#this whole thing was supposed to be a sketch

[redandrew52]

ok so hi as per usual I have a whole info dump to dump bc when do I not

Lately I've been doing a bunch of art stuff out of my comfort zone. Sewing, 3D art, oil painting, etc... and I've honestly felt like I've forgotten how to draw...not like... actually but like where you pick up a pen and you feel like you've forgotten what you're doing. Sometimes I just sit down to sketch and I just can't. I feel like everything has to be in a specific journal or done a specific way (because wow my brain loves being particular!) and I can't just sit and make something without thought

So to prevent that, I decided to draw some cool Tumblr OCs because that way I can't be particular about it since idk all the lore and xyz

these were all done with a pen so if I messed up stuff then yk, oopsie daisy :') but that's the fun of sketching I suppose (also If you couldn't tell I hate drawing hair- I just scribbled that shit real fast and called it a day (yet in my finished artworks I always get so many compliments on my ability to do hair? Strange how that works))

also!! if you are a person viewing this post who has never seen these artists please check them out they are super talented and their art is a feast for the eyes!! tags w/ corresponding OC below

Ok this next part of the post is mainly just for myself but I'm including it in this post because this is kinda just me shooting the shit on main, so don't feel obligated to read this but if u stick around to see then here is the context:

I have very very bad anxiety and this Tumblr account has been absolutely no exception. I can't quite figure out why but posting on this account makes me feel...sick? That's not quite how I would put it but words are hard...anyways, moral of the story I get really bad anxiety from posting on here and there have been so many finished pieces and shit that I've wanted to put on here that I just never did because the anxiety got the best of me. To maybe (?) prevent that (science experiment(brain experiment?)) I've decided to post a WIP so maybe I'll actually post the finished thing whenever the hell I finish it (I have so many projects going on at once I can't even count)

this is obviously very not finished at all because I was struggling with this so bad that I needed to step back and just stop looking at it for a second but yeah!!!!!!!! ocs!!!!!!! gee golly gosh do I love ocs

OK THAT WAS A LOT OF TALKING MY APOLOGIES BYE

The reference is this photo of Katharine Hepburn as Antiope and Colin Keith-Johnston as Theseus in the 1932 play 'The Warrior's Husband' (and I'd love for people to turn into a draw your otp meme pls pls pls this pose is so good)

And also, of course, the Superman (2025) set photos

Q&A (as asked by my sister and me to myself)

Q: Why is Time wearing his kokiri clothes while everyone else is just in smaller versions of their regular outfits?

A: Time came prepared for a situation exactly like this. shrunken or not child him is not wearing that armor (i didnt want to draw it)

Q: Why is Wind lecturing Legend?

A: He tried to grab a fire rod

Q: Why are they all children except for Wind?

A: I thought it would be funny. Maybe a wizzrobe did it. Maybe blue stalfos from oracle of ages showed up. Maybe there was an incident with Purah's de-aging rune. Who knows I'm just the artist here

Pages from trying to keep a little sketchbook-scrapbook type thing going for two weeks lol. I gave myself specific rules in hopes they might all end up more cohesive/consistent seeming, but alas, scribbly chaos reigns, it seems

What’s the matter? You don’t think you deserve to be saved.

this post from @daalcuntynatural came out of my queue and sent me into a fugue state until this sketch was done (ALT text)

I might have lost my mind over @tumblerislovetumblerislife 's sun and moon gods/cloud and star goddesses au - this is the result. (can’t see the stars for clouds - is the fic and it's awesome!)

The girls are just hundreds of sketches in my notebook for now but one day when exams aren't a thing I might draw them in color too! More sketches under the cut as well as additional notes about the fits:

It's the boys and Niko. And the spirits.

Charles is a literal sunshine here and I tried to show that. His laurels exude sunlight;

I took artistic libraries with the veil,,;

As they get closer to that eclipse ritual thing Edwin's veils get less heavy and more translucent-y; the hat's decorations are either jewels made into flowers or those flowers that only bloom at night

Niko's father faded and her hair darkened because of it; she got better with the help of Edwin and a pair of dead dandelion ghosts;

Charles gave Crystal some of his sunlight beams and she uses them when going to functions and official goddess business; they make for great David repellent as well - sharp and vicious as their burn;

Niko's hair gets braided with stardust and shines in blue, red and white when the light hits right;

Lightning earrings exist: Me: I have to learn how to draw lightning so fast

Charles is covered in gold because I could and his shirt is in sunrise gradient because it's thematic and cute;

Edwin's buttons are phases of the moon and his vest has an iridescent shine to it, there are also stars-dots on the veil;

Yes, I did put Edwin in bloomers, no, I'm not sorry;

Yes, I made Charles wear the Orpheus' scarf, no, I'm even less sorry.

I haven't really done much art for tumblr (at all) lately, cus life, but! Here's a lil something I've been working on (it's a Xmas gift) 💙

(also peep that lil January calendar painting 👀 i did mini squares for each month for myself, because I need to have a physical one always, and they each have their own colour 🥺)
