Instead of doing the prompts I’ve been trying to worldbuild this year

Day12 - Dragon

>>4156530
Day 12 - chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool

>>4156594
>art book
An art book would be awesome, that’s a pipe dream of mine

>>4156763
>Can you draw anything else as well as you draw that character?
I think I’m just about done drawing this fembot. I’ve never drawn the same thing 15 times before. I guess repetition matters.

>>4158017
>mfw I've been waiting for Day 12
Man, even I don't know what I should go with, I have a lot of ideas with this. Maybe a character

>>4158358

My Wife´s insta btw https://www.instagram.com/medouka/

Fell behind a bit on this prompt. An old ice mage OC I've never found a chance to use.

>>4158610

Yea, I definitely went overboard with the dragon's values on this one. Think the paper I'm using might be too porous to really go heavy on the penciling. Hopefully though the idea is still somewhat readable

lil dragon

Day 13 - Ash

"All sorts of suspicious stuff went down at that factory, I'm glad it got burnt down."

> Twitter
https://twitter.com/KingOfSeagulls

Couple fire-based ones back to back (well, dragon typically involves fire). I enjoy using the red-orange-yellow tones so I aint complaining.

>>4157108
Day 12 - Half dragon and his pet.

Forgot to do the dragon today, fuck it, will do it tomorrow

>>4158735
You're not the only one late friend, I came down with a fever and couldn't work for long enough to finish my dragon. I'm going to rest up and do 2 tomorrow, but my streak is now broken

Oh well. I worked on this less than I wanted to.

>>4158014
Here's today's work. I'll try to finish one more tonight, but it's not very likely, honestly.

>>4158848
And here's yesterday's for context. I'm not following the prompt list, I'm doing a story I've been playing around with for a while. Also, sorry for the shitty pic of today's piece. Will take a better one later.

Day 11, Dragon!
>>4158617
Gosh, I love this anon, the rendering and the faerie-like wings on the dragon.

>>4158868
Your work just astounds me every time anon, good shit

>>4158868
Day 12, sorry!

>>4158871
Thank you so much anon, that means a lot

digital inking is not true inking

>>4158868
im often against digital inktober, but this is fucking amazing and with pieces like this i cant do anything else than congratulate you, anon.

>>4157456
Day 12

Day 12 wanted to do something different this time

>>4157559

kinda messed the far leg up but heres my dragon from yesterday

>>4156274

I redid day 10 for Pattern, here is the Eclipse from Berserk.

>>4159000
Day 11.- Snow. Jon Snow from GoT, something easy.

ASH

Oh shit, I forgot to post yesterday!

Day 11: Snow.
Quite like this one.

>>4158617
VERY cool textures. But your fundies are lagging behind your rendering.

>>4158868
Oh shit nigga what the fuck. 10/10

>>4158907
>>4158916
Would watch both movies.

>>4159000
Did you come up with the composition? Cause it looks top-notch. Top 2 rows of faces didn't blend well with the rest, which has more shadows.

>>4159073
I saw this coming,..

>>4158840
This is a cool design. I like the plating around its head

>>4159143
Also forgot to quote Day 10: >>4156235

Day 12.
Skipped the prompt cause making this has been on my backlog for a while.
There's also a short bio for the three characters, but I won't spam the thread with 4 pics or walltexts. You can read them here if you want to:

I'm guessing all the Blizzardpostin is on the previous thread

>>4158099
Day 12: Ash

Donny was a good bowler and a good man

>>4159143
Really really lovely, I love these characters of yours anon!

>>4158450
Day 13 - marker melee

>>4159554
i fucking love your art

>>4157398
Day 12: Dragon. Once upon a time there appeared in our country a huge thing called Khodumodumo. It swallowed every living creature that came in its way. At last it came into a valley of villages; it went to one after another, and started to swallow the people and animals.

>>4159573
This design is fantastic anon, genuinely creeps me out.

Day 11,

Catching up, wished this one conveyed snow a bit more.

>>4158358
Day 13 - Ash

A memorial to my wife´s first Pet, a Madagascar-Taggecko named Maxi. she was cremated, therefore..."Ash"

>>4157012
day 12, teenage frog
I'm seriously starting to lose the motivation bros, this sticky meme was a horrible fuckin idea

>>4159784
day 13, zombie frog
whenever I try drawing something more elaborate I either run out of space halfway through or just end up with a shitload of tangents that flatten the whole fuckin piece

>>4159784
>I'm seriously starting to lose the motivation bros
Listen here. I like your frogs. I've looked at all of them. You're practicing making charming drawings in a very limited space for an entire month, that will definitely have benefits in the long run. When you're done you can stick them in a scrap book or something and have a neat little project under your belt. So keep doing them. Believe in the me that believes in your frogs

>>4159817
thanks anon, I really needed that, I swear I'll finish this stupid bullshit and make you proud

>>4159830
That's the spirit

>>4159573
Day 13: Ash. In the last village was a woman who happened to be sitting near an ash heap. She saw the monster coming, smeared herself all over with ashes, and crouched. Khodumodumo came and looked, but smeared with ashes and keeping quite still, it took her for a stone.

>>4159784

Keep it up anon, I love your frogs!

Day 13: Ash
>>4159858
God I love this, I love the story accompanying it and the design of the monster, the Ukiyo-e esque style is incredible

>>4159666
>>4159903
Thanks friends. I try my hand at telling a story like I see some of you do

>>4159903
Holy shit that's awesome

Really cool drawings Bros, any of you want to share instas or something so i can follow you?

Day 13
Doing okay so far this year

>>4159857
Cute. Simple but effective

>>4159903
Nice flow. You are very consistent with those detailed creature faces and movement. It seems to me very versatile. I would expect you to do well at any real or imagined creature. This highlights to me the importance of studying animals

>>4159681

Day 12, I like how this one turned out, minus the feet.

>>4158124
Day 13.

Didn't realize we had a thread for this!

I like how my drawings are coming out, but my inkings usually look too busy. Pic related. Any tips?

>>4160008
Really cool anon, are you on Instagram?

>>4160008
So good. You should come to the thread more often.
>inkings usually look too busy
It's kinda hard to make out some of the forms. You could maybe add more contrast and shadows to set your characters apart.

>>4158059
The Keyway Substrate 13: Selene’s military forces are ineffective as the EYE operative proceeds steadily towards Mally.

>>4160032
Thanks anon, I still don't have instagram, but I just created a twitter account.

Is instagram better?

>>4160045
Thanks! I'll dump the other ones I did soon.

>You could maybe add more contrast and shadows to set your characters apart.
Yeah, I'm struggling to figure out how to do this.
This is how I was going to call it done, but after erasing the pencil marks I decided I should draw more textures on the dragon to try and separate the forms... but I may have made it worse lol

>>4157330
I had to play a bit of catch-up. I briefly considered stopping all together considering how busy I'm going to be soon, but I stayed the course.

I made this dragon for Day 12...

>>4160090
...and this lava turtle creature for day 13: Ash.

Day 12:Dragon

>>4160101
And day 13: Ash.

Shilling my friend a bit, apologies for poor resizing. You can find him at https://www.instagram.com/ravinglizard/

>>4159960
Thank you very much anon, I really appreciate it! Animals are really important to study and I personally really enjoy it, I find my understanding of musculature and the body stands to be improved on a lot but this Inktober challenge is really helping form a steady habit of drawing every day

>>4160101

dang, that's sweet

>>4160101
Incredible work anon, wow

>>4155411
Day #10, I'm falling behind due to work, but I'll do a couple quick ones later during my break

>>4158907
Day 13

>>4160101
>>4160092
>>4159903
Man these are awesome

First time posting in these threads. Day 13: ash. I've mostly just been coming up with technique or materials solutions to the prompts and just doing studies off photos since I'm short on actual ideas lately. Today I ground up charcoal ("ash") and added water to make a sort of ink and used it with a dip pen and brush to do a study off a photo reference. Face turned out like shit but I like the hair and some parts of the suit. The charcoal ink thing turned out okay. It lays down like an ink but once it dries it's just as delicate as regular charcoal. It is kinda neat how easily you can erase it though.

Proud of everyone who’s still keeping up at this point. You got this anons, keep up the awesome work, all of you!

>>4160123
shit nigga, that's kawaii.

>>4156113
Working on getting caught up. Day 10 - Pattern. Based on a sculpture from the Des Moines Art Center.

Dusclops

>>4160166
Day 11 - Snow (fairy)
Just cranking out stuff at this point and spending enough time to really polish or start to hate the finished product.

>>4160114
Bic pen? Looks great! Love the creepy dude behind her.

>>4160092
Love how selective and disciplined you are with placing your tones. This is great.

>>4160049
Dude I love your world building. Gotta say, I'd watch or read a series based on what you've been posting.

>>4160169
What kind of paint did you use on the wings, is it some kind of metallic? It looks cool.

>>4160175
Water based pigment from Kuretake! It's number 95, "silver". I've had the stuff for ages but haven't used until this month. For cheap water pigments, they do very well.

>>4160114
Day 11

>>4160169
Thank u, I just used a 3yo Pilot pen that I use to write my study notes with (I draw in between lessons)

>>4158732
Day 13 - Ash tree

>>4158916

>>4158840
>>4159151
Thanks Homie, this is day 13.

I stumbled across this thread today; I'll throw in mine from today as well.

I stumbled across this thread right now; I'll throw in what I did today.

I havent posted here in many days but here are my drawings for yesterday snd today

I almost drew ash ketchum lmao

>>4158664
Day 14 - Overgrown

"Planted in gold and watered with blood, the crown had become overgrown"

> Twitter shilling
https://twitter.com/KingOfSeagulls

I really didn't want to do a plant-based one for this day's prompt so the actual art is kinda stretching the theme a bit - but oh well.

>>4159002
12.- Dragon.

>>4160390
13.- Ash. Dude from Pokemon.

>>4160194
Day 12

>>4159152
Day 13: Ash
Nobody else drew a phoenix? Woah!

>>4159485
And I love you! Thank you so much.

>>4159569
Frankenweenie meets JoJo. Top cool.

>>4159857
Efficient lines!

>>4159858
Oh shit, the dragon is back. Spooky stuff.

>>4160124
Genuinely interested to know what you used for the other days, did you post the result/methods somewhere else?

>>4159784
>>4160090
>>4160131
Repostan what I wrote on Twatter, hopefully to someone's benefit:

INKTOBER MELTDOWN? KEEP IN MIND:

1 There is no punishment here but your own consciousness. Do it digitally, skip 3 days, disobey the prompts. Who's gonna arrest you? Not me. As long as you don't cheat yourself, all's fine.

2 There is no award either. Take it easy, enjoy the ride. You're doing it for yourself.

3 You're doing it for yourself, right? Everyone and their grandmas are doing Inktober, the tag isn't magic (not anymore) and it isn't going to skyrocket your followers - save for a few lucky people. Most popular art you see are from already popular artists who don't need the tag.

4 Remember the 1st goal of Inktober: improving your art. You may not become Sakimi-chan in a month, but you'll be 31 drawings closer to your goal. If they all suck, congratulations! 31 pieces as a beginner give you way more noticeable gains than 31 drawings by a pro.

5 Remember the 2nd goal of Inktober: building good habits. Nowhere does it say you have to shit out a masterpiece every day. Fucked up big time? Forgive yourself and move on. Feeling low today? Call it a day and post it unfinished. Not punishing yourself is a good habit to build.

6 Don't use anything I said to slack off! You should still try and challenge yourself in ways that won't destroy your moral fiber. Positive stress is called eustress. Learning to manage it is also a good habit. Change rules if you must. For the greater good of GETTING ART OUT!

7 Finally, keep drawing!
Those drawings are not gonna make themselves.
Happy failures (and occasional successes), everyone.

>>4158450
that is pretty cool anon

>>4160459
el atrocidad nomming that girl but she seems more displeased than afraid

Ash! quick one for day 13.

>Genuinely interested to know what you used for the other days, did you post the result/methods somewhere else?

I haven't come up with something like this for every prompt, but like for "snow" I did stippling because it kinda reminded me of snow, and for "mindless" I thoughtlessly scribbled on a page and tried to find a figure in the mess, stuff like that. I've been posting on twitter, but my account is mostly not art stuff so I doubt anyone would be particularly interested.

This is probably the previous day I'm most fond of––day 8: frail. Another photo ref piece. I used watercolor that I knew lifted really well in a dip pen (the idea being that the medium is frail/fragile) and did a water wash over parts of the lines to blur/lift them and create shadows in some areas. Obviously the heavy dark ones weren't done this way. It didn't lift quite as well as it did in my tests (or I might have just not been as aggressive since it actually looked pretty decent).

>>4159554
Day 14 - PSA cap your markers to keep them wet and juicy

>>4159557
Thanks - It is highly likely that I also like your art

>>4160872
You said you learned from the Robertson book, right? Any other learning resources? Really would appreciate the input, since you draw superb.

>>4160872
did she died?

The Keyway Substrate 14: Desperate to escape Selene, Mally sneaks aboard a merchant freighter.

>>4160882
nah that's not me - I don't any read books, I just learn by copying stuff that I think is cool

>>4160884
ha, well maybe... I'm kinda bored drawing the same character over and over and over

>>4160987
You practiced drawing her a lot so now you've got her down pat, and can whip her out at any time. Like a mascot. You can make different characters while building on this base design. Maybe you can slip her in the background sometimes like an easter egg/filler character. And maybe in the future you can include her in a story as some artist android, or to deliver gags, or remake her into a character that fits the logic of whatever you're doing at the time. Whatever you choose to do you've built your own cute tool that you can file away for later. I think that when this month is over, when you look back after giving it a little rest, you'll be pleased you drew her so much

>>4160049
How come one EYE divine cybermancy man defeats an entire planet on his own, did he spend too much Brouzouf and became cyber Jesus?

>>4160982
that's nice, anon

>>4161050
Lol I’m half making it up as I go along but I’ll probably do a lore drop at the end.

Here's my late one for the Dragon, or should I say, frog dragon

>>4159388
Day 14: Overgrown

>>4152323

>>4161269

>>4161271
Due to irl problems got thrown off schedule. Now trying to catch up. Hope can do Dragon and Overgrowth tomorrow.

Day 14 theme was overgrown, also my first photo-bashing attempt, let me know what you think

>>4159977
Day 13
I need to learn clouds.
also don't rush foreground

>>4160124
Day 14 overgrown. Couldn't really think of anything clever today.

This is clever enough, anon.
Nice work.

>>4161381

Overgrown

>>4160390
Beautiful shading. Cool design too.

>>4161037
This is the coziest post I’ve read in a long time - Thanks for the pearls of wisdom

>>4161468
Strong composition dude, and just the variety of plants really draws you in. Keep it up man

Again, falling behind with these, keeping up day to day is proving much harder than I thought it'd be. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Day 14 - "Overgrown"
>>4161381
Beautiful work anon, I love the forms and weight here

I've been doing some practice with values and contrast this year. Mostly trying not to draw too much and leave more emtpy space. I didn't do a great job at this with this one.

Gave up after day 5, this was day 2. First drawing I've posted here in months

>>4157023
Been struggling to keep afloat

>>4161570
Took a break from the theme cause my sketch was just not working that day and I was running out of time, so I inked a doodle from my sketchbook instead

>>4161572
Hopefully I can stay on track for the rest of the month. It's almost halfway over ;;

>>4161522
Only if you look hard can you tell the parts have very minor perspective misalignments, which you'll get better at anyway. The contrast between the light and toned parts works very well, and while nicely detailed it does not come across as over-complicated probably due to the nice and simple main body shape. Frankly it makes me feel like I should draw one myself, and I've never drawn a mech before. That's a good sign

Day 14? Girl with Iris

>>4161560
>Day 5
>It is now Day 14

Don't give up just yet, anon. I know it's probably not what you're planning to do, but 9 days of double drawings is doable. Hard, sure, but doable. I'm 6 days behind myself, but even if I don't end up with 30, I'll at least have 30 and my first complete work that I've posted anywhere. You can do it.

>>4161586
Also, I realize I've kinda departed a bit from my original hokusais, but the next one should be much closer to the original thing I had.

>>4161586
you're right, i'm going to try to do it. thank you, and good luck to yourself.

>>4161572
Take this with a grain of salt but after looking at more of your work, I like your insect/frog characters a lot more than your human characters. Said insects are fantastic, I might add. Now this is not the case in this particular drawing, but it may have to do with the very large snout-like noses you sometimes use on humans. The difference is big. Just my 2 cents

>>4161598
Thanks for the feedback, anon. Yeah, I have a bad habit of drawing noses too big and beaky on humans. I've been trying to figure out how to balance them out, as I honestly do like drawing them a bit more on the prominent side compared to anime dot-noses. It is a kink in my art I have been trying to sort out, desu I have been doing no-noses for all the insect drawings just because I thought it would be interesting to try the look out for a while.

I liked today's inktober but most of my previous ones were really ugly and low effort, I don't THINK I should post all of them. But I did catch up

>>4161605
Big noses can be good, but I think they need detail and refined shape to tell the viewer's brain that it's just a nice big nose and not some kind of bird-man. Look at the noses in Vagabond, those are great. They've got hatching and planes and shit

>>4158014
How do I into inktober?

>>4161637
First you must sacrifice a virgin to Shub-Niggurath, then you just draw

I tried FireAlpaca and a tablet today and it let me draw an iced cream in 5 short hours

Well, this is my last post: >>4160392

Day 14.- Overgrown. Realistic Mario Bros.

>>4161531
Awesome form rendering with ink. Keep it up!

>>4161135
Weird combination, but looks cool.

>>4160685
This looks great, amazing perspective and anatomy with ink.

>>4160223
Day 14 - Overgrown Ego

>>4160654
That looks sick! Love this one.

>>4161627
I think I miscommunicated a little, what I meant is that I want to draw simple but defined noses, something like a step or two simpler than pic related

>>4160000
Day 14.

>>4160123
Day 14

Nearly halfway there guys, keep it up

>>4161759
Lovely work!
Do yo have any ig or fb page?

>>4160459
Day 13

>>4160638
Well, I was going for that. Most of my theme is "girl hanging out with some *thing* and doesn't really mind its presence"

>>4161773
Thanks! And nah bro, just a twitter @tomatowindy

>>4160224

>>4161859
silent hill?

>>4160224
I like it

day 14

>>4161535
Yeah, I agree with you. You drew too much and left too little empty space.

>>4161887
What would you suggest to do different next time?

>>4161905
Love the use of shapes

>>4161884
I like this mood

Day 15 - Legend

Personally I like the idea/design of the whisper thing I did here but think the execution/actual drawing is lackluster. Eh, a drawing a day they dont have to be great.

>>4161910
Thanks!

These are great man, really super cute. Your line economy is top notch and these character designs are really hitting home. Don't know if you've posted in the previous threads, but keep it up man, you've got something really interesting going on here

Hopefully the idea is readable. Supposed to be the same creatures depicted, but I think I might've mucked up the big guy a little bit trying to really puff out his silhouette. Let me know any tips you might have!

ASH.

LEGEND! This was a hard one to come up with something about.

Add thicker lines on the outline of each one so they pop a bit more, unless you intend to color it later.

Being honest, that pattern on the mountains (first pic) flattens it.
Not sure about the solution, maybe leaving some highlighted planes unhatched.

>>4161280
Smoke shape is too flat, look up some references or read up Elemental Magic if you need guidance.

>>4161468
This reminds me of CTR concept art and that's a good thing.

>>4161560
I'm sorry you and Inktober-chan couldn't be friends, anon. Just promise me you'll keep dr-

Stop drawing my daughter.
Very comfy stuff, anon.

>>4161967
Yup, had to read your explanation. As a texture this looks amazing, Since we don't see the cones very well (out of frame), I assumed the black part was the beam of whatever (legs? tree trunk? etc.) Besides, he might be cross-eyed with those beam directions; thumbnail it the next time to avoid problems. Ultimately, you could make one beam in our faces (more circular) and the other one more lateral like that, or look at my next post for a composition idea.

>>4161967
>>4162632
Something like this but less shit. Hopefully it helps.

Day 15 - Legend

>>4162648
On a final note, your art reminded me of this cool panel from Becchin and Mandara.

>>4161619
This was kinda decent too

Couldn't really figure out how to translate the cartoon character into my style, and didn't push the pose quite as much as I could have, but still had fun

>>4161884
day 15

this one sticks with me, love the characters.

Thanks for the kind words, anons! I really appreciate it.

Inktober views have really slowed down derp

>>4162849
Everyone gets burnt out within the next 1st week. At this point the people doing it are doing it for themselves.

>>4162864
A drop of 1/10 is still very disheartening...

Will still be pushing forward though

Day 11: snow. Got some catching up to do, been away for a while.

>>4156209
I was actually trying to joke a little bit but I see now that it sounded a little overdramatic. Sorry about that, my bad.

>>4161905
Dude, your stuff is amazing! Got an instagram account? I tried searching for that username (@ddattabb) but didn't get anything.

>>4162651
Your style is really cute, anon.

>>4162278
Loving your posts. The ideas are really well implemented.

>>4160123
This is just lovely. Passing a really alternative comic book-esque vibe here.

I wasn't really into it tonight.

Day 12, Dragon

Day 15- Legend
A swan Hydra based off of the Irish Legend of the Children of Lir. Feel like this was probably one of my weakest so far but I’m just surprised I’ve not broken the streak yet, gonna keep going for it and I hope you guys do too, I’ve seen really phenomenal and amazing work from you all over the last two weeks! We’re half way there.
>>4162795
Your characters are incredibly charming, I love this so much

>>4163153
Been working on pict related for like 6 hours now. Should he be looking to his left our right at the cat or the other way at the angry yelling lady?

Messed up my proportions ):

>>4162653
>>4162648

DUDE! Yes that looks much, much better. I think I wasn't putting enough thought into the perspective and actual tilt of the creature. If anything I think I made the lighting a little too abstract in the sketch and just couldn't think of anything different. I'll definitely have to remember this post if I try something like this again, and thanks for the reference. Maybe I can get some good information from this artist.

>>4162979
I found that guy going by that username on twitter if you’re still looking for him

>>4162979
>Dude, your stuff is amazing! Got an instagram account?

Thank you for the compliment, anon! I didn't have instagram, that was supposed to be my twitter handle. Since you're the second person to ask me about instagram though I just made an account

>>4163252
Not him.
I'm retarded, for some reason I saw that earlier and went "oh man, too bad it's an Instagram handle, if only I could follow it on Twitter..."

>>4156309
Playing catch-up

>>4163317
Decided to combine two prompts

>>4163319

Just sharing for those who are burning out/ second guessing from Inktober

God I wish vampire were real

>>4162763
Lovely work anon, this is really comfy

>>4163323
This is so incredibly surreal and cool. Really simple and effective

>>4162939
I wouldn’t call Gunm obscure or weeb only especially with a major motion picture this year, but yeah the influence is there and intentional, I named the viewpoint character Mally after Gally. The world is pretty much a regurgitation of the disgusting amount of media I consume, in this day in age it’s pretty tough to do anything 100% original.

>>4162369

Taya: "Is that true?"
Ätamo: "I'm telling you, spikelet! I had to fend off TWO ogres at once with my broken shovel!"
Taya: "Cool!"

>>4162739
Like that silhouette very much, anon.

>>4162763
Good idea. Lovely execution. If that's supposed to be Earth, the contrast between the very detailed turtle and the simplified, unferenced continental shapes ia a bit of a downer.

>>4162979
Welcome to DIE!

>>4163049
Weakest in what sense? It doesn't seem to be self-contained in a shape like others, but the swans are very nice.

>>4163051
Interesting take on the theme!

>>4163317
Ganbatte!
>>4163319
My favorite one. Not sure if the smudge behind the skull is intentional, but it adds to the burning alive sensation, add it to the rest of the spine!

>>4163512
Yes! Very nice.

>>4163818
Cute tapir!!

Rendering in pen and ink by Arthur Guptill

>>4164026
Your works are so nice! You have a really pleasing style

Do any of you make pencil sketches first and draw over them with ink or are the majority of these freeballed? I'm having trouble making my inks look as thought out or put together as stuff itt

>My favorite one. Not sure if the smudge behind the skull is intentional, but it adds to the burning alive sensation, add it to the rest of the spine!
The smudge was very intentional. I couldn't cover the rest because I ran out of ink. It's why I didn't fill the rest of the empty spaces in black or made the flame white to give it contrast.

October always leads me to feel Inktober jealousy, so I picked up a pen and a little book to play around in a few days ago.
My previously unknown psychopath eye is the only thing that has turned out halfway alright, are there any good practice techniques for ink specifically that I can get into to git gud?

>Say I was going to be on time everyday cause this inktober week has my favorites
>Also the week I get busy so I missed out some days
It's not fair.

>>4164026
Loving your lines here, you ink lightly with a ballpoint?

>>4164111
... it does.
Can you at least access https://b-ok.cc? If you can just search the book title

>>4164111
Go to the artbook thread, you'll find Guptill in one of the mega links

Even though I haven't really gotten any followers out of this (only 1 so far), it is fun to draw everyday and I can feel myself getting out of my funk so I'm really enjoying this.

Rushed through this one more than I should've, still behind. Wanted to do more of the classical JRPG hero type character, and I can't say I'm entirely unhappy with this one. Do wish I had more time to plan and execute it properly though

>>4162981
>>4161334
>>4159977

I wish I had time to do some studies in between these. plus I'm still a day behind.

Day 16 - “Wild”
>>4163789
Absolutely incredible, god I love that robot. Really loving your worldbuilding this month anon

What kind of pens you guys use?
You guys think I can make good pressure lines with Micron 1.0mm?

>>4164375

I mainly use a muji fountain pen for hatching and general line work.

01 03 05 microns, for straight lines with a ruler and stippling.

Sharpie to fill in black spots

>>4159944
This is so amazing, I love it. I see a man's anger manifesting as a beast and escaping his body, what did you have in mind when drawing it?

>>4164375

I wouldn't recommend putting much pressure on microns, you will damage the tip.

get a fountain pen or a brush pen if you want pressure control.

>>4158014
Thinking I may try some animu or something. All this hatching is killing me.

>>4164438

man I'd love to see your take on anime style.

>>4162979
Day 12: dragon.

>>4163250
>>4163252
I have a twitter account that never was used before, just reactivated it. Already following you there, anon! Also, does anyone have suggestions for artists to follow on twitter?

>>4163483
Thanks for sharing, that gave me a little boost.

>>4163895
Hahahahahaha!

>>4164111
Try this one https://b-ok.cc/book/3559605/7a76c5
Or just do as >>4164263 says.

>>4163145

>>4162763
slowing down w something from the beastar animu on netflix. guess it fits with the prompt of wild, didn't really think too hard about today's.

>>4163895

> Good idea. Lovely execution. If that's supposed to be Earth, the contrast between the very detailed turtle and the simplified, unferenced continental shapes ia a bit of a downer.

thanks! It's just a random "earth-like" planet, didn't have our specific world in mind, but maybe I can downplay that contrast of detail/simplificationo if I do something similar later on.

Day seventeen - Ornamental

Gonna have to work late tomorrow so no guarantee I'll get the next day's done sadly.

>>4161674
Day 15.- Legend.
This was made in Photoshop but I drew the sketch on paper, the result was better than the previous attempts.

I did a really cheesecakey one today, been a little hard to post all of mine on these threads, rest is in my instagram as exeivier

>>4164438
Love the lineart dude! keep it up!

>>4160223
Really really nice, for some reason it reminds me of PS2 games I played as a kid

>>4163323
A wild turkey. These bastards are everywhere in my town.

Damn it Jake why did you put "Ornament" on the list? It's not christmas yet!

>>4165072
An ornament can be just a different type of decoration too anon, such as a brooch, necklace, charms, or little accessories like that

>>4163688

The Keyway Substrate 17: The initial terraforming effort consisted of a network of monoliths. Although said to have been wildly successful at quickly terraforming the planets and moons of the origin system, the monoliths failed on Antaeus.

ALRIGHT, I'M HALFWAY PAST THIS MOTHERFUCKER, I TOLD YOU I WAS GONNA DO IT, GUYS! Now if only I can catch up on this 24h delay...

I can also see the thread has lost a lot of momentum, are you people quitting or just very late? GANBATTE!

>>4164561
Amazing shapes and silhouette.
The textures are a bit haphazard, give them more intention.

>>4165211
>>4165215
HEH. I like em both, I can see how much more comfortable you are with the canvas' area. now.

>>4165363
Your texture distribution makes this so damn pleasing to look at.

>>4165815
I sorta tried to do what you're doing there with thick shadows, but your compositions look way more readable. Could I get your opinion? Is it just the lack of details and small objects?

>>4164461

>>4165104
This is actually pretty sick. Nice seeing it rendered out like this and your expression definitely nails it

>>4164543
Day 16.- Wild.

Managed to get it done! 18-day streak going strong.
