   Reinvention?
So. The story goes like this.
I was drawing. And I realized a terrible thing: I felt cocky.

Like, I was all "Yeah. I can draw manga. Yeah. I'm cool."

Then I realized that I've still got a loooooong way to go. For one, I can only draw one person in a picture. Add two and I get confusifyed. For another, I can only draw simple poses. So I whipped out my handy-dandy how-to-draw manga (overdue) library book.

And started at the beginning.

Step One. Start out by copying the drawings of your favorite artists.

"Huh. My favourite artists..." Well I just started reading Host Club, but... I LOVE the style!

So... I'm thinking that over the summer I'll start at the beginning of the how-to-draw book (Shojo Beat's Manga Artist Academy) and work my way to the end. Sort of like a reinvention. I hope to get a bunch better. And get a Host Club-like style. Because I really like that.

But I'll have to renew the book... or buy my own copy.... hmmm...
