So, art is shaping out to be the career goal for me. With that said, I feel like posting some very old crapola. Why? Because when artistic opinions are concerned, I can honestly say I've earned some of the most effective constructive criticism here. You guys are artistic geniouses, what can I say?

No, seriously, I've always valued the opinions I've gotten here.

With that said, I'm going to be scanning in some newer things sometime today, and will continue to gradually post more and more, and one of my main goals is to improve as an artist. I'm nowhere near perfect, so please, when I post my new stuff, tear me a new one, I won't learn otherwise. But I want to get better, so if a favor isn't too much to ask, I'd like those commenting on my newer work to compare the old and let me know what I have been, thus far, too dense to not improve.

<--I'm literally redrawing this one, most of the flaws are painfully obvious.

<---Later I will be posting my updated version of this. It was Elara who gave me some badass advice her one eye, and I took it to heart and was quite pleased about the outcome.

Question, you wouldn't happen to be a fan of the WoW style of art, would you?

And no, I still haven't. Haha. Ima scan that one with a new one, so we can all laugh heartily at what would have been presented to you as my best at the time.

Someone likes anime! Haha... but by mentioning WoW, I take it you do other styles too?

I think all the pictures are pretty good, even the first one is very nice. But the third and last Inuyasha ones stand out quite a bit because of the shading. Definitely a good amount of "depth" there, so they don't look flat at all I'd say.

Is the second picture you? lol, looks like that way, or kind of like Tifa too.

I loves me some anime. Haha. And drawing it is still REALLY fun. UBER stress reliever too when I'm in a slump (Like I am now. ) I honestly, especially like drawing it when I don't want to spend too much time working on the line art and more time on a different medium, like actually inking the piece, painting, colored pencil techniques. Etc...

But I'll try to learn any new sort of style. A) Its fun, B) Drawing ANYTHING is practice, even if it's just goofing off and mimicking something. And C) I'm still a student, so as far as assignments are concerned, I'll be working in specific styles and whatnot just for the sake of learning something.

WoW, although I'm not a fan of the games, is a BEAUTIFUL style though. I love it.

Thanks for the compliment on the shading though. I had a difficult time with it at the time I actually drew them, so it means a lot to know I did something worthwhile.

With that, I present some more older stuff.

Had to draw my own hand for an assignment back in high school.





Sketchbook assignments back senior year. Had to draw a mythological creature, and a partially eaten apple...I ate it more than partially by "accident" so she let me slide. XD

I'll probably post more older shit when I find my other portfolios. I REALLY wanna post the re-working of the one Elara helped me with. That piece in particular helped me get into art school. The president of the school LOVED it...and actually pointed out that the one eye, from that perspective can be quite difficult. (The part I wouldn't have been able to come up with the solution, if not for Elara's suggestion.)

Yeah, I am fine with WoW-style art (I think the Night Elves look so cool)

My suggestion helped you get into art school? I feel all warm and fuzzy inside... and I need to go back in the threads and find the old thread where I gave this suggestion, lol.

But yes, post Jade! I can't wait to see and old and new version, it will be great!
