Am i the only one who gets embarrassed drawing guys?

!pin-needles Jul 6, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I dont know if im the only one with this issue...but i dont know whenever i draw guys i get embarrassed or i start to blush...especially when im practicing on the bodies!

I just i cant help it i get all giddy inside over my stupid drawings and i have to take breaks so i dont overwhelm myself lol
but yeah i enjoy drawing guys as much as girls but sometimes i cant help it.

I was just wondering if this applies to anyone else....
oh god i hope i dont sound like a creep haha

ahaha i get how you feel! my coach thought asked my friends if i was a lesbian because he saw how i drew so much girls(they werent even nude or anything lol)
but yeah im just a bit self-conscious with my drawings XI
sometimes when i drew in class i'd draw the body first to get the pose down(so basically naked minus the genetelia and nipples) and i remember some people would be all like "omg why is she naked? " or "You're gonna put clothes on her right??"

I've never had to be in a room with the nude models but I'd have assumed it's something that you just get used to/are focused on the art about?
Promise I'm not trying to be rude.

It's just what my instructor always said.

whenever i draw nude models I forget they're naked, i don't know about others but i tend to just view them as a shape rather than a person!

*RachBurns Jul 7, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

That would be the best way to do it.

Some reason I'm not able to make myself do that properly, at least yet.
And goodness knows that anyone coming into this room won't see it that way.

i've never been in a room with nude models either XD
nah didnt come off as rude no worries

but no haha i just get a bit embarrassed cause im just a little self-conscious of people cause i dont want to come across as some super-pervert or anything...cause seriously my coach thought i was a lesbian cause i drew mostly girls(i cant help it they're fun to draw haha)
This came up though cause my bf came home when i was practicing drawing a guy...who happened to be topless and i immediately minimized the program in fear of what my bf would say ahaha

Easy solution: Ask your boyfriend to model!

If he can sit still long enough, my husband can't, and there's only so many times I can draw 'Male in boxer shorts playing PS3'.

!pin-needles Jul 6, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

lol well i wouldnt want his family walking in on accident cause we all live in the same house ahaha
i think i can draw him playing the ps3 as well since he sits for a good period of time lol

Male in boxer shorts playing PS3 --- ROFLMAO!!

I know the feeling.

*RachBurns Jul 6, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Haha. Oh that sounds exactly what I'd do.
And it's hard to use a male model as reference because some people that may see it will cry 'you're being a terrible person for looking at that!' or something nonsensical like that.
It's like "I'm not looking at this cause I'm a perve! I'm trying to draw!" @@

!pin-needles Jul 6, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Thats exactly how i feel!!! ;.;
Good to know im not alone!
