@ruril - so cute XD
i want an art teacher who will stick me in a computer room

@Auro-Cyanide
Wow! i love the shattered glass in that pic of yours
the semi realism looks quite nice =D

@Chorvaqueen
that is a huge difference in colouring - changing colouring really does alter pics completely dont they?

Thanks ^_^ I've been meaning to do how-tos of that one and these two: http://auro-cyanide.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2q6233 http://auro-cyanide.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2n4euq
since I created them in a class at uni and I have documentation of how I did them, unlike when I usually lose half the layers through merging XD
Also, since the class was about using different techniques, I used quite a lot of different things outside of just digital painting, so I thought people might be interested in that. I'll get around to it eventually. I wish I had the patience to do work like that more often.

I posted a lot because I improve a lot each year

2009

First digital art






2010







2011





I noticed I got lazier and lazier in drawing... :/
in 2010, I worked hard and put effort on my drawings... most of them took days
and in 2011, all of them are done in a day...lol

Wan to see my old art? Its horrible that you will puke. ( I can't believe everyone around me said it looks good =_= ) I'll go find them

Drew the same picture, first one from 2005, second from 2011.

2005

2011

... I don't think there's much else to say lol

Improvement partially due to the fact that I can cheat via Photoshop now >:D

@jaysilver, That's a great improvement to me! And in your 2005 pic, I thought the middle one is a one sexy long-haired guy xD But then I saw she has boobs in the 2011 pic lol. It's awesome too that you can use Photoshop, I wish I can as well..

Well, let's look deep into the depths of my photobucket!



From 2007, I think! Awful, is it not?



I redrew it just now. Wow, I improved! Isn't that lovely?

[Cinerious]

Ohhh, I'll try this one

I can't find my oldest drawings on paper, but this is the oldest I can find in my hard drive. The date says early 2010, but I have a feeling I drew this sometime during 2009...

And here's one of my latest drawings (for Hayzel's Lost Dreams VN). My lifelong battle with anatomy continues. ;__; Sorry for the quality -- this was the scanned edition XD

They're...different, yes? I'm surprised myself how my drawing style could change in such a short time. 0__0 A mix of tutorials, observing my favorite artists, and loads of paper. XD

You guys improve so fast ;A;

Well, here's some of my work back early 2009 when I was new to digital media:

Ack.. I'm not willing so show any more haha.

[Auro-Cyanide]

Oooo, everyone has done great!

I haven't ever redrawn something from the past... I'm a little worried at what would happen if I couldn't do it >_< I should try it one day though, I think it looks like fun.

[natsumachi]

hehe this is an interesting thread. actually it's quite inspiring to see such a wide range of progress. and especially seeing re-drawings is so neat. :D
