You have all the reasons in the world to be proud of your drawings, dzioo. You are incredibly talented, and, even better, you master your style perfectly. Your characters look different, but not just because their hair color and hair style. (Which is the case of many artists, unfortunately.) The backgrounds you paint are superb, and I especially admire how good you are at perspective. (Something I have never mastered and will definitely never master, lol.) Also, don't worry; I've been following you for years (ever since the first Fullmetal Alchemist series, which was back in 2004, if I recall correctly?) and you have improved a lot! I assure you, there is no deterioration in your skills, only a lot of improvement.

I don't draw anymore for various reasons, but mostly because it shows a lot that I lack formal training. I have never taken art classes, I know nothing about anatomy, how muscles work, etc, I have no imagination when it comes to poses, etc, etc. It makes me sad sometimes, but what makes me sadder is when I try to draw something, and it just doesn't look good.

The drawing with the tiger is beautiful, by the way. Your coloring has improved a lot, and the background looks very realistic. You can draw pretty much anything you want, which is something I admire. Keep up the great work!

thank you! you're seriously too kind for me ;_; I know I went through the phase of same-face-syndrome, so I'm trying to work on it right now. yes, I remember you! and I remember your cute drawings! it's such a shame you stopped drawing :/
you know, I haven't had a real formal training either. I finished architecture, true, but we had only 3 hours a week and they were expecting us to already know everything>< so it's not a matter of formal training, really. of course, it shows who has taken art training because they advance incredibly fast. I can't make you get back to drawing if it doesn't give you pleasure. I have to draw. it's like breathing to me. the worst kind of addictions><

once again, thank you very much for the incredible compliments you've given me ;_; I'll try not to let you down^^

You're welcome, and I do not think I'm too kind- you just deserve it, seriously! Yes, I believe we've all been through the same-face syndrome... The thing is, many artists stay stuck in it forever. You, on the other hand, are not part of them because as you said, your characters all are varied in facial structures and body built.

I also stopped drawing because I didn't like where my art was going. Sometimes I tell myself that I should start again, but I always lose the motivation. OTL

Yeah, and it shows in your drawings that you have studied architecture; your backgrounds look very professional, especially when there are buildings, like the second commission you posted.

To be honest, drawing gives me a lot of pleasure. I sometimes draw, but it's never seriously, I mostly just doodle from time to time. However, I don't remember when was the last time I've drawn something serious... OTL I don't really CG anymore either, because I have a hard time with color palettes and color theories... LOL.

It's my pleasure, really! :D I highly doubt you could let me down, even if you wanted to! :D
