Snooty characters they judge you while you're drawing them.

quick sketch from this morning, almost finished writing

[Mallory]

Some quick sketches of Leonie's future coach, Coach Flowers:

I think her final hairstyle will be dependent on her son's. I haven't figured him out yet.

[aqua03]

So I drew a small mini comic starring some alternate versions of @nathanKmcwilliams' characters for fun tonight.

[stiatent]

Started doodling on December artboard, Taking a shot with Evan again -
anyone up for a for a mini collab?

Left left his arm open for a hug from anyone's oc, feel free to draw your oc in and hug him or any friendly reaction you come up with, I'll adjust the left arm to compliment whatever you decide to draw

@migxmeg those assignments look awesome yep Assignment 5 looks fun
you're right, finished board came out awesome, galed ppl filled it up,
yep pupper is sweet indeed, with tail wagging and ready to play with little Noel
Excited to see what surprises lay ahead in the December artboard, interesting didn't know we can paste in there too, mayb as the Nov. artboard wasn't filled up they prolly allowed it? Wished they had a text tool too

@MerrowBros those snooty characters, sorry they judged u while u drew them lol
they're judging us onlookers on the forum now so u're no longer alone XD
awesome poses, keep up the awesome work!

@stiatent
Oh! I'm interested. Was it drawn on Magma Studio?

[MerrowBros]

I should have expected this. : )

[Kelheor]

That rotation looks splendid - I'll confess I love creeping on your construction lines to try to figure out a bit how you're doing it O_O.

Meanwhile I am more interested in how you do the studies, hahaha ^^
Mine are pretty easy, mostly I chalk out the shoulders, elbows and knees when going down the figure, the line between the elbow and waist is just for identifying the movement of the elbow relatively to the waist, but it's not really doing anything for the construction xD

[stiatent]

@wispysing Yhep on the December Magma board. Yep draw to your heart's content i can always readjust his arm, and shrink him to suit yours XD excited to see what uou come up with

@Kelheor love the dynamic sketches and the shirt drape lines look awesome always exciting seeing other artists' process to drawing. I'm sort of similar, with head and torso n then the limbs. And true @migxmeg your studies has us facinated, keep it up

[Kittyfox]

I recently learned that it's one of my favorite characters' birthdays today, so I drew her! The kanji in the bubble above her say "magic" ^^

[migxmeg]

@MerrowBros I feel so unworthy . Would love a dress in that color though :3.

@Kelheor thank you for the breakdown! pretty easy? It looks fantastic at every stage, will 100% be trying that on the next figure I need to draw. Studies... I have a time lapse of every sketch I make, rip storage (I'll throw it on discord since no mp4s here) - sadly I've trained myself on the kind of bad habit of just looking at the ref photo that's on my monitor and starting from one spot and using the magic of lasso tool adjustments DX.

[migxmeg]

Not too shocking but this was significantly harder than hands for me.

[aqua03]

Lol. The kid's got his heart in the right place at least.

[IndigoShirtProd]

Created an alternate fantasy monk outfit for one of my characters. Man I love costume design

[nathanKmcwilliams]

as far as comic team ups go, I might be biased but it'll probably be the best one ever. (Eventually)

Frowback Friday!

This drawing dates back to 2015, when I was still in the process of designing the characters for my comic. My readers might be surprised to see that Maeve's design was finalized way before Jim and Melody (in fact, Maeve and Darrel's designs date all the way back to 2011). This was also before I knew that Mandy Patinkin has a beard now : P

And a new drawing for today, as well, also (to not be lazy):

[Mallory]

@migxmeg beautiful bones as always. I like the color of the background - it makes all of your shades and highlights look really gentle.

@IndigoShirtProd Those are some really nice bodies under those outfits. O.O

@nathanKmcwilliams Ooh I just love the spacing of black inks, textures and white paper on Rip. It really pops in this sketch here. I don't know if this means anything, I don't think it does. I think I'm trying to say that I like the way it looks, but words are hard at the moment.

Did a proper turnaround for Leonie since someone sat down and wrote down the first three chapters of her story...

And super rough sketches of 3 of the supporting characters...

[IndigoShirtProd]

The rough sketch of my alternate monk outfit of my character, Elliot!

[nathanKmcwilliams]

@MerrowBros
That's really neat behind the scenes info on TPS. Really interesting that you had Darrell's design locked down all the way in 2011. Was his personality the same?

@Mallory
Aw thanks. If you look close, you can tell I smeared the ink. I didn't wait long enough for it to dry lol
