#off hand sketching

[rjavenuru]

Since I'm doing the hand practices I thought I'd do inktober with them as well. So I picked 31 of my favourite sketches to ink and planned the whole thing. Well, it is now the 15th of October and I finally managed the first one ROFL! So I've changed it to ink****ber 😝 Let's see if I can actually manage all of them before the end of the year. Using a Sharpie and also first time inking with my left hand.

HD Erised Art Claim - Stolen Glances 👀✨

It takes a while for their gazes to meet, but it doesn't mean they weren't always looking.

My giftee was @dodgerkedavra! It was very serendipitous, because dodger had written a fic earlier in the year based off of my prompt for the HD Hurt/Comfort fest. It felt like a good way that I could get her back, so... I tried my very best to!

She asked for: "kissing, intimate times, gorgeous light, when they’re looking at each other and so in love" and "intensity? of color" and "manbun", all of which I tried to deliver on. So yes, everyone thank her for the manbun.

A bit about it

I wanted to see if I could do the equivalent of a pining/slow-burn longfic with just a sequence of illustrations--and not even big, flashy ones with varying compositions--just relatively consistent shots that focus on them and the gradual shift in feelings towards one another.

The main concept was, as the title suggests, that they keep looking at each other when the other is not looking back. Visual yearning! In each illustration, the observer and observed swap. They seem to keep missing each other's glances, until the very last illustration, where they are gazing domestically at each other hahaha.

For each illustration I also tried to work with different color schemes, lighting, and moods, depending on what was happening. Draco's hair also goes on a bit of a journey, which was fun! It was my first time giving him long hair! My favorite length is just right before the manbun, when it's probably long enough to be annoying but not long enough to be put up.

The fest/exchange was all the right things for me - fun, inspiring, and challenging. Thanks to the lovely mods for all their hard work, and for making everything run so smoothly. And thanks to everyone who already left me really nice comments.

i didnt plan to spend my sunday this way

[cartoonguy08]

I decided to challenge myself, since I’ve been wanting to do this for a while!!

I picked Pyro, although the gas mask was tricky, it was better than doing the other mercs faces (I think they’re a bit harder). I also looked at a LOT of references to make it more realistic(?) to his model.

And then we just have that cartoon freak on the side lol

pretty thing that appeared in my sketchbook during history class. came out kinda weird and very unconsistent, love it for that

"a flower..." (mispronounced)

because today has been a Bizzyboy kick for me i decided to sketch my hcs about the height and builds of these guys. who knows if i draw them like this again or iterate upon the designs though.

Also calling out how horribly I dressed Grujaja. theres a reason i did it but its still foul XC

as the guy who asked about fiddauthor in relativity falls

I have also fallen down the train of fiddlestan

Oh believe me, I LOOOOVE Fiddlestan, those little freaks make me wanna combust 💥💥💥

I like to imagine Stan being in his “Hopeless romantic who really wishes he wasn’t in love I’m with very much TAKEN best friend” era back when the two were like 15-17. Absolutely smitten but not saying a word <3

Then when Fidds and Emma break up when he’s like 17-18 he gets a little crush on Stan, right as Stan is trying so fucking hard to get over Fidds

I also like the idea of the two working on cars/bikes together, since Stan is learning how to take care of his car/future car while Fidds is already pretty good with mechanics, it’s fun for them

This all has potential for silly romcom shenanigans, which I am very much not immune to lmao 💥

Anywho have a bunch of Relativity Falls Fiddlestan doodles because they make my brain wanna eat drywall <3

keep returning to an au where josuke impulsively corners and annihilates a serial killer in the alley an unfortunate okuyasu was taking a smoke in. and with all the machinations of her mind, okuyasu suggests cleaning up the body. because duh ofc that's the obvious answer rn. and josuke kinda pretty who said that
