Alternatively titled "how the fuck did I forget about that one"So my first art post was full of redrawn pictures, right? Well. I somehow forgot to include the one I'm most proud of. Part of the reason, perhaps, is I've lost the original piece, and my comparison picture only shows a small snippet of it, so it's difficult to see the improvement too much. I reworked not only the art itself, but the composition and pose and everything.
Both pieces are fanart of a fantastic comic on DeviantArt that inspired me artistically for a long time, particularly because you can see the artist evolve throughout it. It's called The Locked Maze, and it's by mleiv, if I recall correctly. My art depicts the main character, Holly. The series is split into three books that you can purchase. I still remember checking for updates on a daily basis, and though I redrew the piece years later, the comic was still ongoing! It's easy to understand how when you see the quality of it and understand it's only one person making it in their spare time.
Later Edit: I found the full size of the old picture!
