No way. No fucking way. I'm in shock. 
You are at least the third best artist I've seen on this whole site. Ever.
Simply astounding, my friend. Simply astounding.

I will! Though it's really easy to glean inspiration from all of the wonderful artists and drawers here on dA, sometimes it's discouraging...I mean, they're all so much better than me. >.< I'm impatient, you see. I want to be as good as them -- now. Unfortunately, it'll take years of practice...sometimes I like to use the excuse that they're a lot older than me, but then I find people like you and jessie145 and I totally lose that excuse.

yes, I understand what you mean. but you're not so bad, I'm actually jealous at you..
but hey, have you checked my gallery,my newest deviation? that's how I have developed over only one year I've been here on DA. so yes, you really get inpired here of all the talented people around..

Yeah, I just saw that one! Pretty amazing. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes, that's true, a good reference makes a better drawing.. I'm trying to get better at drawing more on free hand.
ah, I just thougth so, he has really amazing drawings. I also get so inspired by him sometimes, but I don't think a dare to try drawing like that. but I really enjoy drawing a lot of details in the eyes^^
thanks for watch btw

Sure thing -- thank you!
Yeah, eyes really interest me...unfortunately, the two reference pics I've used so far haven't had good detail in the eyes at all, but I'm going to try and implement that in the next drawing (I think it'll be the next one anyway).
I also wish I could draw faster. It seems people belt out drawings every couple weeks and yet they take me about 6 months.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
okay, that will be interesting to see
yes, 6 months seem a little long time, I usually do one a week, that one I'm working on now am I actually counting how long it takes. I'm up in about more then 8 hours now..
