Great improvement. Side by side it really shows.

thanks ^^

both very pretty..but so much improvement too..
always love your art..

thank you Kitty ^^ I love to draw... wish I had more time to do full detail pictures like the firefly one to test my limits

welcomes..
hope you have more free time eventually..

I approooove!

And yes, very positive changes toward the hair~

^^ thanks ^^ yeah... the hair is much better, so dull in the 2009 version, but just takes time and practice and patients huh but you know this ^^ your art has come really far as well xD <3

Oooh yeah... i need to do a comparison thing too soon~ Holy cow my stuff has gotten far in 2 years~

I say it a lot, but i'll say it again! I'm really proud of how far you've gotten, even in just the last 6-8 months since I started talking to you! Your style has changed a bit, and you're starting to define things more, your coloring has gotten a lot better and you've even taken my hints and tips and really made them your own~

You've even started to incorporate more detailed backgrounds!

Just keep challenging yourself hun! I know you'll keep growing :3

This proves my point from my last comment. ^^

thank you Sam ^^

You're welcome Kimmy. ^^

Holy moly! you're detailing is fangtastic <3

awww thank you so much hun ^^ I love adding the little details ^^ like the clouds alone are 4 layers xD and the glow... thats my favorite effect is doing the glow of the fireflies <3

It's so beautiful ^^

I love even the 2009 Mitsy ^^ so hot

tee hee ^^ thanks ^^ thats just cause she is all grown up in the 2009 version and being a tease ^^ the one I did yesterday is her as a child, definitely more innocent

granted, but I was also talking about the art style ^^

Wow your artistic style has improved greatly in such a short time. Still think I would rather be enjoying the show next to the older Mitsy, but that's no reflection on just how much you are continuing to become an even better artist.

^^ She would love it! and even offer you a beer ^^ Thats the only way to enjoy the fireworks here in OK

2 years only???
damn that would be my progress in 10 years :´3

thank you ^^ I really have focused alot on it.... and it gets really frustrating when I dont think that I am improving at all, so thats why alot of times I like to take a sec and actually compare my older work to my newer work so I can see where I am improving and where I need more improvement ^^;

it´s still damn impressive >w<

Your work has come a long way Kimmy. You've improved by a great deal in a very short time.

Now to work myself out of these ruts I keep running into. Expect a note from me soon about a project I'd like to take on.

thank you hun ^^ keep at it! Thats what I do... even if you are taking on a picture that seems hard... push yourself to do it and try it anyhow... its challenging yourself that will take you the furthest ^^

Good to see you evolving, hun... *hugs*

*hugs* thank you hun ^^

They both look very good

OMG wow you improved so much
