I haven't made an expression sheet this big since Omegafolf's in July, or Fenrir Black's in June, depending on how you define it. It was nice to do one of these again. :3

For the first time since I started doing these expression sheets five years ago, I'm adding the white Telegram sticker outline to the expression sheet itself! I'm surprised I didn't do this before since it really helps the illustrations pop, so be on the lookout for me to do this more in the future I guess. :3

Whew, this is the first expression sheet I've made since early September! I was a bit overdue. :p
The first image is what I sent to the commissioner and got approved! The second image has alternate artwork for hyper, winking, and tired. It's what those expressions looked like before I redrew them the next day figuring I could improve them. :p
2021-12-05 23:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostSuggest whatever you want! If your idea includes your own characters, be sure to drop a reference image link along with your comment. :3
Since I only got a couple of suggestions last month, I'm going to open this one up to my Comic Supporter patrons as well!

This was suggested by Andy S for October 2021's Patreon thank you image! :3

Thank yooOOOooOOOooo to all my Patreon supporters for October 2021, and please welcome my newest supporters who joined us in October - Erik Otterson and Stymie! Thank you so much! <3
This month's thank you image was suggested by Andy S on Patreon! I instantly had a pose in mind once I read his idea, so I had to go for it. =P
I'm going to try to catch up in the next week or two with November's thank you image!

This was a birthday gift that I did for Kingdomblade. He's really into Digimon and we've been watching the third season together, so... :3

Once again, this character was suggested to be drawn by Vincent Atrata in November's suggestion box! I thought adding a splash of color would liven up the sketch a lot, and I was right. :3

Vincent Atrata suggested in November's suggestion box that I draw either Luca or Alberto from new Pixar film, Luca! I thought I'd do best drawing Alberto, so... here you go! I initially forgot to add the fins on the forearms and legs though as you can see, lol.
I'll have the full-res up in an hour. :3

Here's the second set of three sketches! I've also included the combined page and an alternate sketch I abandoned. I thought a sad sketch would round out the set better than a drunk one. xp
2021-12-01 23:00:05 +0000 UTC View Post
Part two with three more sketches is coming up tomorrow. These were intended to be exploratory drawings for a new character of this. :3
Also this character has a unique marking on his sternum - it's a scar from heart surgery! I've never done a surgical scar on a character before, but that's changed now. :p

Whoops, I forgot to schedule this post too. Sorry! I'll have another post shortly to make up for the lack of one yesterday.
The alternate artwork here is the fact you can see "punished Nes" underneath all the glow, unlike in the public comic post. Yes, I did indeed draw him entirely before covering him up entirely, haha. I had to make sure I got the pose exactly right. :3
There's also no thumbnail for this page! It was an extension off an existing one I had.

I'm sorry again for the delay with new Little Runt pages! As I mentioned in a recent post, I've been (ironically) procrastinating. I've been a little too precious with making new pages and wanting them to turn out perfect. I'm working through taking care of that and being more willing to dive into things like this. x3
2021-11-29 05:28:24 +0000 UTC View PostAs a birthday gift to myself, I'm going to be taking the entire month of December off as a holiday!
All that means is that I won't be doing commission work. However, I'll still be making art for myself (because I love making art), so my Patreon will still be active. :3
This is going to be my first proper holiday since this time in 2019 (before, during, and after I went to MFF), so I'm excited!
Cheers! <3

I was originally planning to do this with afternoon lighting (see my WIP post from yesterday), but I decided doing a late afternoon/early evening lighting would look a little more interesting. :3

This was more challenging than it looks to do. Drawing a character is one thing, but drawing multiple characters and keeping them all proportioned properly to each other is mighty annoying. ^^;
There's a slight alternate for this one - the bunny was originally drawn chubbier (first image), but was revised to have a slimmer profile in the second image. :3

This was drawn very small at 224x224 pixels because Twitch emotes are 112x112, 56x56, and 28x28 in size! It forces me to keep things simple.
2021-11-24 00:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post
Here are the WIPs for the new Twitch emote! Sorry I didn't post this sooner - I neglected to save the WIPs out. ^^;
Originally the mouth was going to be closed and this was going to be a generic glaring emote, but I thought opening the mouth and making the reaction "bigger" would make for a better emote. :p

I'm not sure if this looks better with or without the sweatdrops, so here's both heh. What's he nervous about? Hmmm...
This sketch was made to practice drawing Tem's face/head at an unfamiliar angle! And to make up for the lack of a post yesterday heh. I have one scheduled for tonight finally, at least! And a commission got approved today as well. :D
2021-11-22 17:29:35 +0000 UTC View Post
I've relapsed into procrastinating a bunch lately (mostly out of fear of making mistakes or performing badly), so I drew Tem judging me for it. :p
I'm slowly working on taking a more fearless approach to everything, including art. This is also why Little Runt is overdue again - sorry! I'm going to try to jump into sketching the next page(s) sometime this week.

This pose was challenging because I wanted to kind of squeeze Nes's body vertically as he stretched to give more "power" behind it, but doing so also made him appear way too slim (when he's supposed to be muscular and athletic). While this turned out good, my gut feeling is telling me there's a ton of potential for improvement that I can only unlock with a bunch of anatomy/posing practice, so maybe I'll try this again in the future!
2021-11-19 23:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post
Sorry for the lack of a post yesterday! Here's a sketch I did just now to make up for it heh. I'll have the full-res up tonight to hit my quota again.
I had some positive feedback the last time I did a slideshow post like this showing how I build up my sketches, so I'll try to do them more often!

Sorry, I gotta dip back into my archive again for a moment while I finish some commissions! Since my birthday is in one week, I figured it was appropriate to share this. :3
This was originally posted on November 24th, 2017!
There won't be a full-res art post for this one because the full-res is small and is what was posted publicly. ^^;

2021-11-17 01:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostI got a few spooky ideas for last month's post, so I'm going to check in with those too. :3
Keep ideas to one character (and one of my characters) due to space limitations!
2021-11-16 23:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post
The two characters belong to @Ash_and_Cinder and @Strannik_Wolf respectively on Twitter!
Interior color design is something that's really hard for me to do for some reason. I may need to do some studies. I think this one turned out pretty well in the end, though!

Phew! This commission was originally ordered back on July 5th, 2020, but due to my massive waiting list and some email mix-ups, we weren't able to get to this until this week, just over sixteen months later. ^^;
But hey, better late than never!
