Choso 🛐🛐🛐

Still fighting for my life on anatomy and finding my style 🫶

Used a different pen, a brush one, to experiment and I don't think it's bad???

Recreation of this in my own style 👍

(yes I know he doesn't have the mouth scar in the original panel but I love the scar too much)

Also haven't really refined my style at all so 🫡

(pray for my anatomy)

Something I noticed in Showdown

There's one tiny scene in Showdown that always facinates me. After RGBY were all killed in front of TSC's eyes, his reaction was very interesting.

He did not charge at TDL blindly in grief and rage, he did not break down crying for his friends, he did not dwell on his friends' deaths at all. Instead, he turned to TCO immediately.

When he saw Chosen was surrounded by the swarm of Virabots, he still reached out a hand towards Chosen, then promptly got pierced in the back by Dark's virablades.

For me, this tiny detail made Second different from those typical fearless, hotheaded anime protagonists. This scene alone made Second a fleshed out, realistic character more than anything else in the entire season.

Yes, of course he grieved for his friends' death, but at that very moment, the fear for his own life surpassed everything else. He saw that powerful monster brutally murdered all his friends, and he knew he's going to be next. So he reached out to the only person he knew that could save him, and made a desperate plea:

"Please, help me. I don't wanna die."

Second was many things. He was a talented animator, an insatiable learner, a brave leader, a seasoned warrior. But at that very moment, on the brink of real, permanent death, he was just a scared child calling someone, anyone, for help.

And that made his conscious decision to protect Chosen all the more powerful, because it shows how brave Second really is. He knew his chance against Dark was minimal, he was scared, terrified even, but he still chose to put himself between Chosen and Dark, just because it was the right thing to do.

And that is true bravery. Bravery doesn't mean the absence of fear, it means feeling the fear, but choose to do it anyway.

Mars: yo you wanna go to the- tf-? Earth: unintelligeble sobbing

My little attempt at earth alone (this took me so much time and I was so tired of it I just lazied mars and venus)

still figuring out designs and stuff like that, and how to use a drawing tablet and medibang

[pastel-lemonn]

My obsession with these two will never cease 🙏 drawing is kinda rough cuz I made it pretty quick lol

[pastel-lemonn]

Decided to experiment with ibispaints tools lol so I made the sillies 🤙

(I've never done lighting so that's why it looks weird lol)

More lil sketches and doodles 💃 (you can tell I don't like drawing legs)

First one was the first time I drew earth humanlike, that's why he's got like a billion flags on his chest cuz I didn't know what to do 💀 (also the last time I draw the exact same pose with him 😔🙏)

Also Uranus is supposed to be wearing one of those drawing gloves, but I'm incapable of making clear drawings

And Luna is wearing those nasa blue space jumpers lol

Design credits to @pixillandjester since I practically copied them 🙏(mostly on earth and the others are wearing my ideas, but still ripped off the general style except on the last one 🕺)

Art dump with more lil dudes (can you tell I have a favourite?)

I'm 100x more used to drawing on paper but I'm still trying to branch out to digital since I have more options and cool colours on that lol

Once again I give credit to the amazing @pixillandjester for their really cool designs which I practically copied but with a few changes

First attempt colouring one of my drawings on the 3rd one and it didn't go very well but it is what it is 🤷‍♀️, also the first and last ones are pretty similar because I lack ideas 🕺

[pastel-lemonn]

First time drawing in digital in a loooong time lol and mainly for experimenting with designs (mercury's fit sucks 💀), colours, ibis paint...so it's not very good (there is one mistake with the coloring of the pants that annoys the hell outta me but it is what it is I ain't going back)

Credits for the inspiration for the design (way more than inspo ngl) @pixillandjester , super cool and I love their art 🙏

Also the situation is supposed to be Venus chasing down mercury and said planet hiding behind earth lol
