Holy crap your art is perfect for studying and practicing. Thank you so much for making so many anatomy tutorials and just generally showing how you crafted most of your drawings!

Didn't say nothing you didn't deserve! Not enough people show their process and your technique is a really great way for someone with little experience to build something decent.

thanks again!
over the years i was very fortunate to have the opportunity to learn from some very good instructors. even after my art education ended i continued to study and practice.
some very important things to always keep in mind are-
-build a good simple understanding of the basics (structure, proportion, perspective, anatomy)
-learn how to break down any form into basic shapes (keep it geometric, keep it simple)
-learn to draw loose (don't be afraid to draw sketchy)
-don't worry if a drawing doesn't come as you'd hoped (it's all just practice)

thank you very much
and i'm very flattered you enjoy my Batman art.
it's helpful to study a good variety of other artists and pick and chose the traits that you enjoy from each.
as much as i have always enjoyed comic style art, i blend what i've picked up from classical artists into my comic art and vice versa.

Yeah, that's what I try to do, it's a fun way of developing my "own" style, sorta, because there's a lot of great Batman artists, and I can see the classical influence in all of your work, not only Batman's, that's pretty amazing I have to say.
I'm pretty sure you won't remember, but I've known DeviantArt for a few years, and I made an account back then, and, I had the opportunity to ask you if I could do a rendition of your work (myconius.deviantart.com/art/Ba⦠), which you said yes, it was a long time ago, I don't even remember my username, but can I reupload it if I find it again? It was one of the best pieces I've drawn since I started this journey, honestly, because my skills at that time were nonexistant hahahaha.

oh yeah! that's right! yes, of course you can repost it. Β
just do the proper credit and linking of the original like before and we're all good.
thanks for asking.

You're awesome man hahahaha, of course I will!
I'll let you know when it's uploaded, it has to be with a giant folder full of papers from two years ago, when I started drawing again, it will be hard, but I'll find it for sure

i've been hanging in there as best as i can, still moving forward with the ongoing quest for ever expanding artistic knowledge.
how are things by you?

Almost! hahaha, one more year of university left, then I have to go into the real world haha :L
Its good to hear that you're well, I've been lurking about looking at all your work and studies and they look incredible as always!
Yeah good thank you! Just been really really busy, uni really threw me for a loop this year, so its nice to have a little bit more time to work on some more personal pieces now, I hope!

myconius In reply to DragonGirl787 [2016-06-11 13:41:40 +0000 UTC]
wow! that's unreal!! one year left? where the heck did the time go??
glad you've enjoyed the studies, as dorky as it sounds i find them incredibly fun to draw.
well it's always great to see you drawing your dragons.
but just remember if you're limited in your own time for personal creativity, you can always squeeze in a few sketches in the pad.
you can do smaller studies that'll lead up to doing the larger intended piece.

I know, its absolutely crazy, I don;t want to go into the real world hahaha xD
They look amazing and are always cool to see! Makes me feel like Β should be doing more studies for practice, i kind fo let some of my life drawing practice and such fall by the wayside beneath all my uni studies! so trying to pick up some speed with them again haha
Yeah very true! I always try to keep my little notebook on me to try cram some kind of meaningful, or crappy doodle in there xD
so what have you been up to? Keeping well I hope!

myconius In reply to DragonGirl787 [2016-06-28 17:08:14 +0000 UTC]
absolutely PERFECT analogy right there!!!!
between creating somethingΒ meaningful versus a drawing crappy doodle just to keep in practice.
