Having trouble coming up with something to draw? No worries - while you'll eventually learn how to start from a tiny seed of a thought and gradually nurture it into a complex concept to explore through design and illustration, it's perfectly fine not to be there just yet.
For now though, here's an idea that might interest you.
Fantasy Ice Cream Cart
Fantasy worlds are great. They've got magic, they've got swords, they've got quests and everything in between. But you know what they don't have?
ICE CREAM! What an oversight! What a travesty! But that's okay, you're here now, and you can fix it. Figure out how one could reasonably operate a cute little ice cream cart in a world without refrigerators. You can certainly use magic, but the more over-engineered the solution, the better!
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
