Description  Redraw of this bad boy from all the way back in 2013! 



I don't consider myself to be a good artist.

Like, don't get me wrong, though, I have accepted that I can draw a decently good-looking piece of art. But I mean I'm not a 'good artist' because I feel like I don't follow all the conventions that are expected of a 'good artist'. I don't practice as much as I should, I don't tend to stick to one style, I don't watch as many tutorials as I probably should and I can't draw as fast as I probably should and I know I could do better. 

I do know color theory, some basic to advanced anatomy and taught myself how values work, but if someone would ask me if I could teach them I would have no idea where to begin, because I'm just doing what feels good and hopefully it produces a pretty picture in the end.

So yeah, I'd like to become a good artist one day - even though I'm not going as fast as I should probably. In the meantime however, I like to fix up these old artworks I made years ago, and I gotta say, it is really satisfying to see how far I've come and how much I've learned.

We're all gonna get there, man. Someday sooner or later, we're all gonna get there.

Honestly I don't mind promoting it, I'm not a really big creator, I've only got three watchers, but I don't mind!

Awesome piece! I wouldn't worry about not being a 'proper' artist; personally, I think that all artists are proper artists, regardless of how they go about it. For instance, the average five-year old isn't going to have formal education, or use references, or all the things we expect of ourselves, but they're still artists - if you draw, and enjoy drawing, you're locked in for life, dude! It's when you choose to stop drawing that the rot sets in.


So, I think what I'm saying is, don't be hard on yourself - even if you don't think you're a proper artist, I do. And my opinion counts, because I'm a proper artist.


EDIT: That is some serious style development from 2013. You have my respect, sir!

Thank you! Very well said

Yeah I do hope to do this professionally and for a living at some point in my life, so I think learning some of the basic art conventions like a 'proper artist' would be quite helpful actually. Thing is I learn better by observing irl and taking tips and tricks I learned from traditional art classes to my digital work instead of following youtube tutorials. But I guess we all learn in our own way I suppose ^^' 

And glad you think so! At least that's some confirmation to me that the previous 6-7 years haven't been in vain!

Thank you! And yes, absolutely the time and effort you've put in wasn't wasted - pretty much whatever you do in an artistic capacity, you learn from. Like I said, it only really stops once you give up and deem yourself a failure; if you never stop drawing, you're on to a winner.
