Sketchbook (share your daily/random doodles!)

A couple more sketches for my art challenge (again). Rachel isn't a favorite, but I really like how I drew her. Then there's Nick, who is one of my favorites.

it’s billie eilish, i know i draw her a lot but the proportions are way off 😭

the hand is good considering the fact i usually can’t draw hands. the pose was taken from a performance where she was singing into a microphone and pointing at something.
 
I was talking to @/Shellzilla_515 abt me potentially making my own plushies and he was wondering what a Laurie plushie might look like, and I immediately pictured her in my head so I drew her. she would honestly make a good plushie haha
(in case you don't know, she's one of my OCs!)

I'm actually working on a commission rn, but in the meantime I've been playing New Super Mario Bros 2 a lot for the last week or so (as in, I have probably 30 hours in already haha) so I was inspired to draw raccoon Mario 😄

dunno when I'll finish this (ofc my commission is my priority rn) but I'm pretty excited for it, I like how it's turning out already! plus I need to redeem myself after I butchered my poor boy in a drawing I did last year OTL
 
Here's my Splatoon OC's in the meantime. They're basically side characters.

They are a group of journalists and their goal is to reveal the truth about the missing Great Zapfish.
sidecharacters.png


The tall one on the left is a very serious journalist. He is mostly skeptical about how the news should be covered and he dislikes how overly sensationalized the news coverage can be. His written articles are mostly straight to the point. The articles he posted online are well received by readers for his writing and his straight to the point style of the topic at hand, but poorly received by huge news publishers because it wasn't "dramatic" or "sensational" enough.

He joined the group due to the fact he thinks that the "Great Zapfish" story is mostly a cover up of the true story and that there's someone out there who rescued the great zapfish (and someone who is the culprit for stealing the great zapfish, of course).


The small one in the middle is the only member who isn't an inkling. He is a sea anemone and usually is the most curious of the three.
But he is mostly curious about the existence of the Octo Valley and Octo Canyon.
His initial encounter with the Inkopolis' sewage itself described as
"An old man peeking from the sewers looking for someone who'll solve the zapfish crisis".
He encountered it from Spyke's area to avoid being spotted.
His encounter leads to him making a hypothesis is that there is a perpetrator behind the zapfish incident and that the octarians still exists. He also analyzed that there's a complete underground system under Inkopolis or in the distant mountain in which it was "shaped like an octopus". He is a hardcore theorist and a passionate historian.

He joined the group because he wants to know more about the Octo Valley.


The third one on the right is the leader of the group. And believes that secret agents exist and they're the ones solving the zapfish crisis. He is the kindest and the most passionate member of the group. He does interviews to witnesses and research on his own to back up his claim that someone out there is saving the Great Zapfish.

His encounter and interview with Oz months after the Deepsea Metro incident left him with the new perspective of the zapfish and the octolings story. He helped Oz (Agent 8) tour around the surface especially the city of Inkopolis and find a new place for him to live after the interview. Both Oz and him are friends but not as close as Callisto (Agent 4). When he talks or talks about him, he usually calls Agent 8 by his real name which is Oz.

He came from a fairly rich family and his father is a the founder of the famous newspaper. Despite the upbringing, he usually walks around the city. And as the result, knows most of the places in Inkopolis especially the exact name and locations of every area and every building and the purpose behind it.

He founded the group out of the fact that he believes that the Great Zapfish didn't free itself from being missing and that there's more to the story.

These two were proposed sketches, but the first one was more fleshed out and better matched the client’s personality. The final results will look different, but I wanted to preserve these sketches here.

I’ve been struggling with my faces lately, mostly feeling insecure about how I draw eyes and how plain my style is… but then I popped off these two and felt super proud so ha! Art is such a fickle business.
 
And I'm back with more OC concepts. (more info about her under spoiler):

Her title goes by the Goose Queen,
She is the goddess of myths and folklore.

A Mother-like figure that possesses great power over the world's destinies. A powerful being that holds the essence of life in the egg-shaped gems. Her scepter is her main weapon, although she can conjure great and powerful magic out of her own hands. Her egg gems are her main form of attack, with each egg containing a somewhat limited scale version of the universe. If an enemy manages to interfere her, she can entrap an enemy with one of her gems. Or blow up a "new universe" on the target.

although she can travel through universes and foresee the future with accuracy, she does not hold power and dominion in the essence of time.

Her egg-like gems also serves as a form of "hero creator". Creating heroic characters and breathing new life out of a single egg.

She is also responsible for the fairy godmother's creation. And the legendary weapons that were featured in folklore and mythology.

The Goose Queen can shape shift herself into a goose or any disguise depending on the location. The goose form is her primary disguise form.

Despite her immense power, she is merciful, motherly, and benevolent walking with humanity and it's authors. She cares for humanity and their stories especially stories of heroism. She refuses to use her power on enacting destruction, ever if her power can destroy things on an almost cosmic level.

Design notes:
-She is loosely based of "Mother Goose" which is a fictional author figure prominent in fairy tales and nursery rhymes.
-I designed her with angelic or god like figures in mind. I also designed her as a supreme yet approachable mother figure.
 
Continuation concept sketch of Goose Queen's appearance. This is her alternate outfit and disguise form. For the outfit design, I was mainly inspired by 80's formal office wear with shoulder pads! 😊

In this form, she usually goes by M.G. (Manager Goose)

Another one for the sketch dump; this time rejected by the customer in favor of something more provocative:

I followed all the design notes on the character’s ToyHouse, but after discussing things back and forth, we ultimately chose a (tastefully) nude concept— which I can’t share here, but it’s also quite a challenge. I’m having fun, but very definitely out of my element. I don’t often get busty characters , or really anyone outside the normal mannequin range…
