wow, the truth has been preached!

loved this video, RR! :D [oh yea i am gona use this advive probally [xD] as i regain followers from old acc <:D Thankz!]

Nice animation! It's a valuable lession. (That I need to learn. XD I can only spend about an hour thirty on a painting.)

Man... I try and try to improve but it doesnt work. My art i deleted my pics bc i tried something new and well.... i started to get more likes and ehh. Sometimes i just get a silver star. I try to take time but it fails... idk... ive been here for almost 2 years now and idk wut 2 du....

LoooooL XDD In my case i should learn how to spend less time in my art because i´m tooooooo sloooow XXDDDDDD

I can see that looking through my gallery over the course of 8 months :D I've taken some big steps. I always like seeing when others make those steps as well.

Everything comes together nicely in due time, i've been trying different ways to draw people, not that i'm planning to ditch my current way, It's just good to practice different ways of drawing, which takes.. well.... time :)

That is so true because when i first joined colors, my paintings only took 30 or less minites...
Now mine only take 3 till 7 hours to do and thats when i improve alot! Thnks for the information! ;D

Wow this animation was so awesome! :)

your pic are aways positive i like that on you.Ok i hate take to much time on a drawing i have to force myself and yah maybe i will draw realistic paint who take 8:00 hour

The animation and the lesson is great! Thank you! :D

I usually spend several hours on my drawings. The hard part for me is finding the inspiration. But another thing that I like to do is wait a day at least before I post something so that I can look at it later with "fresh eyes" (sounds weird, but I don't know how else to put it) that way I know that Im satisfied with my work. :]

Great animation and message! I usually spend one or two (or more) hours on my art since it's usually more on the realistic side :)

Ah yes, we've all been there. Man, back then when first joined the colors! gallery, I posted my fisrt pic and I thought it looked good, until I saw all these other pics that looked better than mine. So then, I got very determined to try and improve my art. I just wanted to jump to being as good as everyone else so I could get noticed, but of course that didn't happen immediately. So whenever I drew a pic that I thought looked really good to me, I then see how much likes I get and felt like my art wasn't good enough. (Did I put some effort in some of them like 2 hours or so.) But I'm not like that anymore now. I'm always try and put a lot of effort in my paintings till I'm happy and ready to show the gallery what I've drawn. I love looking back at my old drawings it gives me so much nostagia. I love nostagia... -w-

Look At Me Now!
My Art Used To Stink....
:D

I get it lot

I've improved a *lot* ever since I joined, but the amount of time that it takes me to draw DECREASED :V

I need to practise more. I feel my art is the same. Plus I get lazy, and try to draw quick. But, I see you and others have improved so much. I really enjoy looking at the improvements.
This is great rogue! I'll try this and see if I can improve.
Thank you for making this.
^_^
BIG ANGELBEAR HUGS

btw, this is AMAZING!!

Yes time does improve a lot...ur shading has gotten a lot better nd still theres still time for us to improve...uve gotten quit good with the 3d...u do ad shading...but now lets work on ur Anatomy....the 3d looks cool dude but some time i think u relie to much on the 3d for a more realistic painting...try to shade more like wat u did here nd work on human anatomy...wat helps is look at the human body...all sorts of kinds of bodys...the human body isnt perfect nor semetricle so dont trip when u c a lil bit of an un even figure...just look at a body ....at differeent angles the body could look weird or look nice nd human...dont for get bout the face anatomy too:]
hair as well buddy:]
time should help u.

Its true that there is a lot of good art out there with massive time put into it, but there are also artists that are experienced or naturally talented & dont need alot of time to get a desired result. Likewise, there are people who've been drawing all their life and havnt really improved at all..
My point is that people improve in all different ways, some needed patience & time, others needed observation & the will to try new ways of drawing without fear of ruining it. Some needed both.
& then theres those that no matter how hard they try, no matter how long they try, they are never able to get the skill they desire. It just doesn't click for them.
Time isn't the only thing you need. But its certainly good of you to reveal one piece of the puzzle.

Thank you for making this, it's just what I need.

thats my problem,thanks for this animation!!

My art changed alot from taking 30 mintes in all to 30 mins. just for the sketch

OMG! this is so true! >w<

This is excellent advice! :D My first few paintings, I took the longest I've done, but they looked awful (i didn't know how to use the tools that well lol). Then i spent waaaaay too little time and they still looked awful xD. Now i'm taking more time and they look a loooot better. I spend about 1 hour on paintings, so now i should spend more time... Thanks for the awesome video painting thingy!

Yeah. I think that time can improve art, too! : )

Actually, I was amazed on how long it took me to produce some of my pics, even if some parts of them included small amounts of color to be added or details to be applied. I guess it just goes to show, if you take your time in art, you can really go far in talent. ; D

so true....practice make perfect =D

re: no probs RR :D Your work IS inspiring! :)

Thanks I always get demoralized when people draw faster than me. (my profile pic took me 21 hours to draw...)

How on EARTH did you make that animation??? Did you downloadnan animation app or something? People keep making amazing animations and I do NOT know howmthey do it?!

holy freaking cow! ive never seen anyone make an actual animation on here! and this one is so freaking amazing!!!

Time has also improved your animation skil, it's amazing! : D sadly I can't spend as much time on a painting, due to only being able to play about 2 hours a day. But thank you for the very motivational animation!

as much as i try i f****** suck go look at my gallery i only got 30 followers and im follwing alot of people...GOD LIVE SUCKS 4 ME FFFFFFFFFFUUUUIUUUUUUU

That is so true,Time does improve art,just look at my pictures.I usually take FOUR hours to draw them.

HOW DID YOU DO IT?! PLEASE TELL ME! :O

Fantastic job Rogue...thats how u boost moral up in here!

Pretty nice animation! :)
but (in half) i dont think so, i think its not time, its 'effort' if you being lazy you'll spend little time, and if you put more hardwirk you'll spend in long time.
and its also depend on your skills, if you do more practice you will improve your skill then you may draw in little time yet good quality.
anyway, good job!

^Actually it is time because the more time you put in your paintings the more you improve which is to gain a static of effort. In my starter painting i put no effort and drew random, but time passes, look at me now.
To Rouge Ranger, you make the best animations and you are very helpful to the Colors Community! :D
You're awesomw bro!

Wow. That was FOREVER making the title. And I like that blonde dude's perm :3

It took me a few years to develop my art style. I went thorough many different styles before I found one that I was comfterble with. I like to expariment sometimes but thats normal.

"I usually spend 1 hour on a painting. Now I'm going to spend 2! Or 8! Or 100!!!!!"

omg this inspired me sooo much ;D

I felt like taking time on your art was rule no. 1 of art.

it's cool how you even made the letters better on the right side :D

wow ^-^ I shud try tht :P

Ironically, there's like, 3 mispelled words in this video. XD

Bravo, time tells all SO I CAN DEFINITELY Support this kind of dedication :3 #Stylez

I guess the moral of this story is to take your time!
