I have noticed young people posting theire images here wanting help to get better. How about those of us who are...well..uhm...over 20 or something, that has been drawing since we where kids post some before and after images. Show the newbies we suckes one time as well, but with time and practise and sticking to your passion..you will get better. Just a suggestion....I need to go home to my mothers place to dig out my old stuff..*s*

I posted this before, but I could not find the post.

It is dated on the back ( iwas 14) and has a story that I wrote as well. Pretty demented.

Really like the idea but unfortunately I've moved 30 times in the last 10 years (that is for real too!) and lost my drawings from way back when. Might have some gumby ones lying around somewhere, have to check

This is a wicked idea. Unfortunately I'm in kinda the same boat as Matt and I've only brought the better stuff with me, somehow this one managed to come along for the ride

I did this when I was 15, I thought it was pretty good at the time.

My after is pages 4 and 5 from my comic I published when I was 19 (a few years ago now). It's not my most recent, but I was drawing heaps back then and haven't had that same luxury since.

Hope you like

What a novel idea.

(rapidly, scuffeling... through archived boxes)

Fred Flick Stone · Posted: Mon Nov 06, 2000 3:59 pm

The first one was when I was 16, the second was when I was around 11, and the other was at 17.
I am 31 now so these were a while ago...hehe laugh a bit...

Cool thread.

This was done for my Art project in Highschool.

And this was done for the nice folks at Sijun.
