And I Found Way Too Many Redraws Of Screencaps Of MHA.

Just got another idea. What if I morph that onto the OC I wanted to draw originally?

Giving him some pretty wings ...

and maybe I'll change his hair as well

I just realised I have way too much reference material collected over the last year but still not enough ...

I'm doing an art challange this month with the theme:

Future Fantasy

Figured I could draw one of my OCs again, was looking through old stuff for a specific reference but couldn't find it ... instead found something else and I have another idea. I'm simply going to recycle one of my Undertale OCs who never made it.

And I kinda came up with this:

Here the pic I found of that unused OC:

God, my artstyle back then was something else 😂

Heya, you know that rhythm game Friday Night Funkin?

I was lately thinking about, how cool it would be to sing against all of the sanses...

... yeah, I guess I have a new obsession...

(also lately got a little into drawing models for animation and the process of organized drawing is kind of satisfying)

I figured I have trouble drawing the hair of one of my ocs and I figured out I have the same problem drawing the hair of Bakugou. That means, I'll keep drawing Bakugou until I figured out the secret to his hair and why when I draw it from imagination it doesn't look right.

Grumpy boi and drawing no. 1

Also: that's just copied from a sceencap.

Why is it so hard to come up with a backstory for my OC? I guess I will just keep drawing his cute stupid face until I have an idea.

Here doodles no. 3 and 4. Let's see what happens first, me coming up with a valid idea for his backstory or me drawing him 100 times.

I just got an idea of maybe expanding his powers to trap specific coordinates into a card and then being able to carry them around and place them somewhere else. That's quite a cool idea. (Just need to be careful to not copy Yishu's powers.)

Note: I still don't know if I like the noses in profile-view ...

I'm getting distracted...

I am sorry. I just have too many projects running simultaneously and I did NOT forget that I wanted to do a couple of Error-comics, but I've been lately distracted first with life and secondly with another project that has been sitting in my head for about a year.

I already tried a couple times creating my own AU only ending in not being satisfied with my results. That led me to entirely take a break from the Undertale fandom, trying to create something else (which also failed of course).

But lately, I read through my older attempts and looked at older concepts I did some time ago and since I really love the idea of that AU and my OCs, I wanted to give it another shot. I feel more prepared than ever to finally turn that beautiful story into a form I can share it with others. I learned from my mistakes and finally got a structure from start to (almost) finish.

And since this is for me a new start of this story, I want to give it a new name (since I don't think the old one fits anymore). And I want to give it the name of another story that never made it and that (for now...) will probably never make it into reality. To honour the first bigger idea I came up with and my first Undertale OC, I will name my AU Desolatetale.

I'm not sure how consistent I will be with updates but I'm giving my best. If you have any kind of questions, always feel free to ask.

(I already posted character sheets here on this blog, but I want to make new 'spoiler-free' ones. If you want to see them anyway, they're here, here and here. I'm not sure if the information about these characters are still correct as I am currently rewriting the story but the designs will stay the same! ... I guess.)

I finished the sketch and figured out what colors I want to use. It was so difficult to find the right mix of pencils to get somewhat the right hair color. (I went through all pencils and markers I had and none of them were just what I needed 😥)

Now next up is the lineart. I'm actually quite scared of the coloring with the markers because I already figured out that they bleed a little on the paper. And since for the tounge I wanted to mix two colors it will be pretty dificult.

Here the sketch a little more visible:

And the links to the finished lineart and the colored piece.

Why does it always happen that I get carried away at some point while doodeling? Here, have a happy Izuku.

I should also try again working on my own artstlye again and just stop drawing screencaps from mha.

Ehh, whatever. Too much fun to stop 😝

I have the problem, that I think my expressions are too plain ... I think I figured out a way to get myself to exaggerate them.

I'm simply drawing different expressions, simplified to a smiley in a circle, just that I draw it 3 times. Each time, I try to make the expression more intense. and then I draw it on a face.

(I'm making the 25-essential-expressions challange)

Like here some examples:

Happy:

Sad (Idk, not too satisfied with that one but whatever):

Pleased (I like this very much. Like that smug character winning another argument and then smiling at you like that and saying, Told you~ ... or just a cute cinnamon roll ...):

Angry:

And confused:

Looks kinda good. If I did that challenge without the three smiley faces, it would show less expression.

Thought I might share that, maybe that helps someone.

Whoop Whoop! Making another one 😀

Some WIP-concept I came up with for an OC. His name is Decay. He is one of the seven guardians from the "In-Between". His left arm is completely covered in decay causing him to slowly dissolve everything he touches. He is also left-handed.

Might be that I also add something more to his design, but for now, I am pretty glad to finally have something I am kind of pleased with 😊
