I think I'll post this in intermidiate? This is a type of goldfish. This picture really tested my paticence, it took so long.

The Author of the book is a sweet, 91 yr old Southern Gentleman. He writes a fictional tale about a lonely old man who's lost everything and everyone in his life except for one granddaughter and her husband, who have housed him away in a home for Seniors.
The old man escapes his ''prison'' and walks the few miles to his childhood home, "Glencarren Plantation" set in Civil War time. Along his way, he replays memories of growing up and joining the army to fight the Southern battle.

Okay it's done. I was like "Fuck it" with the background, so I turned it black. I'll fix it later, when I'm not feeling so lazy. Thanks Shults for helping me with the fire.

And you said they wouldn't notice our thongs

Hello! I'm new to the boards and haven't drawn with any oekaki esc program in forever. I love this 2draw board you guys got. <3 After I figured it out it was very nice to work with. This is a self portrait from a photo that I had. I don't think it really looks like me... The camera distorted the features and everything is too big.

I could do more with it, but I'm happy with the way it is now and I've been sitting too long and have drunk too much Monster. Long story short I'm all jittery. XD Which doesn't make for a steady hand.

Anyway, I know I messed up with the nose but ah well. I didn't feel like completely redoing it so it looks funny.

Realism practice. :D

And, I dunno where to place this, so it's here for now unless someone moves it. >.> Not sure what classifies as what here so yeah...

I'm oober doober proud of this picture for one reason alone: Itachi doesn't look gay! Well, to me anyway...

Any way, this is Itachi Uchiha, my fave male Anime character, and Sakura Haruno, my fave female Anime character. They are both from Naruto. Itachi is basically the bad guy, (even though he's more of a good guy acting like a bad guy) and Sakura is the all around good girl. She's kind of annoying at first, but later in the series she's bad ass.

Finally done!!! Woot!!!

Sorry about putting this draw on advanced board....but there was no way that I could "squeeze" this pic on a smaller board. I did use a ref pic.....the original picture was done by an artist by the name of Georgia Lesley. She draws beautiful aniimals, and I'm trying to learn as much as I can. I'm posting this as "finished", because I'm tired of working on it.....I may go back to it later and do some more work on it, and I want to get it out of my "unfinished draws". I like these tigers......but I know they're not perfect......I need more practice on doing "fur".....but it was fun "trying"....."lol"! :)
