My first attempt at... Art. Options

[ShogunSniper]

Heya. This my first serious attempt at any artistic drawing. Yeah, I draw some tribal designs on the back of my notebooks and creative ways stick people can kill eachother on my homework, but in 15 years have I yet to create a serious piece of artwork before today. I kinda documented the genesis of my brainchild and am fairly happy with the result.

First attempt: Here (It's small)
Yeah, disproportionate torso, small head, shoulder strap doesn't even hit the shoulder, but I was content with this as a first try. This was meant to be my RP character, but ended up not turning out like him. So I started calling him Rick

Second: Here Same pic, just *attempted* to enlarge the head slightly but ultimately ended up messing up an already akward face.

Then I started over again using those as a basis, but upped the scale significantly.

First Genesis I made a basis to help me sketch. A skeleton sort of.

Second Genesis I'm quite happy with myself at this point. Go out and buy new pencils and a sharpener after this.

Third Genesis A face appears! Plans are made to move the waist from the last stage up to avoid the whole three foot tall chest thing. Also plan to change position of the sword.

Final Genesis Finished for now. At this point I decide it looks more like my character Sadril than a "Rick". I erased a lot so its blotchy sure, but its good for a first drawing, right?

Sorry if I bored you, but I was excited.
