mega blaziken redraw for @poketcg-art's #poketcghoenn event!

original under the cut along with the above art without formatting. i wanted to go crazy with colours, partially inspired by card artist mingo. and i ended up reusing the formatting from my previous card redraw.

very random selection of a few commissions i’ve done so far LOL😭😭

Voltron redesign repost (Matt and romelle finally added)

its kind of the opposite for me, my roughs look so ass😭 but i learned that its okay because each new pass is an opportunity to improve things and fix mistakes

its always best not to overthink things and just plow through the work, at least for me bc i know if i stop to plan, nothing will ever get finished

also if youre worried with about your cleanup being too stiff, the solution ive found for myself is to have a bigger gap between it and tiedown, so youre not just tracing over the same lines. its more tricky tho because you have to figure out a lot of things like perspective and volume while also drawing clean, but this way your linework will be more intentional

to make it easier to maintain consistency and good spacing, animate body parts (or even parts of body parts) separately, like go through the entire movement of the bottom side of the elbow, then return to frame one and do the top side, etc (you can kind of see it in the video)

also, if something is bothering you, like if a drawing seems kinda off, or you feel like the animation is jittery in some spot, my advice is to get in there and fix it! even if it seems like its gonna be too much unnecessary work. at least for me, i know if something is bothering me, it will bother me every time i watch the animation, so its better to fix it than to have an artwork i cant look at.
