That was super informative!
Also, here's a little something additionally regarding foreshortening I found most awesome:

I have an entire folder of references and tutorials if you ever want me to ZIP it. I dumped it all on 4chan one night when like 4 different artists started the "I hate myself" stuff again.

MLPG whined it was shitposting but the artists were saying a different story.

It would help me out a lot if you could do that :D

I was immensely inspired today after seeing a magazine from ImagineFX, called "Digital painting" http://beta.imaginefx.com/sale-now-imaginefx-presents-...

Oops, crap, it says the file is too big for Mediafire. I might have to make a torrent and I sort of forget how.

I can't draw. I can't stay focused enough to learn. X3

My fiance is on Ritalin and I need something like Cymbalta or Xanax. Other than that, it's just sheer willpower that gets you through the day, you know? Maybe you have someone you want to impress or maybe you just want to relax or improve.

It's all about what makes you happy. And drawing comes as naturally to me as eating or breathing by now.

True, I guess. I actually DID used to draw back in school. Used to doodle in my note book. Mostly monsters I made up in my head, like a monster with a dozen eyes on eye stalks, a huge, fang filled mouth, and lobster claws...it only came out during a new moon, when the moon is completely dark.

That sounds really mysterious. I have some of Gami's monster doodles on my desk still, they definitely help.

That damned ritalin... one of my friends have ADHD, and got Ritalin to help him in school. Now some years later he is deep in narcotics :/

I...don't think Ritalin leads to drug abuse automaticly. You sure there weren't OTHER things that got him into that stuff?

@ Incaros

There is always something else involved, but Ritalin was one of the main reason he got into that hell spiral known as drugs.
This has been backed up by many of the doctors and psychiatrist in our area. So they are very reluctant to give kids Ritalin and other medicament's like it.

Suddenly, this makes me glad Gami has a lot of self-control most of the time. I've never caught him really abusing pills, at least, no more than I might. (Tramadol for pain, Ambien for sleep, etc)

I'm scared not to use pills as directed. Hell, I took a prescription-strength pain pill for some really awful neck pain, right? Damn thing knocks me out the rest of the night and starts a depression spiral since I'm out of Cymbalta. Yippee.

Sometimes the cure really is worse than the disease. I don't really need another bipolar-strengthened breakdown though. Trust me, normal breakdowns are bad enough. I learned antidepressant doesn't mean "will never have feelings hurt or cry."

Almost sounds like a medical conspiracy plot. Drugs to fight side effect of other drugs that fight other side effects from the main drug...

@ chadevold

It does, but bipolar is an extremely stubborn mental disorder than actively resists treatment and a working chemical cocktail. This isn't the first time I've played the med shuffle nor dealt with incompetent doctors.

It all comes down to money. If you have money, you get what you want. If you don't, be prepared to suffer for it.

You should have come to Norway
It has a social insurance, tho it doesn't have as good coverage as the higher American health insurance.
