    Even if you aren't good at drawing or don't do it often, what tool do you like to use the most? Pencils, pens, markers, etc.

    Personally I rarely use color, so I'll mainly just draw using a pencil. And usually it would just be random little doodles. Razz I'm terrible at drawing, so I never really specifically attempt to draw something.

    When I do use color, I like colored pencils as markers can dry out easily.

    I never use paints or colored pencils, and what I use all depends on what I have at hand or what mood I'm in. Usually I use pens to make quick doodles and pencils to make those fun hour long drawings.

    I really only know how to draw badly looking stick people for the most part. I use a pencil to draw them and crayons to color them in.

    For me; it varies. Usually I tend to use pencil, pen & colored markers & colored pencils to complete a picture. But then a few year back I bought a tablet & started to draw using it. After I got my tablet; a few more years passed & the Wi U released with it's Art Academy application & the miiverse.. So I tend to draw more using both mediums. Depending on the desired outcome is what I tend to use the most; though there are times that I will resort back to drawing by using my tablet. ^^V

    I tend to use pencils for drawing. I did switch to 3H and 4H pencils for a while, because I thought HB pencils smudged too much, but then I ended up with the lines being too faint. Maybe I should try H or 2H next time!

    For colouring in, I'll just use whatever pencils or pens I have to hand Razz .

    I prefer to use a mechanical pencil for doodles (I never colour them), ink for hand art and Colors! 3D when I draw "real" drawings. I use GIMP or sometimes MS Paint to edit the drawings afterwards.

    It was Pencils for me, but I sadly stopped doing art some time ago... I did do a lot of doodles on Miiverse though... 

    Is Miiverse a tool?

    ^ Actually...I really never thought about it when I made this thread initially, but things like Miiverse and art software actually ARE tools you can use for drawing. If digital drawing counts, anyway, but still that does count.

    I rarely use Miiverse for drawing myself. In fact, the only drawing I've ever done on Miiverse was using stamps from 3D World. Razz

    that drawing:

    But I do know lots of people use Miiverse as a drawing tool. There are really some amazing drawings on there, I don't even know how people can draw them on the Wii U Gamepad honestly.

    Well yea of course digital art counts. I do a lot of digital art & have a bunch of miivese followers. Not as many as some artists do but I have a pretty good following though.. xp I'm only small time compared to some of the artists on the miiverse who can do what I consider "whoa" art there. x-x
