Finally drew again after a long time. Been busy with a lot of stuff lately; Prepping for the school year, having annual events in our nation, being accepted to an academy to policy benefits, etc… But finally had some downtime- nah i’m kidding I was procrastinating. But. At least i’m drawing more lately :)

I was scrolling through tumblr for a bit and found the John Loves You Au by @zzoupz and other contributors, especially for john’s design when he reveals to be greater than a human being. I’m a native and a hunter; seeing the design for the antlers just made me want to draw him. You don’t know how much I held myself back from drawing it out while in the academy.

Some details ab it:

- White tail deer antlers since Connecticut is one of their native homes.

- If you notice (TW for OCD peoples✌️) John isn’t centered, neither is the antlers, or even his hands/stance. I wanted to capture how he looks (somewhat) stable in his appearance than compared to his mindset in his upbringing and overall the world he sees from his POV.

- Wanted to add the border to signify how you enter a battle scene in the original FAItH game and especially how the opponent levels up mid game after the first round.

I finished that thing’s drawing. I’m still trying to work on my art style so most of these drawings are somewhat studies. But I like how this one came out overall. I’ve gotta shut up now because i’m in a movie 🫢

Faith is taking over my willpower. I hate when that urge to draw hits just as you’re going to sleep (3/24/26).

I’m aliveee, Stayed up a good night before full day of testing.. good mix 🥸. But anyways, I kinda had the idea of redoing or doing another John drawing for a little (maybe do a Gary or Garcia later on who knows 🤷). But this was kinda a study into my art-style since I’ve been drawing realism, cultural stuff, and creatures for so long. Not necessarily characters of media. I’m so happy to get back on the topic of expressing my love of media in the future with this acc though! Okay, I’ll stop yapping now 🤗

I lied when I said I didn’t know how to develop a sketch into a full drawing 🥸 But yeah.

This is my first digital drawing attempt in a long while where I drew from media I liked. I’m planning to do more like this in the future so keep a heads up. Please, i’m hoping for feedback because I feel like it’s off somehow. But I hope ya’ll enjoy this <3
