or the Importance of Drawing for CG?

A very simple but very crucial question posed by any wannabe 3D artist. Why do I need to do drawing if I am doing 3D? I can just model whatever I want.
This is one question that’s been asked for a very long time and one that i feel to rest in this post. So i hope you stay with me, as i share my experience and try to clear this out.
Firstly it all depends upon how you perceive yourselves to be in the future as an Animation artist (not necessary of any particular stream like modeler, animation, etc but contributing to the overall animation process). Like for example, if you want to grow up to become an Animation film maker, you might as well as start now itself as it will help in increasing your chances of becoming one well rounded artist.
Just visualize Drawing as grammar of a language called Animation. And as it is in animation is all about communicating visually, for that we need to know aspects of what makes a clear and great visual.
Learning to draw is about more than just creating visuals; it’s about understanding the building blocks like physics, line of action, strong staging directly from real life of those visuals and recreating that on-screen convincingly. You see the whole process of animation starts in the mind. Being able to draw well helps you visualize it clearly and put it down quickly on paper while it still fresh and also troubleshoot any problems at an early stage.
Drawing helps in building a visual library of how we communicate in our daily lives. This will be your very own reference library from where you’ll source and can come up with sincere and real animation artwork.
All in all you’ll miss out a crucial part of the art you are pursuing if you ignore Drawing, and your chances of getting of the game.
