    Heyaaa. Some news regarding what I'm currently working on. DO YOU SEE THE VISION?! Well, it's a simple illustration for one of my novel chapter that takes place in a café. Aoyama is taking picture of her three friends which is Ryuu at the back and Aosa beside her. I feel like Aoyama's hand...

    You'd think that I found how Aoyama should look already, but noooooo Here is a totally-not canon, guilty mode, long haired Aoyama. I really should just decide how she will look like already. :er_what_s: I find it impressive how simple shadings attracts me more as a viewer, and an artist. As...

    Bought a small desk lamp for when I turn off my room light, and now I questioned myself why I didn't do this earlier. I'm deadass memorizing my laptop keyboard layout since it doesn't have a backlight.

    What's the most difficult thing about writing story content?

    I don't know if this counts, but I just struggled to start a chapter. Like, what could be a good starting dialogue/monologue or narrative to the content of the chapter. It sometimes took me an hour of scheming trying to start a chapter on a good pace. The rest of the content itself will flow...

    Happy New Year. No Aoyama this time, instead here's my OC, well, just me, I guess. I swear the hands is so hard to make. Insane, it made me went insane. The shading for the clothes is awful, I have no idea how to shade so random shape is good enough for me. THE HANDS, IT'S HAUNTING ME. The...

    The copy-paste is smart. But what if... You close one eye so I only have to focus on one eye :blob_shade: Honestly I think I overdid it for the hair, what even is that.

    Why, indeed. I'll add one when I made a half-body one.:blob_paint: Pon? Never heard of it. I do like this art style though, didn't know what its called :blob_cringe: Forget the light source, or I just ignore it completely. Also I just realized the eyelashes are the wrong way. I just can't...

    My college grade is cooked. Anyway, here is another version. While the proportion is okay (except the shoulders), something feels lacking. I'm not a fan of the color pick as well. The eyes seems a little too big. I swear it wasn't that big before. It looks goofy as well, might switch back to...

    Goofy faces. While I was aiming for a silly face because the character itself has this silly-energetic persona in the novel, let's just say it came out a little to silly. Maybe I'll try learning more about proportions. Thank you. I swear the lineart wasn't that bad when I made it. It somehow...

    Updated version Still not the look I'm looking for. But hey, at least she had expression now, albeit weird. Also she got a tan, for some reason. It was meant for a slightly side profile posture, but the face seems out of proportion, and the hair made it like it's a front profile. Thanks. I'm...

    Actually yeah, the eyes do looks a bit funky. I'll try following your tips. It's too hard for me to make a half, or even a full body design right now, my friend. I barely picked the pen, not even a day after it arrives :er_what_s: I'll try to tell more story about a character by design in the...

    Look what I'm doing instead actually finishing my novel. Girl is supposed to be one of my characters from the novel, looks absolutely disappointed on how I created her image. I said "supposed" to be because I wanted to flesh out the character design more, this ain't her in her prime looks, or so...

    I guess so. I'd like my novels to have some illustration, so this might be a good starting point to learn. Maybe I should get a stylus pen as well, got the tab ready but I don't have a pen for it. Thanks for the tip, friend.
