Art from Old to New (2006-2021, Doodles and Drawings) - Updated x4

Post by Rammstein »

I was chatting on the Discord the other day when I got the urge to draw again and in searching for some pencils I came across some random old artwork that I thought could be fun to share here! Most of what I've drawn is long gone but it was fun to find a small collection of some drawings.

The art goes from around 2006 to 2020, but since I never wrote down when they were made it's all a guesstimated timeline from oldest to newest.

Image
I remember that I drew this back in my first year of boarding school, so I know this one is made in 2006 which would make it the earliest of the bunch. I was kinda into futuristic, "fallout"-looking things for a little bit and wanted to try out some new sharpies I got in grey to black scale.

Image
I drew this one for the cape and the helmet - Futuristic wasteland wanderer.

Image
One of my first tries at drawing something realistic. I picked a young Wil Wheaton's character from Star Trek:TNG - Wesley Crusher. I never finished it because I started smudging it as I progressed and couldn't keep at it without ruining it :roll: I remember being proud of how the ear, the hair and the contrasted shading turned out!

Image
I've always struggled with periods of intense migraines in my life and this is a doodle I made during an attack that made me unable to sleep in which I tried to express some sort of artistic view on it. I only really liked how the sign with the skull, the eye and the "map" looking thing turned out underneath.

Image
No teenage years are complete without edgy drawings. Here's a flaming skull made with squiggly lines!

Image
Had to cute it up among the edgyness! I remember I drew the eyes of this one first and then filled in around it with whatever came to mind, and it turned out to be a Dratini-like dragon-snake.

Image
Made another try at a realistic graphite drawing, but yet again I had to give up because of smudge-issues. Despite obvious mistakes I remember being happy with the completed parts (eye socket and to the left of it).

Image
When you're not feeling like making any details but feel like drawing a colourful dude, you can just add whatever shapes you like and colour it in!

Image
The only Lock doodle I found, I remember doodling the lock and then tried making spitty around it, but failed rather miserably :lol: however this doodle (and others) changed the way I made locks in flash afterwards in how they were gradiented and "slanted" on the edges.

Image
I got really into the MMORPG Guild Wars 2 since I liked the first one a lot, so I drew one of my Asura characters (I made a lot of Asura characters). I still go back to this game from time to time since they are still releasing great content!

Image
Same Asura character but with a halloween themed helmet and a toxic themed pair of shoulderpads I have in game.

Image
I tried my hand at drawing a pretty serious looking dragon, but ended up becoming disinterested after shading in the yellow parts (I <3 yellow) and not getting the results I wanted on the horns.

Image
So instead I drew the same dragon in a cartoonier style with sharpies! I remember being happy with how it turned out despite the "bleeding" of the sharpies :D

Image
Now jump a couple of years to now where I got a motivation to draw some for fun again. I couldn't find very many pencils that had survived the years since I last was doodling, but I still tried my hand at drawing Picard from Star Trek:TNG and had a great time drawing it!

Image
For my second attempt I picked another of my favourite characters from the Star Trek genre, this time Dr. Julian Bashir from Star Trek:DS9. It was a ton of fun to colour and shade! I look forward to doodling and drawing more in the near future, but I before that I will get new pencils :D

Image
When it comes to digital art I don't have much saved, I've only managed to find two artworks on my current computer that I found on my email.
One is from when I tried out paint.NET for the first time and tried drawing a mountainous desert landscape for a d&d campaign, but I had to cut it down in size to only the mountains as the campaign came up and I never finished the sky nor the desert in front of it!

Image
This is a character known as Omsk and the only drawing I made in Flash that I managed to find. I drew it in 2014 when I reinstalled flash to draw this interesting looking character from the "poland-ball/country-ball" meme comics.
