@Aspirant_Fool@yakkoTDI It took me until only a few years ago to figure out what it was actually called, despite seeing it literally everywhere as a kid. I still don’t know where it originally came from.
Dog? Cat? Super hero? Look, if I drew an oval with four vertical lines going down, it was an animal. If the oval had two vertical lines going down and two horizontal lines sticking out, it was a person.
Any kind of futuristic flying thing. I loved drawing the Space 1999 ships. And jets, sleek and fast, like F16 Falcon. And low, fast sports cars that could really fly, like the Ferrari F1. Any wonder why I am an engineer today?
@Kyeh@tinamarie1974 A little bit, but not nearly as much as I used to. (Also, Ploof as a company is still around; they were bought by Cypress Trucking!)
@replicacobra although that GIF is not flower which is funny in itself, I said that I drew flowers you know like the plant with petals on it and Looney Toon characters ( Taz, Daffy, Elmer Fudd, etc)
Those little houses you’d make, the kind where you don’t lift the pencil off of the paper. A face out of the number 5. A bunch of lines going one way, then another bunch of lines at a different angle off of those lines and just keep going until I filled the area with all of these lines.
Yanno, I think maybe what I did would be considered doodling, not drawing.
I was pretty basic – horses were my go to. In my defense, I lived in an area surrounded by horse farms and Sea Biscuit was a local hero. I had no idea at the time that millions of other little girls were also drawing horses. What is up with that?!
F-14s, Trans Ams, Space Shuttles, and occasionally unicorns. Constantly and not super well. With some amateurish what I thought was beautiful scenery behind them. it was definitely the 80s
Airplanes, space-age Moon/Mars habitats, some portraiture (from photos).
My friend & I did some cartooning - a series of strips based on Evel Knievel with every one ending in a different spectacular crash.
Stick figures, and that is still my best work!
@andyw
Yeah I was gonna say the same lol
Rude pictures, badly rendered.
Cap gun.
Cars, without knowing a damn thing about them.
@brennyn came here to say this
@brennyn @tonylegrone yep
@brennyn Same. Little did I know I invented the Cybertruck in the '70’s.
@brennyn
@brennyn Though I loved the Ed Emberly books which taught you how to draw anything.
@brennyn @smyle We all did, Musk just has more resources.
@lisaviolet LOL!
Flowers in many colors
@Aspirant_Fool The Cool S! Memories…
@Aspirant_Fool @PooltoyWolf S?! I thought that was a stylized 8!
@Aspirant_Fool @yakkoTDI It took me until only a few years ago to figure out what it was actually called, despite seeing it literally everywhere as a kid. I still don’t know where it originally came from.
Tanks, Main battle type
Dog? Cat? Super hero? Look, if I drew an oval with four vertical lines going down, it was an animal. If the oval had two vertical lines going down and two horizontal lines sticking out, it was a person.
Dinosaurs, of course…
And space ships.
I am a child of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo mission Era.
Mehzes, endless f-ing mehzes
I drew and still draw cars
Dogs, cats, horses? Does nobody draw flies anymore?
@phendrick If you do, you might want to shower more often.
Princesses in beautiful ballgowns.
Ninjas, robots and naked stuff.
@ZeroCharisma lol naked stuff

Frogs
Mountains with happy trees
@heartny Bob? Is it really you? We’ve missed you!
@heartny @ybmuG
@ybmuG Thanks! Missed you too, but it’s good to be back.
/image draw an inside straight
Straws.
Fresh blood.
Not really. Cars and big rigs.
@SpyreFox
My youthful digits
Made cer-shaped blobbish objects
To my frustration
F1 cars in three dimensional perspective.
Rockets, airplanes, cars, roughly in that order.
@mehcuda67 dreams changing to reality. Luckily I grew out of drawing for fun before I got to pickup trucks.
Dogs driving ‘cool’ cars. Yes, Subaru stole my ideas!
Trucks and boats!
@PooltoyWolf What? No trains?!
@mehcuda67 I actually didn’t get into railroading until about 15 years ago!
@PooltoyWolf EDIT: Mom framed one of my trucks from about 1st grade.
@PooltoyWolf that is really good! I still do not have that level of artistic talent
@tinamarie1974 Thanks! I was accused of tracing a few times lol (it is not!)
@PooltoyWolf @tinamarie1974
That IS really good!
“Ploof Trucking Inc.”?
So do you still draw?
@Kyeh @tinamarie1974 A little bit, but not nearly as much as I used to. (Also, Ploof as a company is still around; they were bought by Cypress Trucking!)
@PooltoyWolf @tinamarie1974
I’ve never heard of that company - what a great name!
@Kyeh @PooltoyWolf @tinamarie1974
On top of the truck
And also reading backwards
I’d say it’s foolproof
@Kyeh @replicacobra @tinamarie1974 Ha!
Endless doodles of geometric shapes starting in the corner of the paper.
Flowers and looney toons characters
@Snshyn75
Loony character
Flower is a disney guy
Behold; I’ll show you
/giphy flower skunk bambi
@replicacobra @Snshyn75 Aaaww… this brings back memories. I went through a rabbit phase. My first was named… you guessed it… Thumper!
@replicacobra giphy epic fail!

As a kid I drew cars, now 60 years later, I draw cars
Dots.

@mike808 I’m hooked!
Side eyes with long eye lashes.

Honestly, I can’t draw worth a crap.
@lisaviolet Still, sounds pretty creative
Stick people, dogs and elephant butts
I was pretty basic – horses were my go to. In my defense, I lived in an area surrounded by horse farms and Sea Biscuit was a local hero. I had no idea at the time that millions of other little girls were also drawing horses. What is up with that?!
Flowers, cypress trees and swamps/waterways
Space ships (mostly from Star Trek) and airplanes. Later comic strip-style faces, which morphed into a shitty webcomic in college.
Attention to myself (intentionally or otherwise).
Jets of all kinds, tanks, some cars
Cars, submarines, jet planes, and ROCKETS! It was the 1960’s and we were going to the moon!
Single point perspective landscapes.
/giphy single-point-perspective
While the other girls in my class were drawing horses, I liked drawing motorcycles but I’ve always heard a different drummer
Cars, tanks, airplanes, spaceships. Battles between all of the above.
How did you miss every single one of those for the poll?
House with big windows, tree, sun, grass, flowers, car & stick family.
F-14s, Trans Ams, Space Shuttles, and occasionally unicorns. Constantly and not super well. With some amateurish what I thought was beautiful scenery behind them.
it was definitely the 80s 
Did a few animated series of flip page art on the edges of my high school textbooks. Most were pretty rudimentary, and all were a bit twisted.
Airplanes, space-age Moon/Mars habitats, some portraiture (from photos).
My friend & I did some cartooning - a series of strips based on Evel Knievel with every one ending in a different spectacular crash.
