Decided to make a monstrosity today. Was just feeling like putting stuff where it doesn’t belong.

I’m honestly getting so tired of this. I’m still trying to stick with it for the sake of building habits. But I can’t wait to get back to mainly digital art and having the time and brainspace for studies.

I was running out of time so I didn’t really have the opportunity to do the rest of the body. Honestly might be for the best because I actually haven’t practiced drawing full women’s bodies yet. But yeah, here’s a drawing of a good streamer friend of mine.

Was gonna do a full Flat Stanley sorta deal but then I realized “oh it’s 11:00 and I only have this one attempt using a pen. Regular paper it is then.” Didn’t wanna just do a sheet of paper though.

Haven’t done a lip bite before so that was definitely new. Thumb needs work and hand proportions as a whole but overall I’m seeing some improvement.

For this one I’d thought I’d do a little drawing of Rocky saving Grace. Not totally the same as how he moved him. I had also done this without looking up Rocky for reference beforehand. Wasn’t sure if I got the smoke right either. Also I think Ryan is a little more caked up than that but is whatevs

Was thinking of making some type of shadow creature for this one. The seam on the pants looks a little weird. Also I thought it would be neat to minimize shadows on the body seeing as how technically he comes from shadows, so he can’t cast one.

So because I haven’t drawn animals and for sure was not gonna do that today I went with a battering ram. I do wish I didn’t make the guy on the left as stiff. Also there’s nothing else on the right, so we’re not gonna talk about it.

Gotta remember inktober is just about building the habit of drawing for me. Trying to keep motivated to do it for all the days. Even if what I make ends up making me wanna burn the whole sketchbook.

Oh boy is there more panic in this than just what I intended to draw. 15 minutes before the day is up and I rushed this so much. Was trying to draw some inspiration from the most recent Hulk transformation scene. Then I realized I have no fucking clue what Mark Ruffalo’s hair is.

So this is why we don’t start drawing with just the neck first I guess. Also was gonna go for a muscular build with a smaller head. Today I learned the necks cannot be as long as I make them for the usual body type.

Newest character, he has escaped the doodle zone.

Today’s Inktober challenge definitely came out very bad for a very large number of reasons. Still posting so I can come back later down the line and see my improvement.

Any fans of Rango here? Shadows on the prickles didn’t quite turn out as well as I had hoped.

I really need to work on my cross hatching for shading. Also I did goof up the left arm but what can you do when you mess up with pen.

Was super sleepy today. Tried to get the moss pattern down as best as I could.

Trying to commit fully to inktober. This time on paper. Hopefully committing to this will help me build better drawing habits and generally become a better artist. Was trying to do bits of apple around the orange’s face but I feel like they look more like weird pimples.

Been trying not to focus super hard on making great art so I don’t take 2 weeks to finish a sketch. Though I am still trying to take notes on what I do wrong and am trying to learn new things. Also sharing this random dude who popped into my head.

You ever just lose your comb and decide “a plastic fork will suffice”?

What’s the meaning of life if not to binge Power Rangers and play Warframe with your closest friend for every hour you can spare?

My body dares to try and prevent me from continuing to pursue art? It shall not prevail, I will deal with it and keep drawing.

Today's focus for art studies, shoulders. Been also trying to do different angles. Been making additions to the second one for days, mostly seeing if I can learn more about what I can put on next. I figured I'd share progress even if it's atrocious.

The collection expands to a grand total of 13 so far

Got an art book to do some studying. Thought it would help with both anatomy and posing. Tis only the latter. However, I’m still seeing if I can retain things anyways.

Next merman concept is done. The Sea Dragon. There’s a lot of stuff that went wrong towards the beginning. Some was fixed and some will be kept in mind for the next piece.

Should I leave work to fix my art? (The anatomy is wrong and it won’t stop bothering me)

I think the creative part of my brain is powered specifically by Taco Bell and Mountain Dew Baja Blast

I haven’t been able to think of a 3D printer project for a bit. Then this blessed my feed today.

Just made this account so I'm gonna dump off all of the art I can find. Can you tell which ones are from closer to when I started drawing? lol
