My Elliott drawings process (and art styles) from past months...

[1st pic: my *very* first attempt on drawing him (Jan 30th) | 2nd pic: my first ship art of my farmer and elliott (Jan 31st) | 3rd pic: attempt on rendering him (Feb 3rd)]

[4th pic: my farmer x elliott animatic :3 (Feb 12th) | 5th pic: my attempt of him for my personal photocard lol (Mar 19th) | 6th pic: simple ref sheet of him (Apr 21st)]

[7th pic: more art style practice teehee (Apr 30th) | 8th pic: finally using actual references lol (May 3rd) | 9th pic: simple doodle(??? (Jul 8th)]

And finally my recent... (Aug 27th)🧎‍♂️

I have a lot more... go check the elliott tag in my acc lol

I'm not kidding when I say i STRUGGLED to draw him (I still am) I am not used to draw men,, I usually draw cartoony guys with my silly cartoony art style... but I learned to draw beyond that just for the sake of him 🧍‍♂️

I am getting the hang of it though! but still struggling at times... 😭 and seeing my progress on drawing him, this year alone makes me feel... proud-ish?

A little more fact about me: I got into Stardew on late January this year (I am still newbie :3). At first I was going for either Shane or Penny but then... I saw the sight of him on the beach. I never expect to get THIS obsessed over a character... he changed me 🙏

Hehe a random post but i feel like making it ehehehehe 👉👈

ive been sick for these past several days but at the same time i discovered housing in ffxiv so im using my time off to make my oc's house (and yes ill be using this as ref to draw my ocs as well)

first floor, kitchen in the back, atelier the rest of it. theres a cashier desk in the front to accept orders (so its an atelier-living room-shop) in one

entrance and lounge on 2nd floor

living quarter for the girl (margot)

living quarter for the senior apprentice

the mystisch's living quarter (the head of the atelier!)

i made these with two FC private chambers bc i have two acc everything is so much cheaper in elemental and i kinda chated gposing the living quarters bc i hit the 100 item limit, took out some walls to take pics, and fake doors, so in game you cant go in unless i took out the wall hahaha

anyway this was really fun, i thought abt getting sims agian but i aint spending all that money on the expansion packs and i rly like the furnitures in ffxiv

aventurine fanart~ (if the hands holding the gun n collar in the 2nd pic seem small— i used my hands as ref PFFT) plus a lil doodle on the side during my play through of penacony cuz oh BOY do i wanna punch him so bad

[skunkes]

for me, the loveliest parts of your drawings are the construction. like veryyy inspired and true to anatomy but very clearly your own flavor. your pdf has really really put that "spark" for me in drawing again 💖 especially since I also draw doodley & small. unfortunately, with my ADHD/current workflow it's a real uphill battle to not give up a study despite desperately wanting to get better at construction. :(

if you use studies a lot, do you have any tips on how to keep studies fun? What sources have worked for you in the past? (especially for fat/wrinkles/clothes)?

This is getting to be a pretty specific ask haha sorry if it's a lot. I hope some of it made sense tho :)

hi hi so idk that i'd endorse it per se but what worked for me was only focusing on stuff i was interested in for years LOL

so in high school i loved drawing hands and arms... so i only ever focused on hands and arms...

i literally did not start fully focusing on/trying to learn Legs (for example) until the last 2 years. you can see even now that idk how to draw shoes (and idk that ill ever learn because ive never cared about em irl and only really use one pair LMFAO but that could change!) and then its slowly come together like puzzle pieces.

All of this came from personal interest....i was fascinated with hands and arms at first, the shapes the forms. then u can combine it with other things. i became determined to draw all sorts of bodies well so i could depict my ocs accurately. i had a focus on noses because i love noses and wanted to have ocs with their own unique noses, so i had an excuse to draw said ocs more to learn. (and then becoming enamored with all the ways skin and flesh can sit and squish helped with wanting to draw bodies more).

stuff like that helps keep it fun. sometimes when i do body studies now i dont draw the heads/faces because its less fun (TO ME) to do that and i know ill end up focusing more on that than the learning of the body.

sometimes i draw the bodies with my ocs heads so i have more fun. when i first started learning legs i only drew disembodied ones.

im not saying to do dis and yes you have to leave your comfort zone to get better sometimes but you have to find what works for YOU... bc if you get too "uncomfortable" then u wont wanna do it at all (see again: i could force myself to draw a page of shoes but i genuinely just dont want to adn i dont care. maybe in a few years ill be obsessed with them. im king of not leaving my comfort zone. i love being comfortable. but i make it work)

however you Learn you can always expand upon it once u have the foundation! like how over the years ive added more little details to some forms (because i like seeing them!)

idk how i learned to get better at drawing fat but i recommend sources like fatphotoref, morpho's book on fat and skin folds, and (18+ recommendation) subreddits for nudes, especially if they're focused on fat people. i like this last one bc you can truly see a range of difference in body proportions and fat distribution etc as well as seeing how other people stylize such things

im going to be real with u and say i SUPER dont know how i learned folds. im actually still learning now that im exploring more fashion in the real world, but even now i kind of just guess from what i know theyre meant to look like. if i REALLY want it to look accurate ill wear a similar garment and use that as a ref and then keep that in my mental library. here's 2 examples i can think of where i really had to take a pic because my imagination wasn't cutting it (and even then the 2nd was exaggerated of course.) this seems like a "leaving the comfort zone" moment but it was truly fueled by curiosity and fascination more than anything, which is good. (but AGAIN. you could not get me to care this much about drawing shoes. so it really depends on You and your interests in order to make it fun.)

otherwise i kinda just guess 😭 this is where i excel at focusing on making something look Good instead of right. i just see what shapes look fun, sculpt them around the body...

morpho also has a clothing + folds book though, so i wld look there ^_^ perhaps try putting a subject you really enjoy into your favorite outfit for practice? stuff like that... that post about how improvement comes from being insanely obsessed with something is real u just gotta find and latch onto whatever that may be

[roo-brr]

Like I said in the tags of the other post...I have more 😈

‼️SHINYO again is by @sleepwalkersqueen from the BEAUTIFUL fic "Fear of You" oj Ao3, its bangin💥 you should read🧐👀 it 👹

1st pic is Smol Keigo in a dinosaur onesie!! I was looking at clothes for him on Pinterest and thought he'd enjoy and look cute. And THEN, lovely Ines @takami-flock suggested MATCHING WITH SHINYO?!!!!!! so I did that in the 2nd pic! 🤩 also using a reference pic if Pinterest cuz I thought the pic was kinda funny/silly icl.

These are the refs: (in order)

Drakengard OC I've been cooking up..( ´･ω･) Her name's uhhhhh Elka (might change tho) and her pact-partner's Chimera (or "a chimera", i might give it a name or maybe even seperate names for each head) :^) This prideful creature kinda tricked Elka into paying 3 "small" pact prices:

The snake took her right arm

The lion took her taste

The goat took her laughter

(they're all kind of being assholes and teasing Elka with their respective prices: the snake has her arm in place of its tongue, the goat laughs with her voice and the lion is a big glutton (while giving mukbang-esque commentary))

Elka realizes she's been scammed after meeting (a-and befriending...?👉👈) Arioch and pals.

More sketches/doodles/ranting below

1st pic's the 1st concept (a bit more mage(?)-like and self-inserty),

2nd's a clearer look at Chimera (used Dragon's Dogma's chimeras as loose reference, I'd imagine them to fight a bit similarly too (lion being kind of a physical attacker, goat's more magic-based and snake using poison or other status effects))

3rd's a ref pic, the shoulder pad and headband are tiny additions to this design (but she wears them only in combat/etc.)

Don't ask about their backstories, I do not know. (Okay, I may know a little🤏)

(and if these pact-bullshitteries are somehow impossible/disproven by the canon then I present y'all with the counterargument: nu-uh)

[restlessthio]

I'm back into aldnoah fandom at the moment 😌 I'm a big Slaine enjoyer but as someone who struggled with feeling emotions until I was like 25, I've grown a soft spot for Inaho over the years- so he can struggle with his life choices and have chronic issues and ptsd, as a treat 😌

(If you recognize the ref I used for the 2nd pic, you have good taste in art)

sphereland movie photodump ya ya yaaaaa

hex kept her bow and that honestly makes me so sick in the head. something tells me that this was meant to resemble her being unable to get over her grandpa after he died and the ship with old arthur in it flying away was implied to be hex finally letting go. or maybe im overthinking it idk

me when i scare someone so bad it sends them into a state of incomprehensible existence

she does NAWTTTT want u bro

you think they throw tomatoes at him when no one else is around?/J/J

puncto is so stupid i hate her and i love her at the same time very much. is that even a thing if its a strong feeling??

"ur a sphere!!!" Yes my beautiful theychild…… that is a Spher

he didnt even say sorry for leaving hex and arthur he just said "Curious…." british ass. id be pretty mad too if my new 2nd interdimensional yaoi grandfather left his boyfriend for saying something he thought was preposterous and never came back to us

THERE GOES MY BABYYYYYYYY

i just thought this part was funny.Me when i encounter the Evil Radioactive Fish Thing

the pointlanders are in the shape of a very badly drawn heart……<3

hex was so tiny as a kid. oh and also i just wanted to point out that little hexs lips were less visible and big hex doesnt have any lips. imo it makes the design like way better(ignoring big hexs blush)

Heh…..new rarepair?(rare as in not shipped(ignore the queen of the right shes not part of this sorry))

spherius just floated onto the screen in this part and didnt say anything

spherius rlly got SILENCED at this part. and STILL no apology(puncto getting all defensive as if he had anything to do with hex 20 years ago)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

(WHAT WAS HE SCREAMING FOR?????) (+ extra fail screenie)

go kylie go! youre doing good sweetie!!!/q

the way spherius said "differ" makes me feel funny. "i respectfully beg to DIFFAUH!!!!!!"

the resemblance is CRAZY

"YOU SUCK AT DRIVING!!!!!!!!!!!!"(also hex looks high)

the gasp here was random and unnecessary but hey anything for more screentime for hubble!

it mightve been because i was watching a low quality pirated copy on bilibili earlier but i never noticed that the oversphere was…..um…."cosplaying"?????(reflecting like a sentient mirror) hex.

is this why they turned more purple when speaking to spherius?

i think thats beautiful….i love u oversphere……

ilove how as soon as they found the portal

hex started flirting with the red masc nonbinary bisexual period clot and the hot topic booger nacho lesbill cipher

(i headcanon puncto as nonbinary because hex doesnt give off hetero vibes. trust me. i would know. yuri wins! (also, hex*puncto reminds me of sakaki x kaori azumanga daioh for some reason but it would be a bit confusing if i said a straight ship reminded me of a gay ship))

dr hubble wanted to take pics.. but wouldnt the camera he was searching for be 2 dimensional only? how is he supposed to take a picture in a place thats not the 2nd dimension im so lost

(hes not part of the polycrew *ba dum tss!* hes aro and hes not aero*ba dum tss!*)

how it feels to wake up to your alarm after you woke up 3 hours before it and fell asleep

The Oversphere

(IS THAT GOD?????/ref)

ALSO WHEN I FIRST SAW THIS PICTURE I STARTED LAUGHIGN SO HARD AND MY CHEST STILL HURTS

SHE LOOKS LIKE A FISH THAT DIED TO NO OXYGEN IN THE WATER BLESS HER SOUL (im making an aero*hex video out of this and i call dibs so no one else can)

EWWWWWW THEY HAVE NO FACESSSS

end of photodump ^_^ ^_^ ^_^
