This one is the oldest picture I could find. I hate it, hate hate hate it!



It was drawn sometime probably 1999!! I remember that I was reading a book about drawing female manga characters and trying to learn from it. This is the first pic I ever colored on my PC too.

I haven't done a FULL updated version of it, but I've just been re-doodling the outline here now whilst waiting to go home from work.



I seem to have more waist evilness in the first pic. Why, oh WHY did I seem to think that women's waists came in like the middle of hourglasses!?!

WHY DID I THINK THAT LENSFLARE AND CLOUDS WERE A GOOD BACKGROUND!!!

AIIIEEEE! DIE DIE DIE

Hmm. You were a beginner back then, right? Because you can improve that pic a lot.

The head on the colored pic is too flat and too wide. The eyes are the same. The throat is a bit tool long. That

You know I don't have that great a layout myself but I know it's not bad.

Compare the stuff I do now to what I did three years ago. Ai yi yi...no me gusta.

So yea...I can definitely see the difference and improvement. But isn't better that you're actually -looking- over some of your old stuff to get a better idea of how you've improved? I do that sometimes with some of the stuff I do, be it whatever.

*Kawahless the Forgettable looks at the sketch and makes a gesture that could mean "top notch", but is too damn obscure to be certain of.

Riiiight...

Actually, now that I think about it, it reminds me of Minako in too many ways.

Yeah, it's Sailor V(enus)... although I didn't do it on purpose, really ;

Just I had few anime influences back then. Sailor Moon, um, Evangelion and Sailor Moon.

I better show that to my sister, as the big Sailor moon fan she is.

And yeah, I really can't see that you did draw that picture. Ever, you have gone a long way through.

Heh, and don't worry. Most newbies with Photoshop usually play around with the lens flare filter. Ok I didn't, but that's becuse everyone kept telling me how much it sucked.

Apart from the obvious need of colours, I really have nothing to complain about the newer picture. So yeah, it's yet another masterpiece.

Lens flare only sucks because it is too frequently misused and when misused... it looks cheap and tacky. Like the original picture there.

It's become a great Photoshop cliche... good ole lens flare.

I still love lens flare, I just very very seldom use it.

Um... Er... *ahem*

Yeah, the old version is... not all that great. But, the new, incomplete version is typical Taryn goodness.

Her powers are love-based for a reason

Besides, she's the ORIGINAL Pretty Soldier, codename Sailor V. Sailor Moon came later.
