    Bust out that last page of imgur or your first photobucket account cause I want to see the oldest and arguably cringiest, piece of art you're able to conjure from your days as just a wee artist on the internet.

    Here's mine so y'all don't feel alone lol. I'm pretty sure this is among one of the first pieces I EVER posted to PC (which was also incidentally the first place I ever posted my art online).

    Like... what anatomy? lmao.

  • my imgur only goes back up to 2012 or so. my oldest art (i dunno if you can really call this art, more like Photoshop edit?) is apparently this attempt at a profile picture lmao. i was pretty proud of it then tho.

  • I'm pretty sure this isn't the oldest (because I know I have a worse one, I just can't find it) but it sure was awful way way back in 2010 hahaha
    Spoiler:

  • I have some drawings from some good 15 years ago taped to my childhood room's door.

    I'll see if I can find a way to share one or two of them cuz they're amazingly horrible and fun to look at :P

  • This is a piece that I painted when I attended high school all those years ago. It's not the oldest but, it is old 😂

    how about now?

    Oh awesome thanks for fixing it. ♡

    Also... ummm.. it's amazing! I knew you had a knack for artistry but I wasn't expecting such an awesome photorealistic piece. We're supposed to be sharing our oldest art here, you know, lol. :P

    Haha fair enough, fair enough. But if you stumble across some sketchbooks from your early days as a budding artist with Pokémon and anime waifus in it you better share those too!

    Oh oh oh!! I completely forgot I have a painting I did 15+ years ago that my dad has hanging in his house cause he's sentimental like that. Next time I see him I'll take a pic and post it. I made it as a school project so it's like ancient now and predates all of my oldest internet art haha.

    I don't think I have my early stuff that I put on the internet flying around. I have a bunch of folders with stuff ranging back about ~15 years ago at home. I'll see to get something posted when I find the time for it. In the meantime I'll just refer to my gallery because that stuff in there despite being mostly from last year+ still looks very similar to the stuff I did 15 years ago.

    And I do not understand why you all consider your stuff cringy when my reaction is just like "if only I could draw that well" <_<

    I used to draw a lot of stuff many years ago. At some point I started collecting my images in a folder. A bunch of them were just random stuff, some others were full stories that I drew picture by picture. This one is the very first one I ever put in there.

    Nope! No idea who Hinata is, though it's very possible I referenced a picture of her without realizing it. This is a very, very old drawing after all. Anything is possible lol.
