Apples and sweets!

Hey guys!
I have been to my frist drawing class... I think it's clear I am no master of shading xD I was so defeated after seeing how good the other guys were! It forced me to take a hard long look at myslef and (thanks to my lovely partner) I've come to the realization that I need to firstly, carry on with the class and take as much out of it as I can, secondly stop aiming at unrealistic targets and most importantly to focus on what I'm good at and work on those strengths. It sounds stupid but I've never had such a bad experience in an art class, I'm usually a quick learner but this time around I felt like the leap from where I am to where the teacher is at might be too big for me. So I'm going to carry on with it, gain some better understanding of digital painting but mostly focus on my cell shaded drawing, making one of my many webcomic ideas into a reality and going back to my work in progress animated series.
The YCH are still coming out this week end (sunday or monday we had a quick change of of plans) at but they will be done the following week. Some of you might know but this week end is Canadian Thanks Giving so we are away apple picking and watching the beautiful autumn colored leaves!
Thanks for understanding the slight delay in the commissions as well as the new ych.
On a funny note, I'm still going to the gym twice a week (only have done so for a month now) and of course, I didn't loose any weight. I put some on =,= This is taking forever, maybe I'll be presentable at xmas @.@
Thanks for reading and have a great week end! :D

I've experienced often the shock of "Wow you're not as good as these guys" altough more from the medium of Video games, whenever i feel abit confident in my play i will have that one person trashing me to let me know there's still another mountain to climb.
Good luck on yo work and draw harder!
Yh it's a good 'get back down here you!' type of realization :P At least, I can only get better right? ....RIGHT!?
