I'm not artistic in the sense of being able to draw well. Those of you who can draw may find these instructions helpful.

Nice link O, thanks for sharing it with us. :)
My favorite thing to draw has always been cartoon characters.

Thanks for that link, O.

I can't draw very well myself...the only reason I passed mechanical drawing in high school was that the paper was taped down to the same desk that the ruler was mounted to. And the cat characters are very cute. I liked the comic with the tomcats and the flapper molly (no offense, molly, Wikipedia claims that is a name for female cats - please don't throw anything at me!).

Great link! Thanks! I have several books along the same lines. But some are better than others in explaining how to. Bookmarked!

The only drawing I can do is CAD drawings. I wish I could draw other things. I downloaded a bunch of cartooning tuts on youtube. It was no use, artistically I'm a turnip. But I still try to read everything and watch every tutorial I can get. Thanks.
