Good grief! It has been almost a month since I posted a blog. I'm so bad at this stuff. I'm sorry I get discouraged so easily from these types of things. I will continue to try my best and improve on that.
Just as I will try to focus more on my art projects. I've been starting and stopping projects because I don't feel anyone is interested in what I do. I'm doing my best to remind myself that I'm doing this because I enjoy doing it, not for others recognition. It is a hard thing to get over.
I'm going to try doing these in order as they came.
First, was a simple comic that came from one of the "Draw you OTP" or crew or something like that from Tumblr. I guess it is finished. I didn't mean for it to be a big project, but something fun and sketchy. I kind of need to be okay with having these types of "finished" projects.
Second, was my mash-up of drawing poses and color palettes with the Combaticons. I used a RNG to pick out five poses from a chart I found on Tumblr. I did the same with the color palette I shared last time I posted. I then chose who would be which pose and jammed the poses together.
I made it most of the way through three characters, I still have some work to do on Brawl, before I lost focus and moved on to the next thing. Onslaught and Vortex are still sitting waiting to be touched.
I partially wonder if using the palettes caused some of my distraction. I wasn't sure if anyone would like the color changes. I tried doing Swindle in his normal colors, but that's as far as I made it with that thought.
Third, came an attempt at doing a flower wreath around a character. That one was a challenge as I haven't done flowers before. But I love the flower wreath art so much. >_<' I think what made me fall off of that one was the character I chose. It was another thing I haven't done much of. Optimus Prime from Transformers Animated. I don't know why, but working on Prime and the thought of sharing him sent me into a tizzy. So this now sits in my WIP pile.
Finally, my most recent project. I've gotten a new set of calligraphy ink pens that I have been enjoying and I've got a pack of trading card sized sketch cards. I started out trying to do a back an forth between Transformers and Avenger characters. I only made it through two Avenger villains before dropping that side and sticking with Transformers. Mostly because they are more fun in my opinion, but also because, again, I wasn't getting much feedback from social media (and by feedback I mean likes/retweets since it's a rare thing for someone to comment on anything I do.)
The "Mad Titans" were up first,
Then, their second in commands, or at least who I think are their seconds...
And then I just went with Decepticons.
And, now you're caught up. Maybe in a week or two, I'll still be on this one project. I have a list set up to help me finish the Decepticons and hopefully start the Autobots from the Prime series.
