~(_INTRODUCTION_)~
Ohi 8D The title is still being thought about. So sorry if it sounds a little weird. Basically, I'm putting in a mixture of my old pieces, which are HORRIBLE, and my new pieces. I've changed so much over the years XD
Anyways, I've finally decided to open up my own little thread for my artwork.
*gasp* Yes, you've heard correctly! I do not draw anime, and I rarely draw fanart. Most of my work consists of things that I do in my art class. Although, I've recently become more interested in drawing anime, and last night I actually drew my first one. And I've started to draw some fanart for Harvest Moon. So basically, it's a mix of pretty much everything!
I apologize beforehand if some of my pictures are bad quality. In my art class, it's very rare that we do anything on paper/canvases that we can scan, and therefore I have to take a picture of them. The first few I can't provide solid proof for, because they're locked away in my school until the end of the year XD But I'll be sure to put my signature on the rest of the pieces.
Without further ado, here's my artwork~
~(_RECENT_)~
Fanart
This is Chloe from Harvest Moon Heroes. Here is the actual picture, for reference.

Fanart
This is Meryl from "The Two Princesses of Bamarre." I did this at 11 at night, haha XD For reference, this is her - she's the one in the back. She did come out a little odd, and I admit she looks MUCH better in real life - maybe if you try squinting it'll look better. The scanner picked up all the strokes that I made, which makes it look horrible. That little bump in her hair on the top left corner is bugging me...X__X

Anyways ^__^; That's all for right now. I have to go search through all my old work to find something suitable enough to post XD

Omg freakin awesome Quierta!
I wouldn't say your artwork ever looked bad, both of those pieces are wonderful. The second almost looks lively, like you did it on the computer or something!?
Overall both are just awesome. Maybe I should make an Art Proflio lol? You inspired me! =D

Oopsies XD I completely forgot to say what they were made of.
Both of them were outlined in #2 pencil, and colored in with colored pencil. I didn't touch them with my graphics program. ^__^
But thanks for the comments!

Nice work! Around Chloe's eyes, the shading looks a tad weird, but that is probably just me.

XD I was wondering when someone was gonna say that.
On the original picture, the shading looked darker around her eyes and her hairline, so I tried to mimic that. I may have gone a tad overboard with it, but that's actually how it's supposed to look. ^__^;

Pointilism
Materials: Pencil outline, fine point sharpie.
This is one of about 3 daggers I've done. There are 6 in all, each with a pointilism version and a shaded in pencil version! This one is my favorite out of them all:

Hello, first post from Animalover, you might expect some more later on~ and let's get it on!
Alright! First comments would be the picture of the Chloe character. Copied quite well, although the foreshortening can do some work (things further away from you appear smaller, and the eyes you have done are doing the opposite). On the good side is that you coloured well
.Next is the princess picture, I think it's good but now you pointed out that bump, it does get a bit on your nerves lol. Erm, the nose shading can make it a bit softer, but I think that's it. Oh I spotted that her bottom lip shading was overly done to the left (of us).
What's really neat is your pointillism on the daggers. They are really cool and nice to look it <3.
Overall a nice start to this thread. Hope to see more

quote AnimaloverYes! Haha XD I was trying to make the eyes perfect, and I drew the front one first. When I did the second one, I got a little too excited, but it didn't really show up until I colored it in. By then, I was too mad to redo it. XDthings further away from you appear smaller, and the eyes you have done are doing the opposite
quote AnimaloverI was waiting for someone to point that out! XD I was working with brand new colored pencils, so it wasn't soft enough to blend. In real life it looks okay, but the scanner really picked it up.Erm, the nose shading can make it a bit softer, but I think that's it. Oh I spotted that her bottom lip shading was overly done to the left (of us).
Thanks for the comments! ^__^ I actually have a bunch loaded to my photobucket right now, but I don't produce art very often, so I'm trying to even out how many times I show something XD Anyways, it's been a while, so:
Sketchbook Word - Holiday
Every week we get a sketchbook word in art, and we have to interpret it. This particular one was my submission for "Holiday"~

Ah, simply awesome. =D
I really love your coloring and shading techniques~ They're very well done, and blend together smoothly.
That's a real talent you have there. >=3 Your Line art is also very clean and solid~
I love the stippled effect on the Dagger~ It's unique. =D
As opposed to regular/generic shading, you chose to go with a new approach.
So, Hats off to you, Miss~!
It's refreshing to see new styles. 
The Focus on the berries of the holly is also very nice.
I'm fond of images with particular focuses, such as this one. =D
Chloe = So Cuuute~! I love the coloring! It's so clean! =D It looks just like her. ~_^
O-Kay~ >=3 I really hope to see more from you in the future~!

I can't say much about the Chloe fan art except that it's very clean in his coloring and shading and you did a pretty remarkable neat job with pencils. I can't, however, avoid to lol at how it soooo resembles a "shrinked head" some tribes use as decoration!
The Two Princesses of Bamarre fan art is also a very remarkable neat pencil work and it's very stable since it's an anatomical and political correct character who ended up quite good. The eyebrows however, can be tweaked and be bigger as the current state is what troubles the piece the most.
The pointilistic dagger is awesome! It's also my favourite. It reminded me of the 60's comic style in greyscale and that's the first time I see something like that in this forum. I feel, however, that the hilt is not longer enough for a hand to hold it.
The last drawing is a pearl too! Top second one.
You made the shadings impeccably correct in flow and intensity and you even made it look catchy by painting the fruits breaking the boredom of any greyscale picture having a "noir" feeling in it. Thumbs up!

Hey guys! ^__^ Finally have something to post. I just got back from my art show where three of my pieces were shown. The other two are total crap, so I'll have to show you the best one XD Maybe if I change my mind I'll show the other two later. I don't have my name on it cus it was up on a wall ((and I'm only 5 feet tall XD)) but I can see if I can enlarge it so you can see my name above it ((which I cropped out)) if you need.
