tryin to redesign loops because i dont like how nothing he was before. i feel like im having a hard time finding balance between being too complicated & too simple but i dont really know how to fix that lol. someday theyll look good (maybe)

Character belongs to @Corals Art Studio.
The other sketch kept on bugging me. I'm so sorry it was terrible 😭😭😭
Here's hopefully an improved version :S And I cannot stress this enough, I am ashamed I even posted the previous one-

Now that this is colored I have no excuse to avoid working on my manuscript. :,)

HIII guys! I've had these little guys in the works for a while and im finally ready to list them!
These lines are complete with
- foal lines
-adult lines
-3 mane and tail options (braided, long, short
-unicorn tail and horn
-halter
- background
- colored lines, full shading

I am only taking USD at this time, all payments will be discussed thru discord (user: faentofheart)
AB: $55
gonna be posting examples of options in a bit!

doodle for my friend o7

got this guy the same time as daisy driver but for some reason i didn't finish his adopt doodle page 'till about five months later.. but hey a neat coincidence that they're both uploaded on the twenty-seventh !
anyway meet tulip everybody, he's hoshi's younger brother & he likes bugs; reading; & sweet lemonade { a lil fact that's totally not influenced by me currently rewatching jelloapocolypse's lemonade tasting videos as i make this post } :3 he's rather shy interacting with anyone who isn't family, & takes great pride in looking spiffy.

This is a bit complex, but at the same time pretty straightforward?

Tips:

• Use References for Everything.
  
• Learn 1 point, 2 point, and 3 point perspective. While you don’t need to use it every time you draw a background, it is helpful to learn how things change shape and sizes depending on where you place the horizon line.
• Not pictured: When you use lines for backgrounds, it’s good to add more detail towards the focus of the drawing and less detail in the distance/if it’s flat out in the foreground. I often use disconnected, scratch lines for things further in the distance, and solid detailed lines for things closer to the “camera.”
• Ambience! The sky will give off a blue hue, I like to take the airbrush and gently soften the objects closer to the sky to push the sense of the distance.
• I like to use the same color to shade everything, in order to keep a consistent tone and look to the piece. Likewise with the source light. So once a character’s base colors are blocked in, they’re treated the same as the surroundings in order to get them to blend in with it.

Further Breakdown:

1. Perspective/Camera
I like to imagine the canvas as a camera, so that I can think of the perspective in my mind. Is it focused super close on a subject, or is it taking in a landscape? What above looking up or down? These things are dictated by the Horizon Line. This helpful thing shows where your eye level is and where the camera is angled at. The horizon line is the base point for the drawing. I highly recommend researching further into it. (I got lucky and was taught these things when I was little by my mom.)
Note: These guides are great if you’re wanting to draw buildings and rooms.

2. Distance
It is easier for me to view these in layers.

1. Sky - the sky! It is lighter near the horizon and darkens as it moves up.
2. Horizon - Perspective Guide! It can be hidden behind things, but subconsciously should always be in mind.
3. Background - A little more detailed shapes, but still pushed out of focus
4. Midground - More details and more colors
5. Foreground - Right up in front of the camera.
I will often place my characters in the Midground or Foreground. If a character is in the Midground: the Foreground is blurred out/kept as a dark shadow. If the character is in the Foreground the Midground is blurred out and the Foreground is sharpened up.

3. Character Placement
Depends entirely on where you want the character to be sitting in the scene. It’s like taking a picture, but drawing it instead!
The further the character is from the camera, the smaller they will get.
It helps greatly to add weight and shadow to the character, make them touch the ground, squish the grass, and cast a shadow. These little things help place the character into the scene.


Final images is showing how you can render a painting in grayscale and then add colors onto using layer effects/types. I used Overlay and Soft Light to add the colors and Multiply and Overlay to add the shadows and highlights.

funny thing, I've never drawn my Wof hybrid ocs until now
Big Noctis redesign though (Nightwing in the left) probably won't stay.
I'll probably delete this I lost motivation and I don't like it LOL

Octane: 'Let me go. I can pass somewhat as a Nightwing. You won't."
[Seawing/Nightwing]

Bane: 'Three moons, leave me alone will you?'
[Nightwing/Sandwing]

Octane: "What do you expect me to do? Neither of you look close enough to fit a Nightwing look!"

Noctis: 'You don't have that big of a chance, either."
[Nightwing/Icewing]

Doodle of this shop pet, created by Yugi! (2024)
Now, I've got to go fish for loose change in the couch cushions...

Another fan art.

Referenced that last panel on the last episode, so I hope it doesn't look like I'm copying. I still can't draw people properly without references xd

22 days left to go for next season, so exciting :D

Another doodle... A little wonky again? I'm no good at this kind of style, but I'll keep at it!

Shading takes a few steps and the complexity depends on how much detail an object has, but I do the same rough steps every time. I often set the lineart color to a dark purple and place it on multiply, then merge that to the base and add shading on top of it all. But this example allows for the lines to be left untouched, which allows you to recolor the base freely.

After having a base + lineart:

1. New layer clipped to Base. Set to multiply. I prefer to use purples and pinks for shadows. Using the airbrush, place down a general direction of the light source.

2. Use the eraser to cut out the spots where the light hits.

3. Paint in the darkest shadows and detail spots. Go back and forth with the airbrush, soft eraser, hard eraser, and brush to get the desired texture.

4. New layer clipped on top of shading layer set to overlay. Use light source color and the airbrush. Go over with normal brush to add brighter highlight spots.

5. Add a final layer on top of everything set to Add to color in the hot spots (brightest points).
