1. Welcome to the Art + Literature sections! Some things to keep in mind:
    • It's a good idea to specify whether or not you're looking for critique from your fellow members. Please don't let friendly criticism turn into an all-out flame war.
    • Art and literature often deal with mature subjects. This is fine, but please keep in mind that we'd like to keep things PG-13. Don't let discussions get out of hand, and if they do, please alert a moderator.

    You may be mistaking me for someone else, I have authored no books in my life time, I have however been practicing my art for awhile, this is stuff I drew using an art book if thats what you were thinking, but I didnt originally make them, except for the naga, birdman, frogman, dragon, and faces

    A good artist and modest. While it may not be the best in the universe it's still really good.

    ohh, I see, now it makes sense, but also, the one thing I cant do effectively is color them, proper color scheme is what always eludes me

    I've been known to dabble in the dark arts. Merhaps I'll upload some when I'm home and feeling caffeine-confidant enough to reveal such things :p

    hi there, thanks for the kind comments on my page and sharing your art! Good work and I can see that you are having a lot of fun with it, which is great. Never lose that, have fun and keep drawing :) I particularly like your monster drawings.

    Thanks again for sharing and happy new year to you!

    Keep it up you're doing good work and remember it is a process to develop artistic talents and so you have to keep trying to move a couple of steps forward everyday. Being critical of your stuff is a good thing it can be what drives you to do better with each attempt but humility can be as damaging as ego if left unchecked. Being confident without being cocky is the ideal. You have a good start here just keep pushing forward!

    You definitely have a talent here that you should keep working on!
    Do you post on Deviantart? I find that's a pretty good place to get noticed and to get a bit of CnC. As well as adding some more here!

    Well hey, you're pretty good at this! I mean, a few flaws here and there, but overall pretty solid, no glaring fundamental flaws that i can see. If you just keep on having fun like this, you'll be a master in no time flat. c:
    Also, if you don't mind, may i recommend Andrew Loomis' Fun with a Pencil? It's an extremely useful piece of work, and it's free too.
