Sketch Practice Because It's Been Forever And A Half Since I Last Touched Traditional Art

Sketch practice because it's been forever and a half since I last touched traditional art

My favorite is the SandWing in the middle

Edit: great the image quality is poor thanks tumblr

Day 1 of MerMay: Synchiropus splendidus, or the mandarin dragonet. This one’s a tired grandma. She loves her grandchildren, but needs a break! XD

wait omg I never posted this annual redraw that I did on July 4

Day 3 of MerMay: Amphiprioninae, the family of clownfish. I chose the common one, because I’m so basic.

ughhhhhhhhhhh I left this sitting for 4 months. unbelievable. I had it finished and everything but didn’t want to post it sshdfjksfd

better late then never I guess

#8: What’s in Their Bag?

Let’s start off strong. I chose Chloe Pendragon, my first OC (along with Cloud) ever created. She’s like an assassin mercenary so she’s got weapons like daggers, shurikens, poisons in vials and hypos, a grappling hook with a rope, and a small first aid kit in case things get messy.

#9: Friends

So these are the next OCs that I made, same world as Chloe’s. Honestly they should be remade because their designs are pretty boring to me. But if I ever had time to look back on all these characters I made when I was in like 7th grade and appreciate them, I’d say I like their friendship dynamic. 

#10: Enemies

If anyone remembers Ethan Akihiro, the character I drew way back from here that looks like... DanTDM? I think? He’s in a world that’s like a combination of TRON and San Fransokyo from Big Hero 6. The next OC that I made after Chloe and her world. This is my favorite sketch out of all of these, it just looks so good Not going to spoil much, but Ryan Nakagawa wasn’t always an enemy...

#11: Casual Setting

I chose the most un-casual world I have, How to Write a Vampire Story (name not final yet), where all the characters live in an old mansion and are really into theatre, history, and literature. Friend groups really be like that though. Didn’t really think of what to do besides them hanging out with sweatshirts and hoodies and drinking hot cocoa so--

#12: Formal Setting

This is Nicole, one of my Romantically Apocalyptic OCs. Because you can’t really have a formal party in the post-apocalypse. Felt like I drew too many people in suits so I decided to switch it up a bit. Unfortunately I don’t look at dresses for reference so I did this off the top of my head.

#13: Timeskip

This one was a bit difficult to choose because I don’t really age up my characters. However, I realized I could choose George Vqzmnx from the late 2019/early 2020 cringe era. He’s now aged up from 8 to 16 and is in Eta Carinae with Finnick Caulomb. Always recycle, folks.

#14: Historical Fantasy/AU

Choosing Apex! He’s a knight instead of his usual superhuman with power armor self. I think he looks alright considering I didn’t use a reference for knight armor. Now he can be buddies with Gawain! (who is a knight and has power armor, makes it a little unfair...)

Secret Santa gift on discord! I included 2 versions because I didn’t know if the earring was dangly or not.
