Aspiring fan artist and fighting game player. Logging my practice with both so I have more motivation to keep at them. I'm not going to talk much.
This is really just... inspirational. I've been trying to figure out where I want to go as an artist, and now that I've seen this, I know one goal I have: be able to create pictures like this one. Thank you for drawing and posting it.

...of me beginning to practice drawing regularly. I'll have to do something really special for that and go all-out so I can see for myself just how much I've improved over a whole year. That should be interesting.

On a technical level, I... honestly wasn't aiming high, and I certainly didn't acheive much either. Still, for something where I was just letting it rip the whole time, this is certainly far ahead of what I could've done at the start of the year. Come to think of it, soon it'll be the anniversary...

I'm seeing this picture for the first time today, and it feels like a revelation. I haven't had much direction with my own art, but now I do. I want to be able to draw like *this*. Thank you for creating and sharing this.

drawing, and I did have fun drawing this. I really need to make sure I have fun drawing, because goodness knows I'm never making a career out of this, so my motivation *has* to be pure love of the game. And it'll get me to draw more often, which means getting more practice, so I'll still improve.

The picture's also a play on a famous Far Side strip, though that comic has someone trying to push open a pull door. I just liked the idea of Bobblehead Zelda pulling on a door better. Technically, I think this picture's all right but not much more. Today I wanted to remind myself that I do enjoy...

From a technical standpoint, I... guess this picture's fine? I wasn't trying to do anything especially complicated, though I don't really draw cars often, so I wasn't expecting much. Same with Kirby characters, but that might change. I like the series a lot, and now I can keep up with any new games.

Technically, I'm pretty happy with this one. I was trying to do something that'd require me to think about perspective a lot, and I think I managed okay. It probably helps that I own a Dreamcast I could use for reference. Even the hands and shoes aren't too bad this time. I hope that's progress.
