Looking good! I'm assuming the one on the right is the latest.

[Paedantic Basterd]

Right, complete!

[xLizardx]

As you can see, I prefer drawing in pencil, and I'm really lazy, so cba with backgrounds most of the time.

Pedestrian, your cat picture is gorgeous, I love the extra touches you've added to the whiskers, and the light on her face. A portrait of your own pet, by any chance?

Wow, xLizardx those are great! and not to be overly critical or anything but I imagine they could be even better still if you added a bit more texture and contrast (especially on the pencil drawings), although it could just be that it gets lost in the scanning process. (I find that the finer nuances of drawings often fades when you scan them )

That's alright, I don't think that you're gigantically debasing me

Sorry, couldn't resist!

I'm a pretty lazy drawer, so don't worry, you're not the first person to make a similar suggestion haha. They are probably a little better in the original versions I guess...? Sometimes I play with the brightness/ contrast after uploading if they come out as too insipid after scanning, but I don't think I did on any of the ones I posted.

I enjoy drawing, but I don't really do it very often - I'm too easily distracted by other things. I probably spend more time writing/ recording music, or simply writing.

Do you draw at all, or have any music or writing online? Apologies if you've already posted artwork, the number of back-pages on this thread is a bit intimidating, so I confess I've not looked through them. I probably should though, given the subject matter.

I wish I could paint as awesomely as the dude who did the cat, that one's incredible!

Actually:

Spoiler for videos being off topic in an art thread:

And there's the story of that. I don't really think I have it in me to genuinely debase someone gigantically.

I do some drawing from time to time in fact, but I haven't done so in a while now. I have some drawings in planning actually and I might post them in this thread if I am pleased with them when they're finished, although that probably won't be before after New Year's at least. But I haven't posted any of my drawings on here yet, as I have only been a member for a month.
Also, I don't think think you're expected to backtrack extensively through the thread, so relax.

And just so you know, Pedestrian is a female.
(Or am I completely out in the fields here? I am almost certain, but if not: Sorry, Pedestrian.)

Ped, those watercolours are amazing. Seriously. You really have a gift.
