My New Years resolution was to enter a kendo tournament and gain some rank in kendo. I've done both of those, so I'm ready for 2010.

... I have no New Years resolution... no wait, I think I'm going to try and shut up a bit more. Every year I get a little less talkitive. Surprisingly- you can get to a point where you rarely talk and people will still say you never shut up 0_o.

My New Years resolution is to learn how to draw manga from scratch instead of copying poses.

At least I don't trace.

you say that as if tracing is bad... I trace to learn new styles. it's just faster and in my case way more effective. it forces you to look closely at how they're doing things differently from you and it's just awesome.

of course, no one should seriously trace for serious things, but...

Aaaah~ I forgot how awesome Angelic Layer was. Oh, the golden days of CLAMP. From what I hear their series these days aren't as good. *sighs* And they used to be so well known and idolized... So sad how Tsubasa Chronicles ended in a meme/troll end (or so I hear), and I hear xxxHolic isn't all that good either.

btw: tracing IS bad. :| Because it can easily become a crutch and turn into the only way one can draw. Plus tracing the pose doesn't make you better at it. You don't see or understand how the body works in that pose yourself because all you're doing is thinking "A line goes here" not "The leg should be shaped like this".

What do you think of copying poses? Like scenes out of a manga? :/ That's what I *do*. I would like to be able to draw from total memory... I'm *assuming* copying poses at least gives you a sense of anatomy. I just kind of sketch the outline and face and draw everything else from scratch, just looking at the picture again for reference.

I feel immoral about though because my "drawings" are reproductions of someone else's drawings.

Agreed- Angelic Layer was a favorite of mine. I watched some Chobits once- pretty odd 0_o... though Angelic Layer and Chobits are set in the same world but the Persocoms come later on after the Angels.
