‘Got too frustrated with drawing yesterday. Y’know that feeling when you are certain what it’s supposed to be like but you can’t seem to do it right no matter what you do?

That was like it for me. ORZ

I seriously wanted to pull all my hairs out from the absolute frustration that I was having.

Gods, why do I even draw when being an artist means signing up for a lifetime of disappointment and discouragement? >__>

Ah well.

Anyway., here’s a sketch comparison from a year ago with the way I drew Mariku.

It’s a bit messy haha. But I actually drew the feb 2023 one on the same page. It was an A4 Midori sketchbook so I thought of using the extra space for the updated version.

I can still see some mistakes on the 2023 one, sighhhh but I’ll just improve as I go along.

Well, gtg. I still have to grind for other stuff for today, ugh,
