Rotohail's "Reclusive" SketchBook

[Rotohail]

Discipline is the steam that never disappoint that  my two cent.Having goal is one thing but valuing them is an other thing.How can an artist value is own work if he work in a vacuum?When people value what we do it as incredible effect on us of course but we have to have discipline to persevere in moment were we doubt of were own value.Even pro artist doubt of there own value it the struggle of any artist self doubt is the juice that keep us going it essential to the growth of an artist.

So deep! And true. In my case it isn't more value but interaction. Like I don't care much when people say good or bad, I care when someone comes and tells me, "hey, did you think of adding this or that?" or "oh, this made me think about some childhood show or something that makes me really happy (or some other emotion)", that is what I enjoy and seek. Those connections?
But yeah, sometimes also you draw something and it looks good or bad, but you can't be really sure until you ask. Sometimes what you see wrong people don't pay attention, or what you see as great people don't care about, so is best to keep in touch. But I also don't want to be dragged down into nowadays social media focus. Produce, produce, produce. Get digital numbers on your page. People no longer leave feedback, they leave likes. Don't know sometimes if there's an actual person behind that tick or just someone fiddling with the numbers ha ha.

Also thanks for the suggestions over my introduction post. I did narrow down why I was having pains on my arm and as of late everything is good. I do take rest also. Usually do 60-90min drawing sessions with 20min breaks in between.

Welcome! I'll comment with some detail in the days to come but for the time being I suggest that you post your WIPs to get the dialog going.

Hey! Thanks! Well most of what I do are technically WIPs, like I should be working more stuff and cleaning, refining, so fire away at anything! ha.

I like what I see. Lots of cool poses, characters, compositions, etc. The girl with the sword, blue hair and horns is one of my favorite character pieces in here, the skeleton knight and the elf archer are quite cool too.

Hey! Thanks very much! I honestly was really happy with how that demon girl on that charging pose turned out, I should had done the hair better though. I hope I can do better on the future! Also glad you liked those. Did you like them because of the action pose? Or something about the style/appearance? What did you like basically? Those things are what I treasure most to know. So I can narrow down what to focus/work on.


Leaving the page I was working on for last week theme I was going for. I rushed the last one and I should be focusing more on doing better shadow shapes, and not doing random strokes as much. I think the energy turned out alright but very noisy, probably the face could use more exaggeration/expression.
