The folks of the gg fandom discord were discussing the ways that Jägers have changed in appearance since the first page. And one person was mourning the disappearance of the Volume One Jäger needle teeth. (So valid, it was an excellent feature)
So I agreed and suggested "Draw the needle teeth you want to see in the world, I guess?" unfortunately Jägers are not included in their art skillset. And so I figured "I suppose I must draw the needle teeth you wish to see in the world". And thus my fate was sealed. A "quick sketch" (ha! I should know better than that by now) turned into a colored shaded drawing with carefully colored lineart. I do believe something like 5-6 hours were passed in this manner of painstaking lineart and unnecessary (albeit loose) rendering.
The moral of this story, as with any attempt at quick digital sketches, is that I cannot be trusted with the art app. Inevitably a casual affair turns into a several-hour-long details fest. Such are the hazards of having your cell phone be your digital drawing device.
Does this mean I will stop? No, of course not. As with every mishap of this variety I learned so much about my drawing abilities and the features of my long-beloved art app.
Gradually I am acquiring new skills and abilities. Someday I will be able to create things that used to be well outside my capabilities. Through the power of Autistic Hyperfixation and ADHD Hyperfocus Fugue-State we can accomplish anything!
