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!

Some progresses on the illustration I was talking about five hours ago.

What do you think? I was making it digital when I decided to make a timelapse.

Hi! I had another illustration in mind, for another one of my OCs. Context: Seiichi is an OC of mine that I always put in background when I'm reworking things. Idk, I think I made a good character but he gives me chills. I've found it hard to finish this.

Hi!

Today's drawing is about a rework for a moodboard I already made. I didn't like how I made the drawing that day, so I'm making another one. Can you guess who they are?

Hint: they're holding the pipe like they want to brawl they're very angry!

Hi! Finally finished with San's illustration! What do you think?

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.

Working digitally on Shiro's drawing for the moodboard!

I think I will start to draw more digitally and less traditional. But... I LOVE so much drawing on paper!

Do you like drawing on paper too? How the HELL do you deal with it??

Someone I know asked me to print the illustration and hang it in their house!

I'm so happy
