      Got the idea from DanialG and taboo. I thought it would be really fun and interesting. The idea is basic. If it's not basic enough, follow these steps.

      1)Dig up your old drawings from the past.
      2)Redraw them like you would do now.
      3) Optional, but commentary could be nice.

      If that's not basic enough for you, then I don't know what is. Alright, let's get started!

      Edit: There's a mistake on the first set. Shiron is the rightmost one, not the left.

        This is actually an AWESOME idea, I think I have some old "stick-figures fighting"-comic pages deep down in a box somewhere I should redraw.

        Who exactly is Mumbo?

          Haha~ This looks really fun! I'm gonna find an old pic from like, elementary in middle school and redraw it. Luckily I've saved all my pics since years before then 'cause I'm a horrible horrible packrat.

          Slytherin all the way, baby~

            I've found 2 old pieces from the 4th/5th grade.
            I'll be doing this one later

                    Not sure if these count since I drew the latter in August (I think).
                    Anyway, Vice-Admirals.

                    !
                    I wanted to draw the five Enies Lobby Buster Call VAs. However, instead of Yamakaji, there's T-Bone. Everybody sucks except for him I think. I wasn't pleased with this at all, so I redrew it a year later (or I don't know when…)

                    !
                    Much better. And Yamakaji is actually here, yay! In the end I noticed Onigumo looks like he's about to fight Momonga. That was completely unintentional.
                    And you might have noticed that Strawberry's looking either right or left. That's because there weren't any good pictures of him only this kind. Meh…

                    It's not that big of a development though... I'll probably redraw my (so far only) own character, but now I don't really have much time.

                      This sounds like a lot of fun. There's some really horribly drawn characters from my fail comic I made in 7th grade I've been wanting to redo (got to make one of them not so Black Rose-ish though >_>) and this other picture I did that was awesome at the time I'd like to redo :P

                      Your stuff is awesome, Hiroy :) You've really improved!

                        Any old pics you guys want to see redone?

                          Sonic: If only I had my stick figure drawings. lol. Looking forward to it.

                          Sia: I like how realistic your proportions are. Not only that, you has a pretty good idea what cloth was back then. It's no surprise how that improved now. It makes me wish my sketches wasn't so wild and messy.. then again, I usually do so to play with my own mistakes (and to avoid picking up an eraser).

                          Looking forward to see what everyone else could come up with.

                            Sia? Who's that? xD

                            Thanks! I went through a renaissance of sorts between then and now with my art style. I just got fed up with how unrealistic my art looked. And that's about the time I started paying more attention to OP and, well, shounen in general. And I loved how everyone looked real (not like, irl like you or me or something, but their designs, and actions, and motions and expressions and everything matched their personalities and it made them seem more realistic as opposed to really cutesy characters with almost no personality whatsoever) and I loved how much wacky stuff OP could get away with it's style, and I wanted to do that. So I started drawing more correct proportions and more shounen-esque.

                            Haha, sorry for the rambling. xD

                            As for the clothe, I just payed attention to what Oda's desings looked like and compared it to what I knew clothes looked like back then and did my own thing. It's really fun~ But my sketches are actually really really, well, sketchy. They have stray lines everywhere, haha. It's just when I draw with pen I try to be less messy, since you can't erase. xD I like your mindset though. I never really play around with mistakes too often, but considering your style, I think that's a perfect way to avoid artists block.

                            Thanks for the compliments, Hiroy! <3

                              Here's the one from 4th/5th Grade. I really want to redo it once I'm better at facial structures. I had to use a ref and it still turned out retarded.

                              Seriously tho, I'll redo it, no excuse for how ugly it looks.

                              And for those who haven't seen the one in my topic.

                                … I honestly have no idea what your defenition of retarded art is, but I know that it is defenetly not the same as mine. Jesus, man, that looks amazing!Although I can tell the differences between the old one and the new one design wise. But even if that isn't your official redone one, I still think that it looks awesome. I love the shading and the colors. The only problem I see is the neck, but that's it. <3

                                      I've selected my victims. What I've got here makes your crappy scraps look like jewels, Sea XD

                                      It's the typical 7th grade animu. I'm ashamed I ever did it, but it was where I started:
                                      [hide]

                                      Yumiko Hanazaki. Obvious Black Rose ripoff. I'm going to alter the hair and outfit to where hopefully it's not much of a blatant rip off. This piece is about 6 years old now.
                                      [/hide]

                                      [hide]

                                      Jack Harlow. He was in the same comic as Yumiko. I never really drew his outfit, so I guess it's mostly a total new version XD
                                      [/hide]

                                      [hide]

                                      Sloie. This character was originally created alongside Arei, which makes her first incarnations 10 years old (holy shit). This was from 2004, however I've drawn her since 2002 atleast. I cannot find the horrifying picture of how I used to draw with the heads 1000x larger than the bodies, but it makes this look like a masterpiece .___.

                                      Eventually became a shitty KH OC. So I'll make it look like an obvious but hopefully not as horribly drawn KH character just for shits and giggles.

                                      One of the more recent incarnations of Arei. This was probably from 2005 or 06. I have a new picture of her from 07 I think, where I got rid of the crazy shirt design, but I'm just gonna go for something else entirely while still trying to stick with the flowy theme.

                                      I'm also going to do a new version of this craptasic piece more as a, learn how to draw more dynamic shit practice, but I guess it somewhat counts: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v321/otakurealm/Living_in_Sin_by_squeegoddess.jpg

                                      Gaaaaaah that's such shit. That was before I ever learned anything about proper inking and using the damn line tool. It's still from a story that holds a lot of meaning so, I think its worth giving it another shot so something less offensive then this can return to my gallery .___.

                                      I dunno how much better it will be. I've been sort of stalled for 2 years as drawing is something I'd do when I felt good, and well >_>

                                        This one was kinda frustrating rather than fun. The process I mean… I think I may end up doing it again since I altered the original idea too much.

                                        Don't ask how something like that came out of an art class. It was one of those required courses in public school, so it the curriculum wasn't strict... at all.

                                            Wow! I really love the newer design of her! It looks so awesome and, just, really really cool to look at. <3 It almost makes me wanna draw my version of her!

                                            Haha, for art class? I swear, in most of my art classes I learned more outside of them doing things on my own than I ever learned inside of them. Having an older sister who was into art might have had something to do with that, but still. One year, the art teacher just made us copy pictures. All year. gah.

                                              Is it okay if I do some from MS Paint? I can't put my pictures on the computer….

                                                Eh, mspaint, Paint.NET, Photoshop, paper and pencil, I doubt it matters. It's just to show how much you've improved. c:
