Description
I was checking my millions of unlabeled cds, searching for some notes I needed, when I found one cd with old drawings I did in 2003 and 2004.I redrew one, to see what happens.
Man, it's been a long way D:
This looks more like 2003, but the file said 2004 and I uploaded it on animexx in 2004, too : /
That's Xellas from Slayers, btw. I know there are various other versions of her, but I always liked the bling bling one the best.

Wow, the amount you've improved in such a short amount of time is almost unbelievable... I guess some people are just innately born with the ability to produce quality art and improve far beyond the abilities of others.
You're clearly a very accomplished artist and I can only see you improving more as time goes on.
Keep up the hard work! =]

Wow, that was one drastic style change! The former is more 'traditional' anime/manga style (If you can say that with so many styles out there) while the second... It's got a lot more realism and depth. I adore the smoky, translucent style, almost like a gouache painting. Is preeeetty.
Also, Zelas! She's just so sensuous and slightly arrogant, exactly spot on character wise (Even though you never really /see/ her character... ). The pose and expression is to die for.

You did a much better job capturing the predatory look of Zelas in the more recent picture... I think I prefer this version of her too...

Fantastic. I have considered redoing some of my old works. They don't have a patch on yours though.

O.o
4 Years is a long time I guess. I can't say I've had the same improvement in my art.. but I totally have in my writing. I guess what they say is true. Practice makes perfect.

seven4real [2008-12-01 09:45:08 +0000 UTC]
WHAT A HUUUUUUGE DIFFERENCE!! I hope that after 4 years, I'd have as much improvement!!
The older one is more anime-like, of course. But you pwn with your most recent style.

This, this right here will forever make me shut up whenever I bitch about not liking a piece of my art, that everybody else gets better with practice -but- me. Progress! It happens! For realz!
Seriously, I need to print this. It'd work infinitely better than any other motivational poster. <3
