My entry for Draw it Again Challenge! #1 by @jillustrations.

It's Wednesday again. For this weeks Art Wednesday I upload my contest entry. As always I forgot to record my single steps >_<. When I start I forget everything else around me. Overall it took round about 6 hours to do the sketch and color it.

First the sketch. On the left side is the oldest digital picture I had. As I remember this was my first scanned picture and also my second digital colored picture. For my redrawed sketch I tried to find a similar pose but more dynamic than the picture of 2001. The armor is the armor the character wore ingame (Ultima Online)

I thougth I would not have enough time to color it but I wanted to try. That's why the color of the new sketch looks a bit plain. I could add more details and be more picky but that would need more time. And I could color forever. The BG is also very rough but this was only nice to have. My focus was the character.

Amazing! you are definitely leveling up!! I love looking back at old artwork and seeing how far you've come. I need to do this for my own work haha! :D Have a wonderful day! I cant wait to see more work from you.

Hey, thanks for your nice comment. It was my first time to redraw an old piece of my art but I can recommend this. It was very interesting to see the old and new picture side by side. Iit is very motivating to go on and exercise

definitely! It is such a great idea. I'm going to have to try it out myself!

Ohhhh very cool! thank you for participating!!! <3
isn't it crazy to see the skill increase over the years? :D very nice!

Hey, thanks for the contest ;) and the nice comment. Yes, it was very revealing to do this. I wanted to do something like this for quite a while, but your contest gave me the motivation to start
