My first real-proper-gosh-darned-effort solo coloured drawing in over two years.
I wasn't intending to post this, but I figure it turned out well enough for a limited FA/IB release.
There's still a lot wrong with the image. I didn't use a skeleton, and I didn't correctly flesh out bits I should have. Still, it was a half-hour job, and I did it after ranting angrily in IRC about how my art is going utterly nowhere.
I want to become a solo artist. I want to become a good lineartist, and I want to do far better colouring jobs than I am currently capable of. As a solo lineartist, I'm the part of the barrel the scraper doesn't go near. As a colourist, I'm mediocre, probably far closer to sub-mediocre. I miss out on a lot of details that I shouldn't be missing out on.
Anyway! If anyone wants to see the wiremesh test used to make this image, click here. It'll also explain why the bits of this pic that're off, are waaaaaaaaaaaaay bloody off. :D
