I didn't really know what to draw today, so I took for reference my own left hand, I tried to draw it while relaying mostly of real life, I thought not having a froze reference would be a good challenge. I now understand why artists keep saying hands are such complex to accurately recreate, it was fun.

I was really apprehending today's drawing, I had to take a breath outside before being able to try my hand at it. I really wanted to try and reproduce that drawing (made by fourleafisland), but I was scared that my current skills would'nt be enough for me to achieve something I would be proud of. I don't regret doing it anyway in the end, 'cause I'm really happy with the result. Today was much better than yesterday.
_{I hope i'ts fine posting my reproduction of someone else's drawing if I clearly state it is? Do I need to ask the original author first? TBH I admire them a lot so I don't know how to approach them.}

I spent a lot of time trying to draw Lu from "Lu over the wall" but I couldn't get anything to work, I saw a few youtube videos talking about the how to get good at drawing and needing to learn the fundamentals, I'm left with a scorching sensation of hopelessness and frustration in my chest. It's painfull.
I couldn't draw Lu today, I'm missing too much stuffs to get it to work I think. Still, in retrospect I should've kept the failed attempts.
Instead I drew... "cats??" to try and calm down. I hate how this look the most low effort drawing I've made out of all of them, when it was the most difficult to get done.
I feel way too distressed right now. I think I need to start from the beginning and learn the basics of art, though I don't know what they are. This is a problem for tomorow.

I wanted to draw anthro-wolf link today (original design by Marc Knelsen, here's what I believed to be his first iteration).
I'm not satisfied with the result, I kept trying to correct it and the less I felt like it was working. I somehow spent around an hour and a half on this.
This might have been a bit too much to try my hand at, taking into account I have zero training nor knowledges of human's nor wolfe's anatomy, even less anthro's...
I guess there's a start to everything, I definitely want to get better, I want to be able to do my boy justice someday. I'm not done with him yet.
