Most stuff with a reference I can draw in some capacity, might take a long time, or need to be simplified. Backgrounds I still struggle with just because I'm not used to it yet. Cars I definitely could not do free hand in any way.
If there was a good reason I don't think there is much I wouldn't draw aside from some real messed up shit.
I won't draw anything really graphic sexually, I'm not big on drawing nudity in general. I tend to not draw a whole lot of little knick knacky things in environments too because of time constraints, although I wish I could since it'd add alot of depth to the characters. Maybe as I get faster I can work up to that. I also avoid drawing crowds, lol! And exterior city shots are a nightmare XD Exterior shots in general are not my forte! Zenchav1 starts out with mostly exterior city shots and I didn't really get a good grasp on doing BGs for it until the end of chapter 5 so it's kinda painful to look at now, lol XD
There's really nothing I wouldn't draw? As long as I've got a good reference, I'm fine. Imo, it seems like a bad idea to limit yourself as an artist because something's too difficult to draw (if it makes you uncomfortable to draw, thats a different story!) Really, there's only like one or two nsfw-related things I wouldn't draw, particularly because they squick me.
Things I DON'T like to draw...front views of faces, I have such bad symmetry.
I'm the type of person who usually 'tries' to go beyond their limit (and fail miserably) so there really isn't much themes I wouldn't draw. I wouldn't really want to draw something that involves sexual violence and extreme violence. Tbh, I'm fine with drawing gore and sex separately but definitely not together. Errrk.
But in terms of actual skill sets, I am definitely limited by my inability to draw complicated machinery and old intricate architecture. While I do want to draw such things, I often find myself unable to do so because tbh, I don't really practice it that much.
There's a bunch of stuff I can't draw. Motorcycles, for example. I'm also not the greatest at drawing huge robots, or people kissing, or that impossible camera angle of a person's face from below.
But give me enough time to find a good photo-reference for it, and I can make something that doesn't look half-bad, and learn some things in the process.
As for what I won't draw, the list is mostly - explicit pornography, extreme gore/extreme violence*, most types of bodily waste (no illustrated poop jokes here XD).
*) My comic contains both violence and blood, but I have no interest in drawing super-detailed epictions of wounds or internal organs. It's very, very unsettling to me, and I usually don't read comics that contain gore either.
I don't like to limit myself on the grounds of what I think I can't draw. If I don't know how to draw it yet, then I'll just learn and practice until I can.
As for what I won't draw, sexually explicit content is probably the main one. I can and have drawn it, but I just don't enjoy it. I'm not a big fan of very detailed gore either. Still, there might be circumstances where I would draw them anyway, depending on the circumstances and the exact nature of the content.
I could draw most stuffs as long as I have some good reference for it. Except if that said reference is not of the same camera angle that I want to draw then I'm pretty much screwed...
Stuffs I won't draw: excessive porn/sex scenes (especially when sensitive parts are showing), excessive blood, gore, any politically or religiously influenced subjects that might cause war and violence, anything that goes against my own principles and beliefs, and yaoi...
Backgrounds, mostly backgrounds
It really difficult for to decide on how detailed the setting is going to be because I really can't help to put in a lot of work in to a signal building and there's a lot more that I have to do. I also love architecture so when I do work on buildings I sike myself out thinking that it doesn't look that good so I work really slow on it.
and then there's hands... but thats because we see them all the time and we perceive them to look better than they are while drawing
I will draw almost anything, but there ARE some things I don't think I'll ever draw. Although, you never know, you can't read the future.
The first thing I won't draw is hentai or porno. I just don't feel comfortable drawing the naked parts, but I won't judge those who do. I just... can't.
The second thing I can't draw is realistic art. I'd rather draw toons or manga (although i'm still trying to draw manga)
I don't draw the porns anymore (used to get asked for it a lot via commissions) it makes the significant other uncomfortable and I was never into it anyway (was probably drawing every thing wrong too since I actually have any interest to go looking it up either), I just needed the money.
Also not allowed to draw twincest (even if it's clean), because they are a twin and it makes them really uncomfortable.
Not that they dictate what I can and cannot draw, I just don't like making them uncomfortable.
I'm willing to learn how to draw anything, but I'm having trouble drawing animals, some backgrounds, and foliage, but I'm getting better.
As for what I'll never draw, that would be anything NSFW or vulgar like language. I'm trying to keep my age range low, so that anyone can show it to anyone without being offended or put off.
I'm open to a lot of things I like to believe that sky is the limit with creativity so I won't say there is nothing I COULD not draw. Altough I may need to learn some things like Mecha, I realy have no experience with that also, colored environments are a problem for me right now, I can draw them but i'm never happy with the result.
When it comes to what I WOULD NOT draw well it's Yaoi and BL pretty much. I have nothing against it, it's just my sexuality gives me certain things that are unpleasant for me to look at.
