personal 01 (character throwback + weird scenerystudy)

I stumbled across a folder chock full of old art and...well. Usually I'd go on and on about how horrified I was about how terrible my drawings were, but that's old and nobody cares about how much you hate your old art. 

In all honesty, yeah, there was the badbad stuff, but there were some neat things too. Some decent ideas, some not so bad drawings, some showing of understanding of anatomy. 

...Some. 

So here's a huge throwback post to all of the old ideas that I nearly forgot about. 

Pretty wonky lookin' anatomy going on here, but I was actually impressed with the one on the far right. I remember being pleasantly surprised when I finished that drawing; and right now I'm still somewhat pleasantly surprised.
Is that a bad thing? 

And the ...semi-update:

(I think these were all done in 2010)

(and this as you know, is 2012 material)

This one was entirely a product of a really, really weird dream that I had (2007, btw). There were two chicks in kimonos and they were swinging around fire-divinity-mirrors-basically-Okami-weapons in saturated rainbow explosions, bright white flashes and seizure inducing colors galore. 

And they were chasing a T-rex thief duo down for a stolen...Yoshi egg.

...I'd be pretty dumb not to forget that dream (I think I was on cold medicines during that time).

(2012, at 4 in the morning.)

And very, very unrelated, a picture that started out with me having way too many feelings about Cloud/Tifa being stupidly adorable and turned into some weird mix of "and you could be 14 again, sitting on that well without a care in the world" into a color/scenery study with celshading and lamenting over how Cloud's shirt looks like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo's shirt.
