Your First piece Vs Your Last one!

New Topic Respond to this Topic

Well, I think the title is very self explanatory. Let's show positivity and see how we have improved in our art! Time to show your first piece you ever uploaded here on Newgrounds vs. The most recent one, or if you are new here, maybe show your first digital/traditional piece, or perhaps that first piece you drew when you started taking art seriously.


Don't be shy, I know we are all very critical of our own stuff, god knows I used to shred paper sheets when I felt the piece looked horribly, but this time we'll all share shameful amateur stuff! Feel free to comment on other people's improvements as well if you feel like it!


Also, as a heads up. Let's try to keep it SFW, okay? E-T Rated art!


I'll start.


Here's my first piece I uploaded on Newgrounds on 2018:

And this one is the last one I posted!

Speaking of this account, I had done pixel art in my alt account before I made this account, and I didn't like the pixel art, because I don't give too much effort into it.


Probably my real first art, I do keep practicing on art though.

Don't think much has changed in year here on NG. Most of my last years posts are mix and match from works of several years though.

there's been a few of these threads throughout the years, and I've been drawing since I was 9, maybe 10. which tbh is kinda lame for me to keep posting over and over, so I'm gonna post my first and last image of my current character. I drew her for the first time in 2019

After actually checking, I'm scared I haven't improved as much as I should have

Even if the style is similar though, I think my shading's improved and is now more logical

I'm also better at picking colors
