Finally done!
It probably took me close to 20 hours in total and I couldn't really tell you why. lol
I guess 3 hours per character isn't the worst, but I wish it could be less.
 
Nice looking pieces, guys! I'm going to try and draw daily, too. To varying degrees of quality, I'm sure. And I'm already behind, but hopefully will be able to catch up soon. Dunno how long I last, but it'll be a good challenge.

i updated krita and now it's having issues with the eye dropper and lasso tools - they both seem to be activating about two centimeters away from the actual cursor, and i got tired of trying to deal with that so i'm calling it a night.
 
i am gonna start drawing but i also just spent like a coupel fo horus doing this so i coudl stare at my recently finished thing... (full res detail of each character face)

do any of you have that problem? a sort fo wistful contemplative mood over your own works? lol

i leave typos because i am unpressioanfl mood
 
I feel like I'd end up doing something I regret if I did.

it ain't arts if it ain't 80% regret and 20% shifty "well i will file this under 'done' and move on anyway" :D
i just ended up spending all my time talking to my art/rp buddies instead and now am sleep. i will draw.. in morning!

I mean I feel like I'd end up stabbing some shit or marking all over on something I've put a lot of time in over the past couple weeks. I think it's a bad idea to try while I'm angry.

Oh, I had a moment like that. I wrecked a painting I made out of anger when it was supposed to be like a piece in memory of my dead grandfather and it was just kind of a ":l huh.. i should have taken more pictures before going nuts" moment after the deed was done.

Well, you know your emotional outlets best! I don't actually use art for much personal emotional processing because it feels contrived to me (I am just not that kind of artiste lol), so it'd be wasted efforts for me to do anything while angry or in a bad mood too. I'd go reset my mood with food and sleep.
However, maybe it would be good for others to vent and process (maybe on a new blank canvas or sheet.. or photocopy/duplicate!), and maybe that process itself creates a more compelling piece of work (that whatever inspirational emotional crescendo spark i kind of lack lol).
 
^ so cool!
i always stop to look at giant eye things because of the creepy factor and also just the sensation of dry eyes

i got tired. otherwise i'd try to finish this lineart today and ruin my sleep lol:

This looks official! Is it for a book?


Snail girl looks ultra slimey, love it
 
Hey, nice sketches, H.! And I see you've revived the Portrait Thread... I might have to pop in there.

Thanks, man. Trying to get the creative engine running again. Or...it's just an excuse to procrastinate from work/book stuff. :P

And, yes! Seemed like it was time for it to live again. Would love it if you popped by and dropped some of your sweet, sweet arts in there. It's good fodder for the one a day thing, at the least!

Yes, trying to keep myself drawing even if I don't feel like it, even just a bit.

As promised, a crossover from the Portrait Thread:
