Draw this again - Darshana

Description

I feel bad about my art non-stop, so I thought doing something like this would make me feel better... but it didn't. ^^; My mother saw these two drawings next to each other (without context) and told me both were very good and I wanted to cry. XD;;;
The old one was done literally a couple of days before I made an account on :devart: And it's been 9 years. Frigging nine years. What have I been doing all these years? Other artists can improve this much in 1-2 years.
I'm a bit afraid of doing these things because last time I posted something like this, a girl thanked me saying I made her feel better about her own art and improvement (in other words she meant I sucked so bad it gave her hope). :iconorzplz:

The character is one of my really old OCs, Darshana. I don't draw my OCs a lot, but she's my favourite female OC lately.

Well, you've definitely improved when it comes to shading (I notice that most readily because I suck at it); your colour selection looks much more natural, and less clashing; the face has an actual "feel" to it, instead of looking like you just copied from a "how to draw manga style" book; and the hair on the second one looks FANTASTIC. (The first one, the hair is still better than I can do, but it's nowhere near as good as the second.)

Does that help?
