Hey! This meme:
Is super popular on Twitter and Instagram atm! So why not here as well!
It's very self-explaining, I think. But small rule: don't bash in another artist who posts in this thread, this is a positive thread where everyone needs to feel safe and at home to post their (old) art!
here's mine:
2015
2017
2019
i used rahart as an example here bc i got a lot of old art of him! also all these pics are p similar (well the third is a literal redraw of the 2nd) so it makes the improvement more obvious i think :D
the 1st one was right when i started digital art a few years ago, the 2nd was my first real 'style', and the third is now ;w;
2015, 2016, 2019
why is that glorified slav squat shitpost the only good recent art I have of this idiot, I can't keep showing that for these kinda topics hgjfd. I would have even older stuff but my old computer ate the files and I'm a dumbass never backing up my work 10/10
2014 - 2016 - 2018
ahah oh boy
this is gonna be a.. shameful look into my past
I used to be obsessed over gravity falls and thought i was the SHIT when it came to drawing GF lol
2016
2017 (OH GOD MY WARRIORS PHASE...)
Early 2018
Late 2018
2019 <3
2012/2014/2019
I would compare with proper or fully rendered artworks but I guess using the same character would be a more clear comparison lol
Mine goes 2016 -> 2017 -> 2018 > 2019. Sadly I only have the images from my DA. It's really uplifting to see everyone's improvement here!
2016
2017
2018!
...and 2019! I still have a lot to improve but I'm happy with how I've progressed!
Mid-2017, earliest thing I can find easily. I was super proud of it at the time, and it still looks alright, but the airbrush shading, awkward stance and teeeeeeny tiny neck look weird. I have this OC still
Late 2017 when I started trying to use a tablet. It's.. it's kind of average, like the other thing. Wonky bodies, wonky lines, all around a bit weird.
Early 2018, no tablet anymore, I did a lot of experiments with colour palettes around this time, this is one of the more edgy ones. Bonus points if you can name the song. Would you believe me if I said it's an earlier design of this character?
Still-early-2018. I'm still somewhat proud of the shading, but the colours are weird and all sorts. Same character as the first picture, maybe I should actually put them on Toyhouse...
Late 2018, mid-2018 I spent all of my time running.. a.... Baldi's Basics.... ask blog... wow, that feels kind of dumb to say. BUT! It let me improve my art HUGELY. By the end of the year? I was actually making decent art! These are actually two of the characters from one of the blogs, just heavily headcanoned and with a WAY off-canon story. If Baldi's Basics even has a story.
And for stuff this year..? Look through my art tab I guess. Also this which is REALLY EDGY so watch out. It's a nightmare, so, it's gonna be.
I have much older art, but I.. don't really want to look for it- I still think this shows some decent progress!
