Artist questions:

5, 6, 25

Artist ask game

5. how would you describe your art style?

Attempted to answer Ren here ♥︎ If anyone has a better suggestion for how to describe my style I'm all ears haha

6. favorite thing to draw?

It's a toss-up between hands and dynamic full-body poses! (:

25. what size canvas/paper do you use?

I usually start with the standard 'square' or A4 resolutions in procreate, so around 2000 pixels for the shortest width. Drew in paint tool sai for years and picked up a terrible habit of working on small canvases because the texture of the brushes didn't scale well. So until relatively recently i worked on like 400x600 pixel canvases LOL

In the interest of giving my hand a break, here's something a little less refined - I really just wanted to draw Erica in this top of mine but i couldn't not add her boys. the terrible trio of my heart.

First time drawing all 3 of them, looking forward to capturing them better in the future 🫰

I feel like this drawing possessed me, sat me down and painted itself

The irony in that the primary idea was to focus on the arms and give stiles a tattoo but i couldn't get it to work with the limited colorpalette - altered closeup with the tattoo included under the cut! [find my stuff on Redbubble!]

Used mare.blk's tattoo style because if hand tattoos weren't a no-go in my chosen profession, I would get one by them done in a heartbeat. So stiles gets one instead lol Also used a 3D program to figure out the pose and angles - the canon height difference is there but bc derek's leaning it looks like stiles is taller which i'm not mad about I'll get around to drawing more derek initiating things soon, apparently i have a lot of stiles taking action to get out of my system ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Finally sat down and edited the speedpaint of this into something watchable - original file was 10 minutes long bc i have 9 hours logged in the file (':

I always enjoy watching speedpaints myself so i hope you enjoy this as well!

with how much this site loves its writer ask games, im astounded ive never seen one for artists, soooo

In case more people are curious: Amazingly enough, the dwarf running t-shirt I bought a decade ago is still available! (although i can't say if it's the same shop) The water bottle (which is my favorite) is currently out of stock but they've had restocks previously, so keep an eye out!

Stiles' pants are, unfortunately, a limited release from cloakbrand that I got in a blind box a few years back

Engaging in the time-honored tradition of drawing characters in your own clothes - workout edition :] running and powerlifting are my go-to activities

What I drew Derek in is probably the only matchy workout clothes I own, I usually go for comfort lol

it's WIP wednesday my dudes!

the as-always inspired file names are 'car nap' ('2 kinds of backseat nappers - the arms-and-legs-crossed and the ragdoll corpse' with more music headcanons), 'pool baseball' (an excuse to draw the body types i imagine for the boys), 'lofi' (self-indulgent cover for my Stiles playlist on spotify lol), and 'iA2' (2nd it's alive sequence) - last is a shot of the comic I'm working on, blocking in colors for the current page [:

derek may be my favorite character on the show but stiles is clearly my favorite to draw LOL. he's just a funny little guy.

webcomic hosting sites

i am tinkering with the idea of starting what'd be a longer comic, but i'm out of touch enough that i am only now finding out that smackjeeves shut down ages ago despite having a comic i updated weekly for years on there LOL

whether you're a reader or creator - any recommendations to hosting sites?

I've been drawing over screencaps to try to figure out how to capture stiles, and I could not get it to resemble him with a neutral face, and have been having much more fun capturing silly expressions! Wanted to share some of my favorites, the middle one especially had me cackling. These are drawn over screencaps and usually just for my own studies, but I thought others might get a laugh out of them too :)

More naps for the boys (:

My headcanon is Derek has a beat-up old gameboy color (scratched up, the battery cover's missing, etc) that somehow survived the fire - maybe it was in a storage somewhere.

might line and render this later, but i liked the color combo so you also get this version <3

Dedicated to @renmackree who is the best hypeman, i appreciate you!
