Redirect to original
Description I've been wanting to do this for awhile, to make myself see how much I've improved.
I went through the very first pictures I put on DeviantArt on my old account. Most of them were dogs and cats, but I think this was the first human I ever really drew. (A little more than two years ago.) I decided to redraw it, even though everything about it was so horrible I had to change pretty much everything about it. I didn't use a ref, so there are some obvious anatomy errors in the newer one, but at least you can tell it is a person. I'm trying to stop relying on references so much.

Okay, so when I tell you my old art is bad. I mean, its BAD. REALLY BAD. EMBARRASSINGLY BAD.

Let this give hope to people who feel like they will never improve. <3

Art (c) me The first picture too, sadly.

I love improvement memes too
And its so nice to be able to re-draw something and see how much you've improved, especially if you feel like you're stuck. C:

Oh, you've improved soooo much!!!
It's amazing how far you've gotten in such a short amount of time!!!

And I LOVE how in your older drawing, what you did to aviod drawing hands and feet!
It seems like something I would do!

cybzilla In reply to Night-Lion [2011-09-25 15:57:22 +0000 UTC]

Yes, notice how I didn't cheat and hide the hands and feet in the newer one. XD

I'm not even sure how I improved this much, but what I really want to know is- if I got that much better in two years, what will my stuff look like two years from now? @o@

And thankyou.
It just takes a lot of practice.

Night-Lion In reply to cybzilla [2011-09-25 16:14:15 +0000 UTC]

Yes! I did!
In fact, you drew bare feet! Great job!

Oh yes! I'm sure you'll be a pro by then! Your art will be selling for millions!
Well... to be honest, I think you could do that right now!

You're most welcome!

cybzilla In reply to Night-Lion [2011-09-25 16:24:40 +0000 UTC]

I like drawing bare feet. They're easier than shoes I think. >o>

Oh man, I hope so. (Or at least have them selling for something.)
I still think I have a ways to go though, especially with backgrounds.
And ohmygosh thankyou for such kind words.

Night-Lion In reply to cybzilla [2011-09-25 16:37:07 +0000 UTC]

Really? I think both are hard... but I think bare feet are harder.

You're more then welcome!
