This is where the message goes!

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.

Kaiju Defence Force: Engineer Corps

We all knew it would end this way - we just didn't realize we'd put up such a good fight. Kaiju attacks, once rare and utterly horrifying, have all but become commonplace. Every aspect of our lives, from our housing, our transportation, - hell, even the food we eat - revolves around the fact that multiple times a week, our very existence is threatened by these great hulking beasts that emerge from the depths of our oceans.

Living with the constant threat of Kaiju attacks introduces a plethora of problems that must be solved in order for a society to survive, let alone thrive. Pick one, and attempt to address it in a design. Whether it is a direct defensive measure against the attacks, a means of navigating the city, or a system that helps ensure the citizens' needs are being met - everything's on the table, and the clock is ticking before the alarm sounds again.

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. I'm especially fond of this one for sketching and playing around with, and it's what I used for the notorious "Mr. Monkey Business" video from Lesson 0. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.

I would not recommend this for Drawabox - we use brush pens for filling in shadow shapes, and you do not need a pen this fancy for that. If you do purchase it, save it for drawing outside of the course.
