Melan Blue:

I have some suggestions for you:

1. References: I think you need to work with your references more closely, don't be afraid to be accused of stealing or copying, copying is a way to learn.

I can design some assignments for you to reach your goal of adopting other artist's styles and come up with your own.

After you have mastered copying the manga, which majorly is lines and seeing the differences of lines... you can move to copying photograph, that should help you in developing your observations.

At the same time, I can also assign still life assignments for you to practice with.

Sounds like a plan! Thank you VERY much.

Now, ah, when did you want that 100 gold?

Now three people are on the self-improvement program.

You have all the time you need for the assignments I give you, take your time but do them as soon as possible so you can follow up with me quickly.

In my experience, when it's dragged too long the practice is rendered useless or will never be done.

Docs, I need help! xd

I totaly lack inspiration for original stuffs, I've even tried to draw stuffs I usualy don't, but that didn't help much. sweatdrop
I'm not too selfconfident, but I usualy have a bunch of ideas, now the're just gone.

There's this entrance "test" going on for an animation college.
I just can't do anything right, but I have done a few sketches I'm working on. XD

What do you think they are looking for?

Working like an animator = childhood dream come true!
The deadline is te 6th... crying

wow, that's hard on you.
I checked your site for a bit. ^^ You got pretty nice stuff (oh yeah, i am going for animation also. ^_^)

Original stuff huh? Just a few days before the entrance test to whip up stuff is madness.
Lemme think what might help you...

The lack of interest in your original stuff is because you are probably paying more attention to other existing titles right now. After a while of neglect, you will find it hard to come back to your own.

You got some interesting stuff with school work, you should keep exploring the possbilities, and think in the way of "how to translate them into the form of art You Like."

For your solution... *its a tough one*
I think it's the word "play" and just let things come to you~ @@ If you have your own characters, play with them, if you need inspiration, take what you are already interested in and add them together *like Naruto, I believe*
As you develop from the fandom you have, adding your own originality, you can begin to branch out and have your own work.

But being an animator, I think a stronger porfolio will be including gesture drawing of all kinds of motion, and strong style adoption. If you can adopt styles of others, it will make you a good animator. And animator really works with mechanical drawing styles, so practice that will help you too. ^_^
That's what I can suggest for you. smile

Humm... awkay, plenty of school stuffs are being hard on me too, they've been in the way for a while and the coming week is the 4 days vocational exam! (an exam tomorrow too though) gonk
Well, my friends are supporting me very much through this. xd

So, I only have time on my hands to do this this week, evengh tough I've had plenty of time to do this. around 3 weeks or so. ^^; Mummy was very cruel to me a week ago and erazed away all my motivation and stuffs. ^^


Thank you for the advices!
(I actually can't work properly without some real pressure. it also says on the paper that I must be prepared for short dadlines, I guess this is good training. biggrin )

One last question: do you think teachers will let me work on this during some classes? I haven't told them anything yet. XD; *slowpoke*

Hmm... those are valid practices for art class... I believe they should support you when it's aiming for colleges. They may not take anime, but they will certainly take gesture drawing, mechanical drawing practices. smile Get perspective right will help too. When you have to draw the "turning" you will need it. (oh god those angle drives me nuts to draw)

[Fyuzin]

Gonna be a little though not drawing manga. sweatdrop
But luckily I'm used to draw other things as well, I'll vary the styles in my submissions, that's a good thing, right?

Ehm, mechanical drawing practices?

Yup, variety is a upper hand.
Mechanical drawing practices... basically it's somethign like this: http://www.drawthrough.com/tutorials/perspectives.html

That's the basic of mechanical drawing... but that's all you need. You don't have to go deep into that. ^^

[Fyuzin]

Holly...! eek
I hope we'll learn about that in college. sweatdrop

Thank you again for all the advices! XD

[mayshing]

You are welcome. :3 Come again and tell your friends in need.
I will try to be of help.
