How to draw comics when you can’t actually draw.

<p>So, you can&rsquo;t draw and you&rsquo;re not funny, but you want to draw comics.</p> <p>Well, great news: You don&rsquo;t have to be able to draw, nor be particularly funny in order to draw comics.</p> <p>Here&rsquo;s how:</p> <h1>A Pen.</h1> <p>First of all you&rsquo;re going to need a pen. You know what? You don&rsquo;t need a pen. Just as long as you&rsquo;ve got something that makes a mark. A pencil, a crayon, a marker, some charcoal, a Biro, a fountain pen, a paint covered brush, a paint covered finger (preferably your own) or a highlighter, or an airbrush, or some blood (okay maybe not blood), whatever you&rsquo;ve got lying around really, it doesn&rsquo;t matter, just pick something you like using.</p> <p>(For me, it&rsquo;s an 0.4mm felt-tip pen, but Y<em>ou do You</em>)</p> <h1>Some Paper</h1> <p><em>Or not paper.</em>&nbsp;Yeah, you can draw this on anything. Walls, whiteboards, the dusty rear windscreen of your friend&rsquo;s car, whatever is available to you. That said, I can highly recommend paper, historically it&rsquo;s proven to be pretty reliable.</p> <h1>Consistency equals quality.</h1> <p>So, once you&rsquo;ve got a pen and paper, (or whatever you&rsquo;ve gone with), I guess you better learn how to draw, right?</p> <p><em>ABSOLUTELY NOT.</em></p> <p>...because you already can.</p> <p>Here&rsquo;s the thing about art: Provided your drawings are all consistently the same level of coherency, then whatever you&rsquo;re creating will become your<em>&nbsp;style</em>, which means all your drawings are amazing, provided they&rsquo;re viewed within the context of your style.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@chazhutton/how-to-draw-comics-when-you-cant-actually-draw-dd0b8b684562"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
