So I decided to go to some Life Drawing classes to improve my artwork. Pretty interesting, I didn't realize just how many different typed of bodies there could be. I've decided to stick to life drawing for a while and hopefully I will get better at drawing.

So today, I had some spare time so I decided to draw one of my OC's in different poses. I thought I was doing a great job until I looked at the pictures side-by-side and realized that they didn't look the same.
Different art style, different hair, different types of eyes...the list goes on

When my scanner is fixed I'll scan them so you have a better view of what I'm talking about.

Gotta work on making my art consistent, so more practice and more detailed look at the characters and trying to keep to one style.

Inspiration...

I've been having artist block for that last few weeks and can't think about anything to draw. So lately I went back to the basics: things that people have thought about drawing.

The seven deadly sins
demons & Angels
Fantasy creatures
Anime Characters
Old OC Characters

and I thought, how can I put a twist on them.

So here I am thinking about how to put a twist on some basic ideas...and I'm stuck.

Well I hope inspiration strikes soon, as for now I'll keep thinking up ideas.

So, today I was looking at all the different images on DA, and I was getting a little depressed, since there are some AMAZING pictures out there. When I saw a picture some one did ten years ago and they re-drew it and put them side by side, and all I could think was, wow. If they drew like that and can draw like this now, then so can I.

So I went looking for others peoples drawings as well, so here are some links to them.

If any one else wants to see more just type in Draw this again in the search box and you'll have a whole list.

My first attempt at Lineart, I'm actually pretty proud of it.

I chose Sailor Moon because I remeber watching the show as a kid, I still remember the first time I watch the Japanese sub version, all I could think was "This is meant for kids!!" Then I realized that I watched the censored American version. XD

So I'm going to attempt more Lineart and work my way up to colouring since I don't trust myself to colour properly yet.

Also thinking of joining the DA Contest, its going to be great.

So my first journal.

*Jumps up and down in excitement*

I've just started drawing digitally. (Friend lent me their tablet). trying too learn how to use it properly, thank you Youtube and all those people who put tutorials online.

My Goals when it comes to art is to become better at drawing a more mature style, a bit more realistic and not as anime-ish (is that even a word??).

I enjoy working with all mediums, especially charcoal and pastels (so much fun).

I always like to be critique in how to make my art better.

So...not much to say about myself.
