Description
This was the mandatory Sollux doodle I felt I needed to do after drawing Aradia. ;A; That and because Gemini is my sign, my freakishly fitting sign, might I add.Related content

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words. Looking back now I know there's a lot I need to work on (and I need to draw Sollux more). Also it's a learning curve for sure but you should stick with it! The more practice you get in the better, no matter how you feel about what you're digital work looks like at first just keep going. I believe in you! c:

Thank you so muuuch, that gives me strenght to not give up on trying to draw digital, which now most of the time just happens a lot. I see something doesn't go the way I want and instead of keep trying, I give up and quickly go back to sketch on paper.
Just some habits that have to stop
Thank you again ^^ and no problem, to me doesn't look like it needs more work, just looks absolutely perfect to my eyes. But to the eyes of the maker, I know and fully understand, we want to constantly get better.

You've got a wonderful style and sense of line. I know how much easier it can be to draw on paper and how frustrating it is to look at something you've been working on only to not be satisfied with it. Start small, work as much as you can with digital but switch back and forth if you get frustrated. Celebrate the little victories whether it is something like the pose for a sketch turning out the way you want, or the line work coming out smoothly. Anything positive you can focus on to keep you going!
Thank you very much! I know what you mean. We seem to be our own worst critics, which isn't all bad. Always striving to get better and enjoying the things that come out right along the way! c:

Indeed it's true, we can be our own worst critics and get to harsh on ourselves when It's not needed at all to be so negative about everything. I forget sometimes the little things, like the fact I get so proud when I achieve the detailing work I so desired or the sketch I imagined exactly. Which saddens me, we always forget about that. At least that's how I feel about myself, I'm too negative.
And thank you sooo much for your kind words, I'll try my best to work on it, I sometimes forget to achieve something greater you need to start from the bottom and not on top. So of course I get frustrated too much, I always wish to do something greater without knowing exactly first what Β the program and techinique I'm using and at least get to know it a little better instead of just jumping to over detailed digital drawing that will end up or not getting to the point I desired which leaves me either frustrated or sad.
Thank yooou again c: !

Believe me it's taken a long time for me to even be able to draw like I do now and I still strive to improve but seriously all it takes is practice, I'm sure that if you continue to draw and practice you'll find yourself improving even faster. Besides, as long as your art makes you happy that' all that matters. c:
He totally is. ;D I feel that I will be drawing him a lot more from now on.

I agree, practice is definately the best way to improve. And well as for being happy with my art, I usually am until I go back and look at it, then I see flaws....
What would you do if you met him?
And I look forward to seeing more pictures of him from you!

DeadMenace In reply to Roseblossom9029 [2012-10-14 02:12:05 +0000 UTC]
I know the feeling but as long as you see those flaws and keep drawing you'll see fewer and fewer as you improve!
Hmmm, that's a tough question. I've never really thought about it but it's quite and interesting idea. I hate to compare my personality to his but we're both pretty similar as far as being contradictory goes...I realize how little sense that makes. ;A; I feel like if I were meeting Sollux I would just make witty sarcastic comments to counteract his own. XD What about you?
And thank you again, I hope I don't disappoint you. c:

Roseblossom9029 In reply to DeadMenace [2012-10-14 02:17:45 +0000 UTC]
I guess so! Thank you for the encouragement!
Comparing his personality to mine, we're pretty different. I'm not really sure how well I'd get along with him, it really depends on what point in his timeline I meet him I think!
You probably won't!

DeadMenace In reply to Roseblossom9029 [2012-10-15 02:13:27 +0000 UTC]
My pleasure,I hope you keep drawing and striving for improvement.
Hmm, I never thought of that, depending on what point in the timeline could definitely make a big difference. Aw well opposites attract I'm sure you two would get along.
And thank you. ;A;
