Anyway on a lighter note, it never ceases to fascinate me when I show my art friends my latest character designs & they praise my apparent fashion sense. I look at other artists with much more diverse designs & I feel like a hack.

So being praised for it, I have to resist the urge to put myself down like I used to do with my art in general. Y'know the whole "I know it's pretty shitty but I tried I guess" thing that you see most new artists spouting. I've been drawing for too long do still do that. I'm too old for that shit lol

I like my character designs, I think I'm decent at it, it just feels weird when other people seem impressed by the designs. I think pretty lowly of my tastes, so while it's good enough for me (after all, I draw for myself, I draw just to make myself happy, because it feels good to do), it's fascinating to think that it could be good enough for other people.

I obviously still have a long ways to go on working on my self confidence & self worth lol
