My take on a semi-realistic Angel Dust (& the adorable Fat Nuggets) from Hazbin Hotel! <3

Which outfit should I give him? Classic striped blazer, battle vest, vinyl catsuit, pink leotard + fluffy bum/thorax, or spiderweb shibari rope bondage harness?

Specific critiques would be appreciated 😊 I think the top hands might need more contrast. Or maybe the whole figure? & Idk if they stand out against the purple background enough. Or too much. I should try adding some purple reflections, but I already spent forever trying to get all four arms to look right. & then I had to edit the living hell out of the saturation & color balance, as I hadn't realized just how dark & de-saturated my ancient tablet screen was, so when I exported what I thought was a nice subtle digital painting, I instead received a blinding neon pink abomination with very low contrast.

I did replace my 8 year old tablet with a Huion Kamvas 13 (gen 3) graphic tablet, & the colors are infinitely better now, but I still can't get them to perfectly match the bigger display. The screen also feels slippery to draw on, so I've barely used it in months. & I wish I'd gone for a 16" screen, even though it wouldn't doubled the price, the CSP UI feels crowded. ...But hey, at least my new tablet is pink! ;P

I miss when everyone on my dash listened to Welcome to Night Vale so there’s be a good chance that on any ole day someone would reblog a quote that would grab me by the throat and forcibly ascend me to a higher plane where I understood myself and the universe better and with more kindness but also a little spook

"Do you ever dream of land?" The whale asks the tuna.

"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"

"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."

"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."

"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.

"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."

"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."

"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.

"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.

"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."

"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."

"You forget," says the salmon, "That the oceans were once their home."

Full version of my avatar! I was just trying a new technique where I skipped the sketch & lineart steps, & just started painting. So it was several hours in when I realized my canvas was only 800x pixels ;_;

Strangely, this is my only self-portrait in 4 years of digital art. No one will see this anyway, so I'll just keep squirting digital paint into the digital void.

I'm finally happy with the lineart for this semi-realistic illustration of Angel Dust from Hazbin Hotel, featuring the handsome little lad, Fat Nuggets! 😊 Next up, painting.

I finally have somewhere I can post unfinished sketches & WiPs! Which hairstyle suits this semi-realistic Angel Dust better? Maybe I'll combine them!

I wanted to see what the 2 baddest imp sisters from the wrath ring would look like in my semi-realistic style! Giving them noses has been controversial, lol :P

Which Hellaverse character should I draw next?
