Developing a character for a story!
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
extremely rough doodle from last night. I did a lot of cleaning yesterday & ended up crashing after I finished my sheets, but at least I got to go to bed under a warm blanket fresh from the dryer (now if only i was less tired when i made this so i could've actually made it a warm pallete lol
I drew my favourite pirate OC Jones in my "old" artstyle, and I'm pretty proud of how it turned out! Could have gone further with the rendering part, but I wanted to keep the thick lineart visible and not go too much into painting style or too over the top rendering that ends up looking bad. This one works well !
I finished an animation I've been working on for a couple weeks. It's from the first scene of my novel!
 | Made this today and I'm super proud of it ;u; It's in a new art style, which doesn't really look like its inspiration: paper cutout art, but that's fine, because I love it in other ways. I already have ideas to improve the art style to look more like paper cutouts. Plus, it's of one of my favorite OCs, Velleda (IC), who makes me smile every time I see her. I also like the moth doodles featured as decoration. I only got into moths recently (as of about a year ago) and don't draw them a lot, but I was able to represent them relatively well with such simple doodles, which is really nice to see! Lastly, I made it Velleda's new icon because I liked it so much:  |
