Some old drawings of mine

I dug up some old pencil drawings I did and figured I'd post them. I don't really draw anymore because I just don't have the time. Also, I can reproduce drawings freehand but I have a hard time coming up with my own ideas for drawings.

This first one has been in my scrapbook for years. I did it when I was 12 years old! Note: I photoshopped out my first name.

This one was a project in my senior year of high school. It's a drawing of Mel Gibson in the movie Hamlet.

The next four are Final Fantasy X characters. I drew them from the pictures in the guide book while I was laid up with my broken ankle (see Show and Tell thread for the xray).

Whoa! Those are really good. I have an art exam tommorrow, and I can't draw anything like that!
Still, the art course is hardly about art any more, you just write a load of hippie crap about you feelings and 'BOOM!'- A*! :mrgreen:

Holy Burns! :shock: Those are great!
I especially like the one of rikku.
Awesome, I wanna see more! :P
(I also love FFX lol)

I think we need a Sephiroth and a Cloud though! :D

Yeah, that would be great! You know, my two cats are named after Final Fantasy characters - Cloud and Titus! (well, it was supposed to be Tidus, but I accidentally misspelled it on his Christmas stocking and and I liked the "T" better than the "D" anyway, so that's how it stayed :lol: )

Great stuff, Burns! I had no idea you could draw. :goodjob2:

That Tidus is my favorite. I'm thinking of doing an Advent Children Cloud sometime soon, but I got a few more projects I'm workin on, now. :wink:

And don't ever stop drawing! Just do what I do and take the time out, every now and then, to draw something that really challenges you. Great way to keep up your skills, while having some time between projects. Heh.
Keep it up!

Thanks, Oneironaut! :mrgreen: I'm looking forward to seeing your next piece of work.

I know I need to keep in practice - seems like I use all my spare time on a certain lucid dreaming forum... :wink:

Nice work, all you artist people split me in half. On one hand, I am so jealous you can draw like that, even at age 12.5, and on the other it makes me want to be able to do that. By the way, you left your age and a date, now people can calculate how old you are. Should have photoshopped the date out too :).

Bah, I don't care if people know I'm getting old. :wink:

Hey, yet another artist in the community! Cool - and totally caught off guard here. You never know who's got talent out there these days. Hope this isn't something you decided to "put aside" in lew of the veterenary practice?

Ever try washing in some color? You could have these same drawings copied onto some thicker stock paper and brush in some watercolor for fun. I see lots of detail in some of these you could get into.

Keep it up! :goodjob2:

Neruo, that was unnecessary. :roll:

Burns, hon, those are awesome! I agree that now we need a Cloud and a Sephiroth...

together...

possibly nude...

:shock:

Seriously though, Sephiroth is my favorite Final Fantasy baddie. In fact... I'ma change my avatar to something sexy right now. :D

They are amazing beautiful drawings, Burns. I love to see the art work of others.

:) No, not at all. I'm not near as good as most other artists - I'd never be able to make it! Plus, I suck at coming up with original stuff.

That would be interesting...I've never really gotten into color. I love b/w sketches. I always feel like I'm going to ruin them by adding color. But watercolor would be fun.

Nice avatar! :wink: Yeah, I should do Cloud and Sephiroth one of these days...ya know, with all my extra free time. Haha. I should stay in practice, though - it's been forever since I sketched anything. Thanks for the feedback (and mental picture of a nude Cloud and Sephiroth together...)! :D

Why, thanks, Tom! :D I appreciate it. I also love to see other people's artwork. I'm mindblowing how talented some people are - and there are a lot of extremely talented people on this forum alone! :)
