Slice0Pie 815 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 (edited) What do you dislike about being an artist? I don't like it when people try to force me to draw stuff. Usually my friend want's me to draw his OC, and the thing is I already drew his OC, multiple times, and he kept messaging and messaging and messaging me, asking me to draw his OC. He stopped, thank god, but I just hate it when people try to force me to draw something I don't want to draw Another thing I hate is when people are rude when I post art, for example, when I was a beginner, people where like 'Oh my god! Um.....it's okay?" I mean, I know my art was bad when I first started, but just typing out rude things isn't the best thing to do -_- Anyways, what is your least favorite thing about being an artist?

LightningMana 146 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 Hmmmm yeah I'd have to say people who make me feel bad for having my own style that differs from their tastes. "It has to be LEGIT! Can't stray away from simplicity or do your own detail that strays away from fandoms." Um, no, just leave me alone please~ 3 Avatar designed by my beloved VinylShadow~ ~~~COMMISSIONS OPEN~~~ http://mlpforums.com/topic/102640-lightning-mana-custom-pony-figure-commissions/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odyssey 5,716 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 Getting anatomy wrong. I'm way too much of a perfectionist, so I have to draw a character about 5 times to get the anatomy correct. I also hate it when I post something different and all people want to see is the same thing over and over. Seriously, there's nothing wrong with change. -3- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparklingSquirrels 21,341 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 I wouldn't consider myself an artist, but I do draw things occasionally. My least favorite part is that I can only draw when I'm in the mood to, and sometimes that takes awhile, so I end up making my friends wait a long time for their pictures. ֍֎֍֎ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceestarz 5,764 October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 Yeah, I have to agree with the whole everybody wanting you to draw for them. For my art class last year I had to do a self portrait in colored pencils, and mine was really good. So this one chick pretty much expected me to do a portrait for her. In one weekend mind you, I'm like uh no... Also when people pretty much expect me to be able to draw whatever stupid thing they want me to on the spot. Oh and when I have a physical copy of the drawing, and people ask me if they can have it. -_- no, it's mine. Get out. My mom pulled the I have no money so the painting I'm starting next week is going to have to be my Christmas present to her. I was kinda annoyed cause it's gonna be a cherry blossom series painting and i kinda wanted it for my room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tameless 979 December 12, 2014 Share December 12, 2014 I usually hate when people criticize my art hurtfully. I can take criticism, but when it's harsh, it's un-bearable. Oh and when people say "You could of done better" gosh I hate that.. 1 Signature By: Kyoshi "There has never been a sadness that can't be cured by breakfast food." - Ron Swanson QuirkyUsername Makes Me Smile!

Thuja 3,659 December 12, 2014 Share December 12, 2014 Getting out there what I want to convey. Anatomy, I'm too much of a perfectionist at times. Knowing what to draw/write.

~Chaos~ 3,967 December 12, 2014 Share December 12, 2014 I hate artblock the most. Not being able to think of anything to draw, and when you do, not liking it and just stopping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
