After a really long dry spell on the artistic front, i finally got out of it 2 great pics in the last 3 days!

Nathan: the main character from my story


And Elnathan: the Master Vampire of Yorkshire


One day, i hope to turn my story into a comic. I really need to get practicing my drawing skills for that! 

I hope you all like 

You draw very well. Have you ever thought of becoming an artist as a career?

I'm jealous.  You can colour with markers and NOT HAVE IT SUCK.

Jealous jealous jealous....  Seriously.  NOT fair.

You're a good artist, Wishfire!

Yeah, looks like your drawing skills are pretty amazing already!

I went to art college for 3 years and before that did 2yrs at school for my GCSE's. I ended up hating it in the end. I didn't like the grading systembecause you have to do things the way they tell you to... you cant just produce something thats you're own and they say "Yeah thats good, you pass."  They grade you on their techniques and i couldn't do that.

College?

Wishfire... how old are you?  Are you older than me?  I'm 20.

i am 22... today 

Sht... i just said my age! 

Bonne fete a toi!  Bonne fete a toi!  Bonne fete, bonne fete bonne fete a toi!

And yes.  I AM too lazy to do the correct accents.  Yes, I know where they are, but the keyboard shortcut for one of them escapes my poor brain at present.

Wanna be my big brother cause you rock and like Gundam Wing?  And can draw?

cant i be your little brother? 

Well done these rock! Wishy & happy birthday!

Wishy, you are very good, an artist doesn't need a college to make its mark,
its just about having confidence in what you produce and being able to sell it.

With a portfolio of your best work you get good work as a graphic artist anywhere I think.

Nice pics, you're very talented from the looks of it.

But I've lost count of my little brothers... I have at least 3 biologically.  And at least 5 by choice... And a twin. I only have 2 big brothers.  If you really want to be my older little brother, i suppose it can be arranged.  But I'll bet you're larger than me.  I'm rather petit(e).

the grand vampire of Yorkshire looks very like a friend of mine from Wakefield

That's how good you draw, Wishy.  I want to date your grand vampire.

You have a right to be proud Wishy..

The drawings are great!

don't you worry about grades. Dave Brubeck wanted to play piano his own way, and so he refused to learn how to read music. needless to say, it didn't hurt his career in the least. do what you love, your own way.

My mum is a very talented piano player. She cant read music either and she has been refused jobs because of it. But she plays better than those who do read music. It's quite a talent to say the least!

Really good, Wishy. You definitely have talent.
