Default Re: How Do You Draw Decent Animals?

You probably won't be able to draw anything you want without having any visual clue. Rare are the people in this world that can draw very well from memory. Having any reference to base your drawings will definitely help you improving. You can start by doing small sketch based on illustrations (~5 minutes) - if you have a real animal at your house, it's even better. That will help you understand the anatomy and proportions. The more you practice, the more you can add time to your sketches. A good sketch takes for me at least 25-30 minutes, and a good drawing will take me a few hours.
