A drawing 2 years in the making (Pixiv Fanbox)

I saw this before&after event and felt like it would be a good time to share this story. Back in 2021 after drawing and uploading a grand total of 7 drawings I decided to try and draw the Quintessential Quintuplets who I love. I staged it in parts in which I intended to upload each girl individually before combining them all together. I drew Miku and felt happy, I drew Nino and felt like it didn't look like her and wasn't working. It was around this time I tried changing my style and then I drew Ichika and I felt it was worse then the previous two so defeated I stopped, leaving a five part drawing at part three. Ever since then I've wanted to either go back to that drawing or do a different one and for a long time I've had this idea in my head but felt that my drawing skills weren't good enough to do the characters justice. But now with a little bit of patience and a lot of time I am happy to say I reached a finished drawing that I am happy with and proud of. So to anyone who wants to draw just take your time and spend as much time as you'd like on your art only an AI can produce a masterpiece in a few seconds and I bet that AI has no sense of pride. Thank you for the continued support and hope to see you all around for the next Before&After. Danda <3
