Thank you all very much for the reviews and compliments. I'm away from my scanner every other week, so I'll have some new drawings up by friday.

I like the idea's that you used for your pics, but I can't help but get the feeling that you spend too little time drawing your pics. Maybe you should try coloring your pics some time, because you can fix a lot of small things while tracing your pic, like wobbly lines and minors character proportion errors. If you want I can make a tracing and coloring guide, so you can try it out.

By the way, your last pic with Lisa and her necklace isn't that bad. It's pretty good actually

Okay, it's my turn now...

First of all, most of your recent pics show very interesting ideas; for example that picture with centaur Lisa fixing her own horseshoe... it could be a great, adorable picture if executed correctly! Even without artist skills, you could make it way better if you spend at least 5 more minutes with it. Yes, it's not easy to draw a horse or a pony, but you can use that episode as a reference. I hope you can understand me... spend more time with each picture, and they will turn out much better than now. Quality, not quantity. And don't tell me about hands - I have as shaky hands as you do (you should have seen some of my sketches - they are extremely messy), but that's only the extra reason to dedicate more time to your drawings.

I won't comment each of the pictures this time... only say that 1) I liked some of the ideas you tried to picture there, liked a lot; and 2) it would be nice if you tried to follow at least one of the advises given here. Because they could help you with your art greatly; and from my side, I can only ask you once again to do some grabpics. I wish Omar was here; his advises helped me (I believe they did); maybe they were boring and solely technical, but they worked.

an excellent work again!!!…    I see with joy that your improved drawing …  :pyou do simplified the lines that you use to obtain better results…     your outline has improved a little … and the proportions are single question of practice …    
hmmm… its drawing is very good… in special the attitude of Lisa in some pictures… (yours LF pics for example)    

Please...keep drawing !!! …
and thanks for you art!

Wow. I thought people with that level of stupidity had died out by now, but apparently they still exist. You have absolutely nothing to fear from such stupid people. It's funny to see some people think they can send virusses to another computer. You shouldn't stop drawing, because some some *ss is telling you it's bad. As you may have noticed in this thread, most people like your art. So why would you stop if some people say something else?

If your still afraid of getting virusses and you don't already have an anti-virus program, you should download AVG here: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/avg-anti-virus-free/lng/us/tpl/v5 It's a free anti-virus program that will protect your PC from getting infected with virusses.

I think locking the thread is not the right thing to do at this moment. I will give you a little time to think about it and if you insist, i will do as you ask. But read the following first, please

First of all: As Suusje said, people who threaten to "fill your computer with viruses" are the first ones to be ignorant about computers and how viruses work. That is an empty, and kind of dumb, threat: so don't put too much weight on it. Again, as Ssusje said, if you are still afraid, there's nothing like a good antivirus cannot solve. People smart enough to know how viruses really work are smart enough to not do these kind of dumb threats.

About the private messages about your art: i think it's not a mistery that your level is still one of a beginner, and i truly hope that no one here is being "angry" about it. Everyone must start somewhere, and talent is not something that can be found under the rocks. You're not drawing anything offensive: at least you are trying and you seem to be willing to listen to our advices for improving, and from what i readed so far, people here appreciate this.

So, if anyone has anything negative (constructive or not) to say about your art, they can do it in this very thread, because this is the reason why we're here: if they tell it to you in private, it means they have something they dont want others to know, so i wouldnt give too much credit to their opinions, especially if they're coupled with the threats of above.

I'm leaving the thread open, to let people voice their opinions. I would like anyone to behave and not start witch hunts. As you know, they raise more probems than they solve

the badness of the people is incredible…    

 is envies….    is single envies…      

hmmm…. SERGE !!!!! this it is a relatively new site….      I am not detective…   but lisa-simpson.net not yet appears in Google…     

nor I do not locate links either…     

these stupid types must know the birth the page by other means…     or by another website ….    hmmm…. I will continue investigating….     

  I am really worried….

Here's 2 pictures of a new series of "Lyrics Pictures" I am doing. They aren't really illustrations from any story, but the song that the lyrics are from is Five for Fighting's "Superman". The second pic is colored mainly because the other one would be too hard to color. Also, thanks To Serge, Leon, and Marco for the reference pics, and once again to Leon for some very helpful hints about flash and photoshop.

Here's the first pic, not colored.
