it's aerith!
#aerith gainsborough#ff7#fanart#was talkin with my buddy about how i love these kinds of designs#an old game with tiny little polygon chars required distinct/simplifiable chardesigns that were easy to read#cropped jacket + dress + long fancy ponytail. iconic and all you need!!!#also quickly remembered why i gave up during my past 1-2 attempts at drawing her#two sets of hair framing her face + the jacket collar situation creates the epicenter of all tangents ever found in the universe.......

Been doodling Rhiannon a lot lately hehe
#blind man's bluff#ladyredms#bmb spoilers#l4d2#i love lena and her 4d chess brain!!! she's just trying her best :')#and idk why but i looooved drawing the background it looks like a bus seat from the 90s LMAOO#rhee calling nick her bestie was so iconic i love their friendship#recently thought about all the main (potential) couples first meetings and omg#1. almost vehicular manslaughter 2. attempted armed robbery and 3. willful destruction of property ??????? amazing#literally never would've guessed in a million years that the gas station robber would fall in love with coach#also i'm a total stupid romantic so i had to draw coach giving rhee his jacket#here's a fun lil easter egg: if you zoom into rhee's brunette roots i always include a small hidden heart there <3

I'm so torn between my jeff design having eyelids or not, i cant choose man </3
#i like the hcs where he's just blinded in like one eye cause he attempted to get rid of his eyelids for nonspecified reasons#but eyelidless jeff is very iconic but maaaaaaaaaaaannnn#in my au/version of him he attempted cutting his eyelids off cause long story short he was sick of his eyes looking so puffy (and weak)#everytime he cried so on impulse he thought it'd be a good idea but ended up blinding himself and pussied out on doing the same to his othe#eye#man this word limit skdkfksfd#BUT YEAH DESPITE THAT IDK i might just draw whatever feels nicest at the time#miausthought

quick & messy biblically accurate johanna and finnick sketch just to nail down exactly how i imagined them
#referenced from the iconic screenshot from catching fire of course#the hunger games#catching fire#johanna mason#finnick odair#your honor they are besties.#do not look at the anatomy it is wack this was mostly an attempt at their faces. my wife (finnick) 🥰 and my husband (johanna) 🫶#i loooove the red fringe that johanna has in the movies so i kept it#me remember which side of his face i’m supposed to put finnick’s beauty marks and piercings challenge (impossible)#this one i think is consistent with my original sketch of him but i think it’s flipped on the victory tour poster OOPS#the reason i gave him 2 piercings on one ear is because#historically the um. ‘professions’. that were associated with pierced ears were sailors (obviously) and slaves 🙃#thg reread#wherefore art thou#the other day i spent hours trying to draw katniss and i hated every sketch#which is BIZARRE because i can picture her so clearly in my mind#i think i’m having a hard time making her look young and weathered at the same time#one of these days i will figure it out and then i will finally be able to post my girl

hell yeah pride pfp thats--um. sweating nervously. whats that in the background
#ask#catboygirljoker#boe#boe tai marrow#my art#my characters#huh? wuh? who goes there#no but seriously. its just the D-Sides logo overlaid where it usually is on my normal icon#it felt kind of empty/weird without it so that's why i have it on the flags#might be a little strange but i liked how it looked#attempted to incorporate the flag into the logo itself but couldn't for the life of me get it to look comprehensible#and like i couldn't use the ace flag as a pure background because it blends too much with boes colours#so i had to do a custom design with the flags to get a nice shape that works well behind boe#honestly took me all day to figure out#i think my previous attempts did look cool. but again. kinda incomprehensible in icon form. due to the amount of small shapes in the logo#or.... the d-sides cover. not logo. anyway#also wow its been a while since ive actually drawn boe. so he looks a little messy. or. messier than usual when i draw him#granted i think he turned out pretty well despite how long its been#especially had to touch up some final adjustments. with the eye shapes and the irises#but anyway!!! thank you for tha ask :)#had a lot of fun with this joke

No way they had to actually nerf aventurines story boss fight 😭😭
#SPACE CAPITALIST FOUL LEGACY FACES THE FATE OF THE ORIGINAL 😭😭#listen im the first one to call out how the omgggggg its hsr childe O___o shit with aven is just. dumb (& if anything hes hsr komaeda lmao)#but this is just so fucking funny 💀💀 poetic irony#(yap alert) n yes yes sure ik they do share some memeworthy similarities in the narrative roles they serve and some surface level aspects#such as. to stay on topic. the powered up form featured in a now-nerfed story fight threatens big population in attempt to draw out someone#thing. but as characters they rly couldnt be further apart. motivations and skillsets and worldviews and personality its . nothing lol.#like. they rhyme at times but thats not the same as rly being alike much at all and im tired of seeing it#but anuway yeah its. its so funny the boss fights for both got the fateful nerf i cannot believe this 💀💀#i kind of get why tho like. aventurine had hands. i did double sustain jic and was fine bc fx blocked the CC enough but ya#hsr#hsr spoilers#2.1 spoilers#rambles#name a more iconic duo than me and not fucking keeping it curt and on topic in the tags

You ever finish a drawing that you really like and then you spend the next three days randomly looking at it for minutes at a time like that could make it possible for you to absorb its alluring and magnetic essence with your eyes
#this is me with my icon rn. also this is silly but yeah it really feels like that#i experienced the same thing but even more intensely back in february with the short comic i made then#and then also with some of the paintings i made during my painting course days#admiring the colors and lighting on this mundane green bottle. why not#honestly this might be the first time in my life when i'm making things and i sometimes end up actually liking them fully#no little extra gripes with it that could ruin it. i just like the thing as it is. love it even. it's exactly as it should be#this feeling is one of the top things that make drawing and overall at least attempting to make art worth it#i also wonder if anyone else experiences this thing where the image of a certain character stays in your sort of visual imagination sphere#like the thing becomes associated with everything that happens at that time. the music i listen to etc#it almost feels like i sort of AM this thing. like. spiritually#ok this is hard to explain without sounding kind of odd LMAO#it's just that i've never seen anyone express this exact sentiment. with seeing the character in your minds eye sorta#i mean hmmmm. ofc fursonas and all different types of sonas and such exist. re: the identification thing#i actually find the concept of an 'avatar' as something that represents you (in a digital setting mostly) really intriguing#it was actually one of the things i seriously considered as the subject of my bachelor's thesis#but yeah ok i'm just saying this so that you all know that i AM that little purple kitty holding a heart. btw#ok i'm going to go eat dinner now. don't mind me and my strange long-winded monologues#goosepost

too many posts in the astarion tag like, "if you like astarion, it's only bc you liked [some dude character i don't give 2 shits about] first 😏"
#i do not care about loki i do not care about solas i do not care about kylo ren#lisssssten if i'm gonna be completely honest: if i had to draw parallels between my faves i would put astarion closest to arid#AKA the ''robot'' in my tumblr icon#which sounds nuts at first bc they're so diametrically opposed aesthetically#HOWEVER both of them fill the same niche of:#''being created to be tortured‚ consumed‚ and ultimately sacrificed in their creator's quest for power and control''#''who finds themself suddenly free of the three rules set by their master to which they were formerly bound''#''and subsequently threatens to recreate all of their creator's worst excesses in their desperate attempts to be free of his abuse''#LIKE. maybe i'm insane. but they sit on the same shelf in my head.#astarion

#I've been wanting to b&wing this pic for months and today felt right 🥹#need to cup his face in my palm need to brush my thumb over his cheek need to cradle his hair#This shot would be breathtaking drawn with charcoal 🖤 which is something I will do soon#For now here's a silly attempt to 'draw' this pic with charcoal through the art of editing 🥲#He's a work of art#His hands are beautiful#Would like to hold them :/#My edit#I love how my edit style changed since I started to study the drawings techniques in a more academic way#Before it felt a lot like taking photos of him but now it feels a lot like drawing and painting him as well#Also need v strongly to follow the curve profile of his pretty nose with my fingertip in that iconic a star is born way ��🥹🥹🥹🥹#Sigh#Arthur Fleck

Wedy!!
#everything about this was painful to draw#and was also a reminder that i should actually learn anatomy and perspective and how lighting works#and everything an artist should actually know#but i don’t think it’s so bad#sorry for all my negative rambles in the tags of my art posts#i have a tendency to criticise my work without actually doing anything about it#but i do attempt to be positive about it occasionally#anyways i love wedy so much dude she was so iconic#death note#death note fanart#wedy#death note wedy#wedy death note#merrie kenwood#chara’s art

((I'm still unhappy with how I draw him.. I think it's the bangs...
#my art#second time drawing him#WAY better than my first attempt#but still something seems off#It would probably really help if I actually have refs of him on screen#instead of casually glancing at a 100x100 pixelated icon LOL

#doing some soul search at 12am trying to determine if i should change my icon and what i would change it to#like ive grown attached to this one but this is an oc for the ya story and like im shelving that project#like im breaking from querying it (dicks out) for now at least. it's time to retire him.......#but to Who.#i could always default to fe awakening. or i could do kaeya genshin but also i refuse to do genshin#i could pick an oc from my newest story and attempt to draw her/do a pic crew or some shit like this icon.............#decisions...................#miscellaneous#or i could do something funny like l death note considering i had a fucking dream about him last night#yeah idk either
