Description
It's like an art timeline, only it focuses on my signature character. I felt... it needed to be done (and what better time than Christmas? I dunno why, but it feels like a good time to show her some love), and I thought it could be pretty cool since it does also serve as a partial timeline of how I have improved as an anime artist. (La la la~ back in the days when my art absolutely sucked. XD)Anyways... 1999 to the present. The file is very LARGE, and I appologize, but please full view. ^^ Otherwise... how can you read it? Meh, maybe someone will find this interesting.
It also includes Kaiba, Chandra, and Tempest. Et. Cetera.
Ellana/Mitsuko (c) me. Me dangit!
Kaiba (c) me. (Except I stole the name from Yu-Gi-Oh!)
Nook (c) - used with permission.
Chandra (c) me.
Tempest/Skyites (c) me.
alleyWAY, Shooting Star Prophecy, and Ma. Gi. En. (c) me. Roar!
Dragonball Z/GT/Saiyans (c) Akira Toriyama, Toei Animation, all them...
Mentions:
Animorphs (c) K.A. Applegate (right...?)

You've come a long way!

Wow, I found this very amusing. Your style changed ALOT indeed. It was interesting to see how she changed and what you wrote. I think I may eventually do something like this.

This is cool! I love watching artist's work grow and change in timelines like this.
I love your art from 2003, especially. It's very cool, different.

2002 looked like it was a very good time for you. I have a character like that named Nina who bloomed from the zelda series.

That was really cool! *___* You've improved tons, and it's really interesting to see how your character changed ^^ Yet somehow, she still retains some of her original look... it's cool ^^
It's so neat how you have her in so many different "universes" too. :0
I liked it a lot <3

Very nicely done, it was great reading through this...
This piece has really inspired me to create a timeline similar but dealing with my art progressing instead of focusing around a character!!!

Yeah, that's where I got the idea from.

Really interesting,
I generally love seeing the evolution of an artist's work (And actually had an hour long discussion about it today), so this entertained me quite a bit.

Wow...this is very cool! ^^ I've always wondered kind of how Ellana got started as a character. Seems like you've had her for a long time. Your drawing has really improved, as well. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Wow Ellana's old XD *is bricked and ran over by a ice cream truck* your stye changed and you got better at markers XD maybe I should be one of these XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, she's old. But not as old as her age actually is. XD (ie. in her original fandom, though she appeared from ages 7 and grew up to be about 20-something when I quit writing, she actually shoulda been Vegeta's age, who was middle-aged when she appeared as a 7-year-old.
My style did change a lot, but I was originally -trying- to mimic the DBZ style whereas now it's a TMM/shoujo/my own style.
Meh, a lot of the early stuff is colored pencils.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wow anti-ageing stuff XD I need some XD not that I'm old at all
that's good XD I need to work harder XD XDI mimic people on DA's drawing style to improve on the good points XD before it was TMM
Traditional hates me... TT__TT

OMG... this is the coolest deviation I've probably seen all year! Had a blast reading it and seeing the "evolution" of Ellana. I really gotta do the same for Shiro... I really shouldn't have thrown away all of my drawings that I didn't like, ne?
Hehe, you kept the name "Baka-Ki" as well~ I <3 Kaiba!
Again, incredibly interesting work, I definately enjoyed reading it.

Fanboy. XD *shot* j/k, j/k...
OMGhowcouldyouthrowShiroaway? D: Bad nephie, bad. u_u;;
You seriously should though. Shiro ish awesome. Yesh.
Yeah, I did keep "Baka-Ki". I'm honestly surprised that "Khaki" stuck for Kakashi.
You enjoyed reading that crap that was me typing randomly? XD Yay~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm going through a folder of old drawings I haven't touched... for at least 2-3 years... and I kept more than I thought I did. Not enough for a year-to-year comparison like you did, but to be able to mostly show Shiro's evolution.
Yeah, Khaki stuck so much that I don't call him by anything else now o.0
And yes, for some reason I enjoyed your crap.. but NOT cause I'm a fanboy
But yeah, when I get everything together and scanned, I'll see if I can copy your idea.
