Hey man, I hope you feel better. I've gone though that as well, and it will happen repeatedly forever. I think that's just part of being an artist. It's good that you took some time to work on your own thing. I'm looking forward too seeing what you have when you get back into it!

Thanks a lot for the kind words. It´s kinda of a rollercoaster for me right now, sometimes I wake up and feel like freaking Leonardo da Vinci, other times I feel like a 4 year old who picked up a pencil for the first time XD. I guess I´m just afraid that Il look at my art in like 3 years from now and see no improvement. Í think that the style I use when drawing furries also helps me feel this way, because I just dont know where to start to improve them... One of my biggest references when it comes to furry art is OrlandoFox ( don´t konw if you´ve heard of him/her, if you haven´t go check it out because he`s amazing); I just love the way he draws anthros for some reason, so I guess that´s what I´m aiming for... Anyway, I´m starting to write a huge comment again, so I guess I´l just stop XD Thank you once again for the comment.

Improvement is what every good artist is aiming for. These struggles, I know them. I don't draw (you know you made the Ref sheet for me :D) but I make music, which is also a craft of a similar kind when it comes to these things. I read somewhere (in a guide for music production) that there comes a time in your learning process where you get in this very state you are in right now. I was there too, and I still think I am not past it yet. Everyone goes through that, no matter what craft you learn. But I caught that you will continue practicing, and that's good. Very good :D
So you are changing your style, trying out different things. That's nice. Cleans up your head, gives you a new perspective. But I gotta say, the ref sheet you made for me is still my favourite picture. Believe me. I've only gotten compliments and people were asking me about it, about who made it and I mentioned you and said I'd recommend you anytime, because you obviously know what you do. So, don't be insecure about your art. It's good, it really is! You gave the little foxxo idea in my head a wonderful body and face and I still can't thank you enough for that :D
I for my part see little improvements in every picture you drew. And if you want to improve it further, that's fine. But give it time. It's not gonna happen over night. And I'm also sure that you can do it!
So, like the other fox said, I'm looking forward to see more from you ;)
Take care :)

Thank´s for the kind comment. I get what you mean, but I´m still a little scared, specially about the fact that my style ha sbeen chahing.

You said you really liked the ref sheet I made for you right? Well, what if people actually prefer my old style over the one I currently have?!
you guys haven´t seen it yet, but specially the eyes are more disney like and smaller. It got to the point where I feel like my new style is less original than my old one.

I prefer the way my art looks now, but the way I drew before was probably more iconic and different from the rest. Hell, there´s an artist I've been specially looking up to lately, wich is Orlandofox; I´ve just fell in love with the way he draws furries, the way he captures expressivenes, the harmony between anatomy, cartoony body and form he uses....It´s all so.... perfect for me.

When I look at it , I think "that´s the way I want me furry art to look". Thing is, because I´ve been looking at his/her art lately so much, I recently did a drawing I was really proud of, but then when I took a look and compared it to the drawings she/he does.... they look basically the same in style!

So now I feel like I´m copying someone, literally stealling the way they draw and loosing my originality and what makes my art !"mine" along the way... I don´t want to be known as that type of artist, but I just think that her style is so close to what I want my furry art to look like, that I end up copying her style almost instintivly! Anyway, just though I´d say this, becuase right now I´m kinda scared to start posting again here, and to show people my new art style, that isn´t really mine and feels like it was stolen from someone else... damn, it feels like art style is a race, and because I came in so late, a lot of places have already been taken, and my options are much more limited...

The most important thing is that you are comfortable with your art. You like drawing like him? Well, then do it. There is really nothing you have to be scared of. And you don't "steal" his art style, I don't think that. I think most people that like his art style will be glad that there is one more artist that has it. But anyways...
Why not have more art styles? It's always good to have more art styles up his sleeve. And after some time you develop your own style, you probably won't even notice.
I tell you one more time. Don't be scared. The people here are nice. All they do is enjoy art. And as I said, your art is and was good, no matter what art style you have.
And if you prefer the way your art looks now, you have the goddamn right to draw like that. Because the most important thing is that you are happy with your pictures.
Honestly, the more I type the more I'm curious to see your recent works ^^
*hugs*

Jesus, it still amazes me how there are such nice poeple on the internet... We´re always used to hearing crap about everyone online, and how furries are just creepy perverts, but then you actually talk to them and you discover that they're some of the nicest and most caring people you can find online.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my coments and reply with so much care and though. I don´t really know you, but I can imagine you´d be a wonderful person to talk to in real life...

I'l keep pushing trough, and hope that things will eventually get better. Anyway, since there´s this screen between us, I´l just send you a virtual hug *hugs*

Things always get better, believe me. So like you said, keep pushing through and you'll get through :)
You got this.
