Quan I forgot to eat the day before yesterday and yesterday I fear I'm gonna die

HAPPY 1 YEAR OF MYTH!!!

ITS BEEN ONE WHOLE YEAR SINCE WE STARTED OUR JOURNEY AND WE'RE STILL JUST ON CHAPTER 2!!

All jokes aside, this is a love letter to all of you from your good ol' pal Nortsauce. We couldn't have made it this far without your support and love and creativity.

I'd be honored if you read it :]

So sorry for inactivity! Currently doing a lot of personal projects and college classes have been STACKING UP. I’d like to spend some time on myself for now hence I’ll be putting @thewestsidearc on hiatus! So sorry for the inconvenience :( motivation has been down low and I started it thinking I’d have more of that 😭

“How come I see you and ache instead?”

“How come you only look pleased in bed?”

Imagine hating a demon so much you imagined him as dead. But now suddenly you two had a nightstand and you don’t know how to feel about him now… bonus if his illness hits him after that night aswell.

DOODLE OF THEIR AFTERMATH!! 🥹

I CANT STOP MAKJNG BLUEINK FANART GUUUHHH I LOVE THEM SO BAD!! ‘bonus doodle (WIP):

Bendy taunts him and pokes at him, Mugman often takes it but doesn’t mean he won’t respond. So back at Bendy he does the same. He believes in equal treatment lol.

EVERYTIME YOU POST ART I TAKE MINUTES JUST STARING AT THE FACE

LIKE THE BROWS, THE WRINKLES, JUST EVERYTHING IS AMAZING AND I LOVE IT

SO PLEASE TELL US YOUR SECRET IN DRAWING FACES

The secret is to make the face irl LAWL.

but u also gotta really look at how each of the parts of the face move Lemme use mugman as an example because he has very exaggerated features

these all use the same base but they all have very identifiable expressions

Eyebrows are the easiest way to indicate an emotion/expression. Thats why i love to give very expressive characters large eyebrows. However in 2nd doodle (stressed mug), sometimes to get a proper expression across you need to remove the eyebrows entirely BECAUSE they are so expressive

I find that removing eyebrows allows for a more shocked/horrified expressions because eyebrows let others empathize more. The lack of eyebrows creates a sense of unease and uncanniness

Wrinkles are also very important to give your character if you want either a comedic expressions, OR a very serious and intense expression. It gives your character details for the viewer to analyze.

another thing that can help with expressions is perspective, (ex: the kubrick stare) and different mouth shapes and positions.

the fun part about expressions too is that theres multiple ways to showcase one feeling. Example:

all of the main cast is feeling shock/fear, but express it differently

Cuphead smiles bcs any fear he feels is mixed with intrigue and excitement. Bendy's mouth is agape in disbelief because his character is usually suspended in a realist nature, making these supernatural experiences very hard to believe in. Pebble is very a young puppy, when he's frightened he gets low to the ground, stares intently, and shakes.

Shelly, boris, and mugman may seem like they have the same expressions, which is true, but they have pretty different reactions. Mugs eyebrows raise and his mouth get smaller, aka he gets more alert. Boris's head goes back, fur stands on end, and his ears fly up, making him bigger almost like a defense mechanism. Shelly stares with small pupils and her shoulders square up, making her feel stuck/frozen.

Warnings: Major blood, cartoon exposed brain
