Draw This Again: Maraby =NanFe

Contests / 2012 / Draw This Again Challenge

Paint this specially for Draw This Again Contest:
Draw This Again ContestBack to School

The air is crisp and the leaves are changing, which can only mean one thing - school is back in session! DeviantART is celebrating the new school year with an improvement-themed contest, inspiring interviews, and an opportunity to help those in need.

To celebrate artistic growth, we're turning one of deviantART's most popular memes, Draw This Again, created by the amazing *Bampire, into a site wide contest. We're challenging you to take a piece from your past and draw it again to show how you've grown. Use the template below to submit your past and new work as a single entry to the Draw This Again Contest.

My Original Character: Mara

Mara 2010:

the new one will be submitted the day after for bigger size. (you know I love showing big picture)

Then, let me sing the song of my people...

At first, I was thinking about doing a remake a piece from my Bleach "weird" series "Season Apart to gain more supports, hahaha, but I think it's time for my OC, Mara (since this girl still on her dream hiatus trip).

It was really hard to choose from my gallery because I tend to clean up them frequent

I think myself has been improving a lot, as you all can see I always submit at least one artwork everyday for practicing, as the promise of A 365 day art 1 year ago, you know 1% skill, 99% practicing by your flesh and blood ;_________;

One of the reason I decided to do this "draw something everyday", is thanks to Bleach's Fans for their supports, that I wanted to produce better products for you all (Bleach always has special meaning to me you know).

well then,

Thank You.

I don't really think that one is better than the other, they're just two different styles, and are both great.

~kkoorime Apr 24, 2013 General Artist

The drawing style on the Before worked well with the image because the color contrast and the details on the hair made it look simple but gothic. However, the After is definitely prettier, especially the face!

It also shows a sense of maturity (in my opinion), in a way that you don't need to use fishnets, chains, and dark colors in order to make something look dark and gothic.

And so I was wondering, did you ever upload the After image? I tried browsing your gallery, but I couldn't seem to find it.

omg, huge difference...really says alot about how much you've been practicing

~Podtxt Feb 25, 2013

I like the first more, its a little psycho. The new one has both character and background blue, and much less contrast between her face and her hair. Id suggest more dramatic colouring.
