I got a sketchbook for Christmas, so I tried drawing something. I started with a Hawaiian A321, but the woman on the tail is difficult to draw and I gave up on that temporarily, so I ended up drawing a ton of random stuff. It kind of looks like my brain; mostly planes, some countryballs, and some stuff in other languages, none of it very organized. 

Also if you look below the text that says "HAWAIIAN AIRLINES A321" you'll see an attempt at a 3D drawing of a 737-200 that looks more like a Me 262 combined with a CJ4.

I'm going to try drawing an Air China 747 next on a new sheet or maybe a 747SP of some Arab airline or something.

I'm really the only one posting on here at this point. 

Wow. The diversity of planes (and other things) you draw is amazing. Liveries too.
What kinds of reference do you use while drawing?

Just looking at a picture (normally a side view image as I am not very good at other perspectives yet) of whatever plane I feel like drawing.

Back to some less-advanced drawings :)

                                                           

I still can't draw proper space suits.

Here are some drawings I've been working on now that I have a little less schoolwork:

El Al 757, but I think I drew it a little too short.

Normal day in the Balkans (Oh I also just noticed I accidentally drew Serbia saying (Kosobo je Srbija, I mixed up my Б and В, that's embarrassing, although probably not bad for an American)

And (a bad photo that I don't feel like retaking of) my WIP DC-8

Here's what I think looks like an incandescent light bulb. Could have made the filament slightly better looking at it again..

I'm also working on making a Polandball-themed trailer skin for ETS2. I'm making each country (Or set for smaller ones, like the Baltic nations being on top of each other) separately in paint then adding them all on a trailer template in paint 3d because I don't really have any better program. I've got a lot of countries to do, and I'm working on the Baltics now (Not entirely finished).

Nice lightbulb @tajwo.

I think I prefer pencils...

           

      

I think it's better when there are shadows.

(never mind the text on the other side of the paper, I drew this on the back of a math assignment lol)

@NazalassaNice drawings!

Here's a low-quality Nepal I made for no reason. I wanted to draw some mountains in the background, but didn't really feel like it.

And a slightly better quality Belarus

I guess I am a little obsessed with polandball.

random pixel-countryballs.

Also: a WISP (work in slow progress) reimagining of the DY-100 space freighter from TOS

The background scenery looks kinda trash right now, but I'm sure i can improve it somehow

Myself submitting to Android Studio's cruel ways (the lime and white thingy is the Android Studio logo). The text is an extremely annoying error I was getting, which actually didn't have anything to do with Android Studio, although Studio was extremely unhelpful in resolving the error.

Not sure if it counts but I tried designing some simple flags. No real story behind them or anything.

Nice! I suppose you did them with a computer (given the perfectly uniform colors), so... what software did you use?

Nepal in notable as its the only none square flag.

Yes, hence it's "mouth" in polandball form; That's part of what I love about Nepal's flag. Ohio is also non-rectangular, but Nepal is the only one as far as national flags go. Tampa, Florida's flag is also weird, although I've never seen Tampa in a polandball comic before.

I also made this low effort dystopian/socialist Brazilian flag, not that I support any of that:

(Really, I was just inspired by some guy commenting something on r/vexilology that someone should make an 'evil Brazil' with an é instead of e to make it "order is progress", not "order and progress".)

So I tried sketching again

After seeing the CL-1201 concept, I thought 'why not make a conventionally shaped giant plane?

Shootdown of a H.XVII by a pair of P-80 Shooting Stars

should be obvious

What if Bell Textron made an ornithopter?
