I was thinking of doing this as a meme! But I don't want to tag anyone yet! What you need to do is just recall your drawing style of humans from when you were a little kid up to the drawing style you have now. You can only use one character, and draw it in those drawing styles that you used to have.

Let me introduce to you on of my human OCs, Molly. She's from my imaginary TV Show, which is a live action show, so that means... my characters are based from celebrities they're played on (well in this case, she's based on Jayma Mays)! Molly is just a minor character by the way...

As I always say, "I'm not good at drawing humans.", but here, I'm showing you my way of drawing humans from when I started drawing them up to now.
Okay, now I'll be talking about them. :P

1. Duh, I bet everyone started drawing humans like this when they're just toddlers!

2. I've probably drawn these when I was at kindergarten... My human stick has "more" details, and has hair and feet, but I didn't remember if I drew stick hands on them too. :P

3. Started drawing like that since 1st grade. I didn't remember where I got this style, it's either I got it from a painting or some drawings in a book.

4. Probably started this style by 2nd grade up to 3rd grade. Now they got tapered hands and feet shown, but I can't draw hands that time, they're just plain hard to draw.

5. Replaced tapered hands with circular ones! I've used this a few months when I was at 4th grade. But the drawing shown here should look worse.

6, 7, & 8. These drawing styles are inspired from my classmate back in 4th grade. The bangs are gone, so as the face! I really don't like putting faces into human figures back then, it looks worse if I put them. I've used this kinds of drawing styles in my story notebook (in which I can't find any of the 3 story notebooks now). #7 is something that I only drew a few times, and regret drawing them... Just look at her tall tantalizing eyes! o.O I started using style #8 when I was in 6th grade up to 3rd Year High School.

9. This is the reason why I keep on saying "I'm not good at drawing human figures."... This is just an improved version of #8, I started drawing like that since 1st Year High School (when I was 13 years old), and I'm still drawing in that drawing style up to now (in some cases)! This is the same drawing style I used in "It's The Doodle's Fault"... the doodled piece of paper from which I got hooked into drawing cartoons, and thus, being a dA member!

10. I learned this style from other deviants and some cartoons! I just learned how to draw this way a few months ago. But I only used them for 2 months. One example of this drawing style is from my IT Crowd drawing [link]. I don't use this drawing style often either, I'm still sticking to #9 that time!

11. I learned this drawing style while drawing an art-trade for some deviant, which is this [link]. This is just a deviated version of someone's drawing style which ended up as my new drawing style! I've used this style many times (but some of them won't be uploaded in dA, since they're just doodles and practice sketches). Also, I learned how to draw celebrities and other people with this drawing style (like Mika, from my "We Are Golden" artwork and Jayma Mays, which is in this pic, although she looks fatter here. Her looks may improve and more accurate after a few months)!

Neat Chart. I sorta have a fusion of 5 and 9. But It changes so and so... I can never decide on a same way to draw.

I meant style #10 was inspired from ~MysticArk's style, not #11 (where the inspiration came from yours). Arghh! I made a mistake!

Actually, your not the only deviant here who I got some inspiration from my drawing style. I got some inspiration of style #11 from :iconmysticark:, with a bit of improvements on his design. And it's because I really like your drawing style! :D

Thanks for the comment by the way! :XD:
