Digital It's Been 9 Years and I'm Still Learning

[Miracle Corgi]

EDIT - Coding a post is something I have to get better at, too :') RIP sorry if you care to read whatever ends up below:

The left is from 2009, the right is from something I just finished a couple of minutes ago. It's pretty shocking to see the difference, but honestly for the two being separated by 9 years really just shows I haven't been making as much progress/spending enough time on my digital art for the last couple of years lmao. But I mainly just wanted to post the two side by side for anyone who might be starting out, because I'm sure the progress you'll make will be incredible!
I still have a lot of learning to do about how to really get the best use out of programs as well.
Another surprising thing to realize is that I somehow drew the right in about an hour and some, and the left I'm pretty sure took a big chunk of my afternoon?

FUN STUFF, MIGHT FIND MORE OF MY 2009 WORK AND DO IT AGAIN SOMETIME, but its honestly been the first digital piece I've finished in about a year or two, so it takes a lot of drive for me to really finish something on my computer.

Ohh yea this is great! And definitely inspiring for everyone who is just starting out or feeling not very confident!

Good job on that, your improvement is visible. And that you managed to complete it much faster also shows you have greater skill now.
As for the time span, well, everyone is learning at their own pace, it's fine.

I kinda want to do that too at some point, and redraw an old picture xD you inspired me to try ~

Go for it! I always wanted to do something like this in 2009/my early years but I didn't have much to work with lol but it is fun!
