making slow, slow progress on drawing my friend's chars so I have refs for our pairs...
Hello! I come from another site that is much more in-depth with their forums. One area they have that I wish they had here is an art chatter section, not for selling but for general art-related conversation. My favorite thread in there was the "what did you draw today" thread. It was fun seeing other people's daily drawings and a fun way to try and motivate myself to draw at least something every day. On Toyhouse, while it's art based, sometimes you might want to draw something other than an OC you have on site but still post it somewhere. Sometimes you want to share that silly scribbly thing you spent 4 hours on but not on DA or Instagram (or whatver you post on). So yeah, here's a place to drop your daily doodles!
-Art doesn't have to be fully finished. WIPs and sketches are totally cool to share!
-There doesn't need to be conversation if people don't want it. Feel free to just post your art of the day and run. Conversely, if you want to chatter it's more than welcome, especially if you want to discuss anything relevant to the drawing process :)
I'll make this into post pretty someday
This was last night, but I forgot to post them. New refs for the judges in my comic's band competition.
this is so far the biggest thing I ever had to draw for someone and I nearly fried my garbage laptop lmao
I made a Roy icon, and kind of tweaked the Lilina icon (Though that one was yesterday).
I somehow got into the habit of drawing human/humanoid icons in this style, so yeah, I'll probably make icons like this for any of my own OC's too heheh.
im really really tired and havent been able to draw in a few days, i was able to hammer out the time tonight to do this sketch of Ophelia tho
im gonna go pass the hell out now
Draw a monster from Serbian mythology because I write a fiction where Konstantin and co. visit his hometown in AD 185 on a mission to annihilate mythical creatures. Probably not 100% correct since there is so little information on this Todorac.
I finally got this beast prepped for shading. Def one of the more time consuming sets of lines I've done, a half-body will typically take 1-1.5 hours to line but this was closer to 6 hours because I forgot how damn fiddly all that flight gear is to draw. True to Sod's Law I found a good tutorial on posing after I'd done the bulk of the lineart and put 3 hours into the lines so the challenge was getting the pose to read/communicate character better without re-drawing too much of what I had. It was actually pretty fun trying to trouble shoot that!
Haven't forgotten Hendrix's rank stripes, gonna wait until I know exactly what I'm doing with the clothing folds because I've gone back into the habit of completely re-drawing/re-shading clothing folds several times lately. Also debating on if I wanna leave this showing Hendrix as a flying officer in fighter command or if I want this to be the first drawing showing him promoted to flight lieutenant on being transferred to bomber command.
If anyone's interested original sketch with old pose is under spoiler.
