Post drawings you've made of the same character over the years

I want to see the evolution of your art.

[Orichan]

These go from old to new... I don't really know if I'm getting better but I think I'm getting more comfortable

first two drawings of Gray, my comic protagonist, compared to a couple of the most recent ones outside of comic pages (since those are lower quality). third one is in between the first two and the last ones by a couple years. not a drastic change as I was already pretty settling into my style at 18, but her hair makes more sense now!

Back then in 2015, Jack looked like this:

Now he looks like this:

I've kept this around to remind myself that I am improving:
Her name is Sadie Lurker (AKA Knife Teeth).

Evan went through lots changes over the years, personality-wise too. .

version 1 - started as a support character with a totally different, shy personality

Verison 2- he then got more serious and goth, didn't have his signature saliva powers XD

Version 3-
2D concept that led to his current design-
he became the MC, and had a reckless and mischievous personality

Final Version as seen in Webcomic
He's mostly based on Version 3, reckless, optimistic and mischievous
Both he and his younger brother Owen are MCs, with Evan being the tougher one
[While I've used this top in promos, he never actually wears it in series]

Over the episodes his initial Black-ish/ Goth-ish look has been fading for a blue theme

Further in comic series it's revealed he's blonde and just has temporary black hair-dye
(more of a jock and not actually a goth kid)

updated his features slightly last year

I've been drawing my Dragon Age warden for 15 years now :_D Talk about a good hyper fixation! The first pics are from around 2013-2014, but there are so many silly comics and pics of him from 2010 on my own deviantart account

Literally this was my first illustration for 2025 soooo we're still here lol

A lot of my oldest work are long gone, but here's some random ocs. Not really from my comics or anything though, since I usually run shorter stories:

Francis the vampire
2019 -> 2025

Isis, just a little immortal dude.
2019 -> 2022 -> 2025

Lantia. Just a sad girl with wings.
2019 -> 2024

"Currently, I don't have any pictures of my novel's character from the past; I can only show the latest design."

She comes from an old single-player RPG game. She’s not my OC, but she was a key reason I started wanting to learn how to draw. She’s my waifu.
The following works are sorted by creation time.

The oldest piece of art I have for Ashi II I did a long time ago, his outfit on the cover is actually the outfit he's wearing on the newest cover, just a bit more refined.

Old art of him I did in my art class in high school:

Final Volume 1 Cover Art (also final design)

This is the earliest drawing I could find of him. I think this was in 2018

This one was around 2020 were I kinda figured out his design a little more

This is from 2024 where i was well into my comic and had his design and character figured out

This is one of my most recent drawings of him. Definitely Not my oldest character but one of my favorites
