linking this bc it was lost from 8 years ago

Made this back in April for the @btscoloringbookproject , never got around to coloring it, but nobody else did either. Here it is. Download it, deface it, have fun, whatever. Pls credit if you happen to do so?? You know the drill 👉👉

#the likeness isnt rly likenessing so its Just Some Guy #im so tired rn #idk why i just felt like posting this somewhere even tho #shephart #wow look a trad i havent done one of these babies in a thousand years #honestly pretty fun to not have to think of being on model/replicatable design #but that obv led to... less recognizability and also did it even help my efforts/art skill overall?#meh i cant be too picky tho when i only draw like an hour or two weekly i cant expect too much i guess #not bts #not tagging this w proper tags tho bc embarrass #i quite liked the bg color i slapped on it digitally tho lmao #trad to digital bc i wasnt confident to put blue originally bc i thought it would look patriotic #i can always count on tumblr to be my cosy void i can throw things into #love a cosy void #no expectations is actually the best

drawing stylized fanart of real people is just going through all the stages of grief in figuring out which elements of the face to let go of and which ones to keep…

"Can I look into your eyes?"

"Why?"

"I just told you not to ask."

this show has my entire heart in a vice grip since I watched it last July and it might just be my favorite show of all time. ty, show, for bringing me so much joy.

<3

as a fanartist who has primarily drawn BTS it's kind of fascinating trying to draw new guys after them bc I've legit spent like 7 years staring at the boys and getting to know their faces in different angles and literally practicing and testing how to simplify their shapes in my own way but retain their likenesses, PLUS learning the shape language and trends that FANDOM and other fanartists have created for each of the members and how we recognize them in art separately from their actual photos and video appearances

and trying new ppl is somewhat like starting from scratch for me

#shepposting #idk just thinky thoughts while trying to draw some bl boys #things like Tae's peanut upper lip and the lower lashes that artmy have basically decided is a Tae feature in fanart #to be fair every time I draw I feel like I'm learning how to draw all over again #even doodles go through the ugly faze and the trust the process type of crisis #i draw yoongi in soft triangles #hobi is a longboi in most ways #namjoon has an eggy head and rectangular eyes #jin is... idk honestly lmao #ive literally struggled for years trying to find a system of drawing them so it's easier but not huge success #every artwork looks like a different artist drew it #going back to main point it's esp difficult when the subject is not part of a huge fandom like artmy #where tons and tons of artists form a community shape and visual language #not art
