Fanart: Sketch of "The Reaper" ♥

Feb 09, 2010 12:55

Here's a sketch I did last night of C. Thomas Howell as "The Reaper" in "Criminal Minds" and I think it totally sucks!

It made me "squeee", then go "oh..maybe he's just being nice and thinking "why must my fans make me appear so grotesque?!"

(toughest critic)

Is he on Twitter too perhaps?

There are several accounts on Twitter claiming to be him but I think he has one (which he never updates). He's basically said Facebook is his main way of keeping in touch with his fans.

OMG. I'm so ecstatic for you. That's very exciting. (I know the feeling because there's a certain '80s rockstar who keeps in touch with me and who likes going through my photos, among other things.) "Squee" would be an understatement if it were me. I wouldn't be able to wipe the grin off my face for at least a few days afterward!
And it's beautiful, really. It makes me seriously consider going back to drawing and sketching more often. You're good!!

Last night I hated it and was like "I'm never drawing again" but after seeing his comment, I was like "ya'know what? I'm going to practice my ass off so I can impress the pants off of him with the next one!"

That is soooo cool! Congrats and I think the drawing shows a lot of promise.
Without knowing anything else about the drawing, I would have said it was an excellent original character.

Thanks...as stated, it's been 10 years so it's a rough start but I'm now determined to get and do better!

If you are interested, there is a pretty supportive, infomative LJ art community. I believe it's called "Art Beta". If you get stuck, have questions and such, there are a lot of talented artists who can give advice.

Every piece you do teaches you something - enjoy your journey! : )

Ooo, thanks so much..I'll look into it!

Sweet! It's really cool that he likes it!

clear_sarcasm February 9 2010, 22:53:51 UTC

I hope he actually does like it and wasn't just being nice but it gave me a boost and encouraged me to try again and do better.

He's such a nice guy!
