haven't been on the forums in a while but I have finally have new art to share!
this is my first ever drawing I've done on Procreate!! it's extremely satifsying to draw on an iPad, and I'm so happy I finally have one, it's lifechanging ;_;

I was originally going to post her on Halloween but since I won't be home, here she is a little early - I really wanted to draw a spooky girl for October, so who better than Sally?

have a spooky Halloween <3

...I'm a little ashamed to come online only to post new art, but at least here's something?
so here's another drawing done on procreate (I honestly don't think I'll ever go back to photoshop now, procreate is so much easier to use and most importantly, so much more FUN)
this is my OC Selene, that I designed two years ago, she's my cosmos queen and I love her <3

(as always, click for full size on DA)



just for fun, here's a comparison of the first times I drew her in the beginning of 2018 vs now:
I know I have so much more to learn but I'm quite proud of this improvement ^^

I am LIVING for your art, you're my fave artist on TBT so happy to see you posting!
 
I remember knowing you as the signature-queen but you really gotta pick up traction for your art, its so beautiful.

Do you have any tips on lineless art? How do you do it so well without it ending up super flat?

woww thank you <3 (I sometimes miss doing the signatures, but the free time it has given me to draw is lifechanging!)
I actually struggled with my lineless drawings looking flat at first, because I didn't add a lot of shadows or highlights or even details. The more I practiced the more details I started to add, first I practiced adding more shadows where I thought it would make the drawing feel more "3D", and I also tried to add more lines where similar colors overlapped (for example, adding a line between the neck and head, or on clothes). Lately I've been experimenting more with highlights, I used to add them in soft light or in a decreased opacity but I've found in my last pieces that leaving it at 100% adds a little something to the finished piece, giving it a bit more life! (You can see what I mean in the comparison with my last drawing)
I hope that helps, I'm not very good at explaining ;_;
(I want to specify that I'm not saying at all that "flat" drawings are bad, in fact some of my favorite artists use only a little shadows and the finished drawings still look amazing, this is all a matter of style and personal preference ^^)

Love the Raichu and Catepie!

thank you! I had so much fun with that one ^^

bro ur art!!! makes my day <3

ahhh thank you <3

Okay big question:

How did you get a feel of human anatomy? Do you look at pose references? :0 Cuz like I?m struggling big time to get a good grasp of how the human body is supposed to feel,, I don?t mean anatomically realistic but more of getting the flow of movements and such. How do you do it? You?ve improved big in that aspect from 2018! <3

ooh do you really think so? that means so much to me because it's actually the biggest problem I have lmao I struggle with it A LOT, it takes me a very long time to finish a sketch, I have trouble making the body look "right" (and I keep noticing mistakes when it's too late to fix them lol)
but yes, I ALWAYS look at pose references, I try to never start a drawing without one or several exact poses (like, a full body or one for the upper body, one for the head, hands, etc) that I can replicate. A few times I've tried drawing without them but I can't make it work, I always need to come back and look for references. For the one of Selene I actually had my sister pose the way I wanted my character to look so I could know what her arms and hands would look like ahah
I also practice sometimes by tracing over a reference photo to get a feel of how the body looks and that has also helped a little.
I wish I could be of more help, your question is one I want to ask many of the artists I follow ^^'
 
here's my last drawing of 2019!!
it's Rey from Star Wars because she will always own my entire heart, and will always be one of my favorite fictional characters. and yes the sequel trilogy had faults, but i will forever be thankful to it for bringing her into my life <3

this was done on procreate and the reference is her character poster from tros.

i'll share my summary of art tomorrow!
as always click for full size <3

here's my summary for the year! i'm overall quite happy with it, i managed to draw at least one piece per month. most importantly i got an ipad for my birthday in september and drawing on procreate has been really lifechanging, especially because my old laptop/photoshop were incredibly slow ._. procreate is extremely easy to use and a real joy!

i feel like my style has solidified into what i want it to be this year, i have a lot more to learn of course, this new year i will try to draw a lot more so i can improve on anatomy, maybe practice backgrounds? maybe men at some point? lmao

onward to 2020 \o/
