It's amazing how well you've honed your drawing skills Eqwanox.  My drawings looked like that when I was 9, but they didn't get better!  Lengths and distances and proportions are difficult for me to estimate, and forget about coloring and shading.

I got this cool book, it's called Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, it's about drawing what you see and goes over perspective, proportions on the head and portraits. I really like the way it explains that drawing isn't just a natural talent and it CAN be taught, if you take the time. It gets you to think about it in a different way...
Oh and I may have to post some of my old VS new stuff I saved quite a few drawings.

There's no shame in not being able to spell very well using a silly language like English. I'm convinced that it's among the most absurd written languages in the world! We hardly ever stick to any grammatical rules, so you might as well spell things the way they sound. That's how we ended up with half of the spellings we have nowadays anyway. ::)

Oh, loving the art btw! :D

I'm learning Japanese and the writing system requires you to spell things phonetically. And the grammar makes perfect sense!
IN ENGLISH you say "That is a pencil".
To make a question, switch words around: "Is that a pencil?". I don't really know why.

IN JAPANESE, to make such a sentence a question, just add "Ka".
That is a pencil:
"kore wa enpitsu desu".
Is that a pencil?
"kore wa enpitsu desu ka".

Sounds to me like "ka" is the english equivalent of ", right?".

That is a pencil.
That is a pencil, right?

My drawings from that age were all mazes.  I was obsessed with mazes.  I never drew big muscly dudes with guns.   :'(
