stupid_smelly_greedy_cat_people: Gotta say, he doesn't do a bad job drawing humans.

Nefel: "Draw her being hit on by Captain Kirk."

Higuera: captain kirks done every babe from every species possible!

Rick2tails: like he would ever turn down the chance to hit on a girl

Toryu-Mau: ... And we thought captain Shepard got around... . >):^/

scoopski: @Toryu-Mau: *Commander

Bill: Quickish sketch I made with inspiration from Terraner's image https://www.prequeladventure.com/fanartbooru/post/view/5636#search=Katia%27s_wizard_robe

Bill: One last thing before I color it. Should I use sharpies, colored pencils, colored pencils with some pastels painted over, pastels, or acrylic paint. I am very inexperienced with the proper use of each method.

AMKitsune: @Bill: If you're unsure which will work best for you, why not try them all? Try drawing some random shapes on another piece of paper and filling them in with the different mediums. That way you can go into the colouring stage knowing which method you prefer/works best for you.

DOOMGUY11: Bill got better skill than me! Nice! Keep going bro!

DOOMGUY11: I'm just trash XD

Bill: @Doomguy just practice to an extent of at least 1 sketch a day until you feel confident in a way of drawing from a certain angle. Then try the other angle until you feel confident in that too. Then do other features like detailed clothing and color. Lastly probably work on shading and background work.

lapma: Khajiit of Rawl'kha honor their trickster god Rajhin with the Trial of Five-Clawed Guile.
Celebrate the New Life and pay your respects to Rahjin, all at once.
Rajhin once said, 'A rock is a pebble to be tossed from one's boot.' Use your lockpicks to retrieve the contents of the nearby chests. Show you have as little regard for barriers as the mighty Rajhin. And be quick about it!

Bill: Katia remembered all the times that lockpick let her down in the third image

Nicros_Man: CAAAAAAAAAAAKE!

Rick2tails: chocolate Christmas cake for a pretty kitty!

DOOMGUY11: Eat that mothafucking cake girl! B)

Zargothrax: Is that the One Ring? Damn, Katia knows how to be invisible.

APayne1776: Melting my heart

Bill: Good meme. Accurate of every cat ever.

Floopenson: I miss these

Bill: @Floopenson Agreed these are so creative(ish) and fun to look at especially in large amounts somewhat like alcoholism.

DOOMGUY11: Katia always missing things up XD

Zargothrax: The legend has returned
Our cats behave very well in the presence of the christmas tree, I hope that doesn't change this year.

SlashSeven: "nyah I'm a smart assed kitty, just look how easy I can lockpick it up!"
Nice tail, yo

DOOMGUY11: Katia dosent even know how to lock pick
XD

Bill: Worked on this and I think it came out well.

SlashSeven: Forehead curve is a bit strange, but hey, that khajiti girl. She's pretty :3

SlashSeven: Body parts are non proportional btw. But you can get over it
everybody can.

Bill: Submitted wrong lol

Bill: BTW I already realized the left eye is off and tried my best with my current editing software but I submitted wrong version

DOOMGUY11: Dont worry bill you're barely starting but I have a really good feeling about you future artwork so dont stop!

Bill: Thank you! The compliments are greatly appreciated. I have looked and some of your art and it's really good.

lapma: Ok, so TwistNtwirl's work inspired me to try do something more realistic, i realy liked look of faces he made for khajiit's so i made something similar. I present to you thieves guild Katia.

Vinarto: I like the blue on the armor.

SlashSeven: You did it well. But tail and head have a different fluffyness. just why

Rick2tails: she looks good in that outfit! :)

XenoYparxi: ok, I think this is going nowhere... I understand that you're learning and "tracing" the things you like, but you're not going to learn without figuring stuff out and practising it on your own. maybe you should start doing something yours that you yourself own and taking drawing/stylistic cues from other pieces along the way? not just "traced" images with a few corrections

Nicros_Man: Nice outfit! Reminds me of Dark Souls. Or is it Dark Souls?

Zargothrax: @XenoYparxi: I’d say „"tracing" the things you like” is the way we develop our own style. Well, as long as we don’t actually trace, of course, just taking more inspiration from others than what then could be regarded later as „original”. I’d call it „mimicking”. Art styles rarely pop out of one’s head, it’s usually just a mixture of styles we liked and copied.

By the way, I think this comment would’ve been more impactful If you had written it under >>5782. Here, only the head is is mimicked. I wouldn't call it a "traced image".

I think the worst lapma could be accused of here is „art style theft”. And if someone starts stealing your style, in my opinion that’s the biggest compliment you could recieve as an artist (save for extreme cases where you make a living from your art and someone’s trying to steal your wind). Because it means that you inspired others. It’s the equivalent of others looking up to you and saying: „I want to be like you”.

Zargothrax: There is wisdom in what XenoYparxi said though. There are ways you can impove faster. In my opinion, that is by learning and doing technical stuff. If you wan’t to go down that route I’d recommend reading the comments under >>5710.

DOOMGUY11: Wtf now I'm just gonna applaud you because she is cute in this outfit

Nicros_Man: Nice move!

Rick2tails: got to practice those skills?

Rick2tails: or is that the imp battle? either way not a bad picture

DOOMGUY11: How it feels to chew five gum...
Stimulate your senses.
