More from Raye Matthews
This is my biggest sadface moment here because I just drew my husband's Transformer's Fan character that he had created a couple years ago. If you know 
lotharhex you know he has shit artistic ability, and now you know I have shit mecha drawing ability but I did the best i could, as I wept that it just hit me that I married a fucking geek.
Oh god. It hurts.
The geekiness. And what's worse I'm enabling this because I drew this shit.
Not bad for my first try at drawing mecha, and like most first time moments, this hurt, and holy shit it took ages but we finally figured out how to work that piece of shit scanner. We're special.
This is Flakstorm a Decepticon rendered in quasi-Transformers Animated Style. He transforms into an anti-aricraft artillery piece.
Enjoy this. I dunno if I did.

What he's implying is that this isn't shit, on the premise that at least half of the work on FA is at most as good as this, whereas if it were shit, a significantly smaller proportion of it would be as good as it.
Regardless, I quite like it.
And, to be fair, you married a man with a Sonic fancharacter; was there ever any real doubt that he wasn't a massive geek? :P

I figured I married a geek when I one day dressed up in a nice corset with thigh highs, nice high heels, done up right, and whispered his name and had him look at me, and he then took out his megatron toy he was playing with and he said, no this is not a joke, "Megatron approves of this." THIS... this is when I knew.
xD haha we are totally computer whizzes, game freaks, and DDR dancers. Our daughter is going to think of us strange xD haha and we can watch transformers all the time and be entertained...in fact he was saying it would be cool if his truck transformed and I told him the psp would be a better find to transform because then it would play with itself (Yeah totally wrong lol)and beat games for us!
my hubby's talked about wanting to get a car that's colored like a decepticon and with the symbol and EVUREETHANG XD That's what he wishes, whether or not he can afford something like that is different :p he tried to get me into transformers and i did watch a lot of it but omg i couldn't sit through most of it or read the comics because it's not my thing. ALTHOUGH I will admit that Transformers Animated was a different case, I actually did watch that because I wanted to all the way to the end :p but that's my extent of it, I don't really have any idea of the universe or anything.
I love my hubby but man XD sometimes his geekiness is just too much XD Oh, I don't think it's as horrible as I'm making it out to be but it was soooo infuriating that I couldn't get it right D:< and the more i worked on it, and the more I erased the more the eraser just didn't work and it just got stuck there permanently XD But man I just knock myself down saying it's shit because to me it kinda is, but I also think at the same time it's really not that tremendously horrible as I'm making it out to be since it IS my first try XD I'm just hard on myself, really :p
Aww :c *pet pet* You know the saying that we are our own worst critics. And it's so true. But I have friends who like to beat the crap out of me when I say such negative things about myself, and won't let me think it for long. Oooh I have a bat, I can beat you into believing in yourself :D
*purrs somehow with the petting, not knowing he could* My friends and my gf do the same thing, they won't let me say its bad for long. Though even I admit I have little to no drawing skills but I can write and that's a bonus I guess, no matter what the subject is or may be. I just defeat myself too fast on trying to draw. And as for that bat, is it a sponge one or wooden one? You might damage the bat more then my head if you beat me with it lol
Hehe, I think it also does depend on my mood after said drawing is done, to be honest I wasn't really all that wanting to post it but my husband really wanted me to and eventually i caved, XD
I wasn't happy with it 100% so I really did try to defeat myself on it, and make it worse than it seems. I still have to fix some errors, ink it and color it bcause my husband reaaaaallyy wanted this. So I can't let myself feel too bad about it for long but at the same time >.> I still do because I am terrible that way. But I also set myself up to feel this way because this is something I really wanted to be perfect knowing full well I never drawn mecha before.... sooooo that's really my bad there XD I should know better than to expect perfection on my first try >:P
Also the bat says 'NERF' does that mean it will break on your head? D:

If it makes Lothar happy then its a great pic and you should feel happier he likes it so much, he made you take the right direction and post it onto here so we, your friends, can help you realize it isn't so bad at all
You should take a step back and look at it and yourself, think about what you've done so far, how Lothar feels, how you feel about it yourself, and is it really as bad as you think it is? I would believe you'll see in the end it really isn't, you just want it to be perfect so badly you can't see past the fact its already getting to that point and your husband is saying so
As for that bat, I might be far too thick-skulled for it, though it seems to be a NERF bat? That thing might just cripple me, heck, three year old little girls can beat the snot out of me, that bat couldn't do much worse surely?

*hugs in return and smiles* Just don't allow yourself to be defeated like I tend to with myself, you have never done a bad pic yet from all the ones I can see and I highly doubt you ever will
mmmmm, if I like the smell too much I might be too attracted to the bat to escape it hitting me lol And oh god, the strength of a 4 year old? I'm so screwed! *runs for it*

I think my problem is that i came in with really high expectations whne I should have reminded myself that this is my first time drawing outside not only my own comfort zone but also drawing something I've never drawn before. Never even drew a car and then I have this mecha here in the flesh that I expected too much from myself XD; But after some time thinking about it, I suppose I can say that while not perfect, I am proud ;)
