I was going though my stuff, and found some of the stuff i did in art class. one thing i always like was this scratch art deal we had to do. where it was this black top where you scratch it to get to the white stuff underneth (not sure what that stuff is called. anyways, i made this while i was in 11th grade. and was really into FLCL. so I made a a scratch art of a page from the manga. I seem to only be really good at drawing if i have something to look at and trace with my eyes.
here the image i used.

and here was what i made.

i think i did pretty good.
there where two other pic i was going to use, but i just sketched it up before picking the image.
Here one of Canti in a bad a** way.

and Haruko and Naota

I don't know what it is, but i love Hajime Ueda's art style.
