  @carlianne @K-Flagg Thank you both for your input! I appreciate it! Here is the clean line version. Coloring is always a daunting step for me. Hopefully I can get some colors that work together to keep the Halloween feel.

  @Kori-Jensen Kind of sort of! I have some character drawings and a couple of character turn-arounds, but thats about it. I'm usually not the best at making myself sit down and make in-depth character drawings. It's something I want to get better at though

  The past month I have been getting into setting aside an hour to sketch, like when I did the Little Tiger draw every day project and I have been drawing different things, sometimes bears or unicorns or my dogs, just drawing. Now, I have lots of pages of drawings that could possibly be a picture. I like to create word lists that you create by word association then you can stretch you imagination and come up with new ideas for illustrations. This picture is what I came up with after I drew some unicorns.

  Yeah, eff those pretty looking sketchbooks. I usually keep one at a time and get a new one once i filled it with a dumpsterfire of failed ideas and uninteligible writing (cuz even my caligraphy is ugly af). I also try to use most of the page so i have tons of bad drawings stacking on top of each other, intertwined with ideas for a stories that i eventually end up forgeting. I used to care a little about my sketchbooks when i was younger, but i always became frustrated or embarased when one of my drawings was a failure, so i was even scared to use them to try new ideas or techniques. I think that it was in a podcast called "lets fight a boss" where i heard one of the host say that she always intentionally ruins the first pages of her sketchbooks so she can stop caring about it looking pretty and just concentrate on what really is important. I tried that advice and never looked back, its nice to scribble around, not really caring about having a good result and just think all over the page.

  Thank you @Heather-Boyd! I think I got to the point feeling like “enough, finished not perfect!” Lee’s a master!

  @willicreate Wow! Thank you so much! I haven't used inkscape, but I'm willing to try it. I'll try to keep the shadows in mind for the lighting, but I will say that I was deliberately focusing on the highlights for this one because I hadn't done much of that before. That's no excuse for bad shading, but I felt it was worth pointing out. I've look up Jaegers for reference, but I suppose that getting an actual model where I can play with the angles and lighting would be very beneficial. I'm deeply grateful that you took the time to make that guide. Once again thank you. @TaniaGomesArt I will certainly go back into the fundamentals. I have a couple art books that friends gave me a while back, and I never really studied because they looked boring, but I think I will start by going through them and doing all the exercises that I can find. @Oana I did use the straight line tool for everything that I could in order to work around my inexperience with a tablet, but I will try to avoid that when I can. Thanks for the size reduction tip, and all the other advice. There's no way that I can thank all you people enough for all that you've done for me. Thank you

  @CLCanadyArts that’s a great idea! I usually work on my couch which is probably a really dumb idea‍️I think I’ll try some different positions for working now

  Thank you @K-Flagg . I am glad that adding the butterfly gave the effect that I wanted @Mari1-9Munive This character is starting to have a life of it's own in my head, I think I am going to make some more paintings with him, maybe even a story or a comic. I have a couple of ideas in mind.
