I know several asians (pardon if the term comes off as racist) who can't draw worth a flip... they still manage to pwn me elsewhere though... :laughing:

No. I think that just like in the US and everywhere else, some people are good and some people are bad at drawing xP Asian people don't necessarily just draw HOMFG GUD.
But I do like Asian art more and think it's better.

Dunno what 100+ is supposed to mean though ^o^;;;

It's an overgeneralization. Yes to those who can actually draw very well, but no because not all asians can draw well.

They have a +200 skill in inking, +20 in digital lineart, and a +300000000 for character design i think..

I need to re-read the class sheet..

Nah, not really. I think it all depends on their motivation. Since we all know that most asian kids have the super annoying parents that get mad of you get a B, they're naturally trained to work hard. That's why I think that if they truly strive to be artists, they get pretty good at it.

Most people can learn to draw just as well as Asians, and some Asians are horrible artists.

Well, my Asian friends don't draw too well, so no. O_o

I can draw, though... and my friend can, too, but she has some weird disability in drawing anything that is... "realistic" or deformed... eh... whatever. :|

It depends on the person

It depends on the person. :P Then again, it's just another one of those stereotypes our society has made that "Asians are perfect at everything and anything they do". Sometimes it is true, and sometimes it isn't. When I was a senior high school student in my art class, these two Asians who were at the top of their game kept criticizing their own work (in a joking way of course). But man, they were really good. o_O One of them was able to draw Sonic having a race with a freight train in less than five minutes flat, and it looked just like the real thing. :O_o: Me, well, I'm Caucasian, so I guess you could say I'm a bit envious of what other people can do based on that stereotype. =P My drawing skills suck compared to what others have done, Asian or not. xD
