Pictures of mine from the time before I started this irregular blog.
Storytime for those who missed the beginning of the movie: I first used art software around May 2013, this being Microsoft Paint. Paint being paint. most of the results were somewhat primitive, to be kind to my own feelings, and as a result, while they were fine at the time of creation, once I caved and started using Adobe stuff they gathered digital dust in an unloved folder stored like some kind of Matryoshka doll.
Another reason why these pictures have never been posted on here before (well, some may have, but if they have, they're different from these versions) lies in the fact that these feel like an earlier stage of drawing, an art school portfolio of failed experiments and just plain terrible pictures, due to the fact I did no drawing during 2019.
Getting to the point, sort of, these then, are pictures originally from the years 2013-2018, worked on with MS Paint, I am restoring with Photoshop in order for them to feel more of a type with the other work I have on here.
I'm not changing anything in an extreme way, if anything I am just straightening the lines of some, due to Paint giving you that Lego staircase pixel look, or updating the look of some (mostly by using watercolor pencils to blur and blend slightly) in order to make them look and feel as I intended, which of course, I didn't achieve due to Paint being terrible.
This is the first collection, obviously, that contains most of my portrait, movie, and art things from the period. Scrapbook #2 will be the comic stuff, with Scrapbook #3 being pencil sketches and various other random drawings.
Anyway, monologue over, the pictures await, and I shall add details on each when I get around to it...
