Hahahaha, this is great! Somehow I imagined the drawing would be a Pokemon or a girl, I didn't expect this n.n

@Rayfield Lumina
For the Christmas posts (Mostly for her clothes) I would have loved to make her room a mess of gift wrapping materials but I need to sleep xD

I gotta say... this is one of the cutest pics I've seen in a while. I want to  carefully carry Patsy to her bed, cover her with a fluffy blanket and pat her head. What a sweet pic, really, instant fav.

Here's a drawing I made for a card art I just posted:

Ohhh, I'm seeing a new original character here, that's always a welcome sight.I love all the nice details: the cute gloves, the xmas balls/spheres (now that I think about it, I don't know how they're called in english), the coloured lights, the dress that resembles the actual tree, the thin scarf with tiny white trees on it, and the funny star that seems to be capable of creating fireworks by itself xD. She's quite pretty, with a more mature feeling than other characters n.n

Thanks xP I wouldn't say she's a new character, as she is card art rather than part of my projects' cast.
I intended to make her an embodiment of a Christmas Tree n.n

There was a different drawing I was working on for the occasion, but I felt it would've taken longer. So midway through, I decided to start a new drawing altogether. That new drawing being this:

It's already 3 to 4 days past Christmas but still have this:

I see Danika, I approve! I see Danika in Santa Suit, I melt!! I wonder who she's taking that bad to, but I behaved well this year, so I hope it's me

Btw, you should have tagged me, it's ok it's past Xmas, you got your 100 points and 6 additional moves at Phase 3!

To complement what I told you earlier... where is she? The world of the dead, I imagine, another plane of existence. The silvery things around her are spirits, maybe? And those drop seem like rain, but they're too few and big to be simple rindrops, so maybe it's something else? I'm curious.

Cool picture but that scythe is a bit scary

I'd like to say it's just snow... but truth be told I improvised the background without thinking a ton about it xD
The green marker started drying up so it made for a cool mist effect by pure accident xP

Me: Oh, cool, look at that amazing background, it's no doubt a superb, abstract...

Sleepy: It was an accident, I ran out of green, lulz

Sleepy, it's time you start training on your drawing technique. It's been years but it seems like you haven't improved a bit. If you want to improve you gotta work on it. If you don't want to improve then nvm this post. No hate btw, I say that for your own good. Hope everyone is doing well here btw

Sleepy is a humble person, and I'm pretty sure she'll come and say you're right, that during the vacations that just ended she barely returned to the level she had before. Having said that, the post I'm quoting is utter bullsh*t. You come out of nowhere, criticizing Sleepy's art like you were some kind of f*cking master artist, without even giving pointers on how to improve or reasons of why your statement is the truth, just a biased judgement of, "Eh, you haven't improved sh*t, better start working on it, don't mind me if you want to stay as trash forever, also, hope everyone's ok". What the hell is that? At the very least post a drawing, since this is a club for that, not a place to insult people with the pretext that it's for the person's good.

Don't get me wrong.

Sleepy is a wonderful person from what I know (which is not much).

I'm not a master artist whatsoever. Since you're curious I must have posted some shit here while ago if you look closely, but since the host I used closed, I'm not sure it's still visible.  

I think everyone into drawing more or less know how to improve : learn what to use and how, draw often (everyday), copy art you like, learn anatomy, lighting, composition, draw nature, draw objects... 

However this can seem pretty annoying, and you need motivation. By saying the hard truth, I just want Sleepy to go for it. If you see the 1st page, you will see a superb elephant sketch. It shows so much potential that it would be sad not to try to improve. 

I realize my words were harsh, that is why I am clarifying what I intended/meant here.

Of course, there are people who just like to draw and who don't feel the need to improve, and it's perfectly fine. That is why I added the 'nvm' part. 

Finally, this time I post my awesome art :

Yes, she is (though a little moody xD)

Since you're curious

I'm not curious. The whole point of why I was so belligerent towards you was because the way you posted was completely out of place. Sure, people have a general idea of how to improve, but you came here with an arbitrary opinion that didn't specify anything, rather than comparing her previous drawings to the current ones and mentioning why she supposedly has not improved, so she can work in such specifics... that'd be helpful. And then we have the "nvm" section. You shouldn't come and say "Listen to me and Improve; don't, and stay screwed". That's arrogant. If you want to support her, not this nor hypocrisy of saying "you're doing perfect" will do, or course. You mention in your reply that such part was intended in case of her aspirations are casual, but as it stands, you're saying "get to work or stay in mediocrity" See now what I'm talking about? It's not about if you were right or wrong, which is a matter of individual perspective, but the fact that the exact choosing of your words and methods weren't helpful or encouraging, they were closer to an insult, so I hope you're more careful in the future.

And here's an arbitrary comment of my own: I like Sleepy's art very much, but she can work in improving steady linework and avoiding going beyond the line during colouring.

[Sleepy 1,982]

Have been trying to post something here for a few days now but either the spoiler format is obsolete and giving me an error, or I overloaded my post, Though I feel like I can't just lurk when the stuff being talked about is, well, me....

Testing spoilers now. If this works expect some good old fashioned double/triple/+ posting from me xD

EDIT: So result is, seems to work but it randomly adds/removes brakets of my written code as it pleases, and once the spoiler is made at the end of my comment, I can't seem to write anything under it...

Well, it's been like a week since the last post. So here's something I worked on after my Christmas nun:
