Thanks so much for all your kind words, bamboozled!

I've been paid a couple times for my artworkses. Mostly from people that know me, though, so it's not as special.

I don't always get the image I want.. I just tend to not show it when I feel it's wrong. A lot of the pinup cards aren't what I had originally imagined them to be - but since they're sketches I posted them anyhow, with the intention of fixing them in the future.

Still, years of drawing day in and day out - and not drawing the same thing over and over - will certainly help improve one's ability to translate their imaginings into a piece of art. I'm not that good at it yet, I don't think. More practise could get me lots further. Big Smile

You're welcome Robin Smile Most of our artwork we do, tend to just change right from under our noses, because our minds are jsut teaming with little ideas that beg to be drawn. So though we plan for them to be done a certain way, they usually turn out unexpectedly different. But more often than not, they still have the same basic idea to them that you had foreseen in your minds eye ^^. I like that though, because it lets me know my creative side is awake, and is calling out to me to do something with it hehe. And practicing at whatever talent one has, will most often wield greater success at what they do. "Practice makes perfect" And everyone knows full well it's true. So keep on practicing at what you do, and you get the results you want Smile

    *grin* Usually when I start a detailed piece like this, though, I do a bunch of sketches first to see if I can get one I like best - something that fits my artistic needs and still portrays the idea I want. In this case, I'm short on time, so Ihave to just wing it - but I think it will be ok.
