i would have to say the Blood one is my favorite by far. I've tweaked them to as far as I think i can, since i tried some final edits on the Bond one and actually made it worse which is normally a sign of overcooking a piece. so it time to leave it for now :) again thanks folks for the sharp eyes! ]]> http://elixia-dragmire.deviantart.com/journal/No-more-sketches-303868081 http://elixia-dragmire.deviantart.com/journal/No-more-sketches-303868081 Wed, 23 May 2012 04:19:44 PDT No more sketches! nonadult journals/personal Elixia-Dragmire http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/e/l/elixia-dragmire.gif?13 Copyright 2012-2013 =Elixia-Dragmire
to try and reorganize this gallery I wont be submitting sketches to DA, or at least to my main gallery. All sketches will go to my tumblr account instead. And I'm going to try and stick to it this time ;) This will hopefully spare you all of the endless sketch spam of mine and encourage some top grade artwork for submissions here on DA!

As a teenager I loved the stuff, its was cartoons for grown ups! I used to copy and adapt the style to my own. A LOT. Even in university I still clung on to it and did the cutesy emo scene. Its only when i got a job and had to bend my art to the will of others on demand that i started to break those shackles. my first boss slowly beat it out of me, first job: draw some characters in the beano style D: nearly every 3 months I have a new style to do for a specific job.

so what happened? I'm in several groups and there are only a few groups i actually SEE this happen. Those are the shared interest groups. for the sake of this entry, i'm dividing groups into these two camps, shared interest and skill level groups.

it feels like an art slump but not. I've lots of ideas to do with my art but I'm tending to go 'meh' over most of it and then obsessing over the occasional piece. then dying off into a 'meh' again when it finished (if im lucky).

normally the thrill of finishing one piece excited me to start my next. its odd. obliviously Christmas was an energy drainer. always is. But I've been like this since this pic:
