Wow!! Your art came out so lovely! I love the type of expressions you did on the gals, they look calm/introspective/content which is super pretty. Having a hard time choosing what I like 'best' about mine because it all looks beautiful-the face, expression, and colors... Great job on the hair too-I know curls can be annoying to draw. I love all of it, thank you!~ emotion_bigheart

Would you mind sharing the brand of your markers with me? I'm currently in the marker. Also what 'type' paper did you need to use for it to blend better? I've never used fancy markers before but have always wanted to.

smile Thanks! You were a pleasure to draw!

I've had a load of Letraset Pro-markers for a good while but I've never been able to get them to blend properly, turns out that 'normal' sketchbook paper is just to absorbent; I bought a packet of 120gsm cardstock and it has a bit of a shiny finish; the markers sit on the top a bit so you can blend them a bit better.
I think the trick is putting down the lighter colour first then adding the darker colour and then scrubbing like fury with a blender pen (or the lighter colour) xd I have a feeling I might still be doing it wrong rofl

And as an extra annoyance the very expensive liner pen I bought smudges like crazy when I colour over it with the markers *headdesk*

Thank you for the info! Well, just based on what I see I'd say your method is working! At first glance they're blended so well I thought they were watercolors.
Have you tried 'Sakura Pigma Micron Pens'? On sale at Michael's for 5 bucks right now. They don't bleed with my watercolors so don't think they'd bleed with markers.

I noticed your previous post about 3 seconds after I posted xd
I haven't tried those but I just ordered some off amazon so I'll let you know how I get on smile Thank you!

Managed to get a lineart WIP done! It started as a chibi, then tried for semi-real, but I think the end result would be classified as 'cartoon'? I'm open to critiques if anyone wants to give. I especially struggle with arms and legs.

They asked for 'lovestruck and excited'.

Loved the pose! Great use of arms (Both pairs lol)!
Great face, too! Very cartoon-y. I think she totally looks 'lovestruck and excited'. Are you going to color it? : )

Thank you for the feedback!! Yep yep I always color. The drawing takes me so long I always figure might as well go all the way. Plus, this OC happens to have a gorgeous color scheme so I'm excited to do it.

No worries! I tend to only notice things I'm @'ed in myself. Awesome! I hope they work out for ya! And I hope Amazon doesn't send you exploded pens. I read in the feedback that happens and they won't replace for some reason, somethin' about them blaming the way it was shipped from Japan so it's not Amazon's problem... Weirdness.

Cool! Mind if I ask what you're studying? I never pursued a higher education so always curious about what others are doing.

Ikr? It makes me sad that I bought a 3 pack at full price a few months ago and then my sissy got me a 6 pack so I'm set for a looooooong time. Maybe for life since I'm both gentle and lazy, lol. If they have a colored marker set on sale that'd be a dif story though... -sneaks back to look-
        not at all! currently pre-med and undecided ab major (but considering a double major in biochem and chinese studies)~
        at this point higher ed becomes more and more overrated but idk HAHA

        aww, better to have more than not enough! you'll just be extra ready if your pens run out.
        haha, yeah! make sure to keep out for any other sales that you could snatch up *v*

Name: Sei'ku (ft. inspirational moodboard)

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Pay attention to:
✧ Serene / Serious / Prideful are his Big Moods
✧ His hands are essentially (4) big bird talons and not very humanoid at all
✧ His scars are Zuko-adjacent burn scars
✧ The scarred eye is a paler shade of gold
✧ His wings are solid physical feathers but they are oddly transparent now. The limbs can be seen silhouette through the feathers in the right light
✧ There are tiger eye beads woven into his braids
✧ His spear is slightly curved. Essentially think of taking a feather and making a blade based around it. Lots of wind/feather motifs in its design. The three white feathers on it are very big and white
Others: Feel free to redesign his clothes as long as the color scheme remains and they have a monastic approach to them. Things where he seems meditative or getting ready for a fight are always awesome.

Name: Felgra (ft. inspirational moodboard)

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Pay attention to:
✧ Eternally pissed off and annoyed with at least one person always
✧ She is not young! She is in her 40s and has seen some s**t
✧ Her build is a cross between Yasha (strong/could break a man) and Lagertha (feminine/still could break a man)
✧ Hair is a pale blonde. Don't feel beholden to the exact colors of the avi, its more of a guide
✧ The markings on her skin go down her limbs and are part of her skin, they are harsh (but NOT thick/heavy) lines that swirl and taper off to points
✧ Her hair is welcome to be played with as long as there are braids. She may shave the side, have small braids, or one large one. It's very viking themed
✧ Her silver panpipes are important to her and she always has them within reach
✧ The fur cloak is also something very cherished
Others: She's adopted a dire wolf pup and is basically the annoyed mom friend. She carries a curved scimitar and a shaman-like staff fairly often. Feel free to go off base for the outfit as long as its to theme.

Name: Moony (ft. inspirational moodboard)

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Pay attention to:
✧ Soft goth / More likely to be disappointed in you than ever angry / Sweet summer child of death
✧ The whites of her eyes are actually black
✧ Her tail's the same color as the rest of her skin. It's not whip thin, it's thicker at the base and tapers down to the spade
✧ Skull/BoneRuby motifs are very important to her and her goddess. PLEASE feel free to decorate her ears and horns with jewelry. She is known for wearing a black skull ring with ruby eyes
✧ Her book (The Ruby Tome) carries these same themes and has a lot of cramped dark writing and death imagery due to the nature of her goddess
✧ She is not overly petite nor is she thicc, she's in that curvy middle ground
Others: She's a big softy and tends to wear things that dont emphasis her figure. She'll wear chain armor beneath large shawls to be unassuming. As a cleric, she's big on rituals to her goddess and being supportive of others

Pay attention to:
✧ Chaos in person form / Saccharine savage smiles / Deceptive / Mean / Your Hela/Morgana archetype brand of evil
✧ She is WHITE. Her skin is WHITE. Her Eyes are WHITE. Like beyond albino.
✧ Her hair isn't perfect. It's a little bit wild and choppy
✧ Kind of looks haunted and like she's running on 900 things of caffeine
✧ Her scarf acts as her hood when she needs to go in direct sunlight due to sensitivity with her eyes
✧ Ears are pointed like an elf
✧ Her teeth are a little bit sharp but her smile is sharper. Nails are also a bit sharper
✧ She has a jagged scar on her left forearm
✧ Her dagger is a kukri, so a curved blade, and the blade itself is a deep deep black
✧ ✧ ✧ The kukri's name is Shayd and it talks to her telepathically and sometimes tries to control her movements. She back talks it endlessly and shows no respect
✧ She is sometimes draped in aesthetic chains (sleeves/capelet things) as a chosen of an ancient god known as the Chained One
Others: Aren is confident and sly and a big ol lying liar. She has adopted a cult and likes to seem like she knows what she's doing but boy she's making this all up as she goes. Currently trying to murder a god.
