Scatterbrained and friendly optimist. Always happy to give my (unasked for) opinion :)
Pardon my rambling and broken English, I know I often sound like an alien trying to impersonate a human being.

It’s a fun book for beginners that mostly focuses on drawing characters.
It is an old book though, so it might contain some unpleasant caricatures further in.
The cheese must flow :)

I got an ugly scar on my pinky from a bullying incident at school when I was 12. It’s not like this was their intention, but it got out of hand and a door slammed hard on my finger.
I had to get rushed to the hospital, got stitches and a massive bandage for half a year.
The bullies never apologized and it got brushed off as an accident.It’s a reminder of bad times during my teenage years and I still get sad when I look at it.

I think I kind of misinterpreted the theme and focused on my personal process. But now that I’ve put so much effort into this, I don’t want to keep it to myself.
So feel free to disqualify me if it doesn’t fit the theme :)
No prompt this time. I spend a long time trying to get the consistency right with a lot of tweaks here and there.
And yes, I used another program to stitch them together.
Don’t worry about overwhelming the community, we’re not even whelming right now :)
As far as putting some meaning behind the picture. It really depends on what kind of story or emotion you would like to portray. I usually start from what I want to show and work from there. Then usually I get distracted, end up with something that just makes me giggle and post that instead :)
Most important, just post what you like and what touches you.
