Description Thought some of you guys might find this interesting
And sort of see where I started.

I started drawing anime style in 2003
But it wasn't until 2004 that I started creating my own characters
I guess the reason I stopped drawing Ryu originally
Was his hair - it was driving me crazy
And that he didn't really fit into the manga I'm trying to write
(Though eventually all the characters I created at that time
were tossed out and I started with a skeleton of my story
And I'm trying to fit characters to the story
Which is working much better
Though there are still tons of characters to go...

Anyway, as anyone who's seen my previous entries
Ryu-Ka is my character and I will you until you :restinpeace: If you steal him D<

That's really cool! A good idea to make something about your characters history. Gives me hope for the future.

I know, but part of me wishes I could press a fast forward button on the preactising or something,

That's such a cool idea! I haven't been drawing anime long enough to be able to do anything like this, but it's cool to watch how Ryu-Ka progressed through the years You've definitely improved X3

Ryu-Ka In reply to TheCoolz [2008-11-12 10:38:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah - watched that too (and still love it) ^^
My cousin's crazy about it - he has most of the DVDs
So I watch them sometimes when I go over there.

How? ^^'

Ryu-Ka In reply to TheCoolz [2008-11-12 10:46:17 +0000 UTC]

I think back then I was still searching for my own style
So I sort of used bits and pieces to see what worked for me
(always a good way to start ^^)

Ryu-Ka In reply to killer69bite [2008-11-12 05:22:48 +0000 UTC]

Well - I've made a couple of tuts on various shading methods
(Though that picture had a couple extra layers)
And the fire was thanks to a tut by someone else [link]
