day three of pencil cat's improve your art in 30 days challenge ! Action pose reference drawing !!

I used this pose from @adorkastock ! and I learned I can put links over text in tumblr, so learning a bunch haha.

I'm bad at action, so I did still with the female form today. This one is alright, I liked my one from yesterday more ;;

Calling all artists, animators, and fans of fun and useful pose references! In 2 weeks time I will be taking part in @adorkastock & Friends' MASSIVE Group Poses for Artists Shoot.

We've got a bunch of models of different sizes and shapes, more props than you can shake a stick at (including bows, a pole and a POOL), and two full days of shooting to get as many reference photos as we possibly can. It's gonna be awesome, and there will be some PHENOMENAL references coming out of this.

If you'd like to pre-order Photo packs, you have until the 25th October. Get them here:

In the meantime, as a taster, here are some of the photos from last time I collaborated with @null-entity (who's also part of this project!) Enjoy!

(You can find the rest of these sets in my Patreon Shop)

Disney's "Peter Pan", BEHIND THE SCENES (Released on Feb 5th, 1953)

Sam-zilla! Civilization crumbles as her rampaging flattens a city of 6 million 100 from the face of the Earth!!!

Bug Fact: There are multiple Monster Bugs in the Godzilla Franchise. Those notably being a Gigantic gang of Praying Mantis and a Web-spiting Spider. EDIT: and Mothra the Moth!! More thoughts and Godzilla below 💖🦖

Okay, can I gush about how much I enjoyed drawing this one scene? idk why, but it itches a spot in my brain. Something about Sam being way too tall for the shot and having the entire middle ground be essentially half a city. Sense of scale is always fun to play around with.

This comic has been a very fun way to implement my different interests.

This part is very inspired by my silly Godzilla obsession. LITERALLY. This one scene was heavily inspired by the Godzilla comic I'm reading :)

Also YES. Godzilla showed up in the OG Marvel Comic series and it's as cheesy and beautiful as you can imagine.

Omg almost forgot- These are the Godzilla bug foes.

the one above is actually a black hole bug! WOW

Reblogging this drawing with the Timelapse because I finally figured out how to add those and I think it’s cool

Took me about 60 hours which is CRAZY,, I call this one The Quark Family when I’m talking about it (which seems apt) and I’ve literally crammed so many references and details and hours into this my life feels so empty without it. Tumblr is butchering the image quality but that’s just what it is ig,,, I’ve tried and I can’t seem to fix it

Progress shots and closeups under the cut (and a full list of the references and stuff I crammed in in the tags bc I have to know that they’re all noticed)

Actors Helene Stanley and Jeffrey Stone’s live-action reference footage for Cinderella (1950)

doodles to try to get me back into posting, and I guess an alt way they meet him, via spongebob reference? (does it make any sense? no but both episodes having a diner is hilarious.)

[2bitz-star]

Maybe next month.

Sorry Starline, but Stone has the position of Employee of the Month secured for a while.

Close up of Stone under the cut!

Hey Nerds, Artists, and fans of fun and weird stuff: Exciting news!

Some of you know that I recently did a collaborative photoshoot with @null-entity to produce a bunch of stock reference images of archery, pole, and general fantasy combat nonesense. Well, the first of those image packs is NOW AVAILABLE. You can purchase individual packs, or sign up for the relevant Patreon memberships to get them for free!

More sets, including archery hand references, paired archery poses, and archery muscle references, will be uploaded in the coming weeks.

There's always time for a kiss

Popping out of a hyper fixation to say that it would be really funny if Vecna targeted Steve after S4, via Kas or honestly even if he was digging his head before the end of S4, and it’s because of sexism. Vecna saw the one man there for the fight who has been around and assumed that was the leader. So he’s trying to parse out their plan based on the 40% Steve heard at all, of which Steve misinterpreted about half, and then the rest got filled in with bits of movies and random guesses.

When the fight goes down Vecna gets his ass kicked because the plan is only vaguely related to what Steve thought was going down.

Gotta give it up to The Untamed for finding an actor that looks exactly like how Jiang Cheng is described. Like-

Ya, that's him alright
