Journal Entry: Sat Mar 3, 2007, 4:34 AM
Keep practicing your lines, and don't give up on it. Try studying from an anatomy book as well, learn all the muscles, where they are, what they look like, how they move, and then apply your style on top. Practice more lines. Always do more lines. Lines first, then you can start colouring. Lines are more important than colour. Lines, anatomy, and above all, your own ideas. Never let them go. Just think to yourself, what about drawing makes you feel more complete? What about it makes me keep going? Just keep working toward that ideal. You need to know what it is you draw (anatomy, your personal ideas), how to draw it(lines and pose), and why you draw it (purpose, personal desire).

This really applies to anything we do in life, I just adapted it for the current context. Consistent practice of any one thing in a driven persuit of a goal. You could say that your goal is to perfect a straight line. Even if you can't exactly perfect it, if getting closer and closer makes you feel better, then you are driven toward that goal. Through constant relevant practice, your goal gets closer.

Yes, it's late at night/early in the morning. This is the time of day that I start getting philosophical. Whee! Go me! But seriously, if you want something, set it as a goal, give yourself a reason to achieve that goal, and practice constantly, looking for new ways in which to practice that will help you get closer to that goal.

"I want spaghetti in the morning" is a goal. I tell myself it is a goal, I get the pan ready, and when I wake up, I only need a little bit of practice for this goal. First time should do it. Fill the pan with water, boil some spaghetti, and I've achieved my goal. I have to remember that it is a goal I have in the morning, but that's all in practice.

Damn, I did it again. I should go to sleep.

And God of War has frozen twice, has annoying and repetetive gameplay and battles, and it's boringly lonely and morbid. Not really my style of gaming, so I gave it up. Story was pretty craptastic too. The moves were kinda cool, and for the first couple hours it was somewhat refreshing, but overall undesireable in the end.

  • Mood: Euphoric
  • Listening to: With Real Potato Flavor
  • Playing: Was God of War... see above
  • Drinking: Dole Juice, various

Hehheh. Nevermind, a critique now and then would still be very appreciated

No, but don't expect me to critique unless there's one that pops out at me. That means that you'll have a better chance at an interesting one if you draw at least once or twice a day. Preferably 10 a day and upload the one you like best once a week or so. You'll see what you're doing wrong if you just keep doing it, and that's the best way to get better. A nice quiet spot to sketch. You are your own critic as well, XD

It's really just me plastering mouse-text across backgrounds I make out of other people's work. You should check their galleries out instead, yeah?

*oofs and falls over* Time to watch a new anime... Magical Pokaan. Just heard about it, so I'm checking it out. Kuhuhuhuu... Fate: Stay Night was last night (I watched the whole season in one go) *Asserts his higher authority of anime geekdom*

Eheee! I loved it. I really need to start designing some character meshes between RO and Disgaea, then I'll be able to spawn a whole new creation. Too bad I suck at sketching.

~zomby138:iconzomby138: Mar 30, 2006, 6:16:25 AM
michaelangelo didn't actually think of himself as a painter, and he didn't like painters very much, he thought of himself as a sculpter, not that that has anything to do with anything, I just thought I'd mention it. one of my housemates is doing a masters in art history :p I've learnt a lot about light in physics as well o.o I'm doing a maths degree btw

~pronkyou2:iconpronkyou2: Mar 29, 2006, 11:13:58 PM
It's probably just because I'm more used to studying Michaelangelo, etc, and also learning about lighting and shading in physics later will likely stint my view even further toward accuracy. I'll just leave it as a personal reference then. I'm probably just not used to your style just yet, since I haven't got much to look at. You should start working on getting a portfolio of 200+ up there so I have something to work with. ;P
