Description Everyone's done it XD I've got to do it too
I feel stupid compared to all the amazing people out there LOL but when I look back... I've come a far way XD And I sucked for more than half of the time lolololol
It's funny how starting digital art makes you much better and fast LOL I think errors are more easily seen in the PC...
Anyway.. I'm glad I am doing non-ref stuff and doing what I like ^^ I hope to become a good artist on the years to come!

This was really fun to do You should try it too!

Thanks so much for sharing! Watching your improvement is very inspiring. I hate it when people think that you're either born with the amazing ability to draw or your not. Like anything else you just gotta practice and learn it. Seeing your progression give me hope

Aaraujo In reply to legomov [2011-01-16 22:44:11 +0000 UTC]

No problem
And you're right about that. Honestly I don't believe in talent ^^" Hard work is what'll get you anywhere!

wow o.o this really shows that you are not a talent; you are someone who has worked damn hard to improve your skills and been successful! (wich is much better/meant as a compliment) lol.

Aaraujo In reply to Capell42 [2010-09-19 16:02:08 +0000 UTC]

Thanks ^^
Yeah I believe most people get good (which I'm not really yet) because of hardwork. Talent is just a lucky helper for some xD
I go by that phrase "A great artist is a crappy artist who just never gave up" XD

Capell42 In reply to Aaraujo [2010-09-19 18:30:05 +0000 UTC]

yep^^ it's the same for everything, only people don't get it and call great people a talent. I think it's not a good thing to say, actually, since that means they belittle the hard work needed.

I like 207/8 best. You have to work more on the digital work!
btw what do you mean with ref-free stuff? you mean you made dr house without a ref?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Aaraujo In reply to Hyoko-x3 [2010-09-10 12:53:42 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I definetly just begun on the digital part some day Ill be good
Well, no ref was 2009 right? 2010 is when I made house (with a ref, of course) but it was also the only portrait with ref I've done in two year

Hyoko-x3 In reply to Aaraujo [2010-09-10 15:29:01 +0000 UTC]

yes ok that I misunderstood something ^^ I personally think that it's not wrong to use refs when you are at the beginning it helps you to improve especially on the digital part.

Aaraujo In reply to Hyoko-x3 [2010-09-10 23:31:23 +0000 UTC]

Oh, definetly, it`s very good to build up refs first

OMG it is amazing to see the way that you have progressed through the years.
