I found a bunch of old CDs I used to listen to back in 2005, and they brought back such nostalgia! Each one I could immediately imagine the little "movies" in my mind I made up to the songs, each about one of my stories back then. I had forgotten about a lot of these songs..
I've had more drawing inspiration lately, and after listening to these I feel so pumped to draw one of the characters from a story I made back in 2005. I have a really old drawing of him that I STILL like! I want to make a really cool photoshop version of the pic-I remember being so proud of it because I was able to make the metal look shiny with colored pencils, and I bet it would look awesome on photoshop! Then I want to draw some more-I just feel like drawing him! And...I kind of want to post it on DA, but I'm skeptical about posting such a very special character on that site, especially considering he's not a pokemon, and well, anyone who read that earlier journal of mine will know what I'm worried about.
This character has such wonderful memories for me, and he is, to date, my most favorite villain I've ever created. Cyclone the vaporeon and one of the characters from the book series I want to publish come close, but this character wins as my favorite hands down. And, I don't just wanna draw cool pictures of him, I want to show them to people!
I'm not completely sure, I want to talk to someone about it first, but...I think I'm going to do it. Though at the first sign of empty praise by bashing my other art, and I take 'em off DA for good. Happy nostalgia and elitism (even if it's just among fictional characters) DO NOT MIX. Nor will I let it. This character is cool for who he is, not because he's not something some people don't like.
