todays bounty, goodnight haha
Some half-hearted sketches, practice because I´m really tired after the
weekend. The comic jam in the park was great. There were some really talented
kids. One very polite kid was really interesting, his granny told me that he is going
to museums and is interested in art. He was like 9 years old, he picked the most complicated
drawing template and copied it 1 to 1 with a lot of patience. It was really interesting to watch.
The comic jam with the kids did not work out. They wanted to draw from the template that
I prepared. Superhero and tree were the 2 top templates or they just wanted to draw something
from imagination. It was a good day.
Then we drove to Luxemburg with the band. We played on a car show, everybody was
looking at the cars, eating and drinking, nobody was listening to our music. Felt like the
hottest day of the summer. Drove back and I´m really tired. Luxemburg is one of the tiniest
countries in Europe, they have 600.000 living there
holy cow, i have not been on tapas in ages, lifes draining me so much.
Trying to find another job that doesnt drain me of life and the lite energy ive had left between shifts im going all in on cross stitching 
been browsing a lot of pages here i missed, seeing some new faces too i think, so much goodies in here you guys 
Heres just some few stuff ive been doing lately, slowly getting back to drawing again, altho the cross stitching is what keeps me floating mostly these days, im trying yo get some stuff done for a witchy convention in october, altho i dont know yet if i got a table or not.
Also gonna be making my first totebag for the convention
and some sort of fake tarot prints maybe
@migxmeg And Abbi’s face-making face looks excellent! Glad to see him back on the page!!!
@Callaxes love that shading! That chair gets a chef’s kiss.
@strawbisci ‘tis a fine bounty, indeed!
@PoquitoBird nice FX! I like how the shaded skull/glowing eyes turned out, for sure
@Lensing good news about the table! Glad kids participated (and yeah, I could see why a comic jam might be a little intimidating)
@rumpenstiltzkin good luck getting a table! The tote, tarot designs, and cross stitchings are too much fun
I’m cheating by having Penny sign with her back toward us, but I’m running out of ways to keep the conversation looking fresh. A 13 episode conversation (sounds like a lot but they are short episodes) has been a lot of fun to make, but a big challenge in trying to keep it visually interesting from episode to episode.
Call it brainrot, but this idea stuck around for a while now. Gonna challenge myself with this and the following 2 illustrations, probably uwu
I figure every crew needs a car so I spent an embarrassing amount of time staring at the Hot Wheels shelf at my local Walmart until I decided upon a 1970 Ford Ranchero to use as my model.
Here's me figuring out scale and color.
More photo studies.
How it started, how it ended up.
Currently working on these 5 characters:
They’re part of a larger scene that’s like 3% done at this stage.
Highlights include one of the characters getting her hand chopped off mid-spell casting:
Warlock dwarf guy doing a hadoken
Wizard elf guy having a Trolls 2 “they’re gonna eat me, oh my gooooood” moment
And the center piece is one of the characters rushing in to save the party rogue 
Wish me luck i’ve never done a scene this complex before 
I really love those tarot designs, may I suggest checking out Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood for inspiration?
@DanielRKM thank you 
if this whole illustration gig never kicks off, I can get a job designing chairs.
@DanielRKM thank you
@Callaxes thats some really nice photostudys, love your soft colors! and good luck on that big illustration, it looks rad so far! love the dynamic poses!!
and thanks for the inspiration, that game looks good, gonna have to check it out, loving the vibe of it
I never learned the mannequin from the Loomis method, I woke up at 4
today and didn´t know what to do so I tried to learn it and draw it from
memory. I think I can get used to using that model for some male figures.
Espeacially the ribgage is useful
W.I.P Panel... question: For a girl baby newborn, does she look bigger compared to the other characters especially compared to her brother?
Should I make her smaller? Been using 3D model and would love to hear some feedbacks... thanks
I agree with the shorter limbs. Here's a quick graph I found on the googles featuring Toddler vs Baby sizes (featuring undisclosed ages) from 6th Ave Second Hand.
There's a bit of foreshortening on the baby limbs (so beware) but it looks pretty legit to me. Good luck and squish those baby features (newborns are VERY squishy).
Thanks... I did shrink her slightly and not going to overboard and I think this looks a bit better than the first attempt.
One useful thing to remember is that our heads grow a lot less relative to our bodies. Our bodies get like.... I dunno, 7-10 times taller (?), but our heads only get 2-ish times taller through our lives. I grabbed this google image of a "mom and baby":
You can see that mom's head is only a little bit larger than the baby's. So when drawing kids I usually give them pretty huge heads relative to their bodies, and heads only a little bit smaller than the adult's. I usually do something like eyeball the adult --> figure out the child's head size relative to adult --> give the child a body based on the size of that head.
Speaking of children - did some work on Engram today!
