Hi! I am a 19 years old boy from Italy. I'm sorry for my bad english. I'm an hobbyist writer since I was 12 and an hobbyist drawer from 4 years. I am not talented, and I am not even somewhat close to a professional level, but I enjoy very much drawing and coloring. Yeah, you could be disappointed because a n00b like me subscribed in the website of an art magazine, but I don't have the pretension to be published, I just want to watch others' artworks and ask for advice. I can only draw manga-anime because I really liked them and I didn't learn how to draw in a more realistic style. I regret this decision: my knowledge in anathomy is full of gaps and some body positions are impossible for me. I really, REALLY love touhou and I think I'm drawing only touhou's fanart from a year. I regret this too. I can't separate me by certain schemes because of this and my inventiviness is somewhat reduced.
Speaking about writing, I like to write horror and fantasy novels, but in the last period I am writing only touhou's fanfictions. Yeah, it's a drug. I like roleplaying games, especially the pbf ones.
I hope to have a good time with you guys!

Hello! It's nice to see someone else who enjoys writing fanfiction. Don't put yourself down, I'm sure you're very talented. I struggle with anatomy too... I think everyone does, even people who have been drawing for a very long time, so don't worry.

I think everyone does, even people who have been drawing for a very long time, so don't worry. Thank you, but I'm literally surrounded by people who draw difficult perspectives of bodies without making an effort. I'm really frustrated because of this. Do you enjoy writing only music based fanfictions or do you write also manga-anime based ones? I'm interested to speak about them because I wrote a lot of FFs in the last period (mainly as background stories for characters in RPGs) but I have never compared myself with other fanfictions writers.

Ah I see... Maybe they just draw so much that they're used to it... or they use really good references. But anyway, don't be frustrated. If you keep practising you'll only get better and better. I've only written fanfiction based on music before. I prefer to write alternate universe fics, so the characters usually aren't in a band like the people they are based on. I merely use their name/likeness and certain elements of their personalities, and then base my characterisations on them, whilst placing them in completely different settings. I have thought about writing fics based on manga/anime before, but I kind of don't want to be subconsciously influenced by the characters' original universe, so I've stayed away from it so far. Maybe one day I'll attempt it just for fun though.
