Yeah, lately I've been stricken by the same recurring mental illlness that I get afflicted by everytime I get a good project/idea in mind, and land on somebody else's work that just seems one-hundred-times-better than mine...

But I've decided. I won't go look at other's work for inspiration (besides potential fanart), I will look at tutorials only and ONLY if I'm really stuck for a part of the drawing, not when I get depressed that I can't do it myself and ask others for help. I will only draw origial work without (much) help from anybody...

Which reminds me. I will start making more... mature artwork. You know what that means. And yes, I might even start drawing adult artwork, but I still have to decide on that. And of course, I still have to practice some more; I have been drawing so little lately besides doodles, that my abilities have gotten rusty, and I'm having trouble keeping regularity even in doodles of the same character... So I must work on that.

Oh and this takes me to my next part... I will from now on only be submitting colored (digital) art. I will only submit sketches before them while I make them into colored/digital. Then that sketch will be moved to scraps. Only exception to that will be sketches that will have high acclaim and such.

There. I've said pretty much all I wanted to say...
