_{I don't see a lot of improvement? THIS DOES. HOWEVER. REVEAL TO ME A LOT OF THINGS I NEED TO WORK ON.

January: Didn't do a whole lot, so had to choose a more laid back CG I did. Pseudo-soft coloring, lol. OC Belongs to Rieka (), his name is Desmond.
February: Tried something a little different, especially with the hair. Was pleasantly surprised and happy with it, especially the hand lol. OC belongs to Viv (), her name is Iolanthe.
March: More soft shade practice, I was really happy with the clothing shading. The hand was incredibly dinky and embarrassingly small though. I have a fear of drawing yaoi hands on accident, lol, but then all my hands come out really tiny weh. OC belongs to Rieka, her name is Hikari.
April: Whoa did like, nothing lol. Had to use an experimental piece. Tried playing with one layer art. Never. Again. Hooooly shit. That's hard, kudos to you guys who got the patience and talent. Was pleasantly happy with it though, for what it was worth lol. OC belongs to me, his name is Katsumi.
May: Started getting serious about learning how to soft shade, this was my first attempt at what would be the beginning of "my soft shade" style. Was happy with this piece. OC belongs to me, her name is Amalya.
June: Got a big commission! Was really happy with it, too! OC belongs to .
July: Aw crap went back to doing nothing again lol. Another lazy CG! Q 7Q I was happy though, first time I tried playing with the translucent bangs! Some fanart, SIREN.
August: Back to commissions! Eeeeee was really, really happy with that piece, admittedly! Heh he, especially the face, I was really trying to aim for better faces. OC belongs to !
September: Ahhhhh I tried not to use chibis but it's all I had! Really kickstarted my Gintama obsession omg. Haaaaa was really, really happy with it though! * ^* Some fanart, Gintama!
October: Ngggghnnn was angsting over school. So just a commission! Another step closer to understanding soft shading sorta! OC belongs to !
November: Ahhhh just a commission, but one I was really happy with, a special commission! I was very happy with the anatomy and the fact I put a nicer BG lol. OCs belong to !
December: AHHH I SPENT MOST THIS MONTH ANGSTING OVER SCHOOL HA HA HA then uhh... been just doing doodles weh. Been experimenting with chibis though! * ^* I'm happy so far with this simple soft shading, lol! Gaia commission, belongs to Cutesu!

Notes for 2013:

- lets stop making heads angled to the left omg. //slaps self//
- don't be scared to make hands bigger. lets get over really small hands!
- lets not be scared of bgs! time to take pics around town and try drawing them out!
- more big pieces! you're a slacker!!
- lets practice drawing people facing the right. //cries
- and work on soft shade, you're still not up to par with it and still struggling!

* ^* here's to 2013!}
