Animation loop from my new series Pokedex Animated!
I read a lovely article the other day, and it got me thinking about the homeless who only have their animals. Planning on making a comic of this.
Finished the Balto set (with Togo as a bonus). Fixed a couple things from the individual posts, including completely redoing Jenna since she didnāt match with the rest of the set by the time I finished them up. I had never drawn any of themĀ before besides Balto so I was really happy with the way they came out. I may add some minor Balto characters later, but I wanted to move onto the GNG/GDW series since Iāll be working on them for quite some time @___@! It was nice to FINALLY do some proper fanart of my favorite movie after 20+ years though :0

I was asked how I made the rainbow light effect in my last piece, so I put together a quick step by step.
I can feelā¦the serotonin and dopamine droppingā¦i need to makeā¦Crafts
i must makeā¦

I have seen these things for years but never knew how to make them so I must thank op for this new knowledge
op has given me the best gift possible
ive been making them for four days
Am⦠am I back in the 90ās?
Bead animals were my JAM in the 90ās!! And you donāt have to limit your creativity to lizards, either! With a few adjustments, you can make anything!
AND with a little practice, you can even make them 3D shaped (especially with the smaller beads and wire, though you can make them with the bigger beads and string, to an extent)Ā

It drives me absolutely insane how people can start out with this
And end up with this
Ways to cheat at NaNo (that I think are totally valid)
We all know NaNo is supposed to be fun, fulfilling, and magical, but lets be honest-- this time of year is already bonkers busy.
For some of us, the pressure can be really, really discouraging. So here's a list of NaNo hacks I've used in the past that have really saved my sanity.
Switch your timeframe: Thanksgiving is HUGE for me at work, so that last push week is just NOT an option for me. So in years past, I've started a week early and kept myself to a 30day time frame, just shifted in a way that allowed me to finish it
Drop your word count: Yeah, theres no official way to do it outside of Camp, but do it mentally anyways. Then you can still ride the high energy of NaNo without the stress of a goal you know you cant meet.
Work on an existing project: 50k is a very small novel. If you know your project is gonna spill over, just track the 50k you do in November.
Count EVERY word: work on an outline? Did a brainstorm? Rewrote a line of dialogue 70 times--delete NOTHING. Count it ALL. If your approach to NaNo is just 50k of words, then toss all those words in a pile and sort it out later.
Chatter with friends: The words always seem to flow better when were gushing away with friends, yeah? Count it! If it helps you figure out things about your world, its valid, and totally counts imo

Since Inktober is cooming:
You dont need draw all the days
You can do digital art
You can color your pieces of art
You dont need follow the official inktober list
Dont rush yourself in do all the days. You arent a failure.Take a break
Have fun
And remember! You are great!
Funny fact: you don't even have to draw. I'm in the Inktober newsletter and the guy himself is super cool about people doing short stories, or poetry, or whatever kind of art with the prompts for Inktober.
hey! nice to know :D
I havenāt done realism in at least 5 months ugh
Reblogs appreciated lmao
THIS IS A FUCKING DRAWING???????????
being a self-taught artist with no formal training is having done art seriously since you were a young teenager and only finding out that youāre supposed to do warm up sketches every time youāre about to work on serious art when youāre fuckin twenty-five
someone: oh yeah, do this exercise during your warm ups! itāll help
me: my what
Whatās up I have an actual college degree in art and I was never ONCE taught to do warm ups.
when i was in undergrad, it was kind of mentioned in and offhand way that we should do warmups, but we were never shown what that meant. And, yāknow, we were young so it didnāt matter so much.Ā
Being older now and having an art job itāsā¦kind of essential.Ā
So: a quick primer for those of you who are likeĀ āok but how do i actually go about doing this warmup thing.āĀ
1) you may be tempted to doĀ āa warmup drawingā which is just a drawing that will take longer than it needed to and probably be frustrating and kind of bad because you didnāt warm up first. Itās tempting but always a trick your brain is playing on you! Do not trust!Ā
2) warmups will vary based on what feels good to you/what task youāre about to do/what motor skills you want to practice. That being said, some good standbys:
a) circles. Just a whole page of circles on whatever drawing surface youāre going to be using, whether thatās your tablet or your sketchbook or a drawing pad on an easel. For these circles you should make sure that youāre drawing from your shoulder and not your wrist. In fact, you want to be drawing from your shoulder rather than your wrist most of the time! forever! your wrist is delicate please preserve it!Ā
In order to ensure that youāre drawing from your shoulder, when youāre holding your pencil or whatever drawing tool youāre using, the only part of your hand that should be touching the drawing surface is part of the last two fingersāsome people prefer the finger tips, but I tend to favor the first knuckles. Either way, the fingers should really be ghosting over the surface, providing guidance rather than support.Ā
I usually start with big circles and then go to smaller circles and lines of ellipses, and then try to fit circles and ellipses inside other shapes iāve already drawn as a precision exercise, but i donāt do that unless iām feeling loose
b) spirals! i donāt always do spirals, but if iām stiff and the circles just arenāt cutting it, spirals are a good fall back. I start from the center and work outward, going both clockwise and counterclockwise until i feel comfortable with the whole range of motion. Some people really care about getting perfect spirals but for me itās all about making sure iām comfortable with how iām moving so who really even cares about how the spirals look. Not me!Ā
c) lines! straight lines! in parallel! i do a mix of vertical, horizontal, and diagonal. These are often more from the elbow than the shoulder, especially if Iām working on a smaller surface. For this exercise, I recommend holding the drawing tool perpendicular with the surface
d) connect the dots. This is a precision and accuracy exercise and takes two forms. The first is to draw two dots and then draw a straight line between them. The second is to draw three dots and draw the curve that connects them. This sounds a lot simpler than it is in practice. Take time to ghost over the line you plan to draw before actually committing to your line. (I donāt always remember where I picked up my warm up exercises, but Iām pretty sure I got this one from Scott Robertson. His how to draw and how to render books are very technical but also accessible and worth checking out)
e) cubes, spheres, cones, and cylinders. These help get your brain into a more volumetric space. I draw multiples of each, rotating the forms around, and Iāll often take the time to do some rough shading on at least a few of them
f) spidermans! This one is really good if youāre going to be storyboarding or working on dynamic poses. Just fill a page full of spidermans doing all sorts of acrobatics.Ā
g) beans. I donāt do beans too much anymore, but I know a lot of people like it so Iām mentioning it here. Fill an area with different size bean shapes without lifting your pencil off the paper.Ā
h) short medium and long line repetition. draw a short, medium, and long line on your page, and then draw directly on top of them 8 to 12 times, doing your best to exactly trace what youāve already drawing. Repeat with a wavy line. Iām bad at this one, which means I probably need to do it more.Ā
And there are lots more options too! Hit up youtube to see what other people recommend, put together your own go-to list, mix it up when youāre getting bored, etc.Ā
This is a long list, I know, but I usually donāt take more than 10 to 15 minutes to warm up, and I can warm up one handed while Iām drinking coffee, so, multitasking hurrah.Ā
Sometimes Iāll advance to a precision warmup and find that I havenāt loosened up enough yet; itās totally ok to go back to an earlier exercise! Also, all of this has the added benefit of kind of ritualistically getting you into the drawing mode so even if Iām not feeling it before I start, by the time Iāve gotten to the end Iām usually Ready For Drawinā. Brain hacks.Ā
so, yeah! thatās a lot of words, but! Warmups are important! Save your joints, take less advil, do better drawings!Ā
The ONLY WAY to combat the lack of funding in arts education is for professionals to take a few hours a week to share their skills for FREE, to empower and encourage the next generation of artists. THIS IS WHAT THE INTERNET IS FOR. Hereās 200 tutorials:

How to draw a fist!Ā
oH MY GOD. wHAT.
hi! i was wondering if there are any references you use/used to draw cyc and tg? (for the life of me i canāt find decent full body refs :ā^))
Ive got a couple!! Iām starting to read back through MTMTE slowly and gather more but hereās a couple I use a lot. I find it super helpful referencing all the different artists that work on the comic and seeing the different interpretations of them :) I hope these help!
