Description I really liked the idea of this exercise but I'm finding that I work on it less and less. The more I work on it, the more I'm kinda dissapointed with how extreme I went with some of these expressions and sorta regret it. It makes me want to start over but I keep poking at this one. Eh whatever.

I've been poking around with this since Nov 2009. I think that's a long time. Then again, there's stuff that I've worked on longer that still ain't done.

The original: (Thanks *SamBlob !) [link]

Also, someone help explain to me what bereft means? I looked it up in a dictionary but I'm still kinda confused at it's connotation (however you spell that, you see I ain't great with words lol). There's a sketch for irritated but I didn't like it so I blocked it out. I intended to do every girl but seeing how long this one is taking, I might not. XD

HAHA!! Brooklyn Rage WIN!! XDD

Isn't the point of this to practice your expressions? So I think it's good if you go over the top^^ That way you can soften them in actual pictures ^^

SpaceRaider [2011-04-13 22:25:27 +0000 UTC]

Extreme over expressions? NONSENSE. You should always have fun drawing expressions. Even if you're not happy with the way an expression turns out, its just a way of understanding your own character better. Some expressions won't always fit with a character anyway, that really depends on the character's personality. And besides, you're a great artist, and way better than I am. I think the expressions you drew here, even if they were from a long while back, they look fantastic!

Really nice! They are really well done. They all communicate the expression perfectly!!!

For bereft see here: [link]
The last definition may be the most appropriated if you ask me.

I always thought Bereft meant, to be without.. or denied something? So .. I -think- it should be some look of tragic loss... I think XD. I'm going by the meanings I've read in books and games lol.

also

lol @ Brooklyn Rage XD

Yami: Joey, stop trying to turn 'Broolyn rage' into a catch-phrase, its never going to work.
