 This is actually a re-drawing of a prompt I drew for a truth or dare once. I quite liked the concept.

Thought this turned out pretty bland, so I added some digital shading effects to try and spice it up a bit.

DAY 13:

Spoiler

  - - Inside a Shell - -

DAY 15:

Spoiler

 

  Oh look, stupid sketchy fan-art because I had visitors show up unannounced and I didn't have much time to work today. Which is to say, I'm happy to hang out with my brothers, but I'm very unhappy with the quality of this picture, haha.

DAY16:

Spoiler

  - - Law of Feathers - -

  Tried my hand at digital colouring again just for funsies. Didn't turn out to well, but better than I would've hoped, consider I did this with a touchpad. :T

DAY 17:

Spoiler

  - - Somber Sun Feast - -

  Cartoony polar bear eating a cartoony bird.

DAY 18:

Spoiler

  - - Through Woods and Hills - -

DAY 22:

Spoiler

  - - Scale Bae - -

 

Did you know that pengolins have tongues longer than their bodies? You do now!

DAY 23:

Spoiler

 

 - - Away we ride! ...maybe? - -

I met a boy today who had a pet horse. In his words "He's a nice horse - he let's me get on his back. He just doesn't go anywhere."

DAY 24:

Spoiler

 

  - - Family Time - -

 

  This picture contains three things I'm bad at drawing: people interacting, children, and laying down poses. Lawdy, lawdy.

DAY 25:

Spoiler

 

  - - Young Lad - -

 Checklist of tropes to make things looks Greek:

• Drape-y clothes, check.
• Those square-shaped curlicue things, check.
• Big ol' flat noses, check.

 I am a master of represent other cultures.

DAY 26:

Spoiler

 

 

  - - Lovely Eggs - -

 

More marker background practice.

DAY 27:

Spoiler

 

  - - In My Arms - -

  More family fluff so I can practice drawing children... and boy, can I say I don't like how this turned out. The boy's anatomy in general looks like a bit of a mess. The slight birds eye view turned out pretty good on the dad, tho.

DAY 28:

Spoiler

 

  - - Moostache - -

A friend requested me to draw him a portrait of himself for use on social media sites, so I whipped this up for him. Excellent practice for me seeing as I'm not well versed in the area of facial hair.

DAY 29:

Spoiler

 

  - - Galaxy Beast - -

He is the King of the Cosmos. He is the Queen of the stars.

Forever and always. The royal Beast of the Galaxy.

Spoiler

 

  - - The Wishing Tree - -

PS: This was heavily inspired by some beautiful watercolour backgrounds in the game Hatoful Boyfriend: Holiday Star.

DAY 31:

Spoiler

 

  - - Grand Finale - -

Going full circle, baby! Gotta end this the same way it started - with cuddling dragons!

 

There we go! Happy Halloween all! <3

Thank you so much! <3 I actually have a pretty unsteady hand, so I go back over my lines multiple times to get it thick + more even. It's more time consuming though. ;w;

  Tbh, I think a lot of people can make the sketchy lineart look work, and I think you pull it off excellently. Great use of crosshatching! My favorite is day three and four - the croissant and crepes are beautifully rendered.

DAY 5:

Spoiler

- - Bloody Lies - -

Only one page this time because I had to work today. I like how the blood turned out, tho!

[Tertiusviducius]

That blood is really nicely rendered... It actually looks edible... Kinda like you slapped some cherry candy substance to the picture there.

The references I looked at were actually red paint, (because googling 'blood spills on a white background' might yield images I don't want to see. ) so that might explain the candy-red nature.
