    Unfortunately I have none, they say when your a kid everyone has talents in something but I must be the exception. :mad: I'm not bitter I swear :p

    But anyway, I'd love to be able to draw.
    Some of my friends have amazing drawing abilities it's actually unbelievable to me how good they are.
    Over the last few years I have started looking at a lot of anime drawings. I don't watch any anime on TV or anything so am unclear as to where my interest comes from. But I could look at it for hours. There's something really amazing about anime to me at least.

    I'd be willing to bet a lot of boardsies are talented.
    In fact I'm sure of it. :D
    Boards talent :cool::P

    I'd love to see peoples drawings if they're good artists too :)
    I'd love to draw a picture of Jesus in an arm wrestling contest with the devil. Jesus would be losing and in pain while the devil is grinning.
    Then in the background you'd see an opened coffin.
    In the darkness you'd then see a set of eyes with a concealed knife ready to slice the back of the devils neck.

    Don't know if it's a talent, but I've a freakishly good memory.

    I'm pretty good at visualising things - how images should look/be presented.

    Otherwise. No. :(

    Teddy: You can learn to draw. OK, you might not be amazing, but you'd definitely be able to draw some things properly.

    Woo Man that's like soooo amazing :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    The knife is concealed you say?
    I mean the hand is holding it towards the body. You can't make out this person clearly as they blend with the darkness.

    You know, the knife is being held pointing towards the shoulder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    Woo Man that's like soooo amazing :D
    :D True!

    It's just every time I see it I go off on a Breaking Bad tangent.

    I have skills, not sure if they could be considered talents.

    Wait till you hear this then,

    I do it by talking.
    I was one of the few to make the great leap from the computer screen to face to face interaction.

    Slightly, ever so slightly :p

    Ok talents, lets see...

    I can do cart wheels and handstands, I can walk a considerable distance on my hands too.... My son who is 20 yrs younger than me can't :D

    I still get a kick from climbing tree's and scaling walls, I'm guessing in these softer times these are a talent?.

    I can shimmy up a lamp post and rope climb :cool:

    Any good?.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,288 ✭✭✭TheUsual


    Not a talent as such, but I have an amazing everlasting pen.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,255 ✭✭✭✭Esoteric_


    I can sing. I don't think I'm particularly good, I think I'm average really, but I get paid to do it and people buy my CD occasionally, so I guess I'm fairly all right in that aspect.

    I attempt to play piano and guitar.

    I've got great aim with a bow and arrow. :D

    I'm good with my mouth. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,293 ✭✭✭1ZRed


    I can draw. I've heard a fair few people say how they'd love to be able to draw. I wonder why but I suppose I take it for granted. My art teacher hated me for it because I was too bored in his class to actually work at it :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    I can crush heads

    Ah not true Teddy, you do have the knack of starting inane crap threads like this one!

    Have what? I am confuse :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,893 ✭✭✭Canis Lupus


    I'd give a testicle to be able to draw. I struggle with a stick man. I have so many things I'd love to just doodle floating around in my head but translating them to paper is an absolute no hoper.

    As for talents I have.... I can make the sound of a water drop echo... You know, useful for annoying teachers.... not so functional now that I'm 31....

    That's actually quite true! :D When I was in 6th class and I was doing art classes outside of school, I was in with the 3rd year group and I loved it :P

    Doubt that would benefit 1ZRed much ;)

    You're not the only one, believe me. :( I reckon the whole "everyone's good at something" line is just spun to try and make kids feel better about themselves.

    I've been told I'm a good writer but I don't see it myself. I could never be patient enough to sit down and write a novel or anything; I'd be able to write five pages of complete shíte before either getting bored or losing confidence. I'm rubbish at sport, am hopeless at cooking, can't sing, dance or act, have tried (and failed) at playing instruments. I was a top student in secondary school but seemed to lose any sort of academic ability in third level.

    So yeah..........not exactly brimming with talents. I can do some useless shít though, like naming the American states in alphabetical order and naming all the capital cities of the world.

    This is very werid!
    I was either in 5th or 6th class too, and was doing art outside of school with junior cert age people. Having a bit of creative fun :D
    I'm actually not bad at modeling. I must get back into that over the Xmas. Great fun.
