This is supposed to be a Halloween outfit, but fuck it, I’ll wear this around my apartment.
christmas season in st5 and theyre having a christmas party clinging to a sense of normalcy and blue christmas is playing while will looks longingly at mike across the room who is conversation with their friends but catches will looking and smiles but then will turns away shy and mike keeps looking at him as the song ends *cue mike contemplation/determination face* next scene is him sidling up to will later while he stands by himself to recharge while looking out the window at the snow (/spores lmao) in a dark room only lit up by the rainbow christmas tree lights and mike's all teasy and on the tipping edge of flirty making will pleasantly surprised and flustered, mike happy to have caught will alone and we can hear christmas music and everyone else talking and laughing in the next room
You are your mother’s child.
saw people talking about how the deliberate hand/face touching in this scene and had to draw it to for my mental health <3
I move that if byler isn't canon we take @bookinit02 's 'I know the end' series as canon s5 instead
Sorry if it's been asked already (I always ask this to people with really cool artstyles so I mightve asked you myself already and straight up forgot LOL) but I was wondering, do you have any advice/tips/tutorials for drawing full bodies?
I just think you have a really cool artstyle and ive always struggled making fanart (other than semi-realistic screencap redraws) because I still have to learn how to stylise full bodies😅 (faces too but those im a bit better at).
Anyway, ive also been following u since your scorbus era and it's been so cool to see all the growth and different fandoms youve gone through! (I myself am a big byler🫡).
Sorry this is long, have a nice day/night🥰 and feel free to ignore this if you want, no worries!
answering both of this together because i feel like my answer is going to be similar to both of them:
keep live/quick sketching people and poses! it’s a fantastic way to practice anatomy and when you speed up your process, it helps you figure out how full bodies look in your style because it’s your immediate instinct to draw a certain way! you don’t even need a live model to pose for you. the internet is full of incredible images and stock photos that are always fun to sketch. If you’d like a place to start, Adorka Stock is a deviant art page full of stock references made for artists.
I’m always and forever an advocate for quick sketching because when I started doing live sketches about a year ago they looked like this:
And these are my sketches from a couple of months ago:
The difference may not be massive to most people but I feel like my grasp on anatomy AND my line weight has improved drastically since. I feel more confident going into a piece knowing what the poses are going to be like in my head.
Apart from that, it’s normally widely accepted to reference poses for your art as long as you’re not tracing over someone else’s work. my favourite thing to do is self reference with photos or a mirror because then i can get exactly the pose that i want.
I hope this helped!
