I was rooting about in the loft and found some old pics I did when I was younger - a bit smudged and crumpled now though....
Porsche Carrera GT
Axl Rose
An unfinished Aston
And one of my earlier drawings - a very crumpled Countach

did you draw them from life or copy from photographs?

Thanks
Photo's Mr Smith - I'm far too slow to do it any other way.
I'd like to get some pencils and have another go, but it's finding time these days.
NB - should have altered the WB on the camera, as the paper is actually white and they look a bit better viewed properly, but you get the idea.

Mine are pretty shit, but I got pleasure from doing them.

I can't but my wife can - she studied textile & design at Glasgow School of Art and as a result we have lots of her designs around the house.
My children seem to have inherited her artistic skills as well so it will be interesting to see how they develop over the years.

Nothing shit about those at all al.
Don't think I'll turn to creative writing though

Nothing wrong there Cynical-al. If you get pleasure from it then that's all that counts.
I love drawing as my job, and nervous to be having my first book published at the end of this year on drawing tutorials. I am currently working on a bike related tutorial and working on a secret watercolour project that will appeal to bike fans.
There's some nice work on this thread, were is redthunder? His STW art threads were fun.

I always wish I could draw. A guy in my class at secondary school, used to draw the most lifelike, detailed and deviant pictures of whichever teacher we had at the time, and he was my hero.

used to make extra cash airbrusing stuff like HR geiger babies onto biker jackets, so I'm fairly handy. just need to find the right bike frame to play with to create a custom painted masterpiece.

I never really tried that hard in the past to do really well either. I keep having big gaps away from drawing and then come back again. Just started again in November. I'm making a real effort to keep it up as well. Really enjoying the attempt this time round.
I'd be interested in hearing about your book catflees.
Here's a couple of my favourites from my current batch

one of my bicycles which is currently running a fat front is going to have a new back end fitted to enable it to take a fat rear tyre, thus making it an abomination to cycle kind and the the equivalent of frankenstiens monster, hence "frankenfat" in the home bodgers lingo
It will then have a custom paint paint job by me to show little hairy monsters leaving big footprints behind, much like a fat bike does.
there we go

Samuri, I like your style. I also like the "hover bikes of the future" in the 2nd picture.
I used to draw with a pen and pencil but most of my drawing nowadays tends to be on a computer.

McMoonter, that first picture is awesome!

In the last year I have started to dabble. Coincidentally I was starting a new one today. Now, I can't draw, I know that. I also can't paint, but been going to a sort of artist drop in session about twice a month and like others here, well I'm enjoying it.
Anyway, here is today's sketching out for my next effort
8 Jan 2012 15:23 by gary_foulger, on FlickrI'd be interested if anyone can work out who it is (without looking at other stuff on my Flick pages!) as that will tell me if I'm on the right track!
Oh, sorry for the pic quality. Quick iPhone snap in fading light

I was lucky enough to have a couple of hours of lectures / class from Trevor Flynn, the man behind Sketchmob and drawingatwork:

One of the most inspirational times ever being taught. The bloke is incredible. It might be bit 'pro' for some but good stuff.

I always wish I could draw. A guy in my class at secondary school, used to draw the most lifelike, detailed and deviant pictures of whichever teacher we had at the time, and he was my heroThis is how I felt, but I had to give it a go and was pleased. My siblings all did art (Fine Art, Car Design and Photography) whereas I was pushed towards science as I got better grades than them. My BIL in particular has also done some amazing work which he has hung up casually around the house, drawings I could look at forever. That is my goal!...but I want to become technically perfect first.
Creative writing was genuinely odd - daunting (you'd read your work out to the class) cathartic, fun...impossible to be objective about tho.
Fred I look forward to seeing your speaker ideas...

McMoonter, that first picture is awesome!
Thanks!
Drawing for me should be as much about mood as likeness.

Had to choose between Fine Art or Sports Science degrees, chose sport, so this is the only art I've produced since 1983 - done 3 years ago to try to impress a female....
