I wish I could draw like Bri... I mean, I've got the technical aspects down pretty well, but my characters always look sort of stiff.
falls down your art is beautiful lucca

I agree with Sunny :'3! *Hugs Lucca*

Aww, well, I'm glad you think so. I just wish I could be less technical and more spontaneous, y'know?

Well, there is a method that I could suggest if you wish to improve the spontaneous work you describe <3

When I was in college getting my AA degree, my Drawing 3 class drew nude models all semester. Part of that class was to loosen your technical response to art and to be more fluid and suggestive with your lines. You only got a single minute to draw what you could of the current pose, then you had toss that sheet aside and draw the next pose that the model switched to. Doing this for 2 hours each day for a semester was a HUGE ordeal for me since I use to be very tedious with my lines. But since that class, I have no problems being more spontaneous. Granted I may produce a dozen sketches of poses I wish to use for something I want to draw, but it helps keep your mind fresh and keeps your hand loose. I would suggest having a friend, family member, or your man to pose for you and to change their pose on a timer of 1 minute. Granted I say this in regards that these people don't have to be nude X'D (Course when it comes to your boyfriend, who knows? 8'D Hee hee <3). Clothed models are just as good as long as they don't where UBER baggy clothes.

Doing this for a few minutes for a few days a week can have a great turn out <3

Umm...for the wig FAQ, you putted a pre-approved list. Does that mean it'll be okay to use your edits in those shops. Or we always have to ask even if they are on the list?

If so, then is it okay if I use this base for this shop's 1000 page hit edit

I draw mostly girls so I'd have to find a really supportive friend instead of asking Hubby to pose for me. *laugh*

I'm having a moment where I'm in awe of the variety of outfits people can put together. I remember being so proud of my Black Sleeveless Silk Top + Cool Basic Skirt + Felicia's Gloves + Black Goth Boots combination. XD

XD I do heart my Blind Ninja something fierce!

I had something similar when I took a Drawing class. The model did the same thing, it was a ton of fun drawing the model in a whole bunch of poses.
