After visiting your gallery, it does not surprise me that Fairy light is the only one of my works that you would like. Perhaps you would like my other account better? [link] I made Charcoal-iris to feature my anime/manga exclusively. I was attempting to dissociate my usual style from my anime/manga attempts. (Though there are still some anime manga works on my other account but those are mainly from before I made this account)

life got busy. who's life isn't.
Actually this account is mostly an expirament. I typically do not draw anime/manga style. I love to watch and read anime/mangas. I also love the style but my art tends to be in the field of realism. I personally don't consider my anime/manga art to be very good so I am putting up my anime/manga art to see what people think of it.

Thankyou so much for reccommending her to me. She is amazing! you are right she has this blend of anime/manga with more realistic hues, proportions, and shading.
hmm your current age is... what the heck!?.... okay well you are older than 12 since that is when you sorta started drawing manga/anime. ... how old are you?
I personally have only started really attempting to draw anime/manga for the last 2 years. for the most part I can not get the faces right. A lot of what I would post are faceless because I can draw bodies but not anime/manga faces to my satisfaction. I am considering just posting them as is anyways.

hmm 14....hmm I wish I could draw as well as you at 14. wow, I feel old. nah, not really. That is one of the things I love about DA or other community art sites is you have people of all age ranges in variance of skill.

Well, I can defiently tell you that I have drastically improved since I first started. And especially in the last few months. Yeah you have nailed one of the biggest problems I have had in the past is I don't use refereneces. I used to feel like that a true artist did not uses references. yeah that is a load of bunk which I now know is bunk. Which is why I have drastically improved in the last few months because I got a couple books and I began drawing practices from them.

lol, don't ignore your schooling too much. It sets a bad presidence for the rest of your schooling career. Believe me, I home schooled through high school. And I was not one of those kids that was self motivated to actually do my school work. And now I am in college and still not motivated to do school work .

Anyways, thankyou for the encouragment.

80s are good. I think having a B average is fine. And I was not meaning to sound fogey and give you a lecture if that is the way it sounded.
lol, nah I don't mind my age, to be honest. I am not going to be one of those people who are 30, 5 years in a row.
Isn't weird sometimes what the human body can naturally do? You know when you look at a pic and it looks odd because the form and direction of the hand seems wrong? man, from some angles our hands or bodies look so strange, unpractical, and unreal.
