Draw this Again!

Original piece from 2004

New Piece

[link]

The "before" was one of my very first deviations on dA from back in 2004, pretty ~~embarrassing~~ crazy.

Safe to say a lot of improvement, no? 8D _{(well it IS an 8 year difference).}
The piece from 2004 was drawn on with a mouse on probably windows 98plus (maybe 2000??), a CRT monitor at 800x600 or so resolution and drawn on opencanvas and paintshop pro..my, how times have changed.

I have learned a lot since then

! *pats 2004-me on the back*

I titled the new piece 'Metamorphosis' because it's a transformation into something that is more matured, different, and refreshed (a breath of new life!), while still having the same essence/soul as the original. The title reflects the piece itself and also my own development in skills and complexity.
_{Or maybe she's just possessed by the rabbit now, haha}

Here's to more progress and improvement!

shs getting more obsessive about that bunny.

Hahaha! She kind of is. Sometimes I like to think maybe she's some sort of witch and the rabbit is her animal familiar.

wow what a difference haha..the new version looks great! It looks like it could be printed for story book art

You've really come a long way..Looking through your gallery, I can see that you're very versatile. Something that I am indeed envious of! I'm kind of stuck in the anime trap T__T Now that I've switched my major to art, I have been forced to draw a lot of non-anime stuff. I need to get out of the trap o_o So far, I haven't liked any of my new works enough to post...I'm still working on it lol

*amy-liu Feb 8, 2013

Awwww, thanks bb

Nuuu, get out of the anime clutch! You've already mastered that technique, time to master others! It is a very dangerous trap, and a hard one to get out of! Just keep going and try new stuff and get out of your comfort zone. You've got the talent and drive, so I know you can do it and it will be wonderful! I'm so excited to get to see new stuff from you, when you're ready to post!

yeah, I know I know >.< it is very dangerous indeed...I'm stuck pretty deep in the trap, but i'm trying to get out of it. My past few projects have been anime-free. Unfortunately the style always begins to manifest itself when I'm trying to draw other things..such as realism lol T_T I just need to keep practicing. But yes, I hope to post some of my new work when I have more time
