Description So, because of last night's idea burst (You know, that moment when you were about to sleep and your brain decides to flood you with seemingly wonderful ideas), I came up with this crazy idea that will be of great benefit to me if I manage to keep it up. I'd like to call it as ''My Weekly Deviation".

The idea is to create a deviation that will follow a theme that will change each and every month. The drawing should be original and must be given much more effort. Every time I submit the weekly deviation here, I'll rate myself from 1-20 based on 5 categories (Cleanliness, Concept, Shading, Effort, and Speed) giving a total of 100 points (If you guys are kind enough, you could do the same rating too). This way, I can have a good practice, a way to keep myself busy and also evaluate my progress in terms of drawing.

(tl;dr   I draw weekly based on a monthly theme and then I rate myself.)

Now, for this month, I chose the theme ''Books''. I have no idea why but the word just popped into my mind as I was staring into my sketchpad last night. 

And since this is my first entry for My Weekly Deviation, I decided to start with something simple. I drew a simple book.

Now for the self-rating and comment:
     Cleanliness - 14 / 20 - I'm kinda surprised to see how clean -er this is than my other works.
     Concept - 1 / 20 - Crap Concept.
     Shading - 7 / 20 - Horrible, The strokes are really visible and it's kinda really uneven.
     Effort - 11 / 20 - Not much effort put in there. I'll just say that "This is my first one" as an excuse.
     Speed - 15 / 20 - Took me about 15 minutes. Not bad I guess.

     Total - 48 / 100

Well, I guess I'd have to do better next time. xP
