So I'll be honest and say that this is probably not the best sort of improvement, but an improvement nonetheless.
The only memory I recall was that the picture made in March 16th, 2006 was not the very first one, but merely the first picture of my fursona that was actually the entire body. I remember having ideas of a fox character, but I only drew the head, which was not much different from the one you see in 2006.
Vaguely do I remember thinking that a fox felt like the combination of a cat and dog in terms of personality, which was what later led me to believe that the fox best represented me. I really didn't think that the fox was this cultural mascot of the furry fandom, though I still don't regret my decision.
Clearly, the design itself hardly changed, but I always felt like I was willing to both accept my creative take on my imagination with a sort of reality. In other words, I never really liked the idea of changing fursonas like one changes clothes. Tim is clearly me based on how I accept myself in fantasy, but I also accept that my ideas stay on paper and screen and not reality.
Speaking of reality, Tim shares my first name (duh!) and the last name, Daermott, is actually an alteration of a far-back relative name of mine. His personality is pretty much the same as mine. One of the few things not like myself is that Tim doesn't wear glasses, but I actually do. I guess I just never enjoyed the idea of glasses in a character like Tim, so I scrapped them and never figuratively looked back.
But yeah, design-wise...what can I say? I've improved with some of the posing and I'm actually digitally tracing and coloring my images from sketch to software.
Is there anything that I haven't gotten worse at? Well believe it or not, yes...and that would be my inconsistent time drawing. Around the time of 2006 was when I was actually motivated to draw for the first time. Everything seemed new as someone who quickly became a Klonoa fan and started learning about furry culture. I don't know what actually happened, but that excitement drastically decreased as I got older. I haven't been sure if I just felt reality slap me in the face too much or what. But if there's anything that I want to revive in me again, it's the excitement as I create art consistently once more.
Yes, I do believe that I have greatly improved, but I know that I can improve far greater if I take more and more time to draw, create, or even work on game-making. I need to not let society bring me down and look up even when things in life just don't make sense.
With that said, let's hope for an even greater 10 years, so that we can look back with the hashtag #2016vs2026 and feel even better about how much we continue to grow!
