Like the cel shaded look. If I didn't have such a unsteady hand I'd do more cel shaded color.

Thankfully magical computer devices mean you don't really need to have a steady hand - you can just cheat!
Paper really needs an undo button...

You mean using the path tools? There's a study in patience too! ^_^

Ah yes....*nostalgiaizes over the how-to-draw-book this was in*
Your work was brilliant even then! Me? I look at my work from a year ago and I'm all "burn it!"

drcloud In reply to CatBatArt [2011-03-23 23:53:57 +0000 UTC]
Oh, but I feel that way about my stuff too! Sometimes it only takes a few days rather than a whole year :/
Anyway, I'm sure I can find plenty of pics I did at around the same time as this one that are utterly cringeworthy, so I guess this is just a nice exception or something.
Also, hurrah for nostalgia :3

I remember this pic, among many MANY others, on your website before you updated and removed a lot of them. Really cool to see it again. A lot of your work back then was as incredible as your more current work.

drcloud In reply to Kasey-N-Moore [2011-03-23 23:58:11 +0000 UTC]
I didn't exactly remove them, I just had to redo my site and got too lazy to upload them again XD;
It was always my intention to go back and put my older stuff up... well, the less embarrassingly bad pieces, anyway. Clearly that hasn't happened. I haven't updated it in ages either :/

I can't really take the credit for that. The book was made by a chap called Ben Krefta (he's on DA, [link] ), I just provided a few pics here and there :3

Yeah, apparently so long ago that I burned backups off to CD, not DVD. Ouch!
Still, I should be thankful it wasn't floppy disk...
