Winter's 1 sketch a day for 365 days thread

[Winter]

Hey guys, I'm Winter!
I've realized that lately my drawing skills weren't as good as they used to be. I want to change this, so I've decided to start my own a sketch a day for a year thread. Basically it's somewhere where I can reflect back on and see where I've grown as an artist. Most of it will be Neopets related, some might not be. Feedback and whatnot would be appreciated but I know these forums aren't exactly fast-paced and super active.

[I don't even know if this is the right place to put this or if this is even a good idea at all]



Veijou, anthro/quad ~ Jan 30th, 2012.

I need to work on hands. Hands hands hands. Oh, and paws.

[VVhisper]

Yay for a sketch a day thread!

And on the bright side, your dreads look awesome

[Winter]

I didn't post yesterday because my boyfriend and I were out literally all day long. :3
So, I'll post two for today~


Comei, first drawing ~ Feb 1st, 2012.

This is my Grey Cybunny I adopted recently. I still haven't come up with a finalized character for her, although I'm thinking something on the cute side to counteract all of my deep, emotional and "scary" characters. Heh.

I was trying my hand at ruffles and I think I kind of failed. :C



VVhisper | Thanks! I love drawing dreads. They're kind of difficult but a lot of fun.



Unknown Dragon ~ Feb 1st, 2012.

I glanced at a reference. I don't know where the heck the image came from though. OTL.

[Winter]

Okay so this totally shouldn't count but in my defence I was out job-hunting all day today. This was literally all I drew. Woo~



Cloelle and I ~ Feb 2nd, 2012.

"i wna hug u n squish u n luv u"

Ugh, lol. I'm applying for Cloelle although I only have 3 days to actually get anything together. I'm kind of flustered and trying to get things together really quickly. This is probably a bad idea but his (will be changed female) name goes with my idea really well. So.. hrmph.

[Winter]

I'm really bad at keeping up with this! Ahhh.


Xofru, anthro ~ Feb 6th, 2012.

Unfinished. Not sure if I will finish it.

edit: I worked on it a bit more..
Fixed the hair and shoulder. Meh.


Digital painting skills are improving slightly.. I think?

[Winter]

This is definitely a work in progress.


Soldri - Feb 8th, 2012.

He's a male Faerie Skeith. Hurr.

[Winter]

Oh, crap. I forgot about this. Derp.
It's not by any means done yet but yeah.


Hibi - Mar 7th, 2012.

Oh, I did this too.


Uve, for Amber - Derp, same date.

[Winter]

Agh, I'm tryin' so hard to keep up with this! I'm planning on applying for Tarpa, Vix's Krawk. But I don't have much time to work on things. ; n ; I just moved back into my parents' house and I'm still getting settled!


Tarpa, first design concept - Mar 14th, 2012.

[Winter]

Uh, I don't think I even like this. BUT PROOF I DREW TODAY LOL.


Ketak - Mar 14th, 2012.

Yuck. I think I'm going to do pixel art with it. I don't know.

[Winter]

Uh, to make up for the previous image (Ack, so hard on the eyes) I decided to quickly draw Tarpa a few times because I know I won't have much time in the near future - before the deadline - to do so!


Tarpa - Mar 15th, 2012.

B'aw, little pot belly. ; u ;

[Winter]

WIP!


Tarpa, future petpage - Mar 16, 2012.

I uh.. don't know how to draw lava well. Heh.

EDIT:


Layout image pretty much finished. I don't even think I got chosen.
I dunno what's even going on.

[Winter]

MEH. Just a really quick (5min) sketch


Xofru - March 26th, 2012.

I can't draw hands. Woo, go me!

[Winter]

Mass of Kythre crap - March 26th, 2012.


Profile image - March 27th, 2012.

I'm not actually applying for Kythre although I've been considering it for a while now. I don't think I'll end up doing it, lol. Profile image is Ketak and Xofru with me~ c:

They both look significantly worse with the width resize because of the forums. Damnit, LOL.

[Winter]

Remind - March 27th, 2012.

I like this, honestly. I did this for one of my good friends, Kate - she's applying for Remind~


Tekei (Unfinished) - March 28th, 2012.
