This year was... rough. My art was inconsistent, as well as my activities and focus direction... it made it hard to feel like any improvement was actually made, as far as style, anatomy, and all around feel. I've gotten a few pointers on shading... but I don't think i would go as far as to say its a drastic improvement. Far from that.
I still have a long way to go, let see how far I can push myself in 2015.
