Draw Yourself as a Teenager
I'm supposed to be resting, but I couldn't resist [info]davario's "Draw Yourself as a Teenager" meme (saw the meme on [info]enerjak's journal. Hers is one of my favorites, check it out!).



Man, that's pretty much exactly how I look these days. OH, THE PLIGHT OF NOT BEING COOL.

EDIT: Maybe not exactly the same. I no longer wear flannel and I'm packing about 25 more pounds than I did when I was a teenager (metabolism, you are a cruel mistress).

Aww, thanks. I was such a style challenged little nerdling. AND FLANNEL IS ALL THE FASHION YOU NEED. FLANNEL BONDING MOMENT.

Heehee. Yes, I totally forgot that I went through a Canadian-at-heart period until I sat down to draw! Which is funny, because I was seriously into it back in the day. (After leaving California for college, though, I totally realized that my heart belongs to San Francisco, greatest city-state in all the nations.)

Thanks! I also identified with yours, as a computer-hopping fanfic junkie.

I think one of the neatest things about this meme is seeing how people who have art in common now also had a lot of things in common as teens? There's so many pictures I'm like "word" to!

(Going through some of the links through davario's original post) - It is interesting because this meme basically singles out all the artists (if I could draw I would do it... but I can't) and it is interesting how there are running themes, like drawn-on shoes, and them bags!

... I'm a month late. Oh well. I like your current style though... chunky armwarmers eh...? Might have a look around for them next winter :)

Meant to comment earlier. I am amused at your younger self's refusal to look at all girly... and then the dreaded light wash jeans! Aaah! Don't feel bad though, my 17-year-old self had a bunch of low-rise jeans because they were what was on the rack... so not a good choice for me, haha.

I made one of these yesterday, and wanted to make a today version but then was lame. I'll post the teenage self one at least. :-D
