Thanks I'm sure I'll get much better when I get photoshop. Quite excited to get it, that way I won't be stuck with the 'paint' program anymore, lol. A lot of these date back to over a year ago. They did take awhile to do, but they were spread out over time.

An update for me here. I've been wanting to get back into drawing for quite some time, and tonight I finally went ahead and bought a sketchpad, some charcoal pencils, and some pastels. Since I haven't drawn anything in over 5 years, I decided to just pick something at random to test my skill level. I chose a photo of Anya from one of my old calendars. I first drew her in pencil, and then in pastels. It's hard for me to get used to using pastels again, since the last time I used them was about 9 years ago. I think for my next drawings I'm going to try out colored pencils to see which version I like using best. Here's Anya: Please pardon the photo, I don't have a scanner yet, so not all the details show up. -Jess

Fantastic drawing Jess. I think for someone that hasn't drawed for 5 years. And you've even used pastels it's deffinatley a 8/10. You captured Emma's likeness extreamly well. And it's a beautiful drawing. Maybe next time you could try using brighter colours as Anya to me was always a bright characters

Thanks I was going to use bright colors on the background, but I was going for a similiar look to the calendars' background. I'll expirement more with colors on my next drawings. The sketch itself only took about an hour to do, the pastels took about 2 hours.
