Val and Artie Real-ized

Description

Just yesterday on tumblr, I saw this pretty interesting picture that described how 'style' and 'skill' aren't the same thing.
Furthermore, you cannot achieve a 'style' without 'skill'. Having a 'style' doesn't show how good of an artist you are.

And while I do agree with this statement, it got me thinking about my own skill.

So, to test myself, I doodled Artie and Val in a different style ~ more realistic.
Don't let the cartoon doodles of Val and Atie's disgust throw you off, I'm actually quite proud of the work I've done here. ^-^

Though this is just a doodle. Not really a finished picture. So I may put it in my scrapbook on DeviantArt later.

Will I do more of these in the future? Yeah, probably. Maybe as a test here and there.

(By the way, if you're wondering about Val's ears, yes I have re-designed them again. I'll explain further in my next drawing.)

I like these renditions of your characters, it shows a unique aspect you can't really get with your usual style. Of course, it's not as expressive, but that's kinda part of the territory, isn't it...

Your use of values is great; the forms and textures are very clear!
