draw everything june 17-22, wrapping these up!

didn't have time to character-ify most of the rest of them but they were a lot of fun regardless, some great poses in this last batch lol.

big thanks to adorkastock & all the models for this challenge! i haven't done much figure drawing in a good long while, a couple weeks in i could really start to feel the benefit of Drawing Actual Real Humans again haha

#i need to gather up some refs of people in the types of clothes i usually draw and do another self-imposed one of these #...for a later time though haha. much art stuff ongoing + coming up in july already!#draw everything june #chrollo and kurapika i guess but i'm not tagging hxh for this one silly doodle lol #that was going to be a “happy new chapters eve” post but as you can see i fell a bit behind 😅#still though i think this is my first time actually finishing one of these daily drawing challenges!#a first time for everything 🎉

it's that time again!!!! happy @hxhbigbang26 to all who celebrate 🎉

this year I unlocked a new rarepair and illustrated this very cute fic of leorio taking shizuku on an arcade date! but what will happen when he discovers her putting her "acquisition service" job skills to use :O

#hxh #hunter x hunter #hxhbb26 #rarepairs my beloved hehehehe #they are both soooooo silly #shizuku murasaki #leorio paladiknight #shizuleo

draw everything june 15

I think this is the only bionicle one I'll do for this challenge since I'm a little worried about straying too far from the reference, but it was fun to try :D the pose reference was like this:

#bionicle #hahli #draw everything june #have been looking for an excuse to draw my hahli and jaller human designs though so maybe i'll be able to squeeze them in #i don't really have human hcs for most of the characters but just those two have a really specific image in my head haha #just can never decide what clothes to dress them in :'D

draw everything june 14 + 16, ft. Surprised Xiao Pai to fill in the empty space

totally slept on xiao pai in my first playthrough but she's actually the best T_T i love how she's "the klutz" but also is pretty grounded and self aware, just Can Not Stop Fucking Things Up (a bit too relatable)

#also love that twin leeks is actually a viable weapon in this game. saved my butt for most of the second(?) story arc #rune factory 4 #rf4 xiao pai #draw everything june #was so close to catching up this past weekend and then lost all motivation to draw :'D #really appreciating the lack of weekend poses though #thanks to that i'm actually not too far behind

draw everything june 11-13

flying is just falling, with style! or something.

#rune factory 4 #rf4 frey #rf4 lest #rf4 margaret #draw everything june #finally a batch post that looks somewhat cohesive haha #holding myself back from spending so much time on rendering/lighting means i can turn more of these into characters which is fun #or maybe it's the other way around lol #i really like how rf4 gives the player character some personality instead of just being “you”#def one of my top farming-type games on account of how lively the characters and dialogue are #especially the relationships between people in the town‚ it's something that can easily fall flat in this type of game i feel #admittedly was a little put off the series when i looked up past games characters #and saw that out of the handful of brown girls two of them (which is like. half of them) are maids #(one of whom used to be queen of the elves and chose to come be a maid in the human world instead? i'm. not sure if that's better or worse)#idk i understand the connotations and history are different in japan vs my country (US)#and like i'm white it's maybe not really my place to judge the quality of the representation here. i just felt weird about it lol #on another note though it was really neat to hear how open the devs were to adjusting the marriage mechanics in 5 after the #localization team brought it up #& apparently in the newest game there is a new lady who is neither a maid nor Wolf Girl Who Speaks Wolf Language so that's cool #...“struggles with anything requiring brains instead of brawn” oh... ok. 😭 she seems cute though #anyway thanks for reading my ted talk again sorry if i said anything out of my lane #i feel like i either write nothing in the tags or a massive essay of every thought i've ever had while drawing the picture lmao #in conclusion. i think rf4 is my fave in the genre for characters #and sv is top for overall aesthetic/feeling of the seasons (especially music + ambient sound)#both also great in terms of gameplay & QoL

draw everything june 10

ft. my blorbo of all time melody again 🩷

#draw everything june #melody hxh #hunter x hunter #for anyone coming here from dej please let me introduce you to my dear beloved melody/senritsu from hunter x hunter #got cursed when her friend played the devil's sonata and now is on a quest to destroy the sheet music so no one else suffers like they did #in order to do this she joined the mafia. as one does. and became buddies with main character who also joined the mafia for revenge purpose #is a side character from early on but returns in the current arc and gets her own little side arc which has been great #i worry cause she's currently in a dangerous situation and hxh does not shy away from killing beloved side characters #however i have reason to believe that whatever happens to her is going to be thematically badass even if it does make my heart hurt #also this is to some extent a limitation of my own experience but #she's like the only fat character i can think of where her being fat truly isn't relevant to the story at all #isn't joked about visually or otherwise and just doesn't really come up at all #(it's implied the curse changed her appearance but never specifies that her size is part of that - i like to think she was always chubby)#hxh like many shounen can be hit and miss when it comes to writing women (much improvement in recent years though) so it's a really #pleasant surprise how senritsu was handled imo #anyway thanks for reading my ted (tag) talk 🙏#hxh #senritsu #i didn't draw her arms with ashitaka-style markings like usual since the reference already had pretty strong lighting #& i wanted to focus on drawing that without further complicating it and hurting my brain lol #i drew the shadows a bit strong and roughly rendered though so it accidentally gives a vaguely similar effect

draw everything june 8

this was how doug's dialogue in rf5 went, right?

#rune factory #rune factory 4 #rf4 doug #draw everything june #don't follow me for rune factory but i'm replaying rf4 and these guys are in my brain again #i love their silly outfits so much. it's good fodder for dej when i'm looking for characters to draw #was going to do a batch of rf-themed ones together but I think for the next one i actually want to do another hxh #so this one gets posted by itself

"KURAPIKA THAT'S A KNIFE!"

"it's fine don't worry about it. see, I'm taking it out now"

"YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TAKE IT OUT--"

draw everything june 5-8 9! (i did them a little out of order so 8 will be in the next batch)

#draw everything june #a little surprised it took me five whole days to shoehorn my beloved melody into one of these #i miss my wife‚ tails #hunter x hunter #hxh #kurapika bill oito melody senritsu #don't feel like tagging characters lol #not sure if i should tag something for the knife stabby wound. hoping it's staged-looking enough not to be too bothersome #but if anyone does filter such things feel free to lmk in the replies + what tag(s) you're blocking

draw everything juuuuuune 1-4

turning these into characters is so much fun but I quickly realized is not sustainable for me to do every day if I actually want to finish this challenge haha (which I do! ...as usual, we'll see how long that lasts 😅), so I decided I'll mix it up between character drawings, and sketches/studies straight from the reference with varying levels of detail

#not tagging fandoms cause i'm embarrassed but the gals on the left are tamarack from our life and xiao pai from rune factory 4 #sorry for the radio silence btw i have suddenly fallen back in love with some of my OCs who alas i cannot post here #and basically all my usual fandom energy is currently being poured into them #still mulling over sharing them tbh because it would soooo much fun to use them for artfight #but i think it's best to keep em close to my chest for now #ideally it'll motivate me to actually finish their thing so i can finally yap about them online someday lmao #draw everything june #also have a couple pieces brewing for fandom projects so there should still be Some Stuff coming in the next couple months!

alluka and nanika relaxing & having fun together for @floatingenthusiast, for FTH2026! thank you so much for participating and for the adorable prompt, it has been too long since I drew these girls <3

#(+ sry for the delay in posting. I got distracted attempting to bake a quiche LOL)#hunter x hunter #hxh #alluka zoldyck #nanika zoldyck #let them hang out and have a nice timeeeeeee 🥹

(nokama released the fish shortly afterwards)

#bionicle #vakama #there there anxiety grandpa. don't be sad the internet loves you #sooo sometimes a stupid idea pops into your brain and you just know you can either take an hour to draw it now #or it will gnaw at your mind. growing more stupid by the day. until you finally give in and inflict it on other people #and that's how this drawing was born #i do so love this fish hat and its infinite variations. gotta be one of my favorite memes

replayed mnogii a few months ago when the bonkles first wormed their way back into my mind and there were so many cute things I forgot about (or never encountered, because I never actually got past ga-koro before lol)

#bionicle #hahli #i never realized her todo list changes after she gets picked for the kolhii team 😭😭 it's soooo cute #this is definitely “taking a few offhand (and kinda-quasi-canon) details and exaggerating it out of proportion” but #i'm kind of entertaining a headcanon of her being like. The Least Important Person In Ga-Koro before everything starts happening #not even flax maker but Assistant flax maker #like most other characters probably wouldn't even see it that way but maybe she thinks of herself like that a little #then Plot Events start happening. and once in a while she pauses and is like wait what happened. a month ago i was sleeping until noon #wandering the village ostensibly to gather supplies for amaya. daydreaming about being somewhere else #also i forgot how delightful taipu is. strong of arm pure of heart dumb of ass #i was a little sad cause you can mess with him by calling him hafu #but you can't do the same to hafu who actually deserves it. i wanted to bully hafu soooooo bad

belated happy witch hat atelier ✨

#seeing the episodes and the overwhelming excitement and positivity in the tags has restored my whimsy #i like the op and ed animations. tetia's jump into the book is so funny idk why but it makes my brain think she's blasting off into orbit #my personal wild hope is that they rotate the op+ed often and get real weird and artsy with them #i liked that the ed already had a little bit of a different style!#i feel like i've seen several shows lately mix it up a bit with the animation or art style especially in the endings #and i think it'd be extra fun with the show About art to play around with that a bunch #witch hat atelier #coco wha #tetia wha #gif -

scavengers show good.......

(silly/spoilery text version under the cut)

#scavengers reign #it was definitely out of my comfort zone in terms of like. Lots of gore lol #but soooo worth for the animation + art style alone #& this is probably a sign i don't watch enough adult animation (or animation in general?) but just....#acting/dialogue that sounds like normal people #characters that look like normal humans. bless #(some spoilers in further tags just in case) ->#holding out hope for second season so i can know more about MIA #seemed like she was having a pretty bad time last we saw her (very understandable given the circumstances lol)#some situations can't be salvaged even by the presence of a hot girl who went on a entire narrative journey to return to you 😔#and no sign of her in the end scene or s2 pitch teaser #i'm curious if it was intentional or just there were other more important things they wanted to show #maybe azi being by herself on the observation deck was supposed to imply something but #to my mind it's just like of course. she's an introvert #she may have fought her way through to the conviction that love and community are worth it #but also you just know an hour into “ok everyone's awake time to build a functional settlement with these 30 random people” she was like #i need a break. or a drink. or both

been seeing a lot of snark about people liking orufrey too much lately, so... have a little more orufrey. for balance or something ;) ❤️

(in all seriousness, I want to take a second to highlight a couple tumblr settings that can prove useful in navigating a growing fandom!

Filtered Tags: hides any post with a given tag (has to match exactly)

Filtered Post Content: will hide a post if the filtered word/phrase appears anywhere inside it (...except in the tags. which can be a little annoying)

It's not perfect, but it is a whole lot more likely to improve your experience than complaining about strangers on the internet is one tool to help see fewer things that bother you 🙂)

simplified for demonstration purposes - my real filter list is wayyyyy longer ;)

also don't be afraid to unfollow or block anyone for any reason and that absolutely includes me. peace and love on tunglr dot com

#witch hat atelier #orufrey #trying to keep it lighthearted but I was *very* close to vowing to never draw anything but yaoi slop for this fandom again lol #SORRY TO BE A BUMMER i wanted to get my dumb venting out of the way before the anime airs #it takes a lot to make me act out of spite but every time i manage to calm myself down i see Yet Another of these posts :')#oh but also i'm almost done with some doodles i'm really excited about for a different show I just watched #great adult animation with canon (albeit not main focus) sapphic romance. so look out for that Soon™ as a palate cleanser ❤️#but ok I've been typing & deleting the same rant for months I just gotta air it out i think #(caution: a bit of fandom salt ahead. promise promise I will shut up about this after 🙏)#folks if a specific ship is making you mad that is the EASIEST possible thing to filter out of your tumblr experience #if someone knows what i can filter to stop seeing people being snippy about...making stuff I like and putting it online for free #then please share lmao #this isn't directed at any specific post btw I've seen at least three of them in the witch hat tag in the past week alone lol #idk do folks really think ship posts are replacing whatever content you wanted to see instead?#speaking as someone who has drawn both orufrey & gen/other characters #(but heavier on the orufrey so yeah these types of complaints are about People Like Me)#*none* of that would've ever existed if that one “your magic is so kind” panel didn't catch my brain in a chokehold five years ago #(“well your gen content sucks anyway” yea I know lol but it's not like me making shitty posts takes space away from anyone else?)#if the issue is that fans gravitate to romance in general - i suspect that's been happening for as long as humans have had stories lol #if you think this is a fundamental problem with humans (hey i won't rule it out) then that's a larger conversation than fandom shipping #and idk i don't think shitting on people for making hobby fanworks of specific characters is constructive #people like what they like. if we want them to focus on something else - how do we motivate them to do that?#be really condescending? yell at them online? :)#i'd argue it's not a zero sum game and that WHA is a fantastic example of a shipping “carrot” drawing more ppl to a great story about #accessibility and art and technology and power and (ok if you're reading this you don't need me to tell you why witch hat is good)#there's this constant implication that more shipping (or whatever) leads to less attention on the other parts of the story #and not *more* than there otherwise would have been if these fans weren't here enjoying and sharing the story at all #certainly my personal experience is that it gets me to spend more time thinking about a story and all the other characters and themes in it #(and if the problem is the proportion of content - again: use those funky lil ship names to your advantage and curate your experience)#ok as promised I shut up now sorry for the monster wall o' text 🙏

was drawing jaller and suddenly had an epiphany re: the "haven't I drawn this very specific stylized shape somewhere before??" that I hadn't realized was nagging at the back of my mind

#bionicle #i don't have an aprilfool but this was in my drafts and was silly #“is it weird that this mask kind of makes me think of an owl?” (15 minutes later) WAIT A SECOND #i'm not sure if it makes sense the way I drew it but the way the little tuft/flap things sit over the head and eyebrows #just feels like Same Shape

hahli and her glorious wide shoulders because I was having some Big Feelings about Milly's redesign in stargaze for Absolutely No Reason Whatsoever 😊💙

#bionicle #hahli #jaller #how could they make milly small 😭#at least she's still kind of tall but where did her shoulders go??#it's ok at least i have 90s milly in my heart and my dear hahli mahri on my desk #Anyway on a topic that's actually relevant to this drawing lol #i'm hoping to do something for the bonkles ship week but haven't had any ideas yet :')#as romance brained as i am i'm pretty bad at coming up with ideas for overt ship art when i try #brain is just like idk have you considered... characters napping in close proximity to each other? that's all i got #hmm post not appearing in tags. did i say a word tumblr didn't like. let us experiment #edit: have discovered the word and all i have to say is lmao (it was b o o b)
