I tried to sketch the horns and damn. It’s hard. If you are still going to draw these horns then I’m wishing you the best of luck. I wouldn’t attempt to draw a character with these horns.

I saw what you meant by the Korean goats horn being easier.

Color version!

I am really loving Insu and Jiseok. Hence why they are the only ones with names (still ideas though).

If I did have to make a story it would be that Insu is in the navy and became an officer. But, he felt like he didn’t earn it (and others also think he didn’t deserve the position). Why? Because his family are already prominent figures in the navy and are well known. So, Insu believes he got his potion because of connections. He only accepted the position because his family urged him to take it.

Jiseok would be a civilian mechanic. He used to be in the army fixing vehicles. Unfortunately, he got injured severely and was in a coma before waking up a year later. Because of what happened, he was medically discharged from the army. He would then struggle to reintegrate into civilian life, but Jiseok managed eventually. He works for a small mechanic shop.

If these two interacted it would be like this:

Insu, eventually, would want to leave the navy. But, he’s afraid of what his family would think. So, he’s jealous of Jiseok for “escaping” military life.

Jiseok would be angry that someone like Insu is not only still in the military but even has an officer position. Like many, he doesn’t think Insu deserves it. Jiseok would be jealous that Insu gets to stay in the military because Jiseok misses his army days.

So far, I got nothing planned for the two female characters. Their design is nice, but I’m drawing a blank with them.

Thank you!

:0

I want to see! Of course, if you want to. I would be happy to see them! And even hear any lore and interesting points about them! I always like to hear about other people's OC even if they aren't connected to the fandoms I am in.

And I get it, when characters don’t have stories it’s sort of hard to talk about them (and even if you do have a story, it might not be completely fleshed out)? Or simply when you feel like you can't talk about it because you aren't sure how people will be interested (ok that's more of me problem).

Quite proud of these designs.

First one works as a mechanic. Thank you to my sister for helping me make sure the design looked like an actual mechanic (I need to work on their boots).

The second one works in a navy. I haven’t thought of what specific job he would have.

The third one works in the air force. Her skirt is not up to standard. She didn’t want it to be shorter than dress code. Like the previous one, I haven’t thought of her specific job.

The last one works as a nurse. I’m not a big fan of her design.

What am I going to do with these designs? Idk. I did enjoy the practice though

Another Untitled Short story

Note: First off, idk why the copy-paste decided to keep the indentation. Second, this is not my best work yet it is the longest (I think). I might rewrite this in the future. Therefore, no art (also cause I need to finish some assignments).

Dalnim sighed as he looked at the oak tree. He sighed as he began to climb the tree. For a hedgehog that likes to hide, he has rarely hidden in trees and is terrible at climbing trees. But Dalnim found that this tree was tall enough to see past the walls of the enemy base without being close enough to alert them of his presence. Dalnim got to the point where he could see the base without climbing higher, which he didn't want to do, and risked getting stuck. He couldn't imagine getting stuck in all the places. Dalnim raised his camera and began to take pictures. All while thinking about why he was even here.

              "Dalnim, can you come with me?" An older soldier said. Dalnim nodded and followed them. Their walk to where they were going was silent. Dalnim could feel his chest tightening. He knew he had nothing to fear… scratch that he did. But as long as Sena was okay, then he was too. However, he wondered why the older soldier called for him. The older soldier opened the door. "Go in."

              "U-Umm, why am I being called here?" Dalnim asked. The older soldier did not answer as he closed the door. If suddenly being called for wasn't freaking Dalnim out, then the silence and being in an empty room was! Dalnim stood still. He could feel his knees locking in. Something he knew he shouldn't allow, but it just keeps happening when he's scared. "E-Excuse me, sir?"

              "Ah, sorry. Dalnim. Do you remember everything that's in your job description?" The older soldier asked. Dalnim tilted his head in confusion. Why was he asking that now? The older soldier sighed. He gave Dalnim a copy of his job responsibilities. Dalnim read through it again. His eyes widened when he read one sentence. "I see you realize it. The higher ups decided that they want to send you close to enemy base to collect photographic intelligence for Flower Hill."

              "W-What?! Why me?" Dalnim shouted. The older soldier momentarily looked shocked before returning to his neutral expression. Dalnim could feel his heart pounding. It was so loud. Dalnim covered his ear. But the heartbeat got louder. The older soldier shook his head as he walked out. Dalnim could hear him talking, but it was too muffled.

              Now, here he is. On a tree, far away from his home. Dalnim's vision blurred. He put the camera down and wiped away his tears. He hated this. He hated all of this. Why did this war even start? If it hadn't been for this war, would his life have turned out better? No. His mother would still be dead because of him. Nothing can change that. His sister would still blame him, but at least his dad would be alive. Dalnim was so deep into his thoughts that he failed to know his surroundings.

              CH-CH!

              Dalnim's eyes widened. He whipped his head to look behind him. He came face to face with a pistol. Looking past the gun, he saw a red fox… a fox. An enemy soldier! But despite that, what struck him about their appearance was her eyes. It was so beautiful.

              "What did you say?" The fox asked. Dalnim blinked. He finally realized the fox was a female fox. But that did not matter because he worried more about what she asked.

              "I-I said something?" Dalnim asked. The fox narrowed her eyes and cocked her gun at him again. Dalnim's body stiffened. The fox quickly pointed the gun down and back up. Dalnim knew she wanted to get down from the tree, which he did.

              "Put your camera down," the fox demanded. Dalnim did as she said. Before the fox said something, Dalnim spoke.

              "A-Are you going to kill me now?" Dalnim said. The fox remained quiet. Dalnim didn't know what came over him, but he began to cry. However, he didn't feel sad. He felt relieved. It was a strange feeling, but he couldn't overthink. "You know, dying doesn't sound so bad now. If I died now, then I can finally be at peace. I-I no longer would be a burden to anyone. It'll be okay." Dalnim's cheek suddenly stung. He blinked. The fox narrowed her eyes, but Dalnim could tell she wasn't mad.

              "Are you crazy? Why would you say all of that? Are you faking all this to gain my sympathy?" The fox asked. Dalnim remained quiet. He didn't know what to say. He could only respond with his tears. The fox lowered her gun. Dalnim remained still. The fox sighed as she put her gun away. She walked up to Dalnim and hugged him. Dalnim was now purely confused. "I don't know you or your situation. But don't ever say it would be better to die!"

              "S-Sorry. I didn't mean to say that," Dalnim whispered. It surprised him. He hugged the fox back. The two stood still for a moment as the leaves danced with the wind. They soon let each other go. Dalnim, once again, couldn't help but admire her eyes again. "You have beautiful eyes."

              "Thank you. You already mentioned it," the fox smiled for the first time. Dalnim looked away. Is that what the fox was asking when they were in the tree? He sighed. That's when he realized something.

              "Oh! You speak the local language!" Dalnim said. The fox grinned. She put her hands on her hips.

              "Yes, I do! I am not fluent, but I am fluent enough to hold an informal conversation!" The fox said. Dalnim nodded. Her language skills were awe-inspiring! He wishes he could speak other languages. It sounds fun to speak a foreign language! "Anyway, what's your name?"

              "Huh? Oh, Dalnim."

              "What does your name mean?" The fox asked.

              "Dal means moon and nim is more of a polite suffix you would refer to older people," Dalnim explained. The fox nodded. Then it seemed something clicked.

              "Wouldn't that name be for a girl?" Dalnim pursed his lips. The fox tilted her head in confusion. Dalnim awkwardly smiled and nodded. The fox chuckled. Usually, Dalnim would feel embarrassed. But, for once, he could feel the small laugh's authentic gentleness. "My name is Iris."

              "Iliseu?" Dalnim tried to pronounce her name. Iris, the fox, smiled and shook her head. "What does it mean?"

              "It means rainbow. My parents named me Iris because of my eyes," Iris explained. The two then awkwardly stood in silence. "So, why did your parents name that?"

              "I don't know. I was never told," Dalnim said. Iris seemed like she wanted to ask for more details but didn't. She did, however, look sympathetic to him. "Oh, so am I free to go or…?"

              "Huh? Oh, yeah. You can go. But I'm taking the camera. Don't come back though!" Iris shouted. Dalnim winched before nodding. Iris picked up the camera bag and guided Dalnim away from the base. The two remained quiet, but they felt comfortable. "From here, you can go on your own back to your country."

              "Thank you. It was nice meeting you Iris."

              "Same here, Dalnim."

Dalnim felt sad. He knew she was an enemy soldier. But he wanted to get to know her more. He then remembered something. He turned to look at Iris one last time before walking away. He tried to talk to her again. As he walked, he didn't know it yet, but Iris would soon become an important individual. As for Iris, she noted that Dalnim dropped something. It was a bracelet. She smiled. Now, she had an excuse to talk to the hedgehog at least one more time.

OMAKE:

"Where's the camera?"

"…"

"You lost it, didn't you? Aren't you supposed to be the stealthiest one? How did you get caught?" The older soldier asked. Dalnim shrugged. The soldier sighed before telling Dalnim to get a new one from the inventory. Dalnim nodded and left.

"Hey, didn't he seem calm? He usually becomes such a nervous wreck whenever we say stuff like that?" Another soldier asked. The older soldier nodded. Just what happened on his mission?

[sah-crescentmoon]

I’m eating carrots and I don’t know why.

I mean, sounds reasonable since carrots are healthy.

But, I’m having toothache from a wisdom tooth so my gums hurt.

So again, why am I wearing carrots?

The answer is easy: I’m hungry. I should have gotten something softer though (¬_¬)

[sah-crescentmoon]

Finally drew Seongmin after all this time (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)

Look at his chosŏn-ot! It looks beautiful (⸝⸝>⩊<⸝⸝)

Honestly, not sure why I drew him in chosŏn-ot but meh. There’s a lot of mistakes but it’s fine.

[sah-crescentmoon]

I don’t think I’m going to add the fandom tag to my posts. Getting insecure asf because ✨anxiety✨

The most wonderful thing to have. I just wanna have fun with my posts without worrying about if people like it. And if I don’t post it with any tags (other than the name of my OCs or the AU title (?)) then ofc I don’t need to worry about that. Cause no one gonna see those posts.

I’m rambling and this is like the second/third time I’ve done this. And it’s sad. But whatever. Probably gonna change my mind in like a week or so.

Untitled (1) (Still don't know what to title this many monts later)

Noeul huffed. She noticed how friendly Dalnim was with the rabbit drill sergeant. However, she noted that it was not romanctic at all. Rather, the rabbit drill sergeant appeared to treat Dalnim like a sibling. Was she taking her place as Dalnim's sister? She wanted to walk up to them, but she knew her relationship with Dalnim wasn't the best. If she tried to force her way to him then he might push back. Suddenly, she realized that they were looking at her. Dalnim looked away and lowered her head. The rabbit drill sergeant stood up and walked up to her.

"Is something the matter, Lieutenant?" The rabbit drill sergeant asked. Noeul recgonized this as her being protective of her own brother. Noeul smiled.

"No, I was just happy to see my brother getting along with someone. Please do keep an eye on him though. I worry about him at times," Noeul said. The rabbit drill sergeant huffed and smirked at her.

"If you did care for him, I don't think you would have blamed his birth for killing your mother. What a beautiful thing to say to your only family," Iseul sarcastically said. Noeul gritted her teeth. What the hell? She knew that argument was not being talked about to spare face for both siblings, but she didn't think Dalnim would tell someone.

"You don't know shit. How about you leave my family matters out of your fucking mouth? Anyway, just do what I couldn't do. I can tell he cherishes you. Don't fuck that up or else," Noeul coldly spoke back. The rabbit drill sergeant remained silent before leaving to go back to Dalnim. The pair then left. Noeul groaned. She wants to talk to Dalnim, but that rabbit was not going to let her get near him it seems. What can she do? She doesn't want to do anything to her because her brother will blame her, even if it wasn't her fault. Noeul narrowed her eyes and walked away. She has a lot of work to do and not enough time to idle around.

A/N: I don't really know what to title this. But, I hope you caught on that Iseul absolutely dislikes Noeul and Noeul is not fond of her. Neither does anything more than talk badly. Iseul doesn't do more since at the end of the day Noeul is still Dalnim's sister and she doesn't want to indirectly hurt him. Also, since Noeul is a higher rank than she is. Noeul has the same reason (of course with her not wanting to be rude to a lower ranked soldier since it can be seen as abuse of power or just having too much of an ego). Dalnim wants them to leave each other alone completely, but his wish is never granted.

Actual note after re-reading this many months later: damn. This was good. I really did not post it cause I couldn't make up a title? Bruh

[sah-crescentmoon]

A happier flash fiction (short story under 500 words according to Google). I have had this in drafts forever. Pencil sketch only cause it isn't anything serious. This has been in m drafts for around 8-9 months and I don't know why?

Really?:

Iseul ran through the base to find Dalnim. Once again, Dalnim manage to hide right under her nose! She was only trying to teach him how to fight, but he refuses to learn... ok, maybe she was harsh with training, but its for the best! No matter where she goes, Dalnim was not there! Iseul was starting to get annoyed about this.

"Dalnim, when I find you... I swear," Iseul hissed. Training was going to be harsher now! At least Dalnim had developed skills with stealth. Impressive talent in hiding. Iseul couldn't be too mad. But, he still needed to learn to fight! He was still in basic training, so she wasn't sure what job he would be doing. And if he was to be out there fighting, then he would most likely to be captured or worse. Iseul couldn't bring herself to think like that. "Where are you, Dalnim!" She shouted.

"Iseul," Iseul turned to look at another soldier. He was trying to hold back a laugh as he pointed behind her. Iseul turned around to see Dalnim. Dalnim looked really confused, but began to smile with the other soldier now laughing. "He-He was... behind y-you this entire time!" Iseul sighed.

"I'm sorry. I did try to call out to you," Dalnim chuckled. Iseul crossed her arms. The base was very active at the moment, so it was quite loud. With how quiet Dalnim can be, it's no wonder she didn't hear him! "Sorry."

"2 miles. You're running for two miles and for the love of chestnuts, stop hiding in the first place! I'm making you sing cadences out loud to practice using your voal cords!"

"Oh. Please don't I-"

"I don't care. Sing while you run!" Iseul shouted as he dragged Dalnim outside. He is going to train until he drops!

------------------------------------------------------

A/N: I tried to be a bit more comedic here. It was a fail, but it was nice to write somethingt that wasn't dark.

[sah-crescentmoon]

Note: This was meant to be posted on Valentine’s Day. I obviously didn’t post on when it was meant to be posted. Again, no art. I may come back to this post to make art. But not today :((

Iris stared at the sleeping hedgehog. A soft smile crept onto her face as she noted that Dalnim was fast asleep again, but it dropped. Iris knew that the jobs within the military is tiring, but it still worried her that Dalnim seemed sleepy as of late. Iris sighed as she kept looking at Dalnim. The more she looked at him, the more she noticed that Dalnim was actually good looking. She carassed his quills and pricked her finger on his quill.

"Sharp," she whispered. Iris yawned and laid down beside Dalnim. When Iris turned to look at Dalnim, she gasped as she saw him staring back at her.

"Oh! You're awake now!" Iris laughed. Dalnim blinked.

"Huh? Did I fall asleep?" Dalnim asked. Iris laughed and nodded. Dalnim's cheeks became slightly pink. He looked at the sky.

"You've been sleepy recently. Don't you sleep back home?" Iris asked. Dalnim sighed. He shook his head. Iris frowned.

"I can't ever fall asleep. The only thing I can do is stare at the ceiling. Afraid that something bad would happen. It's impossible to sleep," Dalnim whispered. Iris looked at Dalnim. She was starting to feel sorry for him.

"Then why do you fall alseep here a lot? You're in enemy territory," Iris asked. If Dalnim was worrying about a lot of things, how can he fall asleep in a place like this? Dalnim blinked before he sat straight up. Iris could see his light blush become much more colorfully red. Iris was confused.

"I-I think being with you makes me feel safer," Dalnim said. Now, it was Iris' turn to blush. Dalnim laid back down with a soft smile. Iris smiled.

"Even though I am an enemy of Flower Hill, your country?" Iris asked. Dalnim looked at her.

"You're an enemy to them. But to me, you're Iris. A wonderful friend. Someone who I can turn to whenever I need to be happy. Honestly, it makes me grateful for how life turned out. Despite everything, I got to meet you," Dalnim said. Iris smiled and turned to hug Dalnim. Dalnim could only blink as the fox kept hugging him.

"You sure know how to make a woman happy."

"What?"

"Nothing!" Iris shouted as she pushed Dalnim back onto the ground.

[sah-crescentmoon]

Going through my drafts and I find out this guy does have a name!

His name is Seongmin (성민, 成敏)

Here's the rest of that draft

Here is a more cleaned out bio for him:

Seongmin is an over stressed army accountant. He always has something to complain, but for good reason. A misplaced file or errors on paperwork is anything but a minor problem. Seongmin is hot-tempered and will shout a lot without even looking up. All he wants is for everything to be filed correctly and for the numbers be free of error. After all, free of error is an important aspect in accounting. Due to this stress, he has a habit of chewing his pencils and putting random numbers into his calculator when not in use. Seongmin’s personality tends to make others wary of him, but for those who know him, he isn’t someone to be worried about. He can be kind towards others in an odd way, but kind, nonetheless. He tends to leave snacks for others at their desk without saying anything. Only a simple sticky notes with a basic encouragement phrase. Or he’ll give others a head pat while quietly telling them “thanks” or “good job”.

Edit: His tail should be a bit messy. This guy is overly stressed tf out (see below the cut to see how the tail should be drawn. Idk how I messed up making sure this one detail. He tries to keep his tail neatly brushed though)

[sah-crescentmoon]

Note: This was in my drafts for a while. I think I remember the idea to write this was with one of the many replies from one of my posts. These are two short omakes for one of my short stories. No art because I am lazy plus I don't have motivation at the moment.

Also, disclaimer for poor attempt of medically explaining anxiety and passing out because of it. I do not have medical knowledge and I am too shy to ask my boyfriend. I apologize for it.

All Eyes on You Omake (1/2)

The nurse frowned. Dalnim was no stranger to the infirmary room, and it bothered her a lot! She turned to look at the soldier and teacher. She was not happy either of them! And they seemed to know it themselves. The nurse turned to the teacher.

“You! You know how Dalnim is! You should have put a stop to it! I don’t care if it would be rude! His health is more important than some questions!” The nurse shouted. She then snapped her head towards the soldier. The soldier looked away.

“Don’t look away! Are you not taught be careful with interacting with civilians? You should have noticed that he was nearly about to black out! Could you not have talked to him after class?!” The nurse sighed. It didn’t matter if she yelled at them. The poor kid was lying unconscious.

The soldier looked towards Dalnim. “You’re right. I should have. I thought that I was only getting him to understand on what soldiers did.” The teacher frowned. The nurse shook her head.

“I should have stopped you. Dalnim has always been like this. He’s always been susceptible to fainting spells when it comes to any anxiety-inducing moments,” the teacher explained as she looked at the soldier.

“I still don’t understand how my questioning caused all of this,” the soldier muttered. The nurse smacked his head.

“His blood pressure is low. So, the sudden drop caused him to faint,” the nurse explained. The soldier shook his head.

“No, I mean why did he end up fainting. I understand his blood pressure drop. But, what caused that?” The soldier asked. The teacher seemed to be in agreement with the question.

“From my understanding, when someone has an anxiety attack or panic attack, sometimes the nervous system overreacts to the emotional trigger. Thus, it slows the heart rate down and the blood pressure drops too. It seems that being put on the spot triggered this,” The nurse said.

“Or better yet, it may be what that student said. He referred Dalnim as a traitor,” the soldier spat. He knew that any traitors were to be taken in and questioned. He really doesn’t like them. But it was hard to believe this kid to be a traitor.

“I doubt it. If he opposes the war, he may be someone who wishes for it to end in a more diplomatic manner. Rather than a victory from death and bloodshed,” the teacher said.

The conversation soon ended. Both the soldier and the teacher had to return to the classroom to be with the students. The soldier also had to finish answering questions for students. The nurse remained in the infirmary. She took one look at the young hedgehog.

“Will he be, ok?” She asked herself.

--------------------------------------------------

All Eyes on You Omake (2/2)

Jaeyoung was worried. And he wasn’t the only one worried. He and his classmates have always known that Dalnim was not the strongest emotionally. So, for Dalnim to faint it was no surprise. But it never failed to cause them to become worried for him. Jaeyoung sighed as he turned to Sungyun, the classmate who had called Dalnim out.

“Seungyun! What was that about?! How could you do that to him?!” Jaeyoung shouted. Seungyun was taken aback at being shouted at. But he did not back down.

“What? It’s true. He doesn’t support the war and thinks we have to be nice with the enemies! Only a traitor would think that!” Seungyun shouted.

“So? He has his opinion, and we have our own! And our opinion right now is that what you did was so mean!” Jaeyoung shouted back. It is true that Dalnim’s views were a bit confusing. But none of that made him a traitor! Like everyone else, he still wanted peace. So, Jaeyoung just could not understand what Seungyun was saying. Seungyun rolled his eyes and ignored him. Jaeyoung sighed. He hoped that the day would just end soon.

Jaeyoung ran back to the share room he had with Dalnim. The two never really spoke to one another as Dalnim seemed to always lock himself up in his room. However, this time, Jaeyoung will talk to him! He needs to make sure he is ok. Jaeyoung knocked on the door. No response. “Dalnim? I’m coming in!”

Jaeyoung opened the door. Dalnim at his desk reading one of the textbooks. Jaeyoung stood beside him. “Hi, Dalnim. Shouldn’t you be resting? You can study later. How about we grab something to eat!” Jaeyoung said. Dalnim glanced at him and shook his head. Jaeyoung sighed. Dalnim was always the hardest person to talk to. He never spoke a word and sometimes it was annoying. But, right now, he needed to get Dalnim to something that will truly get his mind off of earlier events. “Ah, come on! It’s better than reading!” Jaeyoung shouted. No response. Jaeyoung then grabbed Dalnim and pulled him out of the room.

The other students looked up when both Jaeyoung and Dalnim entered. Jaeyoung could feel Dalnim trying to pull away, but he pulled him forward. Dalnim looked at him and he seemed bothered. Jaeyoung decided to ignore it. After all, Dalnim needed social interaction!

“Dalnim, are you ok?” One student asked. Dalnim nodded. He looked away. Jaeyoung frowned. He always did this.

“Are you sure? We got worried since you fainted again,” another said. Dalnim still refused to respond. Jaeyoung looked at his classmates who seemed annoyed, but still concerned. That is when Minji, someone who only moved here 3 years ago got up.

“Dalnim, please talk to us! We’re all like a big family, so you can trust us,” Minji said. Everyone stared at Minji. Jaeyoung frantically shook his head. Oh no, Minji didn’t know about Dalnim’s family! She didn’t know that his parents were gone and his relationship with his sister is strained! Minji looked confused. “What did I say?”

“Family? Family doesn’t mean shit to me,” Dalnim hissed. Jaeyoung gasped. Cussing wasn’t common for the people in the village, and it was even less for Dalnim. He’s pretty sure the worst he said was damn. Minji seemed to have gotten offended.

“What? Family means a lot to everyone. How could you think like that to your own? They’re the ones that are always there for you!” Minji shouted. Another student grabbed her and before they could say anything…

“Good for you! Good for everyone here! But sometimes… sometimes someone’s family can be the one that hurts them the most!” Dalnim shouted. Everyone stopped talking. It has been a long time since no one heard Dalnim’s voice clearly, but no one expected to hear it again because he was shouting. But what made them go silent was Dalnim’s facial expression. He was crying and the hurt look in his face was too much. The student who grabbed Minji whispered something in her ear. Minji gasped.

“Dalnim, I-I’m sorry,” she said. Jaeyoung watched as Dalnim apologized and then ran off. Jaeyoung wanted to chase after him. Reach out to him again. But the painful look on his face had made him stand so still. What could he or any of his classmates do? He doesn’t know if he would ever regret not chasing after him.

(Spoiler: yes. yes, he would regret it)

[sah-crescentmoon]

That is not cheating. Lots of artists do that to save time or because they don’t wanna do it again. Also, it’s only really referencing which is good.

Ok, let me see if I understand it:

The mouse is obvious with the tail. Also, they have sharper eyes. The secret dormouse has a less fluffy tail and ends with a sharp end. However, the squirrel has a rounder and fluffier tail (which is fuller looking than the secret dormouse). For the years, squirrels have the smallest ones. I think the mouse seems to have rounder years than the secret dormouse. Oh the secret dormouse has more mustache than the squirrel.

Good, I like it. It easily distinguishes the differences between the species. Anyone will be able to tell what species they are. I like it!

Also, I love the drawing. It’s cute. And yes, I think there’s like a stock/meme drawing that resembles this. Regardless, it’s fun.

Oh, I think I know that drawing! Considering how far you’ve come with your art, I can’t wait to see the improvements! I hope you get the chance to find what works for you for that drawing!

Yes. Nothing wrong with that. I wanna see that leaning guy again. Idk something about them was so cool. I am so dumb for saying that lmao

Two Fathers and their son

A recreation of this piece

[sah-crescentmoon]

Y’know, I feel like I want to make some actual SaH content. But I find myself not really being interested anymore. I still like the series and what people make for this fandom. But I feel like I can’t so the same. Also I like my OCs too much (as you can obviously tell since that’s like the only content I make now).

The only idea I still like is Bamsaegi leaving Flower Hill. But that idea has been around for a bit and I feel like I would just be copying.

The only thing I can think is this:

Bamsaegi successfully leaves Flower Hill and is using his previous studies help or he is just working as a farmer or at a shop.

He hears that Geumsaegi is in trouble and goes to help. Which he does successfully due to his experience during conscription. Geumsaegi asks Bamsaegi to go back but Bamsaegi is like “no thank you. I’m happy where I am”.

But Bamsaegi did such a good job that the enemies are onto him. And he feels bad about going back to neutral territory and potentially brining problems. So now he has to try to throw away his actual identity and flee again (which is harder since FH scouts are also looking to take him back).

So will he be able to finally escape Flower Hill or be forced to go back to the life he tried so hard to escape from?

Idk how other characters would play into this. Or if I would even do anything with this idea. If this was an AU, idk what to call it lmao. This is probably just gonna be an idea and nothing else. Since someone probably made this idea before and I don’t wanna accidentally take it.

Yes, the original one was definitely cute! And you can still do that same style. Learning the anatomy lets you learn to adjust it to better fit what style you like better. Glad to see you continuing to improve over time and hope you do continue to improve (and more importantly have fun)!

Oh yeah, layering is such a huge help! It’s the one thing I appreciate the most about digital drawing (other than the ability to actually erase without smudged on paper).

You got a great SO if he’s finding you all the references to help you draw. And yes, it does have a lot more pattern and texture to it. Which makes it better. I could never (I hate drawing objects and backgrounds as you can see with the lack of background drawings on my accounts).

Oh my goodness! The recreation is so good! There’s a lot of improvement from the previous version and this one!

You have a lot of improvement with the anatomy and perspective! I am loving the mountains in the background. The horizon is much clearer too. Overall there’s a lot of improvements. The stone wall is one of my favorite parts of the drawing.
