Traditional Art Sketches and Memories

Hi everyone, these are several (9) drawing from when I was first learning to draw. These occurred from my 8th grade year until my sophomore year. Now looking back on them, I can safely say I've made vast improvements, and it shows exactly how far you can come. Since then, they have been moved from house to house more than 3 times, crumpled, stomped on, etc. So the scans are rather low quality. With that, I hope you enjoy them as much as I have been lately. Feel free to give any comments you like.

 

(Eeek, some of the scans are huge. Reduce please?)

Hey, you're not half bad at all! 'Specially since these are old drawings. You done anything new at the moment?

Maybe at this stage you're a lot better, but the shading in some of the drawings here is a little messy and too 'grey'. There are some anatomy problems about as well - but otherwise there is definately potential over here.

Good work~

 

Can't really offer any advice as its no where near recent as you have said.

Anyway, it always is weird looking back isn't it? The change of perspective never ceases to be staggering.

 

Those were outstanding. OMG the shading was perfect in all of them. Great job.

 

I figured I'd leave em big. Didn't think it'd be a problem. Yea they are over 4 years old (and sometimes even more). I'll maybe post something new later. I just thought its nice to look back when you were "bad" or a worse artist and just see how far you've come.

much of the smudging and nastyness comes from them being old and mal-treated.

FYI, I'm a senior in HS right now.

 

While I myself don't, there are probably a few people here who run a 56k connection. I'm going to refrain from critique since these aren't recent.

 

Well it kinda bothered me.

Glee 4 years old?! Crap you must be really good then, I totally can't wait for your new submissions.

...And what's HS? >_>

 

High school.

 

John has teh 1337 skeet art. I remember those. Good times. ;~;
