Okay I finally came up with the best idea. Nothing rehashed from my old drawings. Yes, it's a reboot of an old game. But it's in my style. Zombies Ate My Neighbors is an old old old video game that I loved. I used to play it with my little brother back in the day. I'll post my sketches as I come along. I will not rush it. I'm a little out of practice and do NOT want the final image to suffer from it. In the mean time I suggest playing the game. It's fun and campy.

While searching my computer I found some sketches that I did that I never finished. So I think I can wet my feet into coming back into the art scene by finishing those pieces. :) I really want 2019 to be the year that I get back to what I love to do. Ever since I had kids I have had less time to do it. When I got a full time job eventually I had even less time to do it and my mental health basically killed my motivation so I stopped drawing. This is a time of healing. I need to bring my old self back. I need that thirst for creativity and the ambition to see it through again. My only fear is that one of the pieces I really want to complete might cause some backlash because fandoms suck swampy balls.

It's been a while since I've drawn anything and I'm kind of hitting a road block on what to start with. Obviously I'd like to do something horror related, but maybe I should get my feet wet first with something simple. Any ideas?

I haven't been on here in a while. I thought I'd come back and upload my recent work since it's changed over the past few years.

This is what's been helping me try to improve my art a bit on my tablet. I've come a long way because of doing a draw blog.

I, along with other etsy artists, have artwork that once sold will be donated to Japan's relief funds. I've sold one thing so far and have given the profits to World Vision. If interested in knowing more about helping through art whether it is buying or donating, then go to this forum.

There is also info on where you can find good legit charities to donate on your own!

Since I don't have a tablet I would be doing it entirely by hand and scanning each frame in. It's a short and sweet animation I'm planning but I'd like to hear some advice on how to make this less painstaking and smoother. I'm also struggling with whether I should use a background or not since this will be my first animation.
