The middle image is of course the sketchbook in all its ripped and worn out glory. To me, each bend and crease is a sign of character and aged wisdom. Many nights were spent sprawled across my bed and drawing before I eventually fell asleep. Anyway, let's move on.
In the upper left-hand corner you'll see the first page of the sketchbook. The text reads "Merry Christmas" and "2007." A trend you'll notice is that I liked to draw my characters tall and stick thin with mittens for hands. The stick people anatomy didn't go on for long, but the mitten hands certainly did.
The upper middle picture is my take of a pointy dragon. I was quite proud of it at the time since I didn't use any references. I was excited to show my best friend, in which he responded by pointing out that it was too pointy. Everybody's a critic.
In the upper-right corner and lower-left corner the images are actually related. The bottom picture is supposed to be a character spread sheet for a comic I was developing named "Another Day, Another Problem." It based on an MMORPG I was playing at the time.
The middle column sans the sketchbook, each include pictures where I revisited and drew and "updated" version right next to the older one. The text " '12 " is scrawled to the side to show that I had drawn the newer version in 2012. I won't mention that in one of them I was actually making my own Sailor Moon character.
Lastly, in the bottom right-hand corner, is supposed to be a realistic portrait of Joe Jonas from the band The Jonas Brothers. I was also proud of this one at the time. Surprisingly, it wasn't the only attempt at a realistic portrait. I also drew my sister.
Well, I hope you enjoyed taking a look into my
