Look how much I've improved! (Long and Pic heavy)

Dramatic

I was looking at my old thread and saw some of the pictures I've done for people on here when I first started out on VP. I was just kind of putting myself out there, because as a novice with no money, I had to do something! Drawing for people has been the most important part of my time on VP. I have built connections with people, made friends, and it kept me from shying away from the community.<br><br>So I just wanted to show off how you guys have helped me in other ways, as well!<br>Keep in mind, these are all from THIS YEAR and I've already gotten better. It's easier for me to take pride in my work and spend the extra time.<br><br>These are a few of the first pictures I had done for VP:<br>(for Bryson)<br><a href="http://virtualpups.com/index.php?r=dog/view&id=2411005"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">http://virtualpups.com/index.php?r=dog/view&id=2411005</a><br><img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/24vjihi.jpg"; alt="http://i45.tinypic.com/24vjihi.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>(for Bryson)<br><a href="http://virtualpups.com/index.php?r=dog/view&id=2308616"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">http://virtualpups.com/index.php?r=dog/view&id=2308616</a><br><img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/kbdrnb.jpg"; alt="http://i47.tinypic.com/kbdrnb.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>(for Rock N Roll Queen)<br><img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/f9f2vk.jpg"; alt="http://i49.tinypic.com/f9f2vk.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>Sorry for the size, it's just gonna have to be a long post. Anyway, now I think I've been doing better in pretty much all aspects. I've drawn TONS and TONS of American Pit Bull Terriers, I bet I could do it now with my eyes closed!<br><br>Here is some of my newest pictures:<br>(for Zagari Wolf)<br><img src="http://i44.tinypic.com/2qwki9j.jpg"; alt="http://i44.tinypic.com/2qwki9j.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>(for Amika)<br><img src="http://i40.tinypic.com/2dr7y8y.jpg"; alt="http://i40.tinypic.com/2dr7y8y.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>(for Tbone)<br><img src="http://i39.tinypic.com/21dosh3.jpg"; alt="http://i39.tinypic.com/21dosh3.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br><br>As you can see, I've started paying more attention to expression, proportion, paws (lol), positions... And even a little light shading here and there!<br>My favorite things to draw are headshots, gifties, and hairy dogs <br><br>I know there is still lots of room for improvement, but since my public drawing has been closed for awhile, I just thought now would be a good time to show off a little bit of what I've done the last 4 months on VP.

You know why you've drawn so many APBTs? Cause they're the best dogs ever! <br><br>You know I love your art! You've got skills and I'm so glad you've drawn all of my pets (some of them multiple times *coughpiratecough*). I will always treasure your drawings.
