Description this was supposed to look like a swimming vaporeon, i wanted him relaxed, but now he just looks dead like he's floating to the bottom of a river, still i liked the picture, and if you turn him sideways he's alive again, but this was how it was meant to be. I think i learned a lot from drawing this though and i still love it a lot!

This looks great

what might make him look like he is in water more is if you put a few ripples as he swims through? might make it look like he is moving through water (harder than it sounds I really strugle with water affects )

actually yeah, this is one i am looking at building a background for, but it's never been my forte, i have only learned to draw fairly recently actually, but i am hoping to repost this one including some water! and the other vaporeon i drew too.

hhahah an ashamed 5 year old, i love it XD *sigh* i really wanna draw them true to original, but alas, although i am proud that i didn't copy someone elses chibi styling, itook a bit from everywhere, actually i have a few different styles, but my sister loves these ones so when im bored at work, i scribble em out and sms pics of them to her, annoys her when its really dead at work XD

well, not neccesarily realistic, but i wanna draw the characters in the style they were intended, but be able to mix em up, i am getting better though, i wouldn't consider my alter ego baka to be chibi style, so i practise a lot with her.

Ahhh I think I understand you there im kind of trying to do the same thing (and I think we picked a very difficult path ) means we have to practis lots of styles but its great fun thoguh
keep practising! its what people have told me and it seames to work
hahahaha I can tell you have practised with the Chibis though

hahha yeah, the chibis are something i do all day long, only the ones my sisters says okay to make it to deviant, i can draw hundreds in a day, but colouring takes me a long time, i find it hard to stay in the lines, i've never had the steadiest hand, buti have looked at some of the artists i am watching, and you look at work they did not 6 months ago and think, that's worse than mine, but then the stuff they are doing now, i wouldn't think i could possibly draw that well, and you draw real people so well (which is an artform i suck hardcore at) and it really boils down to practising, so ive been using a lotta spare time (specially at work) to practise hard, and i am trying not to be too critical of my work.

Oh my I envy you! it takes me days to draw even a small picture I have to keep stoping and exsamining it (darn insecurity issues lol )

Keep all your work in order of how old it is and have a look back and youll see the same inprovement I bet and you dont need to be critical trust me your drawings are adorable

and yes latly ive been working really hard on hands (darn things lol) they drive me nuts

I try not to hide hands as much now though I do have trouble making hands match? if there are 2 hands (witch some people seam to have just to give me more work lol) most of the time I draw them miss matching like 1 will be too big or a differant shape
