Mkay, well I have been practicing at shading and the balto style for awhile. (hey that ryhmes! xD) And I figured, since I can't master the balto style yet, why don't I try something alittle newer. So I figured, combinding my style and what I have practiced of the balto style would bring me closer to balto style. (xD, connfusing I know.) So I tryed a few pictures. (o.0 I have know Idea why they are Alue. I just felt like drawing her.) So tell me what you think of the before and after pictures. Shaiding critiques also are accepted, just don't be too harsh. I am not the best drawer in the world. xD

wow! you certainly did improve by a ton! your 'after' pictures are much more sharper and clearer, and that's always a plus. you're doing a great job! keep on working harder and you'll get there someday. : )

i can't give you much shading critiques, though -- i can't shade much myself, heh.

Hehe thanks so much! Ya, I knew my older balto style pictures looked like well... y'know. and at first I was afraid to put them up there because I thought people might laugh xD But now I'm okay with it. THanks for the advice! ;D

You HAVE improved. A lot. But your art is still a little shaky. But it did improve. ;] Keep working on it, and you'll get better! ^^

the after pics look a whole ton better!
keep going!

Good improvment! I like the colors you used.

Well done with those pal, the "after" pics look much better, living proof that practice does indeed work for those who don't believe, keep on practicing buddy!!

Thanks so much everybody! Im glad you aproave. And yes UK, you made a good piont bud, you just have to keep practicing to get better. ;] xD As you can see, I need alot more practice! lol, but I'm working on it xD
