#overall i'm really proud of the drawing

[marshmallow-fluffy]

Day 11 of @amphibianaday's Amphibuary, painted! Also my day 10, video game, which is under the cut for mild Rain World spoilers (@overmorrowpine and I stumbled into super late game area as like, our fourth place we went to and it was Epic. The drawing isn't very spoilery though, just what a part of it looks like). Please look at it I put so much effort into it

And my mom's!

And the context for hers

black pearl cookie, the woman that you are 🥰🙏😳🙈🖤🖤 this was supposed to be one of those 1-2 hour sketches I had been doing recently, but of course I took like 5 hours and multiple sessions working on this 😂😂 this drawing turned out a lot better than I expected, so it gets a separate post!! all the others are gonna be in one post most likely 😋✨ there's a comparison post under the cut!!

the way I finished this and then GASPED when I looked back at the black pearl art I did from 2 years ago omg 😳 the improvement I made is INSANE and I'm really proud of myself!!

(i'm sorry for burning your eyes with my old art 😔🙏)

I remember the thought process of the 2022 piece being along the lines of me struggling with wanting to have a more "mature" art style 🫠 essentially, I wanted to draw art that made people go "wow that's HOT", and move away from drawing cute things (it still turned out more on the cute side, but it was a good first effort 😂😂). recently, I started doing art style studies of artists with art qualities I really wanted, and I'd say it helped a lot!! I'm finally at a point where I'm actually happy with my art style and the way that I draw overall, so that's a total win for me 😊🙌

I was playing around CSP with my old drawing tablet this weekend, I'm not really used to it anymore, but I found out it's fun to sketch in it!

I wanted to try finishing a rendered piece, so of course I had to draw Morax lol I'm quite happy with the result, even if it's messier than what I usually do, though I like messier styles, I should try to incorporate it in my procreate art too

I'm also pretty proud of the eye, I also had a lot of fun rendering it. Overall, a very self indulgent drawing I did for fun

Some of my personal favorite parts and drawings from the Firefight animatic based on @remedyturtles's fic.

I really like the 'characters rotating anime opening'. And I love the symbolism of the twins starting with reaching for each other, only for Leo to limply keep spinning past and drifting away. Would love to have it animated slow and smooth.

This scene is one of my favorite scenes. I'm very happy how the cuts match the music and especially the last drop to shocked Leo.

I like his face, very handsome. I'm not as established with how I draw the rise turtles compared to 2k3 boys, so it was fascinating to see how it'd morph over me drawing them like 100 times in a short period of time. They definitely got more elongated facial shapes and Don a sturdier body build compared to canon (I wanted to emphasize him being a bit blockier compared to Leo).

Reeeeally like Don's pose in this and the overall composition and movement of the shot. Very dynamic and dramatic.

Aaand the money shot #2 All the previews I shared while I was working on the animatic, were ones that I'm very happy with. But this one is very special. I like that someone was able to guess Firefight based only from it, haha.

I'm a big fan of the visual trope of characters turning to gaze at each other meaningfully, conveying things without saying anything. So there's a lot of that in this animatic. I really wanted to get Donnie's expression right, his sorrow and determination, and I'm happy with the result.

Back shots are fun. They can express a lot of emotion while concealing what the character is truly feeling. The drawing of Don grappling fallen Leo is one of my top favorites from the animatic, I just really like how it looks. Overall I like this whole scene a lot.

And of course, THE money shot #1. The culmination of it all. I'm very proud of the animated bits too, but I made them their own post.

YIPEE IT'S FINALLY DONE

spent the past like, month redrawing the sb cover art (original for side-by-side reference)

rambling under the cut

WOOO I'm so happy to finally have this done. I spent forever working on it, I wish I kept track but I'm pretty sure it took a month to fully finish, I've been working on it like every day for the past couple of weeks and I'm really happy to finally have it finished :D

I'm really proud of the rendering/shading on this one, the text was probably difficult which is why it looks the least accurate. I didn't want to just re-render it and re-draw the human characters so I changed the designs a little bit for this, first time I've drawn any of them. I thought it'd be fun to make their desgins fit a bit closer to the cartoony art around the pizzaplex and just smaller details I find fun.

(if monty is allowed to have spikes on his chest cavity i think freddy should be allowed fluff.. he looks so bald, if you count chica's feathers he's literally the only animatronic without hair LMAO)

I accidentally made some colors a bit more pastel or desaturated but overall I tried to replicate the rendering as well as I can, it was really good practice for understanding lighting better and stuff. (Roxy had like, 3 different color light sources I think? Monty had the most though..)

But anyway! I'm really happy I got this done so I can work on other stuff lol. I might use it for background stuff and I kept all the assets so I can edit them for pfps if i or other people want in the future.

Hope you enjoyed :)

MONSTOBER: DESIGNS

Part 1: Teen Cast!

HELLOOOOO everybody! Welcome to my project, Monstober! A series of several posts with large, in depth looks at different aspects of my AU, Monster Kids, that I wrote during October this year. Special thanks to @eurazba for listening to me ramble over all this and helping with the AU over the years <3

This post will be going over the general monster designs for notable teen characters, as well as some thoughts as to why I chose said designs :D

There will be a second post for the main adult cast, and once posted, you can find it linked here :)

Jim / Toby / Claire

Jim Lake Jr (Sphinx): It's him! The poster boy! Wahoo! Honestly, I don't have many notes for his design process, because his design has stayed relatively similar since the early drafts. His was the very first design, and other than being a typical lion/eagle sphinx for like. two drawings, and then a panther/blackbird for two more, once the snow leopard/blue jay combo was struck, he's only really changed in small ways. I chose a blue jay, because they're one of my favorite birds, they're blue, and I'd used them to be an accent to Jim in a previous drawing. Snow leopards are also my favorite big cat! So similar reasoning for that particular aspect. If I were to design him today, blank slate, I miiiight have changed his cat species, but I still am way too attached to the leopard/jay combo.

Toby Domzalski (Gargoyle): Toby's design also hasn't changed much! The main trio haven't, other than minor adjustments. He originally had yellow eyes, but they're back to standard green. He also used to have larger wings, and while I liked the idea of the main three being able to fly together, I decided to go with a different route as I leaned into his design looking more aquatic, and he instead has wing shaped back fins! They fold down and sit under his clothes, as he only really can use them while swimming.

Claire Nuñez (Harpy) Also another design I haven't changed since conception! Harpies were always something cool to me, and I was inspired by an illustration of harpies in a mythology book I had bought at the time. Her design was originally just 'bird' until I tired to find a more specific species that fit. I landed on barn owls, and coincidentally, they are also associated with brujeria/witchcraft in Mexico! Win-win. With her stronger connection to magic overall, she's also the only member of Team Trollhunter that can fly reliably; her magic feeds her energy enough to keep in the air (Jim's wings are too small for anything besides light gliding and cushioning falls).

Steve / Eli / Krel / Aja

Steve Palchuk (Faun): Steve's design was always pretty formed in my head. For the guy that tries so very hard to be an all-American boy, an icon of that is the whitetail deer buck, and it very quickly fell into place! His design is fairly simple, which is why it works so well for him, IMO. Fun fact, he has a set of scars on his cheek from the equivalent of the fight he had with Jim in S1. More to expand on in a later comic, >:3c

Eli Pepperjack (Bat Humanoid): Eli was actually also a sphinx originally, but I wanted Jim to stay fairly unique among the main teens, so my follow up design was something more batlike! I did do plenty of research for monster bats, or hybrid bat monsters, but what research I could do didn't produce much (then again, could always be wrong!), so I went with 'attributes'. He's based on a Little Brown Bat. He little >:) His wings are also not capable of flight, they're basically large hands, all the better to hunt down creepers with, my dear.

Krel & Aja Tarron (Amphibious humanoids): WAHOOOOO!!!! I'm very proud of these, because you have NO IDEA how many months I struggled to find a design I liked for them. They have been (checks notes) spidertaurs, a few other passes of various insectoid tries, I was going to attempt something more seal like, because I knew the main group's designs were already mammal-heavy, and something aquatic or insectoid was what I wanted to balance the group out. Then my beloved @eurazba, listening to me ramble one night, helped me come to the idea of their 'human' transductions looking closer to old monster movies! Creature from Black Lagoon was an easy pick, I did some research about CFBL and Shape of Water (thanks Del Toro), and bada bing, bada boom! My fishy twins! Also Krel is the only one wearing shoes. Just realized this...

Mary / Darci / Shannon

Mary Wang (Dryad): Mary has also gone through a lot of changes (turns out, I was very indecisive outside of the main trio, AJDJSBSJFHB). She was actually a -taur alongside Darci! Specifically a unitaur (saw a lot of alternate Monster Falls art of Mabel Pines as one, and I really liked the idea. The overall AU was inspired by the Gravity Falls AU, now you know!) She stayed that for a while, then also went through some bug-like redesigns, and then a couple months back, I decided on a dryad! Before that point, I was trying to stay strictly to animalistic monster designs, but it became a little too confining, so she exploded into my sketchbook and became real. Her tree is a california redbud, and her 'antlers' are like the branches of the tree, and leaves/flowers bloom in time with the season on them. The hooves were based on a Zelda design from an artist I liked a lot (truffe.art on IG!)

Darci Scott (Praying Mantis-taur): HERE COMES THE BUG PAYOFF. Some of you may remember my design for Darci hasn't changed for quite some time, and while I liked the look of the cervitaur (a centaur, but deer), it didn't feel... as unique as I wanted? And I was still missing my BUG. So, debating over this, I did a few passes of her mixed with a bee, spider, etc etc... and then once again, @eurazba was like "hey! praying mantis." and I fell in LOVE with the concept. (Very quickly sketched her up as I was doing these sheets, actually NDJSNJKJD)

Shannon Longhannon (Gorgon): Last design of the group, another that has hardly changed since conception. Nagas, gorgons, lamias- whatever they're called, I love the visual of a reptilian character slinking around gracefully, and she helped balance out all the mammalian designs as well. She was originally a typical green/yellow snake, but when I inevitably color her, I picture something more ruddy, reddish brown, to match her hair :) She indeed is able to turn someone to stone, but as she was not born a gorgon, this ability is dulled, and only lasts for a few hours, working only if she focuses completely on doing so to someone. She's taken to wearing shades more often to not scare people who don't know this.

[rebeltigera]

Wait, I'm feeling stupid. I didn't get what happened to Mac's ear in the last sketch you posted of Warlord!Wukong (btw, the way you draw him? AMAZING!)

Was it broken? Slashed? What happened? Our poor warrior 🥺

—🐵🐵

So , maybe I'll put it that way

Their dynamic ? Cruel n proud Warlord and very rebellious prize after he won a war .

In which Mac is the prize, plaything, spoils of war , who knows what or who else - big drama overall sksksk. They are just fuckin with each other literal and metaphorical sense

He really doesn't like listening to Wukong and will find any passive To avoid what Wukong wants from him. He would avoid Wukong himself included. And that's what was the problem but Wukong driven mostly by emotions (not mind , like he usually does, he still doesn't know why he can't use his mind near his warrior- ) about his lil warrior - he bit his ear to punish him .

And uh well - it didn't turn out great .

Like yeah , Mac didn't disobey him after that, that he gained, but this ear won't heal how it should and well... Sore reminder not counting Mac flinching from him if he were to touch him

[jayietheriverwarrior]

Alright, here's the last piece of art I currently have done, and not gonna lie I'm pretty proud of it. ^^ When the excerpt for Wind came out a few days ago, I was inspired to draw this scene from it, so here it is. :D

Here we have Frostpaw glaring up at Splashtail, her eyes glitteirng with starlight and the true light of StarClan's blessing, angry and hurt but more than anything determined to keep this cat from hurting her Clan any longer. The scar from Splashtail's attempt on her life is prominently displayed on her throat as she lifts her head to face him. Nightheart and Sunbeam, not as invigorated with the certainty of StarClan's guidance, more weary and worried, but still ready to be there for Frostpaw (well Nightheart is since he's her friend, Sunbeam barely knows her yet and doesn't really know what's going on and is more confused and worried, but if this Splashtail is a threat then she'll absolutely face that threat beside her mate and his friend). Splashtail, meanwhile, knows he has the Clans convinced and that Frostpaw is powerless to stop him from finally taking over RiverClan, and while keeping his composure in front of the Clans, the slight shift of expression, the glint in his eyes and the way his moonlight form thrown into shadow throws its vast shadow over the cats huddled in worried but determined defiance below, shows the true darkness in his heart.

I'm super, SUPER proud of how this turned out. :D Especially the bottom half of the image with Splashtail in the tree. I love how the tree turned out, the perspective, the lighting, the texture, Splashtail himself, his pose, his shading, the glint in his eyes. It just turned out so freaking *good*, I love it so much. :D The bottom half isn't quite as good, I'm really happy with how Frostpaw turned out but Nightheart and Sunbeam still seem a bit off, but oh well. Overall I'm still really proud of how the whole thing turned out. :D

[biconickyoshi]

Zuko ran up to where the figure had fallen, for some reason forgetting who this person could be and the danger he could be in, and pulled them onto their back. He was surprised when he realized that the person he was holding appeared to be a boy, seemingly around the same age as himself. The boy wore robes of yellow and orange and had a completely clean-shaven head, as well as unmistakable blue arrow tattoos all over his body, with the most prominent one making a point on his forehead.

Still astonished, Zuko watched as the boy’s gray eyes fluttered open. Forgetting who this person was and what he was supposed to be doing in this situation, he found himself mesmerized, unable to pull his gaze away.

“I need to ask you something,” the boy said in a weak voice that had not even deepened yet.

“What?” Zuko responded, his mouth acting before his brain could tell him to stop.

“Please… come closer,” the boy said again.

— excerpt from The Avatar and the Fire Prince, Book 1: Air, Chapter 1: The Boy in the Iceberg

I’m back again with fan art of my own AU 😅 I’m really proud of how the first piece turned out, especially considering I have literally no knowledge of how to draw backgrounds lol (I admittedly got pretty lazy there).

I also decided to combine the full-body pose drawings of the boys that I posted individually a few weeks ago onto one canvas (if you saw that those, you may have noticed Aang has been flipped here; I thought it looked better with them side by side). This is how Zuko and Aang appear at the beginning of the AU, ages 13 and 12 respectively.

As of the time of making this post, my fic now has nearly 1.3k kudos!!! 🎉🎉🎉 To anyone who has commented, left kudos, or read even a little bit of it: thank you so so much for the support ❤️

I’m almost done with B2CH12 (chapter 24 overall), so hopefully that will be posted sometime this weekend :) It's The Deserter, an episode that I've been curious of how to adapt for awhile now considering Aang already has two firebenders traveling with him and thus does not need Jeong Jeong as a teacher. I'm not going to spoil anything, but I hope y'all will like where I decided to go with this chapter and what I changed from canon.

hola mijo 💓puedes hacer the tall males as dads? like for example welt, blade, jing yuan, luocha, dan heng i wish i could argenti to this list 🥰 but he not out yet so hottie okay gracias 🐾☝

★ A/N: Hola!! Yes I can :)) We all love a father figure right?

☆ Genre/Trope: Platonic + Familial

★ Format: HeadCannons (Separate)

☆ Warnings: None

★ Extra: Just HCs of the HSR men as dads, you can view yourself as their child or as their lover // I only did the characters that you've stated in the request excluding Argenti // Not proofread

Welt as a dad is a 10/10. He would be so supportive no matter what you'd want to be. He has his own child back in his actual universe after all and takes care of him so well.

He's the type to proudly show those messy drawings his kid makes to his friends and act like his kid is the next Pablo Pacasso even if all they drew was a stick figure.

He also wants you to try new things but he won't force you if you truly don't want too, all in all. Welts such a sweet and supportive dad <33

Blade as a father? Now I wouldn't say he's the worst but he's not the best either. Biological or not, if he was tasked to take care of a kid, he will. He may not understand much about how to be a good father he manages to keep them fed, clothes ect. And with the help of the other Stellaron Hunters they're taken care of well

.

.

.

Except when it comes to affection. He'll try his best but his job makes it hard for him to really be home and hang out with his kid, not to mention he still has that want to die. He's emotionally unavailable most of the time. He's trying his best but he won't be much good if someone were to want to vent to him (Sorry!)

He can also sound harsh in some of his words and the kid may not get the message he's trying to convey! He may say something he sees as positive but his tone and what not makes it seem harsh.

Overall? 7.5/10 as a father

Jing Yuan I think is also a great father! Though like Blade, his job does make him unavailable most of the time. Especially since he's a General.

BUT, we both know this man would drop anything if his kid were to message/call or anything of the source of they were in trouble. Even if it was to just make a complaint about the babysitter he hired to take care of his kid.

He does everything he should to ensure his kid is loved and taken care of, and sure he may not have as much time as he'd like to spend time with his kid, he tries his best.

As a father, I'd give him a 9.5/10.

I'm unsure what Luochas thoughts on about taking care of kids in all honesty. As a doctor himself, he is aware of the cycle of life but whether or not he wishes to be apart of helping the kid grow up is unknown.

I don't think he'd have any adopted kids or something like that, however if he were to get someone pregnant he wouldn't leave them. He was a factor in how the baby was made and if the other person wishes to give birth to said kid then he'll help.

He's not a distant father per say, maybe strict but he doesn't mean to come out as harsh. He does everything a father should do and encourages his kid to study and all. He's not the most amazing father to have, honestly his kids probably prefer their other parent over him (Unless they left him and he became a single father)

All in all, while he may not be the best father he's not the worst and probably is just your average dad. 8/10

I love Dan Heng so much if you didn't know (I say as if my tumblr theme isn't Dan Heng) and this isn't even a bias but I do think he'd be a good father.

He's so worried he won't be but he really is. He remembers everything his kid likes and dislikes and applies it when he's cooking or buying something in general. He won't force his kid to do anything they don't want and will help them study.

He'd be proud of his kids, even if their grades are bad. To him, as long as they tried that's all he cares about. He may struggle with showing his care towards them, however it's easy to see he's trying.

If I had to choose out of all the male cast who I think would be the best dad? Probably Welt. I mean from what I know he already has the experience with kids and now he's taking care of 3 more (4 if you wanna count Pom Pom)...but also it's funny to call him Grandpa instead-

[roxxiies]

Ok so ur probably done with the granger & gusion requests but like your the only mlbb fanfic writer I know so I'm clinging to you like a leech😭 (can I be anon leech?)

Anyway separate granger and gusion hcs with a shy fem reader pls? Like if they were in a relationship with someone shy/easily flustered? Tysm!

𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑, 𝐆𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐗 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑

FLUFF, FEM!READER, HEADCANONS.

a.n.: leech anon!! (creative name, we will have fun interacting HAHA) this work has been baking in my drafts for far too long... me is feeling bad but finally, here it is!

𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑

Granger will not fail to protect you. He understands your shyness and always makes sure you feel safe and comfortable whenever he's around.

He knows he isn't the most talkative and expressive type of person, but he knows how to offer silent support. Like one time, he'd hold your hand and give it a reassuring squeeze when he sensed you're feeling nervous.

But sometimes, when you're both alone together, there will be this unintended silence. He'd be unsure what to say, and you're just too shy to break the ice😞, leading to long moments of awkward silence.

Despite both of your less expressive personalities, Granger will gently encourage you to try new things. He will celebrate your small victories, ending up with you feeling proud of yourself.

However, he will never force you to do anything that makes you uncomfortable.

Granger will try to be affectionate, but you can't help but giggle as he shows it stiffly. He'd put an arm around you awkwardly, not entirely sure how to be tender, but heyy, he's trying his best.

One time, you were both on a date and ran into his teammates or your friends. It led to an awkward encounter and conversation HAHAHA. It's just that Granger isn't great with small talk and you're shy, so the conversations can be stilted but are still sweet at the same time.

He might try to compliment you, but it comes out more bluntly than he intended.

“You look… great…!" he says, then awkwardly looks away, not used to expressing his feelings verbally.

But despite you being shy, you giggle softly at his effort, and his heart swells every time he gets a new reaction out of you.

Overall, the man tries to be more expressive than he really is towards you just so he can show that he genuinely loves and cares for you.

𝐆𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍

Our little rebel loves to tease you playfully. But once it gets too much, he'll stop.

He just wants to make you smile :( and still feel comfortable around him at the same time.

He's also very patient with you, understanding that you need more time to open up.

Despite his whole demeanour, he will treat you with kindness and respect, making you feel cherished.

Gusion will attempt to lighten the mood or awkward moments with jokes, but sometimes all the time they don't end very well.

He'd laugh at his own joke, then realises you didn't find it funny, leading to an awkward silence, and he'd just sheepishly grin towards you.

He absolutely loves when you two are alone together, where you can both relax and just be yourselves. He likes it because he gets to let his guard down, and you'll be able to share your thoughts and feelings with him without any distractions or discomfort.

Knowing Gusion, he'd probably love to take you on little adventures, whether it's just on some tall building's rooftop or trying out some silly stuff you might like.

But he does try to not overwhelm you.

He showers you with compliments and praise! He loves making you flustered and sees it as a sign of your genuine and shy nature.

But sometimes, his enthusiasm for his support becomes a bit overwhelming...

Like one time you tried something new and he'd happily compliment you out of nowhere:

“You’re so amazing!” he'll say loudly, drawing unwanted attention and causing you to blush furiously. You'd smack him after it though and he takes it. (he deserves it)

With Gusion, the stark contrast of your personalities will make your relationship full of surprises. He swore to make sure of it.

back to all my works . . .
