I wish any of my players would make art of my game, but no one has really bothered in my DM career :(
Drawing art of my campaigns was how I actually got into drawing - it’s never too late to start.
That's true! I am actually starting like that, since shitty drawings are better than nothing here!
I found DnD was a phenomenal vehicle for learning to draw. In the early days when you start drawing, the most important things to progress are (in approximate order of importance)
- To draw a lot.
- To draw regularly.
- To spend time looking at art you like, to study it - so you can try and work on making your art more like it.
- To have friends look at your work and give you constructive feedback.
One of the hardest things with drawing a lot, and regularly, is having inspiration for material for "things to draw" - and DnD provides this in spades - regular new events that make for dynamic imagery that you can try to capture week-on-week... as well as a group of invested friends who want to look at your art.
When I started playing 4e, I started drawing pictures of the characters each week, and we went from this:
To this, in about a year:
This is the most effort someone has bothered to put in to show me something in a long, long time. Thank you. I'll do my best.
