Alright so I just discovered one thing recently. Like everybody else I tend to gather reference pictures, illustrations and whatnot, accross many topics. Then I realized that even tho I had a large folder full of mech/robot stuff, I wasnt remembering any of the designs really. So I started putting together plastic model…
I have/had a difficult time drawing things that weren't right in front of me aswell. Everyones hating on tracing but thats what I did to improve my drawing, and it worked great! :) I took pics online of people (naked:P) and started in photoshop drawing the line of action over them, then then rough perspective lines, then…

Even if his contribution isn't the same as a developer, he was the one who took a bunch of boring ass bussiness classes, while most of us had fun drawing shit and making cool animations. Guess what, we could all go to law school and make 300 bucks an hour. We all know we can do it. Do you see any of us running off to law…
