#Drawpril

[theriu]

Why do all of the creatorly months happen in the later months of the year??? Inktober, NaNoWriMo, why don't we do cool artsy challenges earlier?? What's to stop me from declaring this month "Drawpril" and starting a spring trend????

April Drawing- Day 3 | Unrealistic Colors

I did an extra page of inkwash yesterday but ended up not using it, so I figured it’d make a good fox for today’s prompt :3c

April Drawing Challenge: Day 8

Favorite Things:  Dinobot

I literally co-host a Transformers Podcast, so I think this should surprise no one, but here’s Dinobot and Dinobot II from Beast Wars.

A glorified sketch at best, which I won’t be cleaning up further, but I’m happy with how Dinobot turned out–but the credit for that goes to having the Masterpiece figure on my desk, which I used for reference.

Some quick arm studies as a precursor to Drawpril! Each week in April I’ll be posting a bunch of art I’m working on to try and beef up my social media presence and level up my art! You can read all about it over on my Twitter and follow along all throughout April on Instagram for all my updates! - - - #drawpril #art #dannyryba #digitalart #arms #studies #sketch #anatomy #photoshop #artistsoninstagram #digitalpainting https://www.instagram.com/p/BvpnGxigdMH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=21t44x1xfnbl

Presenting the Mythic Expert (M.E.) from my Mythical How To Guides!

I found an old pose in my sketchbook from an earlier attempt to draw her, so I decided to fill it out with her adventuring garb. Then I did something I’ve literally NEVER done before: designing alternate outfits! Now let’s have some fun and break these down :D

On The Job

This is her super geared-up adventuring garb; she dresses like this for official gigs or when she knows she’ll be dealing with dangerous mythics. It tends to get a bit warm, but better warm than dead! (And an extra jacket tied around her waist for the even colder regions! Or in case she needs to throw it over somebody’s head.)

I wanted to give her a mix of modern clothes and classic adventuring gear to represent the mix of classic myths/folklore and the modern-day setting. She has a few magic tools, like some health potions, a few fae artifacts, etc. but mostly normal human gear. She carries misc. useful items in her backpack and pockets or just tied onto things.

Despite dealing with dangerous mythics, she dislikes fighting, preferring diplomacy and trickery. She’s not particularly violent regardless, but it’s also illegal (except in defense of self or others from imminent peril) to slay mythics. (You can do citizen’s arrests, though.) She is handy with a short sword and her staff, however! The wizard gem probably has a stun effect on contact. And she can run pretty dang fast.

Casual Warm

Here’s an everyday summer outfit! She typically wears normal-looking sneakers and clothes comfortable for moving quickly. However, an M.E. is always prepared, so she keeps misc. handy items on her in the fanny pack, and bracelets (paracord, magic detection, slingshot elastic, iron), a hidden necklace (emergency health potion), mirrored sunglasses, etc. When you gain a reputation as a Mythic Expert (even a good one), it can lead to awkward encounters. Or inserting yourself into awkward encounters because they’re less awkward for you than for other people.

Casual Cool

Here we see the adventurer actually wearing her jacket! I decided she tries to have eye protection on her at all times, particularly mirrored lenses because gorgons and basilisks and hypnotizing mythics. Her purse is based on a real satchel I have where the strap is a belt a convention artist decorated with real glass vials holding tiny flowers! :D So basically, she always has eye protection, close-toed shoes, and a carrying bag of some kind, plus a few handy doodads hidden about her person. :D

I’d probably also need to make a more civil uniform for her to wear in situations like the Dryad Guide. But yeah, there we go! Hope you enjoyed that foray into my Mythic Expert, who is definitely based on me in style if not in actual skillset XD (I WISH I were that athletic and quick-thinking IRL.)

Teresa in something other than her usual outfit. Could suit challenge 16?

@aprildrawing‘s prompt today was books!

 as my friend said: why not continue the princess theme with Belle! 📚📖

Incorruptable

Jereldo found some shade

Completed a drawpril finally from the “Put your OCs in your clothes” prompt I had reblogged a bit ago. I was requested my clothes, and to start with my ghoul Jere here.

April Drawing- Day 5 | Hair

Whoops, accidentally turned this into a draw this again challenge!

Originally I did the drawing on the right because I figured the idea was quick and easy and fit today's theme, but after I was done I realized I've actually done this idea before

The doodle on the left was my first go at these inks back in January, 2018. It was a veeeery quick one because I just wanted to get to playing with the inks, and it's been pasted to the cover of a sketchbook for ages, so it's a little worse for wear, but I still think it's fun to look back on and see how far I've come 😊
