Remember When?



Drawing is just like any other activity. If you don’t do it regularly, you can get forget how to draw things easily.

Heh, I know how that goes...though it doesn't help that my characters have gone through at least 4 redesigns...

I found Danny and Spot cartoons on some site called Smackjeeves and read through them, there weren't many. Was that all that was done?

@killer2009 I hear that!

@ryryamin yes, but even if you created the character, if you don't draw them for a very long time, there's a chance you may very well forget what they look like.

Always have a folder with ref sheet's of your characters on hand at every comic con. ;) it'll help heaps.

Who are Danny and Spot? Are they old characters from this strip?



5:31pm Sat 18th Feb #8186416

I know. It surprised me when they showed up as your Christmas image seeing as how long it has been since you drew them.

I'm almost embarrassed to ask who the little kid is talking about...Please be gentle, I'm only 18 ^^0

Even as a writer I forgot character personalities relation ships and ect.

This = why I always keep refs of my characters.
Seriously. This has happened to me WAY too many times not to.

Always keep a laptop next to you ;)

Heh, when I and a friend of mine were going to revamp one of our characters, I spent hours just doodling my ideas in dilapidated old sketchbooks, and now I can't make head nor tail of them. I, for one, am still enthralled in that kid's secondary ears.

that what's Google for.



3:35am Sat 18th Feb #8186400

I know the feeling.

That's why you keep a reference folder handy at all times. Even if they're your own characters. And when you character count exceeds 10, each with their own vastly unique body, face, hair, and clothing type, it's not just a good idea. It's a requirement!

Well, yeah, it happens to most of us.
