Rainy Day WIP

Or.

Come see me strugle on video!

Like with the Ian Piece from the other day, here's the process video. This one is interesting cause I strugled a bit more while making this one. There's even a doddleing section in the beggining with me Trying to figure out the composition.

Or you can see the 30 seconds abridged version with less strugling attached down below. That one makes me look like a genius! lol

Rainy Day

I guess it's one of those doing nothing kind of days... 

And I guess Zara agrees.

…

There's not really a lot to say “canon wise” about this piece.

Maybe that it sort of retcons Zara’s department. See, I’ve established before that Zara, Diana and sometimes Lil’s department is located in a green building, but I needed the buildi...

The Teacher

Yes, Two in a day...

Idk… Felt like drawing Tina. I just think she’s neat.

It was going to be a black and white sketch but I know no self control lol.

Tought of an outfit I liked for her

DunDunDun DUN Dun

Hey! Would you look at that, It's Lil!

I played around a bit with Lil’s design on this one. In the pool comic I drew the fur on the sides of her head gown down as a way of suggesting she was wet but I kind of liked how it looked and I sort of repeated that here. I don't feel like fully changing her design but I think it could be like a thing she does from time to time. Maybe for concerts like Zara using makeup when singing (And when I remember)

She also see...

Our Feature Presentation.

Edit: Fixd the lighting on some characters

Or

“Get our new cheese popcorn with nachos and a large kool aid combo down at the lobby!”

Or.

Something, something, cult film. 

Well, Ian knew about this one. There is some word around about a mysterious lost director’s cut for La Notte Dentata. An obscure 80s Italian horror film considered by the many who have actually seen it to be, and I quote, “fine, I g...

Guitar WIP

Hey there! Sorry I haven't posted a lot lately here, I've been stuck with work and life, and then with commissions so I haven't really been able to finish a personal piece.

Actually I had some free time on monday for that but It's something of a big Whisperers piece that somehow ended up turning into 2 pieces (Classic me) at least so It'll take me a bit to actually finish.

But in the meantime here's a small Wip teaser of another big project I started at the beggining of the year a...

Let's not talk about it

Or

“Well, I've told you about RJ’s ex, now let's talk about Davo’s”

Or

Oh boy! Is it time for lore? I think it is! 

I, on a couple of occasions before like Twitter AMAs and such, had mentioned Davo being in another band before The Worn Down Children.

In highschool Davo played drums for like 6 months for this local band whose drummer had left to go to rehab after his 4th overdose. 

...

Concert meme

Quick Thing.

I think this is a comment on Zara being an over-dynamic performer. 

I wanted to do one of these memes as soon as I saw them but I was busy with one thing and then another thing, and then the original post disappeared... Anyway…

The thing I liked is that having RJ and Zara on character in the picture would be an inversion of the dynamic. With RJ being a stoic chill guy and Zara being overactive on stage. IDK. 

I think RJ was supposed to record t...

Movie Night (WIP)

Oh, One of the benefits of Procreate that I haven't used as I could is the habitability of recording the process. So here's me making this piece.

Movie Night

And I think it's a horror film.

I haven't really expanded on Ian's story, and there's not really a reason for that, I just haven't. But here's this.

Ian moved into town from the outskirts of the city after highschool. He was sharing a department with a friend until that friend had to move in with his new wife before they had their kid.

After having a number of short lasting jobs, he landed one at the library where he worked for a couple of we...

Band On The Run

Or.

"If you're in a rock band and you're not getting banned from hotels, are you really on a rock band?"

Or the pool episode.

Well The story so far. The Worn Down Children got a gig at a small festival by the beach. Last time they did that they spent too much and this time they were running a bit low on cash so they stayed at a more or less cheap hotel that lets you camp in the garden for less and Take tagged along this time cause she had come up with a pla...

Rain Outside

Something of an older piece.

RJ and Zara having some quiet time on a rainy night at RJ’s place so they can be alone. But the record player is Zara's. She left it there some time ago but she still uses it often anyway.

I haven't decided, but probably during the time these two were trying to keep their thing a secret. Diana and Lil know Zara is going on a date but not necessarily with who, but they have suspicions, RJ is in his own place anyway so he doesn't ...

The Camp

Or. 


“Hey Diana, Check this out! Someone forgot their water gun! (Shoots)”


And then.


“Come back here!” After she gets a hold of the gun. 


And also


“ZZZZZZZ”


Because they're sleeping.


It's not even 8:am and those three are already making a fuzz. But don't worry, they're all having fun.


Here's a sort of follow up to the roast piece from some months ago where you can get a better view of...

Bluey Reanimated

Oh, also. I participate on the Bluey reanimated collab being organized by Saberspark and others, and I was going to publish my scene when the whole thing is completed but I tought I could show it here first.

Felt like I could use the opportunity to avoind getting rusty on my animation skills and while sadly all available scene were very short, I managed to get one with 5 characters. 2024-04-26 20:34:07 +0000 UTC View Post

Only now while posting this I notice I may have gotten carried away with the "alts"

Let’s check out how things are going in the Davo and Tony department on this chill April 20th afternoon… Oh boy…

 What better way to spend the afternoon than for Davo to count the pins that hold life itself together and for Tony to imagine a smiley face that also frowns 2024-04-21 00:20:23 +0000 UTC View Post

Hold 🔳 to run

Press X


Or.


“The abandoned St. Hugo hospital where lately the dead have been becoming sick”


Or.


“An old lady sold me a game that used to belong to her late “roommate”’s deceased grandson and there's a ghost there or something…”


I had had the idea of a horror game themed piece for a while now, I had tried some stuff but had left it just as wips. But I recently saw 2024-04-18 06:13:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Low Poly Nicole

Well, I haven't posted a WIP in a bit so have a Fake Low Poly Nicole head for funsies. Here I was mainly trying to figure out if it was possible. Turns out it was kinda... Good enough at least

Boardwalk

Hey there, boys and girls! It's me, Katnay, and I just came back from “The Zone™”

I think I had a moment there where every brush stroke was right at the first attempt.

I wanted to participate in the “Bikini + Big Pantz + Your OC!” challenge. And at first it was going to be a simple thing, no background, minimal shading. But you know good ol...

Keep It Dark

Or

"Breaking the Band's Code: Bears and Birds biggest secrets finally revealed"

So yeah. They actually thought they were being sneaky. How silly is that?

There are 2 versions of page 2 because I noticed a dialogue had double meaning by accident. I corrected it as if Diana had noticed too, but now I'm not sure which one I like more.


I've been naming these comics as songs, and for this one I came up with a bunch of songs about “Secret Love” or stuff...

Lil

Here's Lil and, Huh... Would you look at that. It's seems it's actually over...

I finally finished this series. Only 10 days short of a year later or something lol

Unless I later decide to keep going but for the moment Here it is!

The Worndown Children?

How's this for an April's fool thing but not actually?

See, some time ago I drew the band as humans for April's fools, it was a dumb last minute low effort thing I did for fun, and then later I did it again with the whisperers for the Mexican April's fool on December 28th.


And for this year I had thought that I ...

Sunday 6:13 am

Diana pauses on her way home to have some breakfast cause she has only been eating snacks since yesterday. They didn't have anything else at the party.

There's some different explanations for this one, one’s that we've all been in a party that ends up so late that you just wait there for a bit for the day of light to go back home. And that's probably what she did.

Originally this wasn't going to be a Diana piece, but I used her as a placeholder character for the sk...

Squats

Actually it was 23, thank you very much…

You know… One of the ways I’ve been thinking about oc lore lately is listing out my character by how much they like or can do things. Diana knows how to cook, Zara can’t do laundry. 

And If you ask me about the bandmates athleticism I’d list them Davo first who goes to the gym at least once a week, he likes to take his shirt off during shows, then RJ though he’s stronger, Diana and Zara who try to be in shape and...

The dress

Or.

"What do you mean using the drying machine isn't the same as dry cleaning??"

My hand slipped and this happened…

I wanted to participate in this new art trend but I definitely overdid the assignment this time.

I had some problems finding the pose for this one and after many doodles I got a sense that Zara would totally love this dress.

So I thought I could use more than one pose and with that give the piece a bit of a narrative. About the time Zara got a fan...

Roast

And you call that a roast?! This is a Roast!! This...! What I am doing right now to you!! I wasn't sure if it was clear... 

Or.

"And you call that a roast?! This is a Roast!! This...! What I am doing right now to your cooking skills!!... I wasn't sure if it was clear...

Still, thank you for the food..."

Nah...

Edit: Fixed the lighting around the car. 

Added a super old link I found

Well, even if he's not going to eat them, vegetarian and...

¡¡Vamos a ser más fuertes!!

Or.

"El mono ese de los pelos parados"

Hardly news by no but yesterday news broke about the passing away of Dragon Ball’s Author Akira Toriyama.

I felt like drawing this. I don’t remember the exact moment I discovered Dragon Ball. Me being Mexican after all, it’s one of those things that was always there.

¡¡Vamos a ser más fuertes!!

A menudo me encuentro pensando en el final de Dragon Ball Z. El original con Goku y Uub gritando eso. No por otra razón m�...

Zarita

The Zara

Once again I was following a vague vibe I felt.

But some time ago actually. This one is one of those I can't believe I never posted Kind of pics.

I get the feeling this one is part of the Band's journeys series. Like they're visiting some kind of fancy historic place or something.

RJ

Hah!!! I bet you thought I'd never finish this series of pictures huh?!

Well me too but just for a moment.

I’ve actually been meaning to get back to it for a while but a ton of things happened. But I had some time and here it is!!

Not the reason for this to have taken so much but a bit of a problem I ran with is that I made an interesting discovery.

95% of male models have their hands on their pockets in their pictures. And that’s what I had been using as reference...

Lily & Lil

Just a drawing of Lil. I was trying to catch a vibe I had.

I now it’s hardly noticeable but I was experimenting with some things with this one.

Actually some of those experiments didn’t worked so that’s why they’re not noticeable lol.

I add an album cover edit cause that’s an impression it gives me.

Like a “While my guitar gently weeps” cover album cover or something. Which would be endlessly ironic considering she’s holding a base in the picture.

Noise

I'm just hoping this comic about not understanding is understandable. Did it worked?

I came up with this comic last time I went out with my friends. The place was pretty loud and I've been experimenting with “sound” in comics a bit lately. So I wondered if there was a way to portray this specific experience.

For the texts I tried to make, it is not impossible to read them but kind of hard, and if you make the effort you'll realize their conversation makes no sense, they keep m...
