He/Him-AroAce-An artist and animator who currently is brain rotting about whatever he wants-working on: Cybernetic-

Brain rotting on here and Tumblr now, I will post actual art when my carpal tunnel isn’t acting up, for now here’s a bit of what I do

Like I said I’ll post more when my carpal tunnel isn’t making my wrist feel like it’s dying lol :]
Some more Shadow art because I’m nothing if consistent with my hyper fixation-

Obviously had to get a trans Shadow in as a treat for myself

More Shadow the Hedgehog traditional sketches, I will say, I’ve already changed how I draw him. So I would say this is much closer to his canon design

/Spoilers For Sonic 3

I’ve been hit so hard with the Shadow the Hedgehog Hyperfixation beam y’all have no idea-
This is only a piece of the art I’ve done traditionally-

This is how the brain rot is hitting-

Honestly those shirts describe Shadow and Silver perfectly in my opinion-

I want you all to know. I’ve gotten a new sketchbook. And will only be filling it with Sonic character art-
So I’ll show some finished pages when I finish them :]]
(Also you will get to find out who my favorite character is- it will shock you-) ((not actually-))

I think I’m going to try to learn how to make a VTuber, not to VTube (If I were I’d just do drawing no mic streams)
But because I think it would be a neat tool to learn!
Especially since I’ll be on medical leave for the next few weeks

Normalize posting the messy sketches!
Normalize sharing your least favorite pieces!
Normalize creating art for vengeance by drawing your enemies in compromising positions with various farm equipment!
Normalize group critiques!

This was a piece I did for a business card assignment, I’d love to do a different version of this with the same vibe but a more interesting composition!

These are my oc’s D.A. and Jesse!!

The grip that the new Dragon Age game has on me is FOUL-

LIKE WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERES TRANSGENDER OPTIONS- AND MOST OF IT RELATES TO SPECIFICALLY ME-

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERES BOTH AN OLD MAN AND I CAN FIX HIM MAN- WHAT DO YOU MEAN I WANT TO ROMANCE EVERY MAN-

Anyways this is all I will talk about-

Reposting cause I realized the lighting was horrid with the first one-

Been testing different cell shading ways! Obligatory Shadow drawing-

Shadow the hedgehog is probably my favorite character for the sole reason, he’s just, so dry at all times. And I feel that within my autistic bones.

Like yes, I too also tell people how I feel in the most monotone voice, sarcasm is my very best friend.

If you're a creator who:

-Takes long break periods
-Creates very slowly
-Has another full time job or engagement
-Struggles with productivity
-Is inconsistent

I'm sorry to tell you...

YOU'RE STILL A VALID CREATOR BECAUSE CREATING IS TIED TO PASSION, NOT PRODUCTIVITY 💜

Do you know how freeing it is, to recognize that your sketchbook does not have to be perfect? That you can indeed draw what you want in it without shame?

I’ve drawn so much Shadow the Hedgehog art in this sketchbook.

Sometimes interacting with my self insert. I feel like kid me is so happy rn

Sorry y'all

But I'm that one artist who will show a WIP and possibly NEVER finish it as I leave it on the pile of "unfinished artworks that I'll never touch unless I feel like it but that's unlikely as I'm lazy and have other plans that interfere with my current plans and that's called sleeping"

It is awful that at the time I’m healing my trauma regarding sketchbooks that my carpal tunnel decided to make me unable to draw

FOR ONCE I WANT TO DRAW SO BADLY AND I CANT BECAUSE MY ARM IS BURNING-

This might be useful for creatives.

I usually have an additional process I call "Reduction".

Essentially, it's leaving your final work to sit for a week before looking at it again — and then simplifying and reducing details that you might have become desensitized from staring at it too long.

Sketching bodies is so incredibly hard….. I feel like art is one of those things where you have to actively practice or else you forget everything so easily 😭😭😭
