Is this drawing good?

Update: highest rated, that's a first! Thanks for all the support it means a lot!! Hey guys, I'm 13 and pretty new to drawing. I thought because I'm a jealous xbox fan I'll draw hawkmoon. I am depressed so might take a bit to finish as I've things on my mind etc It is nowhere near done and I'm procrastinating drawing the leaf design that really shows it is hawkmoon. I have recently bought new A3 pages to draw things on. The question is I'm moving schools due to bullying and they offer art and computer Science (programming in this case) and am able to do both, but should I do art? http://imgur.com/LnseLzW Thanks for any feedback! (I love drawing ) http://i.imgur.com/WiQOZfL.jpg This was my first proper drawing I guess? I have the finished shaded version lying around but CBA getting it :P [spoiler]I am getting you fall, Hawkmoon.[/spoiler]

    • Definitely don't go do art if you enjoy drawing. The art teachers are usually a big failure and the reason I say this is because I know them well. Art teachers have a habit of marking you based on their own criticism and styles, let's say you go to art class and you just want to master your drawing, sketching skills... The teacher could very well just get you to make collages, paper mâché sculptures and so on. You could very likely just be creating exactly what the teacher wants and no what you want... Art is about expression, going to learn some other artists expression can take you away from what you love, and how you express it. If I were you I would take a class that would help you in life, and practice your art as a hobby, learn how to draw in perspective. That's how you will master 3D drawing. You want the shading to make the pictures stand out. Use YouTube for lessons on how to draw "guns" then once you have followed the steps... Change the gun to look like a destiny gun...

      • Nice! Shading is pretty good. Definitely keep at it if you enjoy it. Art is a craft skill. The more you do it. The better you get. If you want some art bounties here they are: Go to the art store. Get charcoal pencils and charcoal paper. Ask the art store people. They will help you. Draw 100 circles Draw 100 triangles Draw 100 squares Then with different shading and perspective Draw 100 Spheres Draw 100 Pyramids Draw 100 cubes Hang a piece if cloth with folds in it. Draw it.

      • As stated, proportions need some tweaking and I feel like the barrel needs more detail or some shading. It looks unfinished compared to the detail in the rest of the gun. Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't it have a feather design etched into the barrel?

            • Coming from a long time sketch artist, you've got a great attention to detail and your shading is good but it could use a little work. You seem to have the same problem I ran into for awhile and that is proportions, Hawkmoon's handle seems a bit small but other than that the gun looks great. Keep practicing and check out that art class it could end up being great. Also you should look into Deviantart I think if you post their you'll get better constructive criticism. Good luck at your new school and with your drawing.

                  Never stop improving your craft. Don't ask me if it's "good". If you feel like you've finished a piece then it is finished to you. I'm sure someone around the world would buy that from you because of their personal taste.That said, NEVER STOP IMPROVING YOUR CRAFT. Learn from others and learn from experience.

                  • I will be honest, apart from everyone else who are probably trying to be nice. They are not good, they are not proportional to what they are supposed to be, shading is lacking. If you like drawing then you should take lessons and improve, learn techniques, learns about symmetry and proportions, draw a thousand faces and a million hands.

                    • I work as a professional sculptor and designer at a cartoon studio that does 3d work. I trained in college which was super important. This is good for 13, and shows promise and dedication. At this point, you'll want to start focusing on volumes and space. The best book I ever had that got me hooked was "How to draw comics the marvel way". http://www.amazon.ca/How-Draw-Comics-The-Marvel/dp/0671530771 It is an incredible book if you want to take drawing more seriously, or just want to make pretty pictures. Keep up the good work. If you want, I can share with you some of my stuff, just so you can see what the book helped me accomplish.
