#but the funny part is easiest to doodle

[gammaraydeath]

getting ideas out of my system with low effort doodles let's go

[schpeenor]

i NEEDED to make a doodle of spinarakidabi with some stupid ass post final war designs but they’re wearing wedding dresses and suits. of course i decided to put spinner in a suit, and shigaraki and dabi in wedding dresses. it was supposed to be utterly satire but the more work i put into this the less unserious it seemed. IM PROBABLY MISSING SOME SCARS (maybe on shigaraki and/or spinner but whatever)

ANYWAAAY, SPINNER’S SUIT IS TATTERED CAUSE HE RANDOMLY BODY BULKED. ITS JUST FUNNY!! THEY’RE A DYSFUNCTIONAL ASS THROUPLE!!!!

It was easiest to come up with a design and be delusional with dabi cause he for the most part lived, not so much for shigaraki. probably had something to do with them defeating afo’s quirk factor or whatever of afo that just popped up near the end - let’s say midoriya says something that makes tomura lock in, or he just thinks about spinner, some stupid cliche stuff like that, and that’s why he doesn’t die.

hiya!! for the ask thing can I ask for Food and Name for Jocia and Yuu Shi? tysm!!!

(also baby goats baby goats baby goats-)

Name: What does your twst OC's name mean? Why does Rook/Floyd call them [insert nickname]?

OH i have- lots of lil lore tidbits for this

Jocia, according to my research waaaay back when I finally looked into her name (I deadass thought I just made it up at first), is typically associated with "joy!" Though Im sure that was obvious from the almost constant glare on her face /sar. It is also a different form of the name Jocelyn, a German name. I always pronounced it Jo-sha til I learned it was supposed to be- well, exactly as its spelled, Jo-see-ah.

Floyd calls her Barracuda! Initially I was going to have that be what he called Yuu, but the "catfish" pun was too good for me to pass on. So- what else could I do but hand over the title to Jo? Plus I think it fits her better :P Primarily due to how the barracuda is more known for how they hunt and fight.

They are known to be ferocious, attacking quickly and using ambush techniques (similar to a certain pair of tweels). They are also known to just straight up take fish from other species, even human divers- besides that, they don't really attack humans unprovoked. Barracudas also compete with moray eels for food/prey.

I feel like this relates back to how Jocia "handles" her anger- or- howshetakesitout on people around her who wrong her/those she cares about. She is ruthless and fearsome at times, but for the most part she prefers to just... chill. She doesn't purposefully go seeking out trouble when she's in the right place mentally.

Rook calls her "Reine des épices" (pls excuse any mistakes, blame the translator), which translates to "Queen of Spice!" This is honestly more of a personal reference. Me and my partner always used to joke that Jocia was kinda like a pepper- and would often use 🌶️ when joking about her. It's mostly due to her fiery, hot-tempered nature.

Yuu- is- well, yuu. I didnt come up with that, i just snatched it JFNDJDJ. HOWEVER. "Shi" can have many different meanings! I tried my best to go for something vague. I like the thought of having something that leaves you guessing what applies and what doesnt. However! It can actually also mean "you." Yuushi as a whole can translate to "hero!" (Another ironic take, I know)

Floyd calls her catfish bc. It's funny. I think it's funny and I'd bet $20 that he'd think it's funny. So it's catfish KFNDJDK

Besides the obvious- (pretending to be someone she isnt), catfish can live in almost any aquatic climate, making them rather adaptable. They have a large range of size and behavior, and are most well known for their stinging "whiskers." (Glances at shi's taser) They ALSO compete with eels for prey- as long as they arent a small enough species, then theyd become the prey.

Rook calls her "Reine du Rock", which means "Queen of Rock"- this one is just simple. She loves rock music. She plays it all the time, and it is what she most enjoys performing. Again i am not a good translator trust me i tried to learn another languagemybrainjustcant

Another fact, the twin's parents switched them around at birth on accident, and forgot who they named what initially. It's entirely possible that Yuu was supposed to be named Jocia, but they don't know :P they fight over who is older bc of this too.

Food: What is your twst OC's favorite and least favorite food? Why (optional)? Is there anyone they can share their favorite food? Is there anyone they can count on to take over the food they dislike?

I went into this a lil bit with Yuu in the past during different ask games! Here and here. And a lil bit for Jo here. (Their fav and why<)

Yuu Shi is partial to suggesting treats to Trey- whether he actually makes Bungeoppang or just uses Doodle Suit, it is currently her easiest means of getting it when she only had it a few times prior. So, sure, she'll share... sometimes.

Jocia- given she is partial to a barbequed dish, she could share it with Leona given his love for meat... but WOULD she? No.

Yuu Shi would never subject anyone else to caffeine even if they really enjoyed it, unless that someone is the sink drain.

As for Jocia... really, she didnt have too much against olives. They were bad, yeah, but not horrible. She hated the way they made her tongue itch, though... and then she figured out that they weren't supposed to do that. She's allergic. Yuu Shi used to take them for her, but there isn't really anyone who enthusiastically WANTS them either.

Doodles featuring @twistedtummies2 ft. Usagi. Or as I like to call it… late night doodles to distract myself from how I’m being boiled alive in my apartment/hj (The boiler’s being garbage)

1. Not much to say other than it’s just based on a meme 😂 And I love Smitty’s confused face here

2 & 3

It’s super funny drawing Elias as dog images 😂 Especially with the second which I felt goes perfectly with that part in Chapter two of his introduction story. There is a third one that is still a w.i.p. But I might finish it. Btw…. At this point I’m basically gonna be known as the “Elias artist” aren’t I? 😂/lh

4. I was originally gonna do all of your Twisted ocs… but I need to at least try to sleep it’s like 3 AM 😭. Plus to me it’d be poetic for me since these four were the characters that were the most developed and I grew the most familiar with when I first discovered your page. With this I added how I drew their eyes… since I’m trying to practice with eye style variety. Technical details:

Nakoda: I’ve actually doodled him once in one of my sketchbooks before. And he was actually fairly easy to draw, I’ve had ocs that had similar hair to him before. And… I have plenty of ocs who are just as flirtatious as he is and have made the exact look I drew him with 😂

Billy: Other than Elias… he was the easiest to draw and figure out how he’d work in my style. I was at first worried about his hair since it was my first time drawing his kind of hairstyle and I’m not that used to drawing short hair. But it actually worked out. It also helped that he’s similar to one of my own giant ocs in terms of personality. Fun fact, to the point where I almost thought he had freckles… which is a trait on my oc… but he doesn’t so… 👌

Elias: Is it obvious who my favorite is 😭

Reno: ……I’m just gonna say it. His hair SUCKED to draw 😭😂 I don’t know if it’s because I’m tired… the heat was getting to me.. or what… but his hair was not working out. Like with Billy I’ve at least drawn hair similar to his in the past… with Reno it was like the first time I’ve ever drawn that hairstyle in general. Even now I’m still not that happy with it… even in the first doodle. Like bruh I just 🥲I know that’s probably just me being over critical of myself since this does count as fanart of someone’s ocs, not just that, but someone who I admire the work of, believe me my years of participating in Art Fight has familiarized me with that feeling but just….. don’t be an artist guys 😭/j. Maybe when I do the others I’ll redo him.

5. ….Usagi going through how I feel right now

Don’t know who’s next to her… could be any of the pred lads… Insert “Twisted Wonderland isn’t an Otome Game” joke here. Though I do think this could be an interesting Vore concept… being so hot and just done that even the idea of being in a warm stomach is just… “bruh can you not?” 😂. Btw… this is how Usagi acts when their in one of her moods… a lot more snappy, sarcastic, and blunt with their wording…. I wish your bois good luck with that. Also fact about Usagi is that they literally have trouble finding pjs their size since she’s a frail little thing.

Also fair warning to all the Vore enthusiasts.. it’s not necessarily a big kink for me, hell it’s why safe Vore is in the neutral section of my pinned post so in turn….. I don’t take it seriously. I very much make a lot more jokes and memes involving it.

6. To end things off… this

Death stare Usagi. Is not something to be messed with. They may be small… but they will bite and is legitimately terrifying sometimes.

Would like to know reactions to not even just Usagi, the Prefect in general making this face 😂

Anyways that’s all from me for tonight…. Or morning technically lol

Moon signing off… wish me luck in this heat. Art is hard

[leyyvi]

your "low-effort doodles" (still gd GORGEOUS btw thank you for the food) side blog post inspired me to dump today's existing in your inbox

Woke up this morning super jazzed to art, but was like "let me organize my assets (kinda like mods essentially - not sure if procreate has a similar thing?) and workspace layout in clip studio first."

FCKING 11 HOURS LATER everything is organized but I'm too tired to draw and it is time for bed lmao 🙃🙃🙃

anyways thanks for listening. art is hard. ily and good night 😶‍🌫️

WAAA THANK YOU fgjkhfjkhdgfdh

omg I could spend all day trying to organize my clip studio assets (i actually use csp primarily now bc the assets have been SO helpful) so i'm super amazed that you're able to spend time organizing them jkfdghdkjfgh it's funny bc i'm so guilty of spending more time finding the "perfect reference" rather than actually drawing sometimes HAHA

but YEAH ART IS HARD...sometimes i feel like drawing is the easiest part and the hardest is ...literally everything that goes behind it :'D WE GOT THIS THO HEHE ILUUUUUUUU i hope you're able to draw soon!!! <3

[diantimony]

9, 10, 12, 15, 25, 26, 30

What are your file name conventions Ah jeez these can either be "The-Hanged-Man-DianeRamic-Tarot-mockup2.psd" with 6-12 metatags for easy searching later, or "himb2.png" with no in-between. I try to give "serious" art descriptive names, and silly art can be anything.

Favorite piece of clothing to draw Ponchos!!! you can see that a lot when I doodle aliens wearing clothes, I just think they're really versatile for a lot of different bodyplans, and can range from being simple to complex depending on what you want to draw. Me drawing so many human ocs with ponchos in middle school absolutely slowed me down in learning how to draw the human form though, haha. Turtlenecks and boots were something I'd pair them with pretty often, so you can call those two a close second and third. God pretty much all my ocs wear boots

Easiest part of body to draw If hair/feathers count it would be that! I like floof. But if it doesn't, wings and tails feel really easy to me, they're so useful as elements to make a cool composition with. If I draw a humanoid without wings it feels like something's missing and there's not enough going on, haha. If we're talking only human body parts, maybe the brow? Might be a weirdly specific one but those are the first thing I go for when I'm just doodling.

Where do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth) Oh at home, for sure, followed much further away by in book shop cafes. Very rarely outdoors or in bustle. Most often it's on my bed, sitting against one of those big back support pillows with my sketchbook , or crouching on the floor over a watercolor taped to a nice flat board. I have tried sitting at desks and don't really like it for freehand drawing.

Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by This one is really interesting because it got brough up at a convention this weekend! My vector work has been compared to Charlie Harper's work several times, and the first time I'd heard of him was well into doing 100+ of my vector critter drawings. I'm glad the question of if he inspired me came up, because his art is really cool, AND full of birds. And it didn't feel like a flippant or derogatory comparison either, anytime he's been mentioned. I have had plenty of weird ones where there might be one coincidental minor similar trait between a work I did and an existing work, but I think every artist gets those.

What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended 2 for this one 1: I once made a genderbend of one of my game show host characters where I zapped him with the twitter ecchi artist beam, and instead of being horrified people liked it because I wasn't strong enough to draw the full effects of the beam. 2: As a joke I drew something for one of those "ergonomic" mousepads people make with anime girls badonkers on them, but with one of my very buff scary monster guy characters (Cerule). I don't know what I was expecting but the enthusiasm was funny I'm not linking either of these here >:)

What piece of yours do you think is underrated This one! It's all digital brushes and a paper texture, but I'm super proud of how close i got it to look like a real crumpled paper with marker bleeding through from the other side. But it looking so much like that might have caused people to overlook it, haha.

BAIFERN PIMCHANOK & SHE & HER/CIS WOMAN ⸻ i saw AMPHAI “PHAI” SAENGKAEW coming through the trees. the THIRTY-ONE year old was fleeing from NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK when they came across novac, and have sought salvation within the motel of purgatory. PHAI has been in town for ONE YEAR and has been assigned as a SERVER to keep society running smoothly. no matter what, they will find something to fight for. ⸻ MOONIE, SHE/HER, 22, EST, N/A.

STATISTICS

name: amphai saengkaew nicknames: phai age: thirty-one dob: october 29th, 1991 hometown: new york city, new york, usa residence: novac, new mexico occupation: cybersecurity specialist (former), server height: 5'4" hair color: brown tattoos: a sunflower doodle on the inside of her left wrist, a dolphin on her right shoulder blade mbti: enfp

HISTORY

phai has never been the type of woman to do what's expected of her, a trait that brought mostly chagrin and disappointment to her parents.

born on the upper east side to new money social climbers in the pharmaceuticals industry her parents desperately wanted to find their ranks among the old money elite of new york who had no desire to accept them.

phai, their eldest child was no help either. whether it was spilling wine all over a white tablecloth or speaking her opinion far to freely to someone who didn't value it she was a constant slew of mistakes in her family's mission to climb the ranks of society.

her only redeeming quality in her family's opinion was her mind. she was especially clever and her grades consistently were the best in her pampered private school crowd

she buzzed along behind those pampered kids like a favored pet. never entirely ostracized but never truly respected either. a funny thing to keep around, a running joke that they let tag along just for the hilarity of it.

in her later years after finding some better friends she developed a penchant for lavish partying. desperate to feel accepted and normal for even a moment.

phai enjoyed spoiling her friends, taking expensive vacations, desperate to endear them to her before they could grow tired of her and leave

her foray in cybersecurity came from a terminally online kid growing up in the beginning of the computer age

computer science just seemed like the easiest subject to major in and she happened to be especially good at it

eventually she made her own money doing cybersecurity for shady paramilitary companies and trying not the thing about the moral implications of her work

after the apocalypse she was rocketed right back to uselessness when terrorist cyberattacks became the very bottom rung of concern for americans

vacationing with her friends in vegas and stranded from her family phai had no way to get back to them despite her attempts. she supposed they didn't really care if she made it back one way or the other. after all she'd never been the kid they were proud of.

now endlessly dedicated to her friends, her chosen family she's felt immeasurable loss since the apocalypse started. finding novac has offered her some measure of peace but still left her feeling hollow in the wake of the end of the world.

PERSONALITY

a cringe, girlfailure, and at least three other fake twitter buzzwords related-phai is equal parts cynical and joyful. taking a bright approach to the little things in life but jaded by the troubles she's had. though she yearns for genuine connection but has an awful tendency to say the the wrong thing, at the wrong time, all the time. she can't seem to keep a lid on her honesty even when it's better to lie. she's always been contrarian to people's expectations of her but equally concerned about them. she's never been able to shut her brain off for even a second, a constant stream of thoughts and energy. her own feelings seem to betray her thoughts often. all she's every truly wanted in life is to feel valuable, to the world, to someone, to anything.

Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job #18: “Innernette” | January 14, 2008 - 12:15AM | S02E08

Now you’re in for a treat. And, that treat is, Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job. Lotta fun skits and bits and I’m gonna watch them all twice and laugh at all the parts where they are funny.

This one has a cold-as-hell opening of Jeff Goldblum advertising his new venture Jeff GoldBluMan Group. It’s literally just Jeff Goldblum being blue like those Group guys. “It’s a sizzler, please watch.” I often say that the show rarely uses pop culture references, but this very much qualifies as one of those “rare times”. This bit comes back later in the show in the form of a music video where the Jeff GoldBluMan just whistles, and then gets dollar signs in his eyes. I don’t remember finding this bit particularly funny the first time I saw it, but I sure howled this time around. It is just pure stupidity, the type I really admire. 

A very strong and memorable wraparound features Tim & Eric selling “The Internette”, which is a version of the internet that’s contained on a mini CD-Rom. It features 5 virtual friends who can chat with you, and 103 songs, and various ways you can simulate being connected to a large network even though you are not. This is maybe one of their easiest-to-grasp sketches and it’s only a touch deranged. They have a thoughtfully tacky look. I feel like as the show went on, the wraparounds would become a much more mixed bag, and more inspired ones become fewer and further between. This is a GREAT one, though. I feel like this is a good “for beginners” sketch for a would-be Tim & Eric fan. 

On Uncle Muscles we are treated to a Casey Tatum (and his brother) song for their mommy. The song and accompanying video (made up of home video footage of a younger Casey and His Brother being abused) are a very tragic depiction of one mean mamma! This bitch is a handful, and you’ll just love seeing her neglect her sons. It’s so sad that singer guy hurls. Sick! 

David Cross is BACK! I forgot this sketch exists. It’s a fake ad for Pussy Doodles, a product that lets your cat paint by mistake. I think this sketch is sorta weak; I think they knew it wasn’t the strongest idea on paper but figured David could make some gold out of it anyway. He does an okay job. I think he’s being a little self-consciously “more Tim and Ericy” in this. I do like when he wails in despair because his cat escapes it’s harness and runs away. That single joke is maybe the perfect marriage of his and Tim & Eric’s sensibilities. A reprise of the sketch features faux behind-the-scenes footage of Bob Odenkirk as the director of the commercial, yelling at him. The best part of this is when the cat in the sketch scratches David at the end, and you can hear David break character a little bit. It’s always nice when these two daddys get back to mackin’ with each other, you gotta admit, and agree.

There’s also a living with Dr. Steve Brule about living on your lonesome. Funny area for a sketch, and Brule is usually at least a little amusing. This one seems a little too tossed off and I think there’s anything truly exceptional in this one. Brule’s advice is very general, like saying about how you should meal prep and go to bed early. There’s a surprise third one that I won’t spoil! It’s about making your own puzzles. 

There’s also a fun dance party featuring some of Tim & Eric’s wack pack. We also see Casey Tatum’s mom from before. “All I want to do is dance and fuck!”. GREAT LINE. I thought maybe it was quoting Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me, but searching it in quotes pulls up so much Tim & Eric stuff. It could be in the spirit of that one scene.That one scene I thought it was quoting.

12 and 27 for the ask game?

12: Easiest part of body to draw

Hummm.. I'd say the easiest part of any drawing is always the one I was most excited for, the thing that sparked the idea for the piece. If that makes sens?! I don't know if I'd consider any specific bodypart easier.. They all kinda come together as a whole. I also stylize fairly heavily, so my process of drawing bodies is rarely ever the same... (As embarrassing as this sounds: one thing that is always easy for me to draw is boobs LOL >_>)

27. Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with

I don't usually start with warming up, cus I just forget/i'm too excited to get right to an idea. But if I find that everything is turning out stiff and wrong, that reminds me that I should probably loosen up with some doodles hehe. So then I usually scribble OCs, just standing around, or making funny reaction-faces (sometimes those scribbles also turn into bigger pieces, so that's a win-win!!)

[doomednarrative]

12 10 13 20 for ask game ?

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw

Love drawing fingerless gloves tbh, they help a lot with me separating hands out funny enough

12. Easiest part of body to draw

Eyes usually, I was that kid who spent time in class doodling them so I still like doing them

13. A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing

Tatsuki Fujimoto (creator of Chainsaw Man.) The guys a great artist with a very distinctive style among modern mangaka's, but because his work touches upon some elements I know would be a little too heavy for me to handle, I haven't gotten into them. Still admire that he's as good a writer as I've heard about secondhand tho.

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

I have No clue tbh because most things other people struggle with I also struggle with, I still say I'm a learning artist for a lot of reasons.

[mindrole]

lately im properly keeping off my wrist, ive never had an injury (at least not from strain, ive hurt it def though, i got launched off a treadmill once when i was a kid) but i fear it, so i'm being vigilant. i'm fine tho. but its really boring cuz i usually doodle to fall asleep...

but i was thinking like, cell series character designs are really great, i think there's a wonderful uniqueness to them in the design philosophy, but

isn't everyone so difficult to draw....?!?!!! usually i feel like... after the first few times i don't need to pull up a reference anymore, but with the characters in this series no matter how many times, i still look up refs, btw did you know shinano has two tone hair? it's not a shadow.

shinano in fact is up there in difficulty... i think balancing his facial proportions is difficult... he should be so cutes and so adorables but he's not like, karen or izu. the hair is also kind of a challenge, namely his hair after he got a haircut.

the character i think is easiest to draw is ryuu. definitely. i've seen people say hatsutori is deceptively difficult to draw. i agree... even though i feel like by some miracle i understood how to draw him much better than others, he's REALLY hard!!!

the funny thing is, recently the last ryuu i draw, i said "i looked at a ref for once"? well its cause i usually ref my own art. usually it's fine. for ryuu who is easy for me to parse it's usually fine, but i realized recently the bangs were wrong the entire time, so i wanted to try being on model at least once (whether or not i apply it correctly next time is a big "maybe"). also i always draw the bunny ears too short, but that's usually something i am very conscious of (because it is a moe point that i hate that i neglect. MOE IS KING)

of course you'd think... well you draw miwa almost every day... you must be proficient in that? the answer is NO. in fact, he's the only character i am pulling up a picture from the actual game to draw almost every time. CONSISTENTLY. dita's look is easy enough to understand i guess, but the usual look, what's with those bangs?!?!?!!! WHY? i draw his bangs too long, but honestly that's not something i'm interested in rectifying. if anything, i've literally never seen anyone draw him 1:1 to the one picture we have, i feel like everyone struggles. genuinely have not seen any two artists draw him the same. so i am not worried about trying to be "on model". it's his fault for having such a weird wig in the first place. i mean, look, im gonna put it under a readmore and i genuinely want to know if you guys think it's fucked or not. i think it is. usually i have like, the one canon picture we have right, and then 3 of my drawings to ref how i did it, it's a struggle every time. but he's too funny. a character who haunts the interlude and doesn't have a single line in it, only ever talked in the one com report. so i keep drawing him because there's so many jokes to make at his expense. it's very cursed. i think having this blog made me a little obsessed.

for the dita look like i said in another post there's a lot of inconsistencies so i just take what i like. though for the most part i follow the design in the interlude. there's not much to comment about, aside from how i'm wondering where his ahoge is actually placed on his head. i just decide on the fly because i can't tell. it's not consistent between appearances. i won't talk about the scarf i'll start foaming at the mouth im not kidding

not even going into the characters i find near impossible like theodore. i'll cry. i'll be here all day. haruki is hard to draw too...

anyway, here's your serving of miwa's fucked up wig that haunt my nightmares every day because i hate drawing this hair so much:

i hope he DIES in com for this, is he stupid?

i hope everyone finds out he's 60+ years old and he has to hold a press conference apologizing for lying about being a recent ex-teenager

OC Creation Asks: 1, 3, 4, and 12 for all

Jolt-

he changed a lot at one point, but he's always had electric ~abilities~ and he started with white hair and well, now he still has it. he's also always had blue eyes. When I orginally made him i just wanted a cool electric dude with white hair.

he's had a few names, but the name 'jolt' was because a friend made a joke "call him sparky, or jolt lol" and there we go. as for his real name, lucas valdez, I mostly just thought it sounded nice. lucas means "briger of light" and valdez has a few meanings but "brave" is the one i like the most.

I really wanted him out of all the characters to have been the most traveled, and to have been the one to actually understand the duality of the wasteland. areas that are desolete and obsolete, void and unforgiving, but aso places that are filled with life. I wanted him to be a traveler because it suits him, out of place in an out of place world.

being corrected by my grandmother for my admititly poor grammar in spanish. I dont show here everything and there are certain things ( mostly swearing, but i dont need help with that part lol) that i often struggle with in spanish. I grew up around people who didnt even speak english, so you'd think id be fully fluent, but i grew up speaking spanglish, which is both bad english and spanish grammar. :)

Bux

I wanted bux to be goofy and fun, light hearted but a little sinister. Like he seems fun and jovial buttheres something off about him, but i also wanted him to be creative and curious. I also wanted to make a character with some kind of black out tattoos.

Male rabbits are called 'bucks'. I thought it was fitting. His real name, Sawyer Kelly, hold no real meaning to his character, and again, i just liked it. It's Irish, and he's irish, a lot of people from west virginia are irish.

His father's farm. I feel okay spoiling this because even if i do bring it up later it's inconsequential to the plot, But his father ows the farm he lives on. its a small farming settlement that supplies a few local settlements, set away from them specifically to avoid raiders and pest animals from attacking and infesting settlements, and also to provide expansion room if needed. The walls of the farm are tall and looming, specifically designed to look like a prison.

his face, i can never draw it consistantly.

Keres-

I wanted a cool witchy character. I dont see enough of a sort of 'wasteland witch' aesthetic, and i also wanted a lot of nature to play in. apperance wise, their make up and outfit is almost exactly the same as the concept art.

I looked up cool witchy names on google. Keres is the name of these greek dieties/creatures that are supposed to be harbingers of death, but it also reminded me of kerosene. Talutah is a native american name, and it means 'blood' or 'blood red', Elsher means 'defender of men' and is irish. (keres is not technically soiux, they're meant to be inuit and irish, but i really liek the name talutah.)

pretty much the same as jolt, but on the opposite. where jolt is meant to be well traveled to iscolate him, keres is well traveled as a means to meld them with everything.

despite never posting it, i actually doodle keres all the time, they're probably the easiest of the 4 to draw for me. I would post more of my doodles but i often doodle on paperwork, and its often sensitive company info that i cant release so i dont risk it.

Rikki-

pig tails. I wanted her to be cute and fun. I also wanted her to stand out without doing anything special, so her design is intentionally (bland is not the word im looking for but idk how to describe it?)

I thought it was funny, and i had to pick a legal name cause of course i did.

Living with keres. I dont really show much of rikki's backstory both because its… a lot… but also because she doesnt need it. obviously it impacts her, but as previously mentioned shes the most mentally healthy of the group. without spoiling to much, living with keres is really the only freedom she's ever had, so essentially its the only life she knows, and fit into her surroundings well. ( now that im typing this im not sure i understand this prompt fully, and i hope these explanations actually make sense?)

she's a girl and i am not an ~expert~ at drawing women. I learned how to draw men from classic anatomy books, which typically show masculine musculature, and on top of that I don't have a lot of women to reference. ( nor would i ask them because asking a guy to pose for something, or posing myself is so much less weird then asking a woman to do it and i don't want to feel like a creep) and even though my a parents complain about all my characters being 'skinny' ( even though I've explained that for most of them like, jolt and bux, are constantly on the move and literally live in a wasteland where food is likely either scarce or toxic) for her its more than intentional. and again, I've learned to draw people based off books or the people around me, and all the women in my family are curvy or just as muscular as the men. So drawing a cute, skinny, white girl is not really something i have an abundance of in my portfolio.

6 12 15 24 for the art game? btw your art is sick and I rlly like ur martyn design

hello!! thanks a lot <33

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously.

honestly, im not sure how to answer this one, sorry :00

12. Easiest part of body to draw.

hands, probably! it's kinda ironic, 'cause i know a lot of artists really struggle to draw them. and i do too sometimes!! but nevertheless i really enjoy drawing hands

i also thought about saying eyes, but ehh, hands are probably easier for me

15. *Where* do you draw?

i was actually hoping someone would ask! :D

i mostly draw at home (surprising, isn't it), but recently i also started to draw in suburban trains a lot. i often take rides to a nearby city and they usually take around 40-60 minutes, so at some point i decided i shouldn't just waste this time. and i'm not talking about drawing in sketchbook or something, naah, i bring my laptop and tablet along. which is probably not very convinient, but it's funny

i have a picture from one of these rides! (aand this is also a spoiler for an art im going to post soon... hopefully)

and, other than that, i also doodle in my sketchbook a lot during classes/lectures at the institute ofc

24. Do your references include stock images

yeah, ofc! i also sometimes use pictures from pinterest as references. and if i need a reference for specific pose and i can't find it, i take pictures of myself for it

[lord-shitbox]

for weird art asks: 5, 9, 12, 15, 18, 4, 30

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw

uhh...ive drawn gozu and mezu so often theyre like my Default easiest possibel faces actually. i don't draw other characters much....... latest foray i failed at was Muu (discord pfp, in my portable doodles sketchbook) but i think i mostly got him down by now.

long term, fucking sari. evil design. who came up with that shit. (i did)

5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself

i post almost EVERYTHING, actually. there are a few doodles here and there that i end up never sharing but I do post comps of my scribbles (digital and physical) once I feel like I have enough of them. most of it is on instagram tho i dont post shit on tumblr lol

9. What are your file name conventions

tbh, a very short and incorrectly typed summary of the piece (usually character names, maybe another word about what theyre doing) about 80% of the time, sometimes a random phrase in my head while i'm drawing it.

crops of an image get random keysmashes + manga colors are just whatever i saved the panel as tho.

12. Easiest part of body to draw

legs, actually. I used to hate drawing them because I hadn't really figured them out ((....2 sticks???? umm??? what do)) but I got the hang of it and now it's the most intuitive part for me.

the key is juicy round thighs and triangle calves to me. also the underside of the calf+back of heel making a concave curve. also hip dips.

15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)

for serious art, in my room at my desk 95% of the time. sometimes in bed. I doodle very occasionally in class, unless it's Jessie's history period (she doesn't allow devices) then i'm doodling in my sketchbook the whole time. it's pretty healthy for me actually. most of my paper drawing is done during her class

i've TRIED going out to cafes and such to draw n use wifi for the low low price of an iced mocha and it's very nice EXCEPT. i get a bit insane about what other people are thinking while im doing it so yeah i do it in the house

18. An estimate of how much art supplies you've broken

not much actually. except i distinctly remember just literally snapping a pencil with one hand while i was using it, twice, so that was pretty. funny???

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

NOBODY WANTS TO LIKE THIS POST 500 times but ME BITCH actually wait im posting it on instagram again i do not give a fuck

[randomdork-artdump]

I'm late but if you don't mind I wanted to send in these

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw

12. Easiest part of body to draw

19. Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

No worries, anon! In fact, I was in such a good mood that I added some doodles.

10.

In general, I adore drawing long sleeved outfits, sweaters and turtlenecks. You can see it in most of my doodles. Also, it’s something I’d enjoy wearing irl if it weren’t so fricking hot here.

12.

F A C E

My go-to doodle subject. Expressions are fun.

19.

Honestly, I don’t draw a lot of inanimate objects but if I were to pick one...hmmm... probably flowers (not the best but I try).

20.

H A N D S

My friends would say that they hate drawing hands but I love drawing them. Which is funny because I hated drawing it when I was younger. I’d find different ways to hide it or just not draw it at all.

[iztopher]

hi. at this point it may be evident what i'm about to say. but for that ask meme: ALL OF THE QUESTIONS

JHFDASK YESSSS okay here we go!!!

1. Art programs you have but don't use: Clip Studio Paint!! I pretty much ONLY use it for the grid and text feature, otherwise I don't like the workflow haha

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even): Drawing in profile is the same to me from either direction, but for 3/4 view, I naturally gravitate towards / find it easier to draw people facing left

3. What ideas come from when you were little: Since I've been into Aveyond for so long, and that's what I mostly draw, I have a lot of ideas that pretty much originated as "I wanted to draw this as a kid and didn't have the skill to"!

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw: Te'ijal and also Galahad. it's the hair.

5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself: Finished art I'd say I share a good 90% of it! Once we get into sketches... hoo boy, maybe 40%?

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously (i.e. this horse wasn't supposed to look like the Last Unicorn but I see it): Whatever this is, it's either too specific to the piece or too subconscious for me to think of it

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate: traditional illustration, painting, watercolor...

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in: A heads up that my answer to this is sad but I'm trying to talk about this type of stuff relatively openly, so: spring 2021, I watched Willy's Wonderland for the first time w/ Ishti + Moonie; we kept talking about a Galahad & Mel AU for it. I had two pictures for it planned, and I drew one of them, and... the timing worked out where Moonie never got to see it, and I've lost the motivation to do the second one. But I like the first one and I'm glad I drew it and I take some comfort/peace in the fact that I was working on something I was excited to share with her at the time.

9. What are your file name conventions: I have a folder for all my art, a subfolder for every year, and then a subfolder for every month, which means there isn't that much overlap! so unless I have a funny title idea my file name conventions are generally pretty straightforward: "mella1.sai", "teijalahad.sai", "teijalstudy.sai" etc etc

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw: Does armor count? If not, gambesons.

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what: Yes!!! Pretty much always music, occasionally video essays. Usually I'll pick a song and play it on loop, or if I'm in the mood for more variety I'll pick a playlist or an artist and listen through that. I also really like drawing while on call with people.

12. Easiest part of body to draw: I'm so sorry for my answer. Boobs.

13. A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing: I'm not sure I have an answer for this one, actually - there's a lot of artists I like the work of who I wouldn't want to emulate, but that feels different to me?

14. Any favorite motifs: Not really, in theory I really love flowers but I almost never draw them

15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth): I used to draw pretty much everywhere, but post chronic pain it's my desk only because using a tablet hurts wayyy less than a sketchbook!

16. Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing: Landscapes / natural areas from photographs lol

17. Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what: Water ALL the time, coffee if it lines up properly

18. An estimate of how much art supplies you've broken: Very few!! Probably less than 10. I mostly draw digitally

19. Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.): ARMOR AND WEAPONS

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy: Hands and armor!

21. Art styles nothing like your own but you like anyways: Honestly the art styles unlike mine that I like tend to be ones... I wish I had... I'm really drawn to realistic, somber, softer stuff

22. What physical exercises do you do before drawing, if any: Tendon gliding exercises! Tbh I should start doing more, it might help

23. Do you use different layer modes: VERY rarely, mostly not

24. Do your references include stock images: Yessss

25. Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by: I KNOW this has happened but I'm totally blanking on it

26. What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended: I'm not sure if this counts but pretty much any time I get a "cute!" response on a te'ijalahad picture I'm like oh no please do not say that,

27. Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with: I tend to warm up by drawing a headshot of the character I'm going to be drawing, but lately I've been trying to shift to warm ups that are more focused on like, the action of drawing and loosening up

28. Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines): I participated in a zine that ended up not happening, and I've done several fandom exchanges!! Mostly the Aveyond Winter Exchange, but also the Oneshot Podcast Network exchange on AO3 (yeah it was AO3 but I did art for it)

29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically: Infinity Train!!! absolutely adore it, the art style doesn't really inspire me at all & because I got into it in the thick of my hand pain I never got used to drawing it

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated: None! I mostly draw Aveyond so pretty much all of my art is in the 1-10 response zone so it all feels pretty consistent gdjkgklsdf
