Well, instead of just sitting around wallowing in nihilistic depression I figured to just force drawing anything random. No structure, no rules, just try to get some sort of energy to it.
So here's a sketch dump, including my favourite minion in the game.

Those look amazing !!
If you would allow some criticism... I can see what you mean with the stiffness: your drawings are TOO clean.
You seem to have a very clear image in your mind of what you want to draw, that you won't allow your lines to get away from that.

I suggest that you let yourself go in things like clothes and hair... in fact, I have a challenge for you: draw stuff under water.

I'm not saying that you will have a hard time drawing that, I know you can... the point is to let your pen do wavy things, hair out of place, wrinkles in clothes, funny poses... go wild !!
I'm sure you will have lots of fun and refine your style

OT: I will post my art later, is unfinished and in another PC.
