Something I learned in my engineering classes... it's a little more than practice to do a circle freehanded.

 

To draw a circle, you'll want to hold the pencil perpendicular to the surface, and lock your wrist. Use your shoulder for the motion. Just do these a lot and make adjustments. Start slow, and get used to the feeling. Then speed it up. Muscle memory will eventually take over and you will have near perfect circles in no time. And yeah... being fast does make a difference. Especially if you have unsteady  hands.

To draw an ellipse... a circle in perspective. Same method. but you are pivoting on your elbow. Keep doing these at varying angles and watch which way your ellipses lean, and which ones are more perfect. You will need to learn how to turn the paper to adjust for that tilt. That is just a mechanical uniqueness to everyone's arms, and coordination. Example... I tend to need a 40-45 degree adjustment

 

if... accuracy does matter... or you are drawing something that is machined... you might just want to pick up some circle templates. They aren't cheap though...

Oh...yeah.  I think I have very "unsteady hands".  I shall try your method next time I need a circle.  I can neither find circle template nor own enough money to purchase them, so that's out of the question for me.  Thank you very much!  Engineering was pretty hard for me (I took a week-long session on it), also because I'm not all that great with the type of balance or accuracy required for the more hands-on-materials.

I know you think I must be dark, mysterious, and handsome.  Well, guess what?  You're right~

I am a strange-looking goat within a pentagonal star.  Huh.  Never thought of it that way.

Draw a light + sign with equal sides, that will give you a good basis for your circumference, then draw your circle around it. 

It often turns into this strange, deformed egg or malfunctioning oval...Or a really strange looking circle...thanks for the advice, though!  Maybe I need more practice with this method .

Strong, yet wise.

Powerful, but strong.

Feel the kawaii-ness~!

I can sketch.  I can (sorta) paint.  I can make comics.  I can write fanfiction.  I can get a research/best paper award.  I can draw still life.  I can mix and match different colours of paint to make a nice result.  I CANNOT DRAW A CIRCLE.  I've tried searching online.  I've tried a gazillion methods.  I've practiced (trust me-a lot).  HOW DO I DRAW A NICE, GOOD Ol' CIRCLE?  

I could really use some help.  I know there are plenty of circle generators I can use when drawing with my tablet, but I would like to be able to do it myself.  Even when I'm doing traditional art, my circles always tend to look a bit...misshapen.  Or deformed.  Whichever you prefer.  It's very strange, considering how well I can sketch and all of that more complicated stuff.  I mean-I can do some of the harder art techniques if I try, but I cannot do the basics of drawing a circle.  Help?

My amazingness breaks the scale.  Infinite narcissism.  

I have one eye, one mechanical eye, one pair of shades, one nose, and one frown(ing at you).

You have done much wrong in your life.  I am here to avenge them.

I admit, I don't really know what I am.  A pony?  A timberwolf?  A horse with a pencil in his mouth?  Who knows?

I remember good days when you used to look at me, admire me, adore me.  

Before those stupid e-Books and iPhones.  Now they think I'm not eco-friendly.

I wish there was thunder is the background.  Oh...I wish, I wish!

I'm cute.  And you know it.

Imma smart.  Imma real smart.  Imma bookpony.  Ohhhh~yeah.

That was really funny, ya know?

TBH, kind of.  But-in a good way.  What good would the Queen of Changelings be if she weren't creepy and scary?

Someone who thinks calling myself Queen is conceited (QuickLime is not allowed to reply).

Perhaps.

Someone who can actually spell my name.

Neon turquoise is the new black.  I'm just leading a new fad~

Someone who likes correct grammar.

Quite simple.

Metal - I listen to and have a passion for metal music. My OC is named after my favorite song by my favorite band. (Moonshield by In Flames) I'm also a musician who hopes to start or join a metal band.

Brony - I am, of course, a brony.

ATL - Atlanta, Georgia. While I don't actually live in Atlanta (I live about two hours south in a small rural town), I am very much in love with the city and hopefully when I'm finished with college I can start my career there. Also I'm a huge fan of the Atlanta Falcons.

Thus, MetalBronyATL.

Ooo...I love metal music as well.  Espcially djent and progressive.  I like the Bulb Project by Periphery.  

Hmmm...Noe hasn't replied for a while.  Noe?

Probably not.

Someone who will send me to the moon~

Yes, indeed.

Quillhart?  Whom has returned ...

Ha!  It's all in good fun, though.

Someone who like ponies.
