Comparing these recent sketches with those just seven months ago seems crazy to me. They look like shit compared to other art from the community, but I am still stoked about the improvement in that time frame.

It still took that long to finally draw another good friend tho, my first kitty :3

Sharing all these things also felt great. I usually keep things I learn for myself, it's just the way I am. But I wanna start sharing my progress with the community and improve over the next years.

Playing around with digital art is definitely something I wanna do more of. But I should improve my setup at home, since a drawing tablet takes up quite a lot of desk space that is also needed for gaming, home office and pretty much everything else.

But digital art is so much fun and lots to learn.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
It's been such a fun journey so far, and I wanna continue improving and exploring more niche kinks & ideas with my art, cause I enjoy plenty of those myself hehe

But until then I am mostly enjoying the process of learning as I go and all these "click" moments.

My sketches have been becoming faster and better over time. The quality is still inconsistent, but I'd say it's improving for sure. It depends on the days, how I'm feeling, how much time I have, etc. But I'm getting there and I love that for me.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
We're starting my second sketchbook! And I've been drawing my friend a lot, since he already has plenty of references out there haha

Also, drawing two people interacting is way more fun to me than solo pictures.

Here I was experimenting with extra quick doodles and coming up with stickers that I wanna do digitally. Some of them have been made, but I rushed the process too much and I'll need to redo them properly soon.

I've focused a lot on speed in that time, to still fit the sketching into my days.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
I remember it was becoming hard to keep drawing without becoming repetitive at some point. But it's also fun to try to be creative and come up with stuff I haven't done yet.

Because I know that with everything I do, I tend to start becoming complacent and stop experimenting.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
Back to the sketchbook tho, I wasn't drawing every day anymore, but still trying out new things and it's a huge difference from day 1 already.

Although it's still far from good, there's aspects I like in everything that I draw. And if I don't like something, I hope that I can learn from that too.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
I might as well add two more pics that I made at that time. I tried different ways of doing things, sometimes timeboxing myself just for the sake of learning, which you might be able to tell in the first one here haha

But still, just cool to see art I've made on my screen with color.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
At that time I really started turning my sketches into digital art too, since I ought to learn those tools eventually.

I am actually really happy with these, color just adds so much to art and I am missing out on that in my sketchbooks.

Here is some more Nick and sketches that are supposed to look more like my sona Ari. We're slowly getting somewhere now.

I also started drawing friends, it just made sense.

No furry porn career can be complete without a dip into Nick drawings, so of course here he is :3

Also was fed up with my canines looking so generic, so I tried to get better at drawing wolves, to make them more distinguishable.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
My Tabaxi drawing from the previous post showed me I wanted to improve at drawing furries, since I love furry art myself.

Also, here's a couple of knotted dicks that I drew at various stages of my progress, trying to understand how to use the tools I have in digital art. Still feels weird to me.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
I messed around a little bit with digital art as well. Those are not in any chronological order, I think these all came before my first sketch in my sketchbook. The chicken and wolf were drawn while looking at an image on my PC, which shows I guess.

I still think the bear is really cute tbh :3
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
The second attempt was a little better, but still looks hideous. But I think overall I did start to improve. Tiny steps, but I really enjoyed it.

Most of my art was furry porn, but whatever keeps you motivated I guess lol
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
I've drawn a bit when I was a kid, but that was mostly copying stills from movies. I was rarely as engaged as I was with these doodles, cause I had to think about how it's supposed to look instead of copying what's already there.

That also means messing up at perspective, like in the 4th sketch.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
When I started in April this year, I wanted to at least draw one thing a day. Looking at the first pictures, there is already some improvement here. But like I said, obviously it's all very early and only sketches. Still, there was a lot of thinking about it, since I've never really drawn before.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
Also hi to the SubscribeStar team, this is definitely not just me dumping all my art, so I can be verified and play around with my profile and webhooks :3

Jokes aside tho, I might just keep posting my sketches and future art anyways, after all I really enjoy drawing and especially learning.
November 27, 2025 at 5:52 PM
Gonna start uploading the sketches from my sketchbook, and a couple of first attempts at digital art as well. It's gonna start out bad and only become a *little* better over time, so manage your expectations.

So look at my sketch portfolio or don't, I'll keep yapping about it either way.

Please do, nothing you're into is off limits to me. I love some exhibitionism, with it without a side of embarrassment.

And here's what *will* happen if you give me belly rubs (also by @chanderdeerfox.bsky.social)
