I seriously hope there are no Rastafarians frequenting this forum because this is pretty much ultra heresy
And before you ask, he has always been wearing tights. You just never noticed, because they were black tights on black skin in night

Thanks. By the way, this was really fun. TA anotomy is hell, but fun. This kind of stuff is what I talked about in OP.

I want your skills. ;w;

Draw a pic every day. Anything you see. People in a bus, flowers by the road, a dog chained by the market, crates in the corner on your part time job, whatever. It's the first thing they tell you on an art school, too. After that it depends on individual learning methods, I learn way more from making mistakes and looking at them, than being explained how it's supposed to be done, so I need to allow myself to screw up, but there are people who learn most by watching other people do it(which is different from it being explained), people who learn by thinking about it really hard... search your feelings etc. A good rule of thumb is just keep doing it and make a bit more than you wanted to do at the beginning every time. The latter keeps it from becoming a chore.

If you still want a request, how about a "classical" piece?

Heheh, thanks for the advice, I appreciate it a lot. It'll probably take me a long time to improve because once school starts again I will have no time to draw, blargh.

Also...you should fill out the TM-meme! Although it is kind of long and kind of a pain to do non-digitally >_>

[SeiKeo]

Holy shit.

[Ratman]

So I've said I'd do some mgnq fanart.



Lolperspective.
More in the works, hopefully actually decent.

[Froggie]

Oh man

I'll show this to Decu tonight. He is going to flip :'D

[Ratman]

Okay.

I've been owing the guy a sculpture of Kyubei for a year or so, gotta at least try pay the interest.

[Ratman]

Was kinda busy so I didn't have time to get the bigger thing anywhere, have this instead.



She doesn't have glasses because bizarro world.

HAHAHAHAHA

When you draw seriously, you just pile sketchbook upon a sketchbook and paper upon paper, and it's all just staying somewhere forgotten in your house, if you're not self-hating enough to just burn it all.

While cleaning the house, I had to relocate some old papers, browsed them to see how far I've come, and found a whole bunch of never before seen Type-Moon fanart of exceedingly poor quality, dating back to the years 2006-7.

I feel like I should share them with you for a laugh, so here goes:

Additionally, here is some no less bad stuff I did publish on Deviantart.

Spoiler:

Yeah, I think that one will haunt me forever.

[Byegod]

I don think there bad tbh

Im still afraid of posting my sketches

Ratman, are you Czech?

[Ratman]

Ratman, are you Czech?

Yes, I am, in fact.

(only checked out this thread because I was looking for the drawing of stoned Hassan I did many years ago)

[Ratman]

Anyway, since I necroed this thread long after all the intersting links got corrupted, I guess I might as well dump some of what my work looks like these days.

The last few years, besides grinding through studies which isn't really interesting, I've mostly focused on creating a somewhat consistent character portrait format, so I can give portraits to PCs and NPCs. These are from all kinds of games (though some of them could technically be considered setting fanart:

Spoiler:

If you care for something more colorful, I did a lot of maps and enemies for the magical girl tabletop campaign that ran for four years, here's a little bit.

(damn some of these could really use cleaning up with more modern software oh well)

[SpoonyViking]

Oh, hey, those are really nice! My favourites are the first two, though, with the whole selection of PCs (and NPCs, I assume?).
