Thank you so much! That really means a lot ❤️❤️A lot of this is practice and using a lot of references and do studies. For me the big part is having a sense of patterns, material and what to pay attention to when trying to understand fabric folds like where it gathers, where it falls, where gravity is pulling, where anatomy is twisting/pulling, movement/wind, the quality of the material effecting how much it will fold. References is very important, my prefer type is in motion ref video instead of still image. Don't be afraid to draw body parts you are not good at. A lot of people hate drawing hands, but I never really shied away from them as I was learning and as a result I can draw them confidently. I also study life drawing in college for a short period of time, it was all drawing bones and muscles in front, side, and 3/4 view over and over. Then I got burnt out of studying anatomy and started sketching from imagination only to find out that my shapes and poses felt flat. My take away is that anatomy is very important, but it yields diminishing returns. It’s best to always be studying different concepts and applying them to personal projects (such as drawing body part but make it personal, drawing your OCs hand instead)

hope and requiem

you haven't changed, you just think you have

Some fun stats: 3/8 of these characters were created by the same non-binary comic writer, so shout out to Alyssa Wong for carrying canon Star Wars trans rep on their back. 5/8 are from the High Republic project, which is now concluded, so it’s likely that none of them will ever get to be explored. 6 out of the total 8, and 3 out of the 4 nonbinary characters, are aliens, which normally wouldn’t be a problem in Star Wars, but considering sci-fi’s history of never letting transgender (and especially non-binary) characters be Human, is concerning. A whopping NONE of these characters exist in higher-canon media, only comics and novels, and one of them isn’t even canon at all.

[tip jar!]

Three’s a crowd!
