LOL WHAT IS IT ABOUT HHUAAUHG THAT COMPELS EVERYONE... I answered it here! tread with caution, it IS mildly nsfw

oom stands for Out Of Mind. There's this really lovely lyric comic by @kitsoa and it was just begging to be made into a video. here's a wip of it! I'm learning so many things in Da Vinci Resolve to make it cool...

I don't want this getting passed around like a blunt in the birdmen circles yet though so I'm making it non-rebloggable. stay hyped but don't expect anything lol. I'm feeling kind of intimidated at the thought of editing the chorus...

GODDDD I'M SO EMBARRASSED ABOUT KAMODA KISSY FOR A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT REASON. IT FEELS LIKE SUCH A DISHONEST BAIT YOU KNOW

LIKE KAMODA DOESN'T EVEN EXIST ON THE CANVAS YET... SORRY ABOUT THIS...

lol the last one was a meme that I never finished drawing lol

HI RAINY!!! rainy my good friend <3 <3 <3

what’s the most fun and the least fun parts about your process

OH BOY.

So I'm someone more motivated by the prospect of the final product than I am the actual process of creating it (sorry... I don't like drawing digitally but it's even harder to draw traditionally if I intend on posting it online so the fun in the process was traded in for convenience...)

The most fun part I think is sketching! Creating compositions, nailing down anatomy, that stuff! You're a fellow artist so I think you can understand— there's a moment where the lines you draw have life breathed into them, and it stops being a collection of lines and starts being the thing you're trying to make. My motivation typically doesn't last very long after my drawing comes alive but I love that part of creating— making something out of nothing!!

Now, making that something good is a whole other story...

The least fun part of my process is probably doing the linework. I'm getting better at linework, but it's such a slog... it's such slow going... I feel like I'm going insane sometimes when I do it. The final lines don't even look that much more different from the clean sketch!

Tied with linework— if I don't have linework and I'm going directly into a painting without a reference, getting down the value structure can be really frustrating for me sometimes. Most times, actually. I think my standards for painting are pretty high because of the figure painting class I took, so it takes quite a long time for me to be satisfied with a painting.

AWWW BESTIEEEE ILY <3
