Chinatsu in the pseudo-yuri pseudo-comedy series Yuruyuri is worthy of mention, at least on the topic of anti-artistic characters. In episode 6 she shows that her art is on the level of Yuu Kobayashi's.

Where is Edward Elric and Mephisto!? They're both quite horrible at drawing! Anime hyper

The people who draw manga and anime, as a general rule, are decent artists.

Forget anime characters who draw, what about the TERRIBAD art behind Sazae, which-for God only knows what reason-is constantly #1 in the ratings lately.

I guess it is like South Park, right? Not in content, but in the fact that people like it despite the art.

Should be noted that Rukia's drawing skills run in her family. Bakuya also has terrible artistic sense but it's even funnier in his case since he's always so serious and cool.

Himeko's drawings are bad, but Roman's stuff is pretty awful too. She honestly thinks she's a great artist, though, and it doesn't help that her manga actually got serialized once. The stories themselves are terrible too.

Lol, as soon as I saw the title of this List I knew Rukia would be on it Anime hyper But I'm surprised Sakaki is on it. From Azumanga Daioh, the terrible artist that come to mind is actually Chiyo-chan. I can't stop thinking about her terrible rendition of a panda Anime hyper

Yeah but for some reason his art is actually a little bit more "elegant", though I'm saying that loosely. Anime hyper

I'm so glad I practice my drawing. I'd be horrified if it looked anything like these. XP

In regards to the previous poll about motormouths, I'm surprised Dotta from Sorcerer Hunters didn't get on that list. Man that girl talks up a storm (well, during next episode previews in the TV series and during one scene in the OVA anyway).

It only just counts as an anime (1 OVA covering the first few chapters of the manga) but Yuushin from Hiyokoi is a pretty bad artist. Although he's probably better than me ...

If you haven't read the manga, it's a nice slice-of-life. There is a similar feel at times to both Kimi ni Todoke and Toradora due to the setup, but it's much calmer and less-angsty than either.

And Hiyorin is one of the cutest characters I've ever seen!

Kiri from Beauty Pop was missing. She's a genius hairstylist, but she can't draw to save her life.
