so it's been quite a while since my last journal update. i don't have a real excuse i've just become lazier. but I'm trying to fight it off though. i've been studying a lot of basic art stuff again. i don't want to just wing it when it comes to something important like the proper human proportions, something a lot of people here don't seem to care about (won't say who but you know who you are). anyway, i want to say I'll submit something again soon but frankly i've become to critical of my own drawings to do so. I'll finish something, know what's wrong with it, and do it all over again. when I'm certain and satisfied I'll submit something I'm proud of. as for how long that will that be, i still don't know.

so anyway here's a site with a lot helpful tutorials and guides that have help me out a lot [link]

i wold also recommended:
-anything by Andrew Loomis and Vilppu
-video instructional series "the structure of man" by Riven Phoenix
-accepting any constructive criticism with out getting upset. if someone tells you that your drawing is crap because you have no understanding of perspective or something you shouldn't take it personally. instead you should be happy because you know you'll be able to improve your skills even more than before. even if you become a popular professional artist for hire to hear someone else say you need to improve your work means there's still much more to explore. but that's just my opinion anyways.

I've kind of gotten bored of my music selection. i want to hear what you guys are listening to/ recommending to others.

i'm not much of a writer so that's why i don't submit my poorly constructed journals that often.
