My 12 yo drew this on her iPad and I really wanted to share it with reddit because I’m so proud.

As her parent I’m freakin amazed. She said she traced the gun and the car because she’s not good at drawing those, but everything else is her.

I want to encourage her as much as possible but this is sooo far from my field of, well anything, I don’t know the best way.

Is there anyway I can support her besides general encouragement?

Is it animated and reddit video players being dumb or is it a typo, cus this is cool and if its animated I wanna see it

No not animated sorry. That’s me not really understanding the ‘medium’ I think

Aah I see, she's very skilled nonetheless

Holy shit! That’s fucking awesome! A 12 year old draw better anatomy than me, wtf!

She’s not finished yet either, I was just so blown away by it, I had to share it. She’d been begging me to get this paid app on her iPad for ages, then a few days after she got it she showed me this.

Was it procreate, that's what Ive been on since I started, totally worth it

It was. Most of the stuff she asks for was games, so I just wrote it off as another game. Glad I looked into it

Yeah, my mom was questioning the title when I asked to buy it

Wow!! That's crazy good especially for a 12 year old. I'm really impressed by the expression and background. I would just say to keep encouraging her to make more art and experiment. When she becomes 13 if she wants she could have her own social media account too! Just if she does that encourage her to post but be there for her since sometimes people can be rude no matter how good someone's drawing is.

Tyvm that’s a good idea. Not that I have any idea what social media app would be good for this kind of thing. But I’m sure she’ll know
