That feeling when you have your fursona looking all nice in your head, but you can't draw worth a darn.

Practice 'till you faint! Then practice some more. Remember, everyone can learn to draw, so never give up!

Yeah, that's the only solution. I'm slightly procrastinating learning how to draw as I'm dealing with Boy Scouts, church, school, learning guitar, and all the time I spend on the internet. Sometimes I wish there were 48 hours in the day, so I could have time to dedicate to all my hobbies and likes. The best way to learn is just to copy stuff. Trace and freehand cartoon characters, nature, animals, faces, hands, people, and human anatomy, and eventually you start to develop the muscle memory and concepts and techniques of how to draw those on your own.

You're right on that, although side note: I'm sure you know this, but you can't claim anything you copy as your own, and you shouldn't post it anywhere without permission. Everyone knows that, though, so I'm sure I don't have to lecture you xD

Anywayyyy

Yeah just practise and copy and use references and improve!

I did that! Unfortunately, I'm still trying to find my "style" so I'm not quite comfortable with my art. I'm trying different things when I can.

I agree with everyone that practice makes perfect. but in the meantime, i could draw it. it wont be very good, but it should be enough to at least get it out of your head and onto paper.

Lots of people get artist's block. Inspiration and ideas don't always come easy.
"The coyote is a living, breathing allegory of Want. He is always hungry. He is always poor, out of luck, and friendless. The meanest creatures despise him. And even the fleas would dessert him for a velocipide."~Mark Twain
