    [Gallery] my work thus far...

    Uh yea.. been meaning to scan this stuff for some time now, finally got to doing it, hoping to get some good criticism, be as harsh or as liberal as you like, I'm trying to improve my drawing (even if I have sort of not been drawing much lately... needa get on that again...).

    So firstly, much of my artwork draws on from a lot of my life thus far. Its sort of an emotional outlet I guess... idk... back in like... 2006, the only thing I'd ever drawn before in my life was like, crappy stick figures and maybe a few photoshop things, so I haven't been at it very long (when compared to real artists) I even felt like I was a "fake artist" if there is such a thing when I first started out. (often trace things, put stuff together, draw something, not like it trace parts of it and improve on it..) What made me realize I could draw was photoshop and the fact that you have the convinience of an undo key at your fingertips which I used heavily...

    So enough talk... heres what I've scanned so far, and I'll most likely continue to update it as I get more items scanned onto my computer (note there in no particular order somethings may be old some might be new, who knows).

    -Idea taken from the movie "Constantine" not exactly what I was going for, also one of the few sketches I bothered to color..


    -Heh, funny story, I wanted to create a "unique" alien that was like the flood, but was based off the idea that it was robotic in someway (nanites consume you and build off your body)

    Turns out I ended up drawing something that looked like the borg from startrek...

    -One of my first "doodle drawings"

    yes I was a very disturbed child...

    -doodle... I have so many doodles


    -Still Life, is there anythin else to say...


    -Again.. still life.


    - Lastly before I go to bed I'll leave you with one final sketch.


    I think its bad luck to name something especially before its finished, it dooms almost any project/drawing I'm working on from the start. Right now I came up with the name "Into The Unknown" for this one...

    I like it. as i said over aim the first few pictures have an inner meaning but it's different to different people. that's what i look for in most pictures when i first take them in. i love your application of detail in the third pic. the way i see it you drew what was going on in your head at the time and while it is very random it's still organized in a way that it flows together into a scene.

    wow, i thought i stopped saying that kinda stuff after i finished art 3 XD

    I love the third picture, it's chaotic yet seems to have a pattern to it.
    Only criticism I have is I don't really like the "human" part of the second pic, but hey, I'm no artist, so interpret my criticism as you wish.

    Promising stuff in conclusion.

    Thing is, we need to see recent work, and stuff you have actually put your heart in. We cant truly measure your skill or where you need to improve unless you show us your full abilities. Think of it as a test.

    .. is that a paradox... This is fairly recent work, and stuff I put my heart in... Then your asking me to show my full abilities.

    Your confusing me.

    Its almost as if you tried to insult me, but didn't want to be upfront about it. (like, "thats crap, show me something amazing.."), coward...

    Uh...? I wasn't insulting you, but you can take it anyway you want I guess...
    You said doodles, and also first drawing, so what do you want me to think? I'm sorry if my definition of doodles is different. To me doodle means just some freehand drawing while bored, sorry if I misunderstood your post. :\

    *sigh* 2 of them are doodles, I still don't understand your point, I asked for criticism, you can criticize what ever you want be it doodles or works of art (take note that only 2 of the above images are doodles...), so I'm still lost as to what your asking me to do.

    Do you want like a full on fully finished painting?
