Description

wanted to update this Improvement meme by popolis but couldn't find same drawings... only few of them ^^;
SO. The update is HERE and let me begin the explanations of drawings xD

2008
#1 Tanaru - VERY first Naruto OC I've ever created. Still love her to death, BUT I somehow can't get myself to draw her TvT
#2 Drawing that I made for ~Pandutea when we were at village. [GOOD OLD TIMES *sighs*] even though the original one is still at her place (I liked this drawing of mine so much, that I made a copy [YES, WITH MY OWN HANDS! I didn't knew anything about scanners back then] :D)
#3 Archangel, or at least how I imagined him to be back then. Later this fella turned into my OC Kamali Kamali Daiichi [OC] by popolis
#4 After I created Tanaru, I decided (after watching some Naruto episodes) to create team for her, so this is Haruto Daisuke, who later turned into Daisuke Daiichi.

2009
#1 Again Tanaru. Used some tutorials for face and eyes, so body still ain't got any CORRECT anatomy //shot O'WELL
#2 If I recall correctly, I started to watch FMA. Got seriously into it and stated to draw fanArts of it.... but now that I think about it [I easily get lost in such things] this drawing might be from 2010.... OR it could be from 2009 end, since miraculously it has wrinkles on coat [MAAAAAAGIC~]
#3 Back then it was random girl, drawn only for the armor, since I was too into such thing. But now she became my OC by the name of Tsuki Satoru Tsuki by popolis
#4 HAHA I remember how I found out about Dragonfable and got REALLY into it |D so she born as mage from there, especially the clothing 8D but now I turned her into OC by the name of Samiko May

2010
#1 Third attempt on Tanaru, at least now she has normal legs |D AAAAND as far as I remember I found out about Akatsuki that year, so I put her in it 8D though ATM I doubt I want her to be that way... 
#2 This year was when Sayuke was born >w< I still love her to death even now 8D but it's been a while since I drew her o.o
#3 MANY tutorials used to get into such state; I mean more dynamic drawings (even though the stance is still like this). Also, meet Miki Sohma, my OC for Fruits Basket, which I found out exactly at 2010.
#4 Close up headshot of firstly unknown girl, which later became my Byakugan OC Yukiko


2011
#1 Sayuke drawing~ I still don't know whether she has sister, but Pandutea created one OC, who later (one time probably) was counted as her sis. Though I want to see both of them together again xD Also, anatomy gotten slightly better!
#2 This one was drawn EXACTLY the same time I was watching this movie xD (catwoman) it took me about whole movie time to finish it (note that I was laying in bed 8D)
#3 Simple sketch I drew during school, as far as I remember. But I liked it too much, so I ripped the page and put into my drawings collection 8D
#4 
JaeJoong. YES I STARTED DRAWING REAL PEOPLE!! somehow. Even though I remember that I've started to do it at 2010, I couldn't find any of these drawings ^^; [my love for Jaejoong a.k.a. Hero from DBSK (now JYJ) is still strong]


2012
#1 Hero Eiyu Raikoga. I adored this drawing to death, but still it wasn't colored TvT probably I was afraid to fail.  Up till this day I think it looks cute x3 (even if there're lots of mistakes)
#2 Raikoga family gotten wider, probably reached 100+ OCs this year. Here, Koku Raikoga. I failed miserably at his pose, but eh, I couldn't do any better back then ^^; (even though I erased and started over again for like 10 times xD)
#3 DIGITAL ERA BEGAN. I skipped all those GIMP and ArtRage drawings, since they were just simple sketches. Instead, I went to this, which was drawn with SAI. Horos Raikoga, also known as shapeshifter into Cerberus. Most recent version of him --> Horos by popolis
#4 The drawing I loved back then and kind of hate right now. Because of anatomy 8D but still, this was my best drawing that year, I do believe.


2013
#1 First appearance of ZAAGA this year!~ and that probably was my most successful/best even to remember x3 Also shades gotten better this year, used a lot of tutorials to improve x3
#2 THIS. Was my best drawing of that year (even though I drew it by the end of year ^^;). Featuring Hero Eiyu Raikoga and Pandutea's OC Sori NoDanna. IF I recall correctly, this was for her to brighten her day, since it wasn't the best week for get TvT
#3 Used a bit of reference for piano and pose, but still like the outcome. Hero again [I was in love with him that year along Zaaga, kay?]
#4 This was the drawing of adopted OC which was bought from Nine-Broken-Clocks [I should draw him more though TvT]


2014
#1 This is what I call HUGE improvement. I made short break in the beginning of the year, if I remember correctly, only to draw traditionally, so that I could improve more. The result was this. Face, eyes, body; everything changed. This style remained up till now, maybe anatomy improved slightly by now.
#2 The Four Winds. I still love DEEPLY this project, very attached to it and its characters. Need to finish at least 1st chapter by 10th of April, since I want to send it to Anime Nights manga contest >w<
#3 New chibi style was developed this year [as well as cel-shade], about at September-October, when I met my BFF/waifu acurate. And I tried it out on ronigaara's OC Roni [was seriously happy with the result]
#4 Har'Gher! This god damn sexy demon is the most fave of all my demon OCs, since his DEMON form is amazing (even though I still haven't drew it TvT)

2015
THIS YEAR. Tried to improve, at least managed to do so on animals and chibis.
#1 Experiment with cell-shade/cell-highlights.
#2 One of few drawings I'm still happy about, from anatomy to shades.
#3 Recent chibi style, I tried so much to improve. Finally decided to stop in searching styles and stop by improving this one.
#4 My precious Zaaga. Here I wanted to try out a bit different hair shading or more like, I had forgotten my previous shading, so went with the one I used for fur. Plus face structure improved a bit.


Hopefully in 2016 I will be more happy with my art than I am now. =w= (which is not very much of happy)

Woah, that's a true gem over here
Funny that you remember the chronological order of your old drawings though :o
