I actually need to stay with that deadline :P

I prefer to draw when I feel like it, so that I don't feel forced to draw. That's why I suck at deadlines with art. Other than that, I managed to stay happy with my art, knowing it's going to improve. And it has, a lot.

I would like to give an example.

Last year, when I started out:

I would like to say, though, that those words helped me power through my art, even though I hated my art for a while.

I only set general deadlines. No actual set times and such. And it usually is more time than is needed.

For instance, some of the art I will probably finish today have a deadline set for before spring break.

True. I've been going through this for a while, but I kept telling myself to keep up with it.

Behold, how I improved over my time of drawing ponies.

First pony ever drawn:

As you can see, I improved pretty significantly; and I still have lots of things to learn.

I am currently taking a composition class now, so hopefully that will help me cure my case of writer's block. Hopefully I will be able to continue working on Fallout Effect. Maybe even get started on my story about Bob the friendly Kantus. (his name isn't actually Bob, the other characters just call him that because his name sounds more like some unitelligable growling)
