Description Improving has been a lonely road for me.

I tried replicating my old styles.  They go from when I first started drawing humans here on DeviantART, all the way to now.  There were awkward in between stages of my old styles that lasted a week or two, so I didn't include those, but these are the styles that prevailed for a couple of months before I was able to really improve on them, though, I am starting to realize that there really wasn't much of a difference in between the third and fourth versions that I chose.  Also, I'm really upset I didn't pull off the 5th version very well, because my style was going in the right direction there, but then the sixth style happened and everything went very wrong.

I would've added the different shading styles too, but lol that's some high hoping with how much motivation I have right now.

[1]  [2]  [3]  [4]  [5]  [6]  [7]  [8]  [9]

So you probably saw me say at one point or another that I don't like how mature my style has become.  And yeah, I don't like it.  Well, I do, but I don't.  I like the more childish look...so I've been working more on the style below while I was away.  I might post a few things that I doodled, but idk, none of them are good.



The main thing I don't like about my style right now is the faces are no longer round and are sharper and more defined.  I mean, it's great for some characters, but idk...a childish style feels more like 'me'.  :/  Since my style has been on the childish side for much longer than the more mature.  But we'll see.

To be quite frank, none of what I just wrote has anything to do with the message in the drawing, save for the very first sentence.  That's something I don't feel like explaining.

Bro...it's time like this where I honestly wish I had the talent that you possess in drawing or in something as to be able to make your travels just as fun and (for a lack of better words since my brain is having a fart ) not as lonely as we have when we go out on drives together. I know it probably sounds like all empty words but I want you to know that they really are true words and I always can see how you feel through your art.

You're welcome bro. Remember I really really care for you and love you bro and I know I can't draw for shit (that's just a given) but that doesn't meant I can't support you throughout it all with all the other people who stand with you. (Wow that felt really redundant lol)

Perhaps you can make a style that combines the childishness of the old style and the new way you color and shade in the new style?

You could try making a mixture of your favourite styles? Experimenting with styles would also be fun though idk lol
