I really need to dig out my old scketchbooks. I was actually quite the artist in school, and had my own style that the teacher hated because it just wasnt the standard way of doing it, but it worked really well. I never started out with the familiar shapes that others did, I would draw faint guidelines like a little mark for the head top, bottom then the other parts. Draw the top part of the arm, for it was the straightest then the bottom then add definition, ect. It drove my teacher CRAZY watching me draw and many times she had me try the standard way but it never turned out as nice. But then I lost my memories and my old skill. I only know about it because I used to keep an art journal with notes on how I did what I did. Strangely, although I tried a few times, I could not rediscover my old style as an adult.
