@april-doodles - Tumblr Blog

Howdy! Thought it’d be nice to make a new pinned post, so here it is :)

You can call me April, and I like drawing so much I tried to make it my career. I’m multi-fandom at heart, and you’ll find a lotta fanart here, but I really like drawing original characters and comics as well! I like using a blend of traditional and digital methods but until I get a printer, it’s pretty digital for me lol in order to make my work.

Late night character design/posing studies featuring my latest DnD group. Also spot black experimenting. I should start using spot blacks more…

#my art #dnd characters #the other players practically begged me to consider making a comic about these guys—#—so this is me experimenting on what I need to change to convey them better in a story format vs roleplay format #two barbarians a monk a fighter and a cleric walk into a bar. they die.#i played the character all the way on the left (the cloaked one)#this group was called the Royal Pains (since all of us were playing royalty in one shape or form)#which was actually a really fun dynamic in my opinion #my sillies… i already miss you…

My sketchbook is meant for the silliest things ONLY. (Different iterations and reference under cut)

#self reblog #regarding my last post. if you don’t know what I’m talking about #maybe now that I have an actual scanner I should scan this properly…

I hope that to the House of Ashes community I’m not only a friend but also that guy who drew Salim “I know you’re here Dracula you big fucking nerd”

#not art #one of my favorite drawings/posts of all time I think #that was a good sketchbook. she has some gold in there I’ll tell you what.#house of ashes… i miss you…#I need to draw/post more hoa soon. guys wait for me. fanart is not far…#(i just need to remember how reference pictures work)

Miscalculated the size that my sketch was getting printed at. My little baby illustration.

#my art #kinda? i mean it’s a photo of a printed sketch #comic jazz #la la laaa my personal comic work!#one day I’ll ink this sketch. but for now I must work on other things.

Just realized my icon is the pan flag colors so I must make a disclaimer that i am not pan i’m bi. I really am both but i just like the bi flag colors better. So i’m bi.

#hope this clears it up #not art #happy pride lol #i dont think anyone would make that connection at all but I just shot up with the realization that those are the flag colors #as ive gotten older ive realized im not really a ‘labels’ guy but if I had to choose. yknow?#i like everyone but i got preferences.#I usually just say ‘im bisexual’ when it comes down to it. so i’m bisexual.#is this better suited for my non art blog? maybe. but my non art blog has a completely different icon so this wouldn’t even make sense there

New icon that I wanted to keep spiritually the same as my old icon but I just love my lines so much I couldn’t bear to go without them any longer

#my art #self ish portrait #new icon yayyy #the black does make the colors pop less but I love you lines <3 #this is technically the Cartoon Network color palette #my old icon was actually drawn when that ‘CN color palette challenge’ was big… but I just like the colors lol.

I love working on three projects at once. If I get bored with one I can just work on the other. And maybe neglect the third one. Oops.

#not art #from my main blog #i feel like this belongs here too #trying to juggle my comics and fanart and dayjob like a circus performer.#… and for my next trick I’ll work all day and sleep 12 hours straight!

Got really nostalgic for Splatoon. Here’s a quick drawing of my squidsona that I had 10 years ago…

#my art #sketch #splatoon #my first ever fandom and my introduction to discord / internet friends… wow…#i kinda miss playing splatoon but I was only really good at Splat 1 and I’ve surely rusted out of the game by now…#sona so old it’s from back before I realized I wasn’t cis… waow…#I don’t have the heart to change her design though. she’s like a little artifact of my past.#she still shares my name though. this is April too.#i used to have a BUNCH of squid kids but it’s been so long since I’ve drawn anything splatoon related #I’m surprised the technique for drawing them kicked in.#my old splatoon friends… i miss you guys…. <3 #genuinely this game/the people I got to know in this fandom did shape me/my art in ways I probably can’t describe #but I dont wanna get too sappy in the tags

Sorry I can’t hang out I got Blood Pit at 10.

#my art #dark pictures house of ashes #rachel hoa #MY SHAYLAAAAA #i support women’s wrongs.#i think the best part about drawing game accurate rachel is in fact dipping her in blood.#referenced from the matrix. I have a wip with the screencap I used like 2 posts down on my blog #kinda phoned in the background just a bit but. shhhhhh

Silly “Meet Potential Artist slander post” Redraw while I was slacking off drawing comic work :)

#my art #self ish portrait #meme redraw #meet potential artist #I swear I draw things other than HoA and Comics I just. don’t really post them here #tumblr is like my fanart/shitpost site. whereas instagram is my professional original content site #been getting into the sabres recently. if you cant tell by the featured shitposts.#a Buffalo Boy at heart but I’ve never lived in Buffalo. go figure.#anyways. back to slacking off I go :P

Had to drop everything and draw Salim (with a little ragdoll Jason) because it’s his BIRTHDAY TODAY!!!!

#my art #dark pictures house of ashes #salim hoa #jason hoa #but like he is a little doll #SALIM MY POOKIE!!!! MY CINNAMON APPLE!!!#he is SO HARD to draw which sucks because I love him #and i cannot draw salim without a little jason #i was torn between making it jason or zain. but jason and his 9/11 hat is so recognizable so i chose jason #i made his hair yarn. that’s what the reference had for the doll’s hair so I gave jason yarn hair too.#and this drawing fought me all the way. i’m still not quite happy with it BUT. i must post this today. for birthday boy othman.

“Wow this is so good! What’s your technique?” Ummm I just put some bullshit down and pray that it looks good. :)

#not art #ESPECIALLY when it comes to shading #I don’t really use reference a lot (i should use them more) so i just freeball crazy #dont be like me. use references. for poses and especially for lighting.#brought to you by: im blocking shadows down and i’m freeballing this shit crazy style #i also have aphantasia so how i happen to bullshit stuff out astounds me. must be muscle memory or something.

I’m writing a chapter out for one of my comics and went “hmmm I need the group to be able to travel through space but also want them to have proper living spaces like a bedroom and bathroom. RVs have that. Why don’t I just give them a space RV.”

And as I was figuring out how that would work in my setting I was filled with the dread of remembering that the concept of a space RV already exists. In Spaceballs.

#not art #unisword #my thought process was ‘i need these guys to get from this planet to that planet—#—and i’ve already established that there were these sort of planetary buses that would bring people back and forth.’#and proceeded to FORGET my formative years of watching Spaceballs as if it isn’t a pillar of comedy for me.#I literally have a spaceballs poster in my room. this is a humongous blunder on my part.#i cant even be mad i gotta respect a brain blunder of this caliber.#i’m in too deep now. i gotta keep my space rv.

Wip from a week or so ago. I promise I’ll finish this one eventually. Trust🤞

#my art #sketch #wip #dark pictures house of ashes #rachel hoa #rachel tries to aurafarm but I genuinely cant draw guns or forshortening. sorry girlypop.#you can never make me draw the full game-accurate outfits/models i’m sorry #that shit is so technical and i dont wanna get bored drawing tactical gear. SOCOM can suck my ass #pose is from the matrix i’ve never seen it but i should…#i’ll finish this when my sunburn goes away i prommy i just didn’t wanna agitate my wrist with drawing AND being burnt. so.#also i post a lotta sketches/doodles with the tan bg and i dont think i explained why i do that here. it’s to prevent eyestrain—#—because looking at a screen with a bright white background while drawing for hours on end hurts the eyes BAD.#so i changed my go-to canvas presets on procreate to have that mid-tan color as the background. :)

So much for my yaoi dreams. Maybe tomorrow…

#my art #work doodles #alt text has everything written out cuz i know my handwriting’s a little illegible at times #I wanted to draw jalim when I finished my shift but i got fucking pulverized at work today #and i need this to be the only eventful day of work this season I MEAN IT!!!#whatever. I get to rest and care for my sunburn all day tomorrow #aloe vera gel save me… save me aloe vera gel…#THE FUNNIEST PART IS. I slept bad because I kept thinking about Jalim while trying to sleep 😭#doomed yaoi but like the yaoi doomed me.#not pictured: i was standing for so long my feet started hurting BAD. i got 17k steps in.

guy who wants to be a comic artist but doesn’t read superhero comics. Um. Hi guys 👋

#not art #i just wanna draw my silly stories and then also ink other people’s pencils is that so hard to ask #i’ve never really vibed with the whole superhero genre but i loved Bone as a kid which got me into wanting to make comics—#—my goal is to make Bone not Invincible. if that makes sense.#one day I’ll have a published comic. HOPECORE.
