHY YOU... !! :enraged:


Anyways, what do you do when you feel like this? Just curious.

I know the feeling. I
Have 3d modeling and design classes, and I sometimes swear my inspiration leaves me when I need to work on those assignments.
Nothing I try at those times looks good.

My only advice is turn on some music and try to relax, trying to force the issue usually gets you nowhere.
Maybe look for inspiration in the style you were aiming for.

I feel dizzy today! I can't even walk around without falling over.

 I feel really useless some days!

I've felt like this for a long time unfortunately :[ I think I've drawn...2 things? In 6 months? It's really a shame because I don't lack for ideas, just motivation.

You and your silly drawings. I can't even start to draw, because of My Little Perfectionist.

But to get to the point, I should be doing some stuff for University course by sunday evening and I haven't even started yet. Most likely I'll have to pull an all-dayer on that one.

Ps. OP: if the paper is getting you mad, buy a wacom. That'll help :P

Yes!

Actually, that was me for most of this month. Stress, health and..well stress from outside things will do that to you :(

Hopefully things work out soon <3

If I could just peel myself away from the Hogwarts Beta access page and the F5 button for more than 5 minutes, I could actually get to working on the pose sketches for my Blackrose custom commission and work on the final stage roughs for the Princess Celestia and Luna Guards print!

RAR! Just open already, Beta! RARRR!!! XP

( edit )
Beta just opened! Answered the questions correctly, got my beta spot for March! This should be interesting!

Okay, NOW I can go attempt to draw. But first, CAFFEINE IS NEEDED!
