I think they both look amazing!!
But I can't deny the brilliant difference in those 9 years.
How were you able to improve your skills over that much time?

Thanks a lot! ^_^ I improved by doing studies, painting from reference pictures. The second painting is actually from a picture.

Did you take classes or maybe watch YouTube videos?

I did watch youtube videos like Sakimichan and Ross Tran, but I still have a lot of improvement to do when it comes to paint without a reference picture lol

I think you did a tremendous job on the picture. You should be very proud of yourself.
I have watched "Draw with Jazza" on YouTube. But still no where near at a level to put my drawing art on display, but I do submit my painting work on here.
What was one of your biggest "Ah ha" moments where you really noticed you stepped up your game?

Thank you so much for your sweet comment, I really appreciate it ^_^
I do know Jazza, he is awesome too.
I would say that my biggest ah ha moment is when I started to understand more how light and shadows work, it makes a huge difference. But I still have a lot to learn though hehe

That was probably the same moment for me. How do you create your shadows?
I think :thumb629686450: was my moment where I thought my game just got stepped up. Both with lighting and shading.

I use the blending brush with black at low opacity like 4 or 5 % or sometimes its other colors but in dark tones
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
When I make my shading layer. I lasso the whole character and fill with a dark tone of like a red, blue, green, purple, brown, yellow. And set the opacity to like 40-60% and erase what I don't need.

It's also a good technique

I can't believe how open and honest you have been about your journey and the techniques you have learned.
Not many people on here that I have found like you. I have much respect for you right now.
