Character Evolution

So... I'm not a big fan of the whole "This art is old thus I must delete fucking everything" thing, but after going through some horrifying old sketches that I did on forums in 2006 I was considering putting some old things in storage... but in going through some old drawings/comic pages, I started seeing some cool trends in how my characters have changed in the last 4 years.

So before I make any rash decissions in deleting/hiding old art, I'd like to share some old pictures with you guys. Please come with me on a trip down memory lne~

Tabbi



Tabbi went from a phsycotic sword weilding 14-year-old with purple hair to an obnoxious telekinesis weilding 15-year-old with purple hair.

Tadhg



He's changed, He's definately changed. I remember thinking he was awesome back when I first thought up all the virus stuff... now that whole chapter is just one giant embarassment for me. XD

Crow



Oh man... Crow... He's a character thats always been hard to place. He started out as almost pure comic relief... now he's more of a dreamy idealist that LOL SO RANDUM. I mean, he's the butt of the joke is all the little dumb comics that I post... but the cannon story is a little different. xD

Kojie



It's kind of hard to see our Kojie in the first one, but I LOVE how you can really see the resemblence between the 2006 and 2009 versions. Similar colors, shirt styles, etc.

Darby


Her first comic appearence ever. She was a pretty different character.


God... why was she busty? What was I thinking? XD

Alexa



Alexa is one of those characters I've always liked but never drew enough... But I particularly like big-boned Alexa-Andrea as opposed to toy body Alexa...

Devlin



One of my newist characters, but she's definately gone through some of the most dramatic character changes. I like where she's going.

Hope you had some fun at my expence~ I did. XD

Such improvement!
Really brings back memories, too... :'D
I vote Tabbi for Most Improved. She's evolved into such a unique character, looks and otherwise.

XD And... try not to be too embarrassed. Old art just shows how much practice you have!

And anyway, everyone's got their embarrassments... I don't want to know how long ago -this- was drawn, but I'm guessing it's not as old as I wish it was. >_>;; [link]

Spock: I find that remark... insulting.

I'm not one for deleting stuff either. But yeah, old stuff can be pretty cringe worthy. I know I look back and often wondering what I was thinking... I thought that was cool?
Still, as you pointed out... the growth man... the growth in itself is really amazing.


I hope to see more of Devlin. Since she's so new, I feel like we haven't gotten to see much of her.

I have to say, 06 and 07 was the prime of your artwork. They had just the right ammount of detail without it looking too realistic. but also didn't look too cartoony. It was just right in my opinion.

However I am not one to tell you in what direction you should go. Stay with how you think the characters should look, they are your characters after all.

Who knows, maybe you'll develope an even better combination.

haha, darby looks so much older in the origional pages xD
ok, I'm not usually one for blondes but Crow has definitely come a good way in the hotty department as well as the character department x3
this really just makes me want to vomit on my own stuff, I never spend enough time on it xD

"It was, in fact, a fun riot "

Bored? Nothing better to do? Great! Read this -> [link]
:iconsonira:
I am gonna disagree there. A very, very profuse 'no'. Why did you feel it was a good idea to tell her that her art was better two/three years ago? Do you think that's a good idea somehow? "Yes, your old art is better, despite how hard you have worked to improve yourself, and have."
