Help Me Draw Naked People

Project 2012-10-18 02:33:11 +1300

The short version: I'm a freelance illustrator and writer! It's awesome but doesn't pay that well! I need to get better at drawing! There's a course on that could help, and your pledges can help me afford it!

The long(ish) version, with less exclamation marks: I've been drawing ever since I was little enough to cry about colouring over the lines, and lately I've been getting a bit more serious about it (drawing, not crying.) I've been doing freelance illustration (for actual money!) in my spare time and I also came third in the AUT Creative Writing Graphic Fiction section, for my short comic Torchlight. I'm wanting to take the whole "comics" thing a bit further, but need to improve my figure drawing along the way. The only way to improve your figure drawing is to draw a bunch of naked people, and the Waikato Society of Arts has a "Drawing the Human Body" course coming up in a bit that could help. Membership to the Society is $45 and the course is $116, not including materials and the naked-people fee. I'd like to take the course, but I'm a bit skint.

This Is What A Horrible Drawing Of You Might Look Like

This Is How You Might Look If I Draw You Doing Something Awesome

This Is What Amazing Facts About Skywhales Looks Like

This Is A Portrait Of Michael Laws


In the semi-unlikely event of raising more than I need in pledges, I'll put the extra money towards art materials, more courses, and petrol to get up to Auckland to see cool comic people. Cheers!

oh and if you are wondering why the image is a picture of Batman playing the guitar, well that's just a thing I painted one time, you should probably ignore it

Cool! My project met its funding. Thanks to each and every pledge-person so far. If you wanted an Awesome or Horrible drawing but hadn't pledged yet, don't despair! There are still plenty left before the project hits its deadline in around 30 hours. Feel free to snap them all up - I'll be busy fulfilling them for a bit, but it will be fun. 

Cheers!
