I can't draw buildings very well. I'm not that good with a ruler so any thing beyond sketching is no go for me. I've benn practicing but nothing good yet.

Ugh...buildings are terrible. Especially going over them in ink. Because every time I ink straight lines the pen bleeds or the line isn't thick enough or something like that...

Honestly, most anything is hard for me to draw, speaking outside of my web comic of course :P. But I am getting better, slowly. A few people have given me advice and I've been trying to draw and I finally drew something useable lol.
So from that useable thing (which is just a head of a character I'm creating), I'm finding it really difficult to draw it in other positions. I can't even visualize what the character would look like in other positions :S.
Oh and bodies :S.

I have difficulty drawing shoes and drawing any pose from behind.

Hands... easy
Guns... easy
Cars... moderately hard (takes patience and I require a reference pic but I actually did it: http://www.drunkduck.com/Vampire_Overlords/?p=48264 )
Scenery... moderately hard (I can draw only when I'm in the mood and in zen meditation mode)
Action poses... very hard (the perspective posture is what makes it hard for me to visualize)
Muscles... hard (because I don't do enough practice)

Basic stuff. Feet, hands, cars. Also clothes. I just assume everyone is wearing tight starched clothing because my clothes wrinkles always come out wrong.

I find this structure very hard to draw.
It's the Encounter Restaurant at LAX.
...I could do it, but takes a lot of time.

feet are difficult, after the ankle and the top of the foot it all seems to go to hell.
I really don't have problem with hands though. Every now and then a retarted hand leaks out, but for the most part its fairly easy.
Scenery is difficult for me in two ways. Streets and Cities, natural enviroments are fairly simple most of the time.
drawing from real life works 30% of the time for me, I get bogged by details and angles and shading...so I draw from my head.
All my problems don't seem to matter when Its an action scene, I love to draw action, and every thing just works.
Fun fact: spiderman comics helped me learn action details.

A tree.
Drawing a decent, believable, good-looking tree, in line.
Hardest thing ever.

Well... in my art class, I have a lot of trouble doing any type of shading, like shadowy areas on the face or what-not...
I'm a lot better at sculpting than I am at drawing.

Anyone here who complains about drawing decent hands has obviously never tried to draw realistic feet.
I'm having a lot of problems drawing swords, katanas and rapiers are easy but some of the huge medieval swords which my main character uses in my comic are giving me alot of trouble. As well as a scythe weilded by one of my villians.

well drawing from real life isn't that hard for me but drawing from my head is...
there are so many ideas in a such a perfect order that it becomes difficult to get them on paper... and in the end you get mad... and angry!!!!
ARRRGG!
I know what you mean! *sighs* I'm the same way.
I'm on hitatus while I redo one of my webcomics. Be sure to check it out when I'n done! :)

hands by far hands, and a nose that looks realistic, but hands i've got so pissed at drawing details on hands i just started the mediocre hands you now see in my comic, some times i try something different, but most times im too lazy to draw a good hand

Correct perspective between a character/object and backround... so tricky to get it to look natural.... so mind-bendingly frusteratingly difficult.... ugh... just thinking about it gives me a head ache.... Spending many tedious, agonizing hours..... on a single panel.... just because the perspective is not natural enough..... ARRG! :(
But you know... thats what I get for never bothering to draw backrounds, full body shots, and pretty much everything non-human till just 2 months ago I guess. :twisted:
Hands can be difficult aswell.... but I have much more trouble with perspective than proportions.... Hands just take a while to get right.... best to draw hands only when you are feeling patient.
Certain angles are rather difficult to get to look right.... like a semi-over head/over shoulder view.

For me, it's foreshortening.
Hands aren't too bad, faces aren't too bad, but perspective of foreshortening gives me a hell of a fight. I don't feel too bad about it though, because even the professors at my college have to really concentrate when foreshortening.
It's forcing yourself to not only think in complete 3D, but stick with an established look while doing so. Tough stuff.
