I've been trying to draw recently. Nice to know that skill set hasn't evolved since 1st grade. One day soon I will draw a half-decent picture of my OC and it will be the fabulous.
im striving to do the same thing ^-^ to speed things up im just gonna use pencil and paper and try to get it done digitally by a pro for free it might take a while for me to get the skill let alone the equipment
but one day i hope to be really good at drawing ponies digitally
