placeholder icon #art
up close and low quality screenshot of a youtube icon. the icon is of a chibi of my persona wrapped in a pink, heart-patterned blanket. the chibi is small and doesn’t take up the whole space of the icon.

I can tell I will regret having this idea.

screen shot of a digital illustration work in progress. it is a very rough sketch of my chibi persona sleeping by a round window. the large window and sleeping area is carved out of the wall, along with many shelves surrounding the window. the shelves hold various objects such as sketchbooks, houseplants, and owl plushies. another screenshot of the same work in progress but this time a few of the color layers have been put down. there is no lineart and each color is on its own separate layer, to better add texture for the finished paper doll look.

#Art
two waving chibis, one of my current persona design wearing a pink sweater dress and the other chibi is a future persona design in a brown knitted dress. my new persona design is also wearing fake glasses and a mustache. my current design is saying “Hello again my-“ but is then cut off by my newer design saying “Hello again m-…strangers.”

even though I naturally wanna use lots of different highly saturated colors, sticking with this palette is also fun~

i thank past me again for saving the layers separately. time to work on a new endcard from scratch #WIP
screenshot of a digital paper doll of my persona sitting in the corner and drawing on her tablet. in the background is the same paper doll but in a pink dress and lots of bright colors, while the new paper doll is dressed in browns and mauves. the layers window in the art program is open to show the layers used for the piece.

lmaoo i posted this on youtube and it didn’t reach a single person in 7 hours so I think I have no choice but to recolor and re-record this pic to leave out the fun parts 💀
youtube was so much simpler back in the day

(｡・//ε//・｡)ゞ
screenshot of the same post that is being quote reposted but on youtube. screenshot reads it was posted 7 hours ago and there has been no interactions on the post.

I’m desperately trying to make a decent full-body ref of my OCs for commissions but it’s killing me.
So here’s the hair/face ref that I finished ages ago lmao

(｡・//ε//・｡)ゞ
#art ✎ #oc
Digital bust portrait of my character Mace when he was 17-19 years old. On the left side of the reference image, there are three cropped photos of hairstyles I used as reference. Notes scattered around the reference sheet reads: -I’m scared of foreheads so Mace’s fringe still covers most of his. -Hair longer on top and parted down the middle -Pierced ears on 18th birthday (Robin recommend it) -Mace also started wearing eyeliner around the same time but usually for filming/performances. (Robin again) -(he’s at least 18 in this ref)

screenshot of a paperdoll-style digital chibi on an open file in clip studio paint. the screenshot shows the layers window, which displays 5 color-coded folders, along with a handful of separate layers. The folders are labeled for certain parts of the chibi such as face, hair, clothes, etc.

digital sketch of my character atlas scratching the back of his neck, nervously asking “S-so what’s your name anyways? …I gave you mine hours ago…” it is the same digital sketch as the quote reposted sketch, although his hair is shorter and a bit brighter in this version.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAD A WHOLE MONTH TO REALIZE I ACCIDENTALLY DREW HIM IN HIS TIMESKIP DESIGN AND NOW THE LAYERS ARE MERGED???
Imma cry I swear well here he is in his future design ugh. Imma trace him lol
#art ✎ #oc
my original character, Atlas, nervously scratching the back of his neck. There are dark circles under his visible eye, and he is covered in small scratches and leaves/twigs. Atlas asks nervously, “S-so…what’s your name anyways? …I gave you mine hours ago…” Text beside his reads: (Atlas) has been awake for the past 52 hours alone in the woods and is trying not to lose it. There is also a small doodle of him in the corner as he holds some kind of tracking device. He has a blank look on his face.

rough sketch of my character Luca pulling his tie loose. He is grinning as his nose is bleeding. Screenshot of a Tumblr post with the last two times I redrew the same picture of Luca, one from 2019 and one from 2015. Text in post reads: Easy. Hit. 2019 vs. 2015(?). I haven’t improved much due to lack of practice but I see a little something and that’s still good.

Not only did I fuck myself over by making one of my original characters a musician, but of course he had to become one of my favorite characters. God I hate drawing him and his guitars. I love him so much.

digital work in progress of my original character, Mace. there are two chibis on him, one is peacefully playing an acoustic guitar and the other is dressed up and playing an electric guitar.

rough digital sketch of my character, Atlas, who is smiling but visibly shaking. his hair is messy and there are twigs and leaves sticking out of it. he also has dark circles under his eyes and he is covered in scratches. Atlas stutters, “S-so…do you have a name??” He then mumbles”…I gave you mine hours ago…” Text in the image reads: (Atlas) has been awake for the past 52 hours alone in the woods and is trying not to lose it.
