Description
For the "Draw This Again" contest.Comparison of the new and old versions of my deviation "Light in my Dreams" featuring my character and a jellyfish whose overall concept is very important to me (and an icon of mine offline!).
I wasn't going to enter at first, but hey, doesn't hurt to enter for a bit of fun, right?
An improvement after 1 year, 2 months.

WOW. And I thought it was good before.

this is such an improvement, one of the best i've seen! they're both great drawings, but your newer deviation captures the lighting much better, using the purple tones on your character to make your character blend much better with the background. and your new drawing also captures the lighting and the texture of the jellyfish much better! great improvement

hey so...it says it goes until september 6th..so is the entering phase already over??

It closes on the 30th of September. I believe you were reading the part about the 'before' version of a drawing having to have been drawn prior to the 6th of September. c:

Mind me asking what the original version looks like? Is it in your gallery? c:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sure I can link you to it. XD
Can we use a reference photo? Because I used one for my after version sketch and I was wondering if that's not against the rules
here's the original version (from february o.O) [link]

I don't think it's against the rules to reference- as long as the pose is similar to the original I don't think it matters. c:
And if it's stock you add credit, then~ c:

it's an image from google ^^haha
well um, it's kinda similar. But I was wondering too how much we can change from the before version. Because I really hate the before version, the pose and the bg.
that would be my reference image: [link] too different? (I changed something when sketching so mine does not look like this a lot

I believe that as long as you don't trace the photo, it should be okay. c:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Why should I trace it? 
but using references is always good in my opinion
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Just saying. xD
I knew you wouldn't trace anyway. c:
Yep, I totally agree! Referencing is always good!

Good artists never trace! Only reference and learn! xD

my saying lol XD
Ugh like years ago when I was really small I really used to trace
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, every kid had definitely done that! I did it as well. xD
But it was when I was like, 7 or something. xP I didn't even know what the internet was back then, so I wouldn't have put any online.

yeah same

I always used paper that was really thick, so with parts of the drawing I guessed what went where. Great fun. xD
