You're making a lot of progress!

Really like the images in 74 and 75. They almost go together--one with lots of orange-yellow and a little blue, the other with lots of blue and a bit of orange-yellow. In 74, I like how you've got the smoke swirling behind him so he stands out.

Sorry you get depressed. Just ride those cycles out, maybe read some good books. It builds the visual library, but doesn't require a whole lot of mental/emotional energy. Don't sweat the lost time. I'm guessing you make up for it when your work drive and focus returns. Chances are, when you're in a "work mode," you can focus better and longer than the average person.

Socializing is good! And if you don't feel super social, but have to be there anyway, just think of it as an opportunity to study different facial features. :)

Also, my little daughter says the dragon in 73 is a "cool picture." And it is. I like how it's coming right at you, claws extended.

[vansty]

Tygerson, thanks for comment made my day, and i just stated to read books again, its suprising how many cool ideas you get from reading.

A sketch for my next piece, when i wake up i'll do some studies and build the anatomy.

[vansty]

wip. the saturation is killing me.

[vansty]

i'm going to have drop this one, i'm so unhappy with it. i may pick it back up after christmas.
