Description HEY, MAKE SURE YOU READ THIS PART;

this was most definitely a fun little experiment. ;-----;
there was originally a sunset in the background, but i felt like the character itself was strong enough to stand on its own like this.

when i was considering leaving deviantart, the fact that just a few people told me that my art inspired them, made me want to stay.
i want to improve for that purpose and for myself, as well.

so, some of you guys might not be aware of the little inspiration box i have on my page.
it's not much now, but it's getting its intended job done.

i advise going to take a peek at it~!
and maybe even put one on your own page.
it may seem silly, but it's definitely helped me A LOT.

i tend to stare at my page and just keep refreshing it, waiting for messages, deviations, or something. anything. i just wait for something amazing to miraculously happen.
so i put that box there to remind myself that i can't just wait around for something amazing to happen and i should instead be doing something productive to improve instead.

Hmm, I took a look at the inspiration box and maybe I can kick myself into doing some more sketches at least. Kinda like my Katana Sheathe concept.

RebelLucario In reply to awkitsu [2012-07-12 09:07:03 +0000 UTC]

I've got a schedule of things I planned to do right now, some things i've been putting off for months, so priority goes to that. But if I can work a sketch in i'll at least try... But after all that, definitely gonna sketch.

i was thinking about putting artists in that box that inspire me? hmm.
but i'm not sure ;w;

Gleedleleedlelee In reply to awkitsu [2012-07-12 02:00:52 +0000 UTC]

I think that might do a bit of good, because then, if you don't feel like you could do anything, you could go to the back of their galleries, and see how they've improved by doing what the box says to do? o:
