Description I pity this poor dude. Every time I draw him he comes out looking nasty.

In all honesty, I'm actually not very happy with the way this one came out...for multiple reasons.

1. I rushed. This was a birthday present for ~xxxfallenskyxxx and I had about five days to do this from scratch, because I was a lazy asshole and decided to start it at the last minute.

2. Usually I'm exceedingly strict when it comes to proportions and I don't sketch at all from the beginning. This time, I simply eyed everything, which is it looks quite odd in some places.

3. BIG mistake: my sketch was still a little vague when I first started coloring and I decided to leave my pencil marks and do the lineart last instead of first. The end result was that I can still see pencil lines underneath some of the light colors...FML.

4. I used a completely different coloring style and strategy as opposed to what I normally do. Didn't necessarily come out badly, but it's quite different than Soren's coloring job was. Almost more watercolor-ish than Copics normally are.

Thanks! I personally think he looks a little wonky, but the coloring is one of my better attempts

He looks awsome! (yes, i'm defending your work again) And don't worry, I'm a procrastinator too. (grins)
I like how it looks and the detail you put in his clothes. Yay!

Fantaseee. It's so good to see you.
How are you my friend?

I'm active on dA again, for the time being. (though I still can't draw very well, that much hasn't changed).

Is that copic markers I see? I don't think I'll ever understand how people colour so nicely on paper. I always ruin everything I try to colour traditionally...

fe-fantasy93 In reply to Skyblufox [2010-08-15 06:22:03 +0000 UTC]

Sky! Gosh, it's been way too long since we've talked. I'm cruising pretty smoothly right now, how are your waters?

If you can't draw, I have no fingers....I must pay a visit to your gallery sometime soon, my dear, I think my sorry little heart has been deprived of your lovely artwork for far too long.

Is that the work of a MOUSE I see? I don't think I'll ever understand how people colour so nicely on the computer. I always ruin everything I try to color digitally....

I erred so many times while drawing this D: D: D:

Ah, thank goodness~ There's the Sora I remember! *basks in your radiance*
My waters are luke-warm and about four inches deep at the moment. Pretty smooth sailing, but not really making much progress in any direction...

Undue credit, I assure you. I've not progressed much nearly as much as you! You really are much too kind ^ // ^.

Touche, little one. In my defence, digital is much easier than traditional! I'll bet you wish you had an "undo" button on that pencil~

Practice makes progress! You'll be a top-notch illustrator yet, I know it.

Aww, but that's the Kevin I remember~ You're just as amazing as always

I must say that I thought I had beached for a while myself, but it seems it was just a temporary hindrance...life is chill at the moment~

M'dear, in the early years of drawing we all progress immensely. I've been drawing inconsistently for only two years now and while I have improved, there's no way I'm near your level by now. D:

The "undo" button is my eraser, of course~ However, it would be really useful to have some sort of removal device for Copics D: They're quite hard to handle properly.

As long as I learn how to apply the scientific process to my drawings - as in, learn to test only one new technique at a time - I might just progress beyond amateurism.
