haha Oh, man.
You guys want to see something hilarious? I was poking around my dA account, because I noticed a new feature that wasn't there the other day, and now I want to show you something.
This is what my art looked like in 2004.
This is what my art looked like in 2010.
God, I sucked. See how terrible that is? It's terrible. Don't lie and try to make me feel better about it. I look at that compared to what I was up to last year, and I can't believe that I did both of those. That's what years of practise will do for you, though. I got from that to this on my own with no formal training at all. I just look at art that other people do, look at photographs, look at real life, and apply it all to what I draw.
I can't even claim to have good pen control. The software I use -- Paint Tool SAI -- does all that for me. I just know how to cheat to make it look like I know what I'm doing, really.
