At Long Last

All right, clearly something’s going wrong here. Steve and I haven’t been posting nearly enough to this blog, which must surely be discouraging for Jim-san. Anyone have ideas for how to make us step up our game? Well, share your thoughts for inspiration and prolificacy as you will; the main point of this post was to share a couple drawings that I’ve made in the last week (yikes!) One’s digital and the other’s from my notebook. 

I’ve got a few more scribbles and thoughts jotted down visually to share. I’ll gather them and post them here in the near future.

Considering you’ve got about 8 hours on me, this is just a matter of quantity versus quality. You spend more time on your images and they come out looking amazing. I don’t see anything wrong with going that route!

Part of this project is to help us hurdle over our individual obstacles in a fun and motivational way. One of my major problems used to be starting a drawing and never finishing it for one reason or another. Usually because I was never happy with it and eventually became unwilling to work on it. Here I’ve been forcing myself to wrap things up quicker with a mindset of “this isn’t suppose to be my best, this is suppose to show me sucking and then getting (hopefully) better!”, and that has really worked for me.

You’re able to work on these illustrations for longer lengths of time and confidently post them, so that’s an area you probably don’t need to work on. I say keep doing what you’re doing! If anything, I need to step up my game to match the hours you’ve put in!

Now, Steve on the other hand.. *narrows eyes*
