This is incredible...makes me want to 'give up drawing and improve my drawing' all at the same time...you must have had a very strong talent or no social life whatsoever...either way...


I take my hat off to you.

Haha... probably a bit of both... Now put your hat back on before you get sunburnt

I'm pretty much self taught - kind of ignored my art teachers in highschool and did my own thing, which probably did me the world of good!
Cheers!

Ey, Dave Is someone wants his or her portrait drawn by you how much it's cost?

Loopydave In reply to daxusx [2012-09-06 04:03:34 +0000 UTC]

Really sorry, but I dont actually take commissions, I'm usually so busy I don't have enough time for all the stuff I need to do, let alone take on extras. Maybe one day, but I currently have a pile of back stuff that should keep me busy for a couple of years at least!

daxusx In reply to Loopydave [2012-09-06 04:11:31 +0000 UTC]

so you don't take comission ...that's means i could never have a draw made by you....

This was how you drew back in your high school years? Oh gosh, much more talent than a lot of us when we were teenagers. Love your work.

Cheers! Moved around a fair bit growing up so drawing and reading were the two constants from my childhood

Now I'm relaxed... I thought I should've tried harder the Years ago and you are a hard working tough engaged Guy, but your're just gifted...

Good job!

Loopydave In reply to multimediamixer [2011-05-16 15:52:03 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Believe me, its really all about practice and hard work though - I sketched almost everyday through high school (much to my English, biology and maths teachers annoyance )

Dude, if I could draw like you did back in high school, I would of thought I had some kind of super power. Then again, I'm just too untidy with my work.

This is amazing- you're very good in lighting and shading- and just over all in what you do!

(it's also nice to see old pieces from great professionals!)

Yeah I've only recently started to get serious about my art. Well at least I know I need practice to get where your at. I'd say its going to be hard work but I think hard fun would be a more appropriate way to put it

Aw... you were really good... And you still are...

Just you have an idea the other people feel when seeing that sketch:
This [link] an this [link] were some of average things I did at early 2006 when 17... The better ones I don't have (my lecturer kept them)

I feel small at your side
