>>12591645Maybe there was an assumption, but I wasn't specifically thinking about your avatar.
Most kids draw cartoon characters, animals, and other stuff they see. Many people still keep on doing it as adults, although not as often as kids do, and I believe most people are probably not that good at drawing.
I imagine a large number of people all around 4chan have made a few shitty pieces of "OC" (usually stick figures or Wojak edits, but sometimes also poorly drawn fanart of characters from something like Touhou).
Even if you've never made a drawing of yourself on MS Paint, it might be possible that you once drew a butterfly or a car. Maybe Bigu too. I imagine he might have a few sketches on his tablet that he'll never show us.
So-called "lolcows" might just be regular people who happen to be very confident in showing what they create, be they fanfics of old childrens' cartoons, or comics, etc., and I think anybody can become a "lolcow" if they promote their own creations heavily enough.
I might just be half-wrong, though.
