It's easy to compare your artworks and drawing techniques to those of the greats and feel miserable. But if you're an aspiring creator you need to understand that nobody was born a genius and everyone has to start somewhere. And nothing proves this better than the 'Draw This Again' challenge (previously here and here).

Its rules are really simple. Artists upload side-by-side images of their earlier and current works, showcasing how much they've progressed. And some of the participants are even redoing their old pencil sketches, which makes the effect of the then and now comparison so much stronger. From realistic drawings to surreal character design, scroll down to check out the improvements and the unique art they've made over the years and upvote your favorites of these beautiful drawings.

it's called hyperrealism. Some people don;t like this kind of art cause looks like just a mere photo, but i think these artists deserve their merits

    Exactly - it is a massive demonstration of an artist's skill and patience to spend so much time creating an image identical to a photograph taken in 100th of a second, but ultimately pointless in modern times

    Well done. I don't like to give critique because I can't draw at all. But since you asked for it, my positive critique: The lines of the t-shirt are too hard in comparison to the face and neck (imho), which are so soft. Plus I would add more details like shadows and folds in the t-shirt, like you did in the first drawing. And I would have placed the ears a little higher. Just my opinion. But a 1000 times better than I would be able to draw. So, good job!

    :) 2017 much better shadowing/anatomy/posture. Some may prefer a style closer to the first. But the improvement in the second is just undeniable. Keep up with the good work.

    Of course the righr one is better. But i like the nose touching in the first one. It seems like a recurring thing here to see artist "loosing" there originality in the profit of accuracy. A sharp drawing is not everything. Good work anyway.

    It seems mostly a change of style. They are both really good, just different.
