Messy wip line art under the cut. It’s the aftermath of one of my Relief In Recovery stories.
I like to finish line art of a drawing if I’m posting wips at all but after getting some nasty messages with my test run art that weren’t about the art but the timing made it feel like it, I feel like I need to post more art before I can work up too much fear to post it ever again. Because I intend to make more art and not let ha.te.ma.il shame me or knock me down and it’s the first presentable thing I’ve gotten done since. And doubling down with something more suggestive barely so might help.
It’s only my third time drawing Sp4mton in full so it’s bare bones but on track. More detail will come with color and T3nna will be there when it’s done. It’s after the end of Soothing the Stings of Burning Blades and Strings when Sp4mton is starting to feel better with everything T3nna did to help. But he’s drinking a lot to flush out his UTI and has to pee again. He’s asking if T3nna can help him down from the bed.

First time posting art and first time drawing any of the Relief In Recovery fan.fic.verse character lineup from d3lt4ru.ne. Practice page edition. Something had to use up the rest of the paper I drew my profile pic on. This is not going in any fandom tags because it’s practice and I have improvements to make, but I’m going to be positive about my first try and share even if it’s not perfect because art is messy and there’s no wrong or right way to do it. I’m also experimenting with a new art style and this page is the first time I’ve done that too.
Divided up for better quality
Full page for context blurry because of tumblr and my ceiling light
Personal reflection and positive affirmations under the cut, and still using numbers in names because of the relation to my N$FW stories.
I’m my own worst critic, but I’m challenging myself to look at what I did well and address what I can work on while rambling about the process as I do. Or try to be as kind to myself about my art as I would intend to be when commenting on someone else’s. Because self-degradation doesn’t improve anything!
Everything I drew I first did on the left in pencil, just to get a feel for how I wanted to do it and practice some expressions for some characters, and practice the major parts of their bodies at least once, and then I chose one with modifications to do full body in color. On the sketch side, the body versions of T3nna and S3am were my first attempts and I was happy with them. Sp4mton, I kept adding on to decide how descript I wanted his eyes, and played with getting some emotion into his jaw. The layered additions are messy, but that’s what that side of the page is for. I was really happy with my J3vil sketch, but I broke my rule and went back and changed his eyes once because the way I had his lighter pupils before looked overly creepy. M3ttat0n was fun to sketch but already needed some changes to his body.
S3am was the first I colored, and I was really happy with how they came out after I decided the best blend of colors for their fur. J3vil was a pain managing black on black details and not getting his face too dark to see his eyes. I could improve some things, but I’m okay with that for attempt number one. I’m also happy with the line art details showing well on him even with my ceiling light washing everything out. I used to cheat in my old style and do my line art in a fine tip marker when I went for that look, but I want to challenge myself to use only colored pencils now. I did cheat putting him in mittens to not have to do his fingers, but that works with a headcanon I have for him and I’ve seen others put him in mittens before. The biggest improvement I need to make is deciding how to place his tail so that it makes sense instead of copping out and deciding it’s hidden under his cape.
T3nna was a happy accident. I made a mistake on his line art. A purple colored pencil tip broke and slid so he got a line on his screen that wouldn’t erase all the way. So I made his blush lines that color purple instead of black with a red haze like I planned. And I liked it! I should have been more strategic with the color layering on his pants to place the shine in a way that made more sense, but it did at least make them look shiny. His hands are a weakness, but not anything to get hung up on when hands are a weakness I’ve been working on anyway. Sp4mton worried me in the line art stage, but I got some good feelings once the colors came in. The highlight was figuring out how I want to give him a resting face apart from a true smile without changing his mouth too much. His mouth is smile shaped, but the corners are more relaxed and the hinge lines don’t go straight up to the red dots like they do in the blank glasses sketch where I made him smile big. There’s room for improvement but I’m not unhappy.
M3ttat0n was where I really missed my old line art hack. Getting his hair a saturated black and not a heathered pencil look without losing all the flap detail almost turned impossible. I think it worked out in the end, but I lost some of the pink highlights I tried to put in. His face details were also hard to make show up, and it didn’t help that I drew him small to fit him up in the last bit of space I had. At least that’s a problem I won’t have outside of a practice page. I have the most work to do with him, but I do think I’m at least on track to get him how I want him. And again, this is a practice sheet and meant to be for working out bugs, so I’m trying to show myself the grace I’d show someone else if I were looking here and didn’t know how it was actually supposed to be. His body came out well, and with more room to stretch his legs longer I think I’ve got something.
My profile pic I drew back in January is on here, and the alternate I didn’t use, but might for a separate side blog someday. The purple gh0st in the hat and scarf that tie together into a cape hood for hiding fit me and my blog theme better. And then I played with it on the sketch side with writing stories and theories for fun. The sh4dow gu.y in the cape was also sort of a play on my blog name to suggest being under cover. Sh4dow gu.ys already are stealthy looking, but the cape hides what ears they have. I drew them playing in the rain too because it’s what I felt like doing. Also it was a play on my joke of ch.arl.ie bro.wn.ing and the wah-wah teacher sound effect talk that was done with trombones and might be what a sh4dow gu.y sounds like talking.
