Becoming Awesome

Sun Aug 9, 2009, 12:59 PM
Over the last year I've constantly looked at other peoples work on Deviant Art and always felt inferior (in terms of artistic ability), this feeling was also more prominent when i compared things such as the amount of page views and comments I have with other DA artists...but recently it hit me, being envious of other peoples work isn't going to do me any good, if I want to be awesome like everyone else I have to kick things up a notch. First things first, I need to upload at least one deviation a week, and secondly that deviation has to be much better than the previous upload.....Its gonna be tough but someday I will become one of the "Greats" on Deviant Art....i will become awesome......

no problem dude

^_^
:iconmegaman90:
I can see your potential ;)
:iconryan-sensei:
thanks, nobodies ever said that to me before....and i can say the same for you, your drawings have dynamic poses which is cool since most people draw characters from a straight on angle, but you've got side angles and stuff which make each piece more interesting ^_^
:iconmegaman90:
lol my junk. that posted up there was from 2 years ago. I am mostly a procrastinator when it comes to art .-. I just post for fun. but like it's just junk to me. compare what you see on DA. damn. some of them are breath taking. I don't have photo shop even if I did. I don't know how to use it. sadly. whadda about you? how long have you been drawing?
:iconryan-sensei:
i am..or was a procrastinator when it came to art and pretty much everything else, but over the last week i've uploaded about 11 pieces to deviant art, pretty extreme for me i must admit...but yeah there are some amazing people on here that have extraordinary skills.....

that sucks you do dont have photoshop, you should find a torrent somewhere on the net to download it, it doesnt really take that long to learn considering the amount of tutorials out there...

i've been drawing ever since i was able to hold a pencil/pen/crayon, although from the age of about 11 to 16 i hardly ever drew because i was just too busy with school, but then i picked it up and became god enough to join an animation course at uni, now i draw almost everyday to help myself improve ...sorry for my life story ^_^
