#composition and pose and expression

Your 3d models are really cool! Susan and Molly look beautiful :-)

Thank you so much! I can't take all the credit-- the models themselves are purchased from the Daz Studio site and are made by the wonderful artists selling in the marketplace there. I just play around with them until they have the look I want and render them!

alright xiv folks I've made myself curious. what is your Thing in gposes?

Not necessarily what you're best at but like. What are you drawn to the most when you're looking at gposes? I'll go first.

Mine is expressions. I'm obsessed with expression work, like how the tiniest details can completely change the emotion you're trying to portray. I love to look at a face and try and figure out what gimbals OP has messed with to get it that way! It's a fun puzzle that can sometimes give me ideas to try when I go posing next.

What about y'all? What sparks joy for you personally?

[kokoasci]

I HAVE TO KNOW (not really just curious)

Where do you get ideas for your art? Does motivation just come and go or do you have some sort of system for it? Your art is beautiful and I love how you draw sigma!

oo this is a fun one 👀 and thank you!!

honestly my biggest motivation is music 😭 usually every piece ive drawn has a song that im trying to fit to! im just now realizing ive never really. talked about this before but when im thinking about drawing something i usually fit it to an aesthetic or mood i want to convey, and so if a song or aesthetic really inpires me i will draw something to fit that :D i can talk about this more if anyone is interested but i highly recommend drawing to sound it helps me a lot

other times i will just look on pinterest for references and pick one 😭 it really does just depend on my current mood + how much time i have irl that affects exactly what i draw

Friday - Storms | Best Scene

This is once again from the Tokyo Mew Mew crossover, where I made the ancient humans the Aliens are descended from Lemurian space refugees. And seeing as the Aliens in TMM have cool powers, I gave Fontaine cool powers. She's basically a less powerful Storm, right now she can only electrocute people (Like Proteus when he tries to kidnap her little brother again) but eventually she can do wind, and with a lot of effort given the distance between sea level and cloud layer, full on storms. Ant is a little jealous because he only gets the basic abilities of teleportation and levitation that Fontaine and Will also get, though Will is not particularly great at either.

(Alpheus also has a few alien powers but most of the AU is focused on him bc he's my fave, Fontaine can have her time in the spotlight here)

Anyways look at what I was drawing when the story teaser came out

[holopossums]

i think it's kind of interesting that i'm like many artists where i can replicate the Rise TMNT style To An Extent, but i really don't try too hard to make it look Exactly like the show either. i have little traits in my art that i don't want to lose because i like them and they're uniquely my own. i like to look at my art and see clearly that i made it, not another person.

Hidden Figures #1 (Wake by Richard Serra) || III.

As I continued acting out what I was feeling, slinking my way between, in and out of Wake's walls, more and more I felt the sculpture reflecting to me the experience of being an outsider in this city, in some groups I found myself among: Beautiful individuals that had come together in some kind - a lifestyle, a shared lived experience, a history - who'd stood with each other for years. Their curves and waves reflected each other; their identities tied to each other. There's room for others to pass through, to admire them, visit - but the pattern for fully entering and remaining in the group's fold is clear.

.

They, of course, don't say that to prospective joiners explicitly - just as, of course, the structures of Wake didn't expect me to become a metal structure like they were. And, of course, each individual, each wall, is unique in its own way. But as I flowed between various groups, there would always come a moment where I stepped outside of the conversation, looked around, and saw all the same figures in sync....and then myself: Present among them, but still not flush with their surfaces. I saw the shapes they made, the same shapes they may have expected me to have. And then I saw myself, sticking out from between them.

.

But later, as I looked through the photos that came from my interactions with Wake, I saw how - even as my curves and angles contrasted the figures around me - despite the feelings I felt at the time they were taken, my presence was still a meaningful element in the landscape, even when I was balled up within it. I saw how the movements and stories my body told read even clearer when projected against the mirrored figures behind me. I saw what I brought to the scenery. My physical presence may had been small but it was strong, despite its expression of vulnerability - perhaps even because of it. And from capture to capture, I saw my own worth in the photos and it reminded me of the worth I possess in real life.

.

In retrospect, I have to be grateful for those moments where I felt like, even in company, I was all alone. Because moments of solitude can also bring about moments of clarity. And as I pondered my feelings in my moments of smallness and lonesomeness amongst Wake's walls, I realized that just because I felt small, I was not insignificant. Just because I felt like I wasn't fitting in, it didn't mean I didn't know how to or that I never would because something about me wasn't right.

.

Maybe I felt like I wasn't fitting in because I wasn't supposed to. And I started to think that maybe standing out wasn't such a bad thing...

[Image description:] A drawing of a human version of Alastor from Hazbin Hotel standing in front of a fireplace with multiple dead deer heads on the wooden walls. One of the heads is rght behind him, above the fireplace, making it appear that its antlers are poking through Alastor's own head. He has his arms open and proud smile, and wears a white longsleeved shirt with high-waisted brown pants and suspenders. He holds a knife and theres blood on it, the walls, and a bit on his clothes. There is a shotgun over the fireplace. The artist's signature, "Liberum Alas", is placed on the top right corner of the fireplace. [End ID.]
