THANK YOU FOR WATCHING THE VIDEO!! I'm surprised anyone is even interested in my old art ahaha!! LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT MORE OF THESE!! ALSO to anyone who asks about what age I was when drawing these: REWATCH THE VIDEO. I mention my age in the beginning of every sketchbook yeesh
LeslieLu Marie it's one of his many cat-like characteristics xD I just imagine Papaya somewhere off in the distance freaking out like "luCA YOU'RE GONNA HURT YOURSELF SToP"
Am I the only one who wants like Luca using the clothes of the old design with a face of like utter disgust, or like zenerith talking with Luca in the most awkward way
OMF you talking about kids turning into dragons like triggered a memory. In third grade I write this book (It was like four or five pages long I remember being super proud of it omfg) and it was about a girl who could turn into a dragon but she could only do it when she was like angry or some shit and her parents sent her to a boarding school (I spent like two paragraphs describing how amazing the playground was) and then like some people who hunted dragons found out about her there and so she had to go on the run (She was like 9 omg) and it was all intense and then I think she found a bunch of dragons kept in cages and freed them and then they beat the bad guys omf and I can't remember what I called it but that story was great I was gonna type it and print it out and everything I'm laughing so hard as I type this okay now I'm rambling
Addie Bechtel Lol that part about the girl who kept accidentally turning into a dragon reminds me of a book I actually read a few years ago! XD It was called The Dragon Princess by E.D. Baker
headcanon: luca used to actually look & act like that!! also, he sees a picture of himself looking like that and being disgusted by it (while paps is dying of laughter in the bg)
Zenythe walk into the bar like: "Yo bartender. My day? well, I Put some children in comas, jumped off some buildings, and killed those gay guys at that night club. So my day was pretty dope"
I was legit binging other artists' videos of their old sketchbooks and I was like "hmm I hope my favourite owl mum artist makes one of these one day" and bAM! IM PSYCHICHHHSHAH
yes!! I love seeing people's old art because I get to see how much you've improved!! I absolutely love your art now but seeing these is so hysterical because so much has changed. Keep up the good work~
I love seeing videos like these! it's always really cool to see the past drawings that artists you look up to have drawn, it's really inspiring and it get's me in the mood for drawing
I loved seeing your old art! It kind of helps knowing that it does help to practice so you can grow your style. I would love to see more of your old art, both traditional and digital!
it makes me feel so weird seeing others drawings from the age that im at the moment and really seeing how good i really am at drawing i want to thank you for this video makes me feel really secure about myself ❤
OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS GREAT! I had similar sketch books with such 'amazing' stories. They're embarrassing but this is a nostalgia trip! I love this - thank you for sharing!
OMG. Seeing this reminds me of this OC world I made up, it was weird & super cringe, let me explain: There was some girl with pink hair who could shape shift into animals or something idk i forget, she wore this weird fluffy white jacket, she was super clueless idk Then there was a guy who matched her lmao he had orange hair and he could shapeshift into things? like, a key? IDK WHY BUT I KEEP THINKING OF HIS NAME AS SANDY, OH MY GOD I HOPE IT WASNT SANDY, he was shy and blushed super easy i think there was a red head guy, he had this necklace orb thingy which was red with orange bubbles in it, it talked to him, he could turn into a dragon using it there was a girl idk what colour her hair was, but she was super tough and i have vague memories of drawing her dragging the redhead guy around with an angry look on her face??? she kicked him a lot too uh... and she had the same necklace orb thingy but it was blue and she could turn into an ice dragon there was this girl who could turn invisible and a girl who could read minds or something, one of them was tough and one of them was shy and bullied, they weren't lesbians but they fell in love at some point there was this witch girl with short black hair called sylvia, she had a dog as a familiar that could shoot a laser out of a star shape on its head (????) and there was a super tough mage guy with a fire demon cat familiar or something to top it all off, they all went to school together and nobody noticed anything when they didnt go to classes ever bc i had no understanding of highschool life as u can tell eveRYONE had an exact matches and oh my god im sorry
hmmm the original video, without any editing, was 40 minutes. so it wasnt that difficult on that part. the hardest part was the setup haha i was in a weird and uncomfortable position but thats just my fault for not having the right equipment lol
The first time I tried to record a sketchbook tour, I had my phone weirdly set up on a music stand against a window precariously... Set Up Is Important
this helped my self-esteem so much >~< i'm 14 and I manage to draw 'better' than your 16-year-old self, so that means I can still get to your level!!! :")
I know this would took a lot of work but maaaaaaaaaybe you should redesign some of them just to make a comparison y'know? I've done that with my old characters and it was fun :P
Wow, It's so nice to see your progression over the years! I just starting really getting into drawing and digital art, but this gives me hope that I can get better with experience!

Oh my gosh XD I skipped to a random point with the two elbows XD
12:10
God
So gay that hurts
Being a 13 year old, I like to watch this video a lot as sort of a "reassurance" that all artists were there at some point in there life.
"He definitely became a little more gay since then" lmao, my thoughts exactly. Fetus Luca gives me life.
Josie Cornwall lol read that when she said it 😆
zenith is my favorite character//slapped
this was a journey, id love to see more ;v;
I need more I was so happy when this came out because I was like old Luca!!!!
I love seeing videos like these! it's always really cool to see the past drawings that artists you look up to have drawn, it's really inspiring and it get's me in the mood for drawing
Moo Juice.
I loved seeing your old art! It kind of helps knowing that it does help to practice so you can grow your style. I would love to see more of your old art, both traditional and digital!
I wanna see more! Your art is so developed and changed a lot since then! X)
YES, YES, YES, can we pleeeeease see more sketchbook tours!

54th XD
It's great to see your old art, Leslie! You've come a long way!
I love seeing the old Luca omg, he'S CHANGED SO MUCH
So Emily was a succubus, model, and superhero all at the ripe age of young. Sounds like a Mary Sue to me.
You are my new favorite TH-cam artist!!
1. I loveeee your art
2. I found a good digital app because of you
3. Very thorough walkthroughs
Chekkerz looks really cool and crazy, i love it xD
OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS GREAT! I had similar sketch books with such 'amazing' stories. They're embarrassing but this is a nostalgia trip! I love this - thank you for sharing!
Everyone in the first sketch book was a SKEENY LEGEND XD
I was Soooooo dead when Luca appeared. I was laughing and smiling at his old designs and his interests. I would love it if you made a second part ^^
You should do a drawing of old Luca and new Luca meeting each other
I'm so glad that I found this TH-cam channel it actually helps me to improve my art!!
Ok, but there are honestly some pretty advanced art techniques for an elementary schooler here. 😂
Oh man, even looking at art from a month ago makes me thankful for improvement like holy moly.
OMG. Seeing this reminds me of this OC world I made up, it was weird & super cringe, let me explain:
There was some girl with pink hair who could shape shift into animals or something idk i forget, she wore this weird fluffy white jacket, she was super clueless idk
Then there was a guy who matched her lmao he had orange hair and he could shapeshift into things? like, a key? IDK WHY BUT I KEEP THINKING OF HIS NAME AS SANDY, OH MY GOD I HOPE IT WASNT SANDY, he was shy and blushed super easy i think
there was a red head guy, he had this necklace orb thingy which was red with orange bubbles in it, it talked to him, he could turn into a dragon using it
there was a girl idk what colour her hair was, but she was super tough and i have vague memories of drawing her dragging the redhead guy around with an angry look on her face??? she kicked him a lot too uh... and she had the same necklace orb thingy but it was blue and she could turn into an ice dragon
there was this girl who could turn invisible and a girl who could read minds or something, one of them was tough and one of them was shy and bullied, they weren't lesbians but they fell in love at some point
there was this witch girl with short black hair called sylvia, she had a dog as a familiar that could shoot a laser out of a star shape on its head (????)
and there was a super tough mage guy with a fire demon cat familiar or something
to top it all off, they all went to school together and nobody noticed anything when they didnt go to classes ever bc i had no understanding of highschool life
as u can tell eveRYONE had an exact matches and oh my god im sorry
Bridgett Barr
Can I draw these characters?
+starry Wolfy (Tanya) You're more than welcome to haha
Lmao thx (I cringed while drawing xD)
OMG I luv the 2ed redesign of Luca
Omg I love the redesign of Luca (sorry if I spelled that wrong)*
Wow... I can only draw cats XD You're a really good artist!
this made me remember I still have ALL of my sketchbooks I've ever had my entire life piled up in my closet
this should be a comedy show, this made me laugh so much XD
My respect for you has grown whenever I see my old sketch books I'm like
IM BURNING THE MEMORIES BURNING THE DRAWINGS OF WHEN THEY WERE MINEEEEEEEEEE
Leslie the "hurts you eyes" thing is called "eye bleeding" colours
The sarcastic comments you say about every drawing make me happy
here's an idea! how about a redraw of any of your old drawings?
This was so fun to watch I really enjoy seeing how artists grew their talents and inspirations from!
You could draw your old characters in your current art style!
Sticky Bunchy phan?
I love these kinds of videos, you get to see how much the artist has improved 🖤
You draw that good when you're 13? *M Y G O D*
I love looking at my old drawings. brings back so many memories and has me thinking "girl...what the heck were you thinking while drawing this???"
Was this difficult to film? I wanna do a sketchbook tour of my own but it seems like a lot of video recording..
hmmm the original video, without any editing, was 40 minutes. so it wasnt that difficult on that part. the hardest part was the setup haha i was in a weird and uncomfortable position but thats just my fault for not having the right equipment lol
The first time I tried to record a sketchbook tour, I had my phone weirdly set up on a music stand against a window precariously... Set Up Is Important
THIS COMMENTARY IS GOLD
Girl who transforms into Dragon?
Mary Sue?
Princess?
Corrin?
this helped my self-esteem so much >~< i'm 14 and I manage to draw 'better' than your 16-year-old self, so that means I can still get to your level!!! :")
same but I'm 13
Hi Leslie your art is so awesome
I know this would took a lot of work but maaaaaaaaaybe you should redesign some of them just to make a comparison y'know? I've done that with my old characters and it was fun :P

16:29 Luca looks like a Homestuck oc XD
"toxic by a static lullaby"
**has 2009 phil flashbacks**
Bruh I feel accomplished to be 12 and draw better than some artists did when they were 15.
Vinaera. Me too xd
Wow, It's so nice to see your progression over the years! I just starting really getting into drawing and digital art, but this gives me hope that I can get better with experience!
Freaking Leslie the edgelord 10/10
It's nice to see an artist actually enjoying their old art. Almost all sketchbook tours are so negative
About that "company", there is a youtuber called Lulusketches
Snobben 97 i see u everywhere >->
+Omg i can get such long name bc i can kill me You mean you see the icon everywhere?
Omg i can get such long name bc i can kill me if it's on Leslie's channel, then it's cuz I love her with all my heart
Lydia xxx probably
Snobben 97 Na that's a fact lol :v
pls show us the rest of your sketchbooks, it's really nice to see how someone improves through years! ^^
Is it still canon that Luca loves salt-water taffy? Can we make that canon?
Also, are we really not going to talk about that page at 22:13?
