Hi! Making an article to explain myself since the post may be too long.


I'm trying to make fluffy fabric! A new thing I have in mind is to give sensations when you look at certain parts of the character, so you have a more specific feeling about them.

I think for some characters, the best hints are what that character itself is searching for in their outfit and that's also what a lot of real people do! For example, here Naoki is wearing a fluffy and cozy scarf, and it hints that he may be a person that searches for a lot of coziness in his life, like in what he wears, some hobbies and his opinions in life. Does it makes sense? I hope so

It certainly adds more expression and realism if you think about your OCs like they're real people, with hobbies, maybe a family, even blood groups!

Note that the character creation revolves around a lot of things that may have nothing to do with the story you want to tell, but it helps build a more realistic and "all round" character, instead of making up a fast, plane character that only serves for the purpose of your story plot.

Feel free to use these free advices for the creation of your OCs if you want I'm not going to tell you that it will be easy in the start, but you're gonna get used to making up ideas and you'll give your immagination and creativity a big boost.

And practice makes you perfect, they say. So, what are you waiting for?

Hello! Today is Shinji Day! I finished the reworking yesterday evening. Let me know how it came out!

Sneak peek on my current drawing

I'm making the 3rd day prompt: "an OC's friend". And since I'll draw Shiro, I might as well draw Shinji, too! So... it's time for a BIG drawing (A3 sheet).

Hello!!

Today I reworked Kin! Someone that I didn't draw for a LOOOONG time!!

Kin is a bit of pain in the back, but she's right. At least, when it comes to defend people!

Hello! I finally got some guts to rework Seiichi! It's been a while, isn't it? Haha... and he's FABULOUS of course! Tell me what you think

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Hello! Along with the flow chart I decided to do a 30 days OC challenge with my OCs, so I can become better and faster while I draw them.

Day 1: a simple OC sketch (San, without anything strange)

I know, I know, The reworking of Aki here didn't go so well... I think I'll try with the main design again

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

Day 2: Sadao as a child.
