AAAA YOUR ART IS AN INSPIRATION FR 🥹🩵🙏

Do you happen to have any tips on drawing Astarion? You draw his eyes and lips beautifully but are also so good at capturing the shapes and contours of his jaw and cheekbones!!!! I’m enraptured ;O;

Thank you so much!

Well, the key to drawing Astarion (and any character, really) is to pay attention to the facial features that make the character unique - and their proportions in relation to each other. It's all well and good to take nose/mouth/eye shapes by themselves, but how they fit together is an important part of making a character recognizable - AND an often overlooked step of drawing faces! It's the sort of thing you develop an eye for with enough practice.

Note the distance between features, parallel lines, what parts sink in and what sticks out. After that, it is up to you to stylize everything however you please. Here's a few quick Astarions as a bonus to hopefully further illustrate what I mean

Pride month is the perfect time to draw cute couple art and I almost missed out because of work! Happy pride to my fellow LGBTQ+ 😌 I’ll probably draw lots of cute soppy art this week lol

Peace and love in these scary times, (low key been so stressed about the state of the world rn) I wish you all safety and respect <3

Finally feeling like the painting practice is paying off a little 😁 colour used to be my least favourite part but I’m actually quite enjoying it now!

A helpful little guide

Yet another painting experiment which honestly I feel went a lot better! :) still kinda feeling like things come out a but muddy. honestly if I don’t feel immediate improvement on something I find it hard not to just move on 😂 trying to stick with it! I definitely feel I’ll go back to more stylised stuff soon but I need to get better at values and rendering. You gotta understand the rules to break them and all that jazz. so try and try again!

Playing around with a more painty style but really not sure how i feel about it lol

Hi everyone thank you so much for all the support since I took a break! I had a bit of a work build up and getting settled on meds was a trail so I just got a bit overwhelmed with social media. Cleared my backlog and I'm feeling ready to tackle the world! 😊 I've been working on so some really fun commissions that I can't wait to share and honestly this community has been so lovely to me with lots of supportive reblogs/comments/DMs that genuinely brighten my day as such a small creator, especially from some of the friends I've made on here 🥰

Hello, I have been on the search to get a commission art piece of my Tav/Astarion and found you on the fb group bg3 Astarion Stans. I love your work I was wondering how much you charge for a piece? Thanks so much l!

Hi thank you so much for reaching out! I'm sorry for my slow reply I had a work pile up to get through ☺️ I'll pop you my commission sheet and feel free to send me any ideas you have, my prices are pretty variable based on availability

Riven was born in Mezobaramzen and lived with his mother and twin sister untill he was 15, Then he was given away to a cult of wizards and sorcerers for some secret ritual

Tav Question

Where was your Tav raised? (You can be as specific as the neighborhood in a canon lore city or as unspecified as “a farm”)

[moetartart]

Sending this as an ask so I don't end up spamming your entire blog—you draw the most adorable characters!!

Oh my god thank you so much I really appreciate that ☺️☺️ I looked at your work and it's absolutely beautiful

Been doing a lot more kinda grungey sketchy stuff lately and I can't decide if I like it or not

[moetartart]

Someone told me to do it so I did, not that I needed an excuse to draw my favourite vampire 🦇 still chronically obsessed lol

Plus I've just started ADHD meds and they definitely work, but I can't seem to pick what I focus on and so far it's been my comfort game 😅

Probably partly because I'm super anxious about them and run back to my silly little game any time I get stressed 🥹

TLDR, if anyone has advise on dealing with the meds crash please help because omg it's bad and I'm a wimp 😭😭 And sorry to anyone if my replies have been sporadic, things are a tad up and down <3

More Riven art because I'm addicted
