his biggest sin was having blue hair and pronouns.

Back at it with another art post

This time digital

Compared to my last post, I think I’ve actually improved

#no there isn’t context to why he’s sad #I just needed practice and since I’ll most likely draw more angst than wholesome in the future might as well start now #still trying to figure out shading and lighting but if anyone has any tips at all please do tell :’)#sadge maro man

Mutual left this tag on one of my Fuuta analyses and yeah...

Part two of "Fuuta’s central theme is invasion of privacy and he has extreme anxiety over being watched, so it's interesting that we get to pick him apart and see all his worst, most private thoughts" :(

#milgram #fuuta kajiyama #i didnt want to be annoying with a tag but thank you trinipopkt for the original tag :3 #ive never posted something like this so let me know if i need to tag anything #my writing brain may be struggling rn but you can bet im still over here drawing fuuta 😅👍#part one was the lil moodboard on main #this also had slight oc connections (my brain was going brrr having a scientist oc) but once again its general to the audience overall #plus i was really proud of the composition/posing/colors i switched to -- i was excited to share!!#it took me like 80 years to pick a composition/pose that worked asdfsadsg #and i had to redo all my coloring and shading because i wanted a more neutral sterile science look than what i originally had #anyway it wasnt my usual type of drawing so it was a lot of fun to see it come together!#i did the first version and my partner said it was mean (and against procedure) to keep him awake #but then the second version felt equally mean :(((( so in conclusion rip fuuta #he is my little bug and i am going to figure out what makes him tick

snippet of a miitopia poster i made depicting my team + my evil great sage. in the center is cirno, my protagonist. idk if i will post the poster now, the crossover might be too much. but i do like this portion of the poster the best. maybe i will do it and post it alongside a post of all the job designs i made for them.

#mayor doidles #fanart #mayors ocs #miitopia #i ain’t tagging touhou proper. or any of the connected series the characters are from if i do post the full poster #the characters are blorbos but this is exclusively miitopia fanart ok #cirno #kandy #great sage #miitopia great sage #digital art #cell shaded #when i post the full poster i need people to get cool with a lot of things. /j #ok the main hang up is the hetalia character even though i shouldn’t care.#look. aph america is my lad and im reclaiming him. he gets the ultimate legacy pass cuz i’ve been putting him in my crossovers since the #very beginning. i guess there are other characters i am more flustered to include but he’s the one that’s got me a little nervous lol #will you still love me if i posted hetalia america fanart. don’t answer that i’ll figure it out #ANYWAY…… i have once again drawn kandy bein evil n shit isn’t my daughter so cute :33

I think you need a Software Upgrade!

#mangle #I drew mangle again to absolutely nobody's surprise #I just really wanted to draw something mangle related to this song #there's actually another song I wanna draw something to that is probably what I'll be drawing tomorrow.#had a lot of fun drawing this #the binary text is just cropped lyrics from the song its probably not comprehensible since I didn't really care aout making the numbers #small enough to be read as one whole word sequence #the binary text was also just the most annoying thing to figure out how to do. the text specifically. I just. Krita why.#still had fun though. I didnt pick the EXACT shade of the spotify embed either because the slightly darker version just looks nicer. bet yo #didnt even notice until I told you #the drawing itself is just the (two) idiot(s) calling even though they're literally attached.#also software upgrade innitially I just didnt know how to do that for mangle except that shes just messed up etc. so i did hardware upgrade #one head has the old ass phone and the other a newer headset (still an old model)#I think that's all the explaining I need to do. mostly based off of the vibe the song gives me #love y'all stay safe!!#pitskederdoenerhaendler #pitske’s art #mangle fnaf #fnaf #fnaf2 #fnaf 2 #five nights at freddy's #the mangle #fnaf mangle #Spotify

Might as well post this teaser too, to show what Din looked like 12 layers before he made it to my new commission post header XD

#dincobb #din djarin #cobb vanth #wip #the mandalorian fanart #I had great fun with all the flowers on the hat!#until I had to figure out the shading on it and realizing I couldn't really match it to the one from October #Cobb still needs his own 12 layers of shading too oops #but spring and allergy season is here to let's all appreciate din and his grumpy frown from beneath that hat yeah?#my art #Cobb's got to be the header for my previous commission post #now it's din's turn #the hat is a constant

Annnd we are back to drawing ocs again!

@mimiruku your recents post about Blood & Peppers were inspiring 😆💜✨👍🏼and the Yamantaka art especially urged me to take my tablet out.

So...

*throws oc art at you and runs*

The colours and the hair my dude... they were just so pretty I needed to draw him so bad 😭 Also it was good practice for different perspectives since I kinda slacked on that with my recent art lol

#khr #katekyo hitman reborn #khr oc #art nook #digital art #i'm getting the hang of shading i think #i still need to figure out different light source stuff #but i have the basics down #also first time i actually signed my art work lmao

Kresh time.

#belatedly realized if he and Skaro are twins then I need to up his maturity slider a bit I think #they don't share the same exact face because I couldn't bring myself to do that so they just have very similar ones #I often confuse these two faces myself (only difference is in the brows really)#githzerai #bg3 tav #my tavs #tav: kresh #he's so pretty I'm kind of in love with this hair #couldn't bring myself to give him the exact same color eyes either and their hair are slighty different shades of pink #so maybe they're fraternal twins instead of identical #need to figure out his lore and personality still but kresh sure has a chip on his shoulder #it's actually kind of funny if his parents had Plans for him and then Skaro up and joins the sha'sal khou and hooks up with a gith/llithid #now he's got all this weight of expectation not to be an additional family failure - and eventually he fails too #he's probably only going to figure that out after making a lot of mistakes though or else it isn't any fun

Hi! In your recent post, (the drawing of Eddie) you mentioned that you were struggling with the coloring. As someone who is obsessed with coloring and color theory, I was wondering if you would like some tips? If not I completely understand!

But just so you know, your coloring is awesome and I ADORE the color palette <333 have a lovely day!

(p.s, I'm sorry if I'm overstepping boundaries, it's not my intention but if I am let me know <3)

its not that i dont Understand! on a technical level, i do. i've watched/read countless tutorials, helpful posts, tips tricks shortcuts - you name it! i can look at someone's art and pick out the process behind it. hell, i look at my own work and im able to go "oh, this is what's wrong with it"

but there's just... idk some sort of disconnect in my head. a mental color blindness of a sort. its like looking at a thing and knowing how it works, but once you go to put it together your mind goes blank.

i mean i wouldnt say No to some tips. you never know what you don't know. there could be something You know that i somehow havent seen yet that would help immensely. so sure!

#sooometimes my color brain works for a half second #but its tough. its tough #im better at very restricted palettes #which makes Scenes very difficult!#like im trying to do this Frank piece and the sketch it great #then i did the lineart and its less great. now im trying to figure out the coloring and its a damn mess lmao #rambles from the bog #like ill look at a thing and go 'ok i want this to be more subtle so i need pastels and pastel-leaning colors #from primarily This area of the color square. i need greens and yellows with blue as an accent'#and then 50 versions later the colors are still not working! yk?#it takes extra hours of just adjusting shades and hues and switching them out and putting them back and AGH

Gelnek Goes to a Gala

More Dan Jones & Dragons art! This time their glorious Double Leader, Gelnek (played by the inimitable JoCat) all fancied up in his best Goblin party-attire.

More Flower Crowns Gala Outfits: Morenthal | Hobson

Design talk under the cut:

Unlike with Morenthal’s outfit (which was mostly drawn from Dan and Gamb’s official stream design) I thought it would be a fun challenge to take the chaos of JoCat’s Gala outfit brief for Gelnek (a large fluffy fur coat and stacked tower of Cowboy, Pork-pie and Trilby hats) and try to render out something fashion-adjacent.

Figure-wise, I wanted to push the broadness of Gelnek’s build and body-shape, since Jo introduced him as being atypically bulked-up for a Goblin (to the point that he sometimes gets almost-mistaken for an odd-looking Dwarf) and charging Hobson down like small green boar during their first training spar. I thought it would be fun to lean into him being a stocky bundle of muscle compared to how Goblins are typically drawn.

For the coat, I liked the idea of taking men’s fashion-furs and giving him a long-cut trench-style coat with a big fur ruff around the collar. Really fluff the guy up with an impressive “beast-coat” that makes him look even bulkier.

Gelnek’s under-coat situation wasn’t described, so I went with a close-fit black two-piece since I figured that could help emphasise his actual silhouette without being too visually busy, and might make some fun strong shapes if I wanted to draw him in more dynamic situations later. I also gave him a few sash-belts with some of his hunt-trophies pinned on (the Voidcrystal Snail-eye, a Wyvern Tooth from their fight on the Javelin and Trilby’s gifted Dragon-Scale button), just to keep the under-outfit from getting too conventional.

Hat wise, there’s not much that can be done to rein in the “putting a hat on a hat” effect of the Trilby on Porkpie on Cowboy tower, so I just tidied them up a little with some nice complementary colours and bands that coordinated with the rest of the ensemble. The Cowboy brim and long coat combo ended up giving him some strong gunslinger energy, which is kinda fun for a traveling war-bard.

For his hair, I wanted to neaten up his big mess of fluffy curls for the formal setting, without going the same slicked-back conventional-imperial-common route that Hobson and Morenthal were already sporting. Since Gelnek’s birth-tribe come from a swampy region and places a lot of cultural importance on headwear, I thought it might be fitting to do him up with some neat protective braids.

Gelnek’s shoe situation was an interesting one since canonically he doesn’t wear them. I didn’t want to deprive him of his quest for the perfect shoe, but also figured he would need something to avoid the standard “no shoes, no service” rule at formal events, so I ended up pulling inspiration from Across the Spiderverse and giving him some Pavitr Prabakar-style foot-wraps with a bit of fancy gold trim to match the sash and middle hat.

I also decided to rep’ his drum-shield, seeing as Gelnek ended up being allowed to bring it into the venue. It’s barely visible in the final drawing but a good quarter of his thumbnail page was notes on how do drum-shield work? In my head I see it as something like a kettledrum set inside a convex round-shield/Dhal that lets him beat the drumhead while keeping the shield between him and danger. I also like the idea of him being able to play the shield part like a handpan.

Bonus look at his sketch layers because this man's hats and physicality fought me harder than he fights drakes:
