Trying to get back into drawing. About me.

Romione for a DTIYS challenge (8)

I started drawing this a few weeks ago and went back to it today because I've been too busy (party my fault for spending so much time scrolling twitter smh but also I've been trying to finish reading some books/finish watching some stuff before the end of the year. Plus it's the holidays so all of a sudden everyone wants to meet up). I consciously tried to not be scared of shadows since I've been trying to do them in my traditional drawings recently.

Some Drinny fanart I found in my old drawings folder (I'm talking like 15ish years old) I have to say I'm kind of amazed I was able to get the hands to look like that, the arm guidelines tell me I had a ton of patience to follow instructions from how to draw humans/manga type tutorials. And I don't always get to draw hands that look like that! I need to do hand practice again (right now I'm practicing eyes and I think ears are next, I have to check)

This I scanned, cleaned up and colored in photoshop, with the lasso tool using a mouse which tells me I did have infinite amounts of patience back then. Not even the magnetic lasso, the polygon one (I think that's what it's called?) because I do remember the lines came out smoother that way. The drawing:

I have other random drawings, I think I'll make a separate post.

This accidentally turned out more cartoony than my usual drawings (I was really trying to follow the proportions so the eyes came out bigger and big eyes = cartoon). I was tempted to start shading but in the end I decided to keep it simple.

Romione for a DTIYS challenge (4). I tried coloring it but I suck at picking a color pallette, I just wing it and then cry when it doesn't look harmonious. Plus when I tried to do the lineart not all the details were visible through the paper (because it was thicker) Plus ink is more permanent than pencil and I'm scared of messing it up so the lines often end up wobbly. I'll try again digitally if customs ever releases my tablet
