Update and info about about the future and a plea :P
13 years ago
Hey guys Guts here,
Its been awhile hasn't it? Sorry about that I've been pretty busy (it laymen's terms lazy) with college and stuff. I lost my passion for the Eythir series, after re-reading it I felt it was too...fan-ficy so I kinda stopped writing it. Sorry if you actually have been enjoying them and were expecting a new chapter, I just feel like the series wasn't really going anywhere and I tried to put too many "Emotional" scenes in it to draw in audiences and...yeah sorry again.
Now back on to what I've been doing since the last update in April. Well I have started doing a "Let's play" channel on youtube, which I am having fun with, and I've been practicing my drawing when I am in the mood for it, I feel as though I'm a little better but just smidge still not good enough to discern what they are yet though.
Ever since I made this account I knew I was going to have to draw at some point, so I can get these picture ideas out of my head and make some room for other stuff :P But as it currently stands I can't draw anything good enough for people to discern what the heck it is, I can't even draw a wall or a proper hand shape, it comes out all balloony. I am good at copying though, which I've always been good at for some reason, I can copy pictures with almost the same amount of detail but they do have noticeable differences so you can tell its a copy. I have tried copying pictures from some famous people on here and elsewhere like the amazing Mirandleigh and the awesome Angrboda, and they have come out reasonably well. But to me it still doesn't feel like its due to my art skill and its just by random chance that they come out somewhat ok.
I think what I really need is a tutor to teach me the basics of drawing, cause by myself I feel like I'm just trying stuff that is way above my caliber and trying to do too much at once. Its always been like that with new stuff, get someone to teach me cause otherwise I go all over the place and try to do things that don't matter yet. I think its something like I need someone to focus my mind on a task so I can do it efficiently, and not go all higgledy piggledy...I'm sure that that is a syndrome or something I'm not sure, Maybe a dependency syndrome or something?....but I don't depend on them I probably just need teaching :P...now I'm going off track. This is what happens when I get tired :P I go all philosophical and don't really think about what I put online. I'm probably gonna come back tomorrow and read this and go "Oh sh** why did I put that!".
Anyway I guess I'll go out on a limb here and will ask out to any who read this and have knowledge in drawing if they could please teach me how to draw. I know that it seems kinda lazy to ask on here for people, who are probably busy doing their own stuff, to teach me but if you don't ask then you won't know if some kind person is out there who can help (be it teaching me how to draw or directing me to someone who can help). Heck i don't even know if anyone reads these so it might never be seen but there is no harm trying.
So thats all. I hope you all now know where I've been and why Eythir won't be continuing anymore. If anyone is able to teach me drawing please contact me with a pm or something and thank you in advance for the help, it will be greatly appreciated. Well thx for reading this and goodnight all :D
P.S. I have a few short stories in the attic so I'll dust them off and try to finish them soon :P
P.S.S. I might also upload those pictures I copied to show others, probably put them in scraps.
