Under the cherry tree

(story is based around the image made by @mblue-art​ ! still doing a lot of research for this and more parts coming soon!!)

it has been a while that cross was in the omega timeline, it was peaceful to a fault. Monsters still fought among themselves and the few humans that survived their over world genocides. Core frisk and dream have helped Cross get used to life there after the whole… Xevent that happened. He decided to stay after the humans in his world defeated Xgaster. He knew the others wanted him to stay but he can’t… not yet not when there are others that need him the most in the omega timeline.

Brother's insistence he visits home when he can. With dream and the others he has visited a lot of other alternative universes in tracking down Nightmare and his gang. He still doesn’t trust ink for what he did but he is still willing to work with him on jobs. In many of the worlds he would see the alternative versions of nightmare and the others and watched as they got the help they needed or they fell for someone while using them for a plan or some other reason, mostly from what he was able to see the person was able to put up with them and not take their bull.

But they all ended up being the same, the one they picked to pull into their lives wound up showing them little to no fear and somehow knew how to handle them, normally because they came from an abusive background but they didn’t let that hold them back from treating others with respect if they were shown it.

At first he would roll his eyes at that, especially in the Soul-mate worlds they find themselves in at times. Well more often than he would like and when he brought that up to dream he just answered. “It's because love can be the most painful thing anyone can experience, too much of it and it can become an obsession, too little of it and you just feel numb when someone truly loves you.” he said as he watched as a yandere!san’s stalked his soul-mate after killing their friend. “it can be used as a tool to manipulate others as well….”

he said this as if it happened to him as well but he shook his head and smiled at Cross. “but with the right amount of it things can work out well, yes there will be some pain but things will always turn out alright.” he said as he stretched. “Come on, we should head back so this timeline can run its course.” he said as he started to walk away. “and plus there is a festival that’s going to happen soon at home and I wanna get there to help!” he said happily.

With a roll of his eye light’s cross followed dream as they met up with a few of the others that came with them. The others were excitedly talking about the festival as dream used a “short-cut” to get them all back to the omega timeline.

The festival was just something simple to celebrate the town’s founding. It was nice but not really his thing… it brought back a lot of memories for him. With a shake of his skull Cross made his way to the massive hallway that led to the other worlds. When he can he would visit them on his down time just to relax. He liked joining the ones that just felt calm and not hectic. He was going to visit his favorite one outertale until he saw a new door, this one was a dusty pink with petals floating around the door.

Walking over to it cross watches as a name plate appeared on the door and in cursive the name of the au was written. “Sakuratale?” he questioned but laughed a bit to himself. No the strangest name he has ever heard of, but still it caught his interest. As he opened the door he felt a little spark prickle at his phalanges but ignoring it he made his way into the world.

At first it was a bright light as he walked past the threshold only for it to dim enough that cross could uncover his eyes to look around. From what he can tell he was on the surface and the buildings were not skyscrapers from what he was used to but small like that of a village. As he walked he made sure to stay hidden from the locals. As he watched them he could see that they all wore strange clothes that were in different shades of pink, even the men wore some form of clothing with pink on them. Curiosity spiked Cross pulled out a vial that ink gave him a long time ago. Looking at the skeleton’s voice rang in his skull.

“So! With this vial this will be able to change your clothes color to that of what is around the world so you don’t stick out like a sore thumb!” he said as he shoved the vial into his hand. “Won’t I already stick out like a sore thumb with this style?” he asked as he tugged at his coat’s collar only for ink to puke completely forget what he was saying.

With a sigh cross opened the vial and let a few drops of the strange liquid drop onto the white of his clothes. Just a single drop was able to change the white to a lovely shade of pink. “huh just one drop” he said as he quickly capped the vial and put it away. Coming out of his hiding place he walked among the humans and monsters.

They all looked so happy and content with their lives. As he walked he couldn't help but stop to stare a bit as he saw burgerpants with someone, he was laughing as the other hugged his arm and gave his cheek a kiss making him flush bright red as his ears twitched and his tail curled into a heart. “alright that’s different…” he mumbled as he walked away from the scene, for some reason a sappy burgerpants was unsettling.

With a shake of his skull, Cross continued to walk around the village and just took in the sights and just felt the hope and happiness everyone had. After stopping at a stall Cross bought something called a red bean paste bun and tried it and soon found that to be something he really liked to the point he bought a few more to snack on.

After a while Cross was sitting on a roof just enjoying his snack and reading a book he picked up as the people below went on with their lives. There was a tranquil calm that just laid on the place as if nothing wrong could happen. “so… this is a monster’s version of japan…” Cross mumbled to himself as he took another bite of the bun. ”That honestly explains a lot.” he said as he closed the book to look across the village.

From what he learned the surface was at war with themselves for so long that things just started to crumble to the point that humans were forced underground, at first met with hostility till the humans explained what happened to the surface. For years humans and monsters lived together under ground in a very tentative truce but for their children they had to put their differences aside if anyone was to live in peace.

Laying back cross finished his bun and just stared at the sky and he noticed that the sun was starting to set. Getting up cross dusted himself off as he cleaned up his mess and picked up the book. Looking at the cover a bit he put it into his item’s as well as the trash he had. Stuffing his hand into his pocket, Cross looked over the town. “heh… it’s a beautiful day outside….birds are singing, flowers are blooming on days like this Sakuratale, I’ll be seeing you later.” he said as he jumped into the air a bit and used his short-cut to leave the world.

Unknown to cross he caught the attention of a human, she was across the street cleaning her room when she noticed movement from the corner of her eye, looking up that was when she saw him standing on the rooftop of the bookstore she frequents. At first she thought she was seeing things so she rubbed her eyes and looked again but when she did he was gone. “ok I have been staying up too much reading old books… “she mumbled and closed her window. “I should head to bed early… this was one stressful day...”

Broken stars chapter 1 part 1

Shift tilted his skull at the others as they got ready to fight him, he scanned the fice for a moment and pointed at them “eenie.” He pointed at blue making him stiffen up. “Meenie” then moved on to point at Horror and Ink making them grit their teeth. “Miney” He pointed to Killer who brought his arms up, ready for an attack as well when Shift pointed at dust who was already in a defensive position Shift grinned at him. “You!” He said in a deep voice as he Blinked out of existence, making the group panic slightly before Shift blinked back into existence, his hand reaching for Dust’s face, making him freeze. ‘How is he so fast with short cuts!?’ He thought as an ax made of bone got in between the two, making Dust shake his head as Killer and Horror stood protectively in front of Dust but ecto started to slowly form on their skulls as Shift just tilted his head at them, a fanged grin on his skull. “Seems like I can’t play with you just yet Dusty.” Shift said as He looked at Horror. “I guess you will be the one I play with.” He said as he lunged at Horror. Horror’s eye widened as he brought his arm up to swat Shift away, but he was too slow when Shift grabbed his head, Horror growled as he tried to throw him off but soon ticking filled his head as he managed to yank Shift off and throw him to the side. Shift landed easily on the ground only to jump away as Killer and Blue attacked him, doing their best to get the skeleton away from them while Dust and Ink checked on horror. They tried to get him to look at them but Horror kept his back to them as he dropped to his knees. “Come on buddy.. Speak to me.” Dust said as he gripped Horror’s shoulder and made him turn to face him. But what he saw made Dust and Ink’s eyelights widen as Ink took a step back from him. Horror was looking at them with panic in his eye lights as they backed away from him “I-I can see…” He said with a shaky tone to his voice as Horror went to tug at his eye socket out of habit but was stopped by Dust. “Don’t touch it, we don’t know if that is really your eye or not.” He said as Ink shook himself and jogged over to them, after putting broomie onto his back he took Horror’s face into his hands and turned his face to the left and right to examine his eye.

part 2

Alright, so as it says the best was to start out is to draw the “line of action”. I drew a few different examples of lines of action going through different sketches (the bright blue line). This line represents the way the figure will move, and usually starting at the head and following the most prominent foot. However sometimes it will follow one hand to the other hand, or one hand to one foot, depending on the pose.

Let’s do a simple pose, though, just for the purposes of teaching.

This step does not have to be perfect. Think if it as a guildline for the rest of the drawing. Use the line of action to determine how you want the figure to pose.

Keep it loose! It doesn’t need to be neat and tidy. Also, remind that a figure like sans is three dimensional, so add guildlines to help you remember to keep him that way.

Another thing to keep in mind at this step is the height. You have probably heard that humans are 8 heads tall. And this is where I call malarkey on that. In a perfectly proportioned world, every human would be 8 heads tall. However, that would make us all look like Greek gods and superman. Women typically range about six to six and a half heads tall while men range six and a half to 7 heads tall. (Sans is both short and squat so he is 6 heads tall in my mind.)

This is where we deviate from a traditional figure. Sans is made of bones and doesn’t have a waist to draw, so while normally this is where you’d add the stomach and any chub to the figure, Sans is just bone.

This also doesn’t have to be perfect! This is a guildline for the final drawing, so don’t stress yourself out.

For the next bit, I switched my pen up in Krita, before I was using a regular “Ink pen” to make everything more obvious and easier to see, now I used the pencil tool, because it’s easier to get the details and thin lines I want.

Some thing I’ve noticed looking at beginners art (and at my old art) is that clothes are a pain in the butt to get right. I still struggle. Often times I see clothes that look more plastered on to bodies instead of the figure wearing them. The best way to avoid this is to use the 3D guide you drew and make sure the clothes follow the contours of the body. Sans doesn’t have a stomach, so his shirt is more likely to have a deep wrinkle between his ribs and pelvis.

A good way to get good at drawing clothes is to use lots of references. Like pictures from fashion magazines or just fashion blogs where people take pictures if their clothes. That way you can see the way the clothes work on the human form. (I don’t recommend using drawn references, because it’s better observe from real life)

Another important part of this step is facial features and expressions. Part of why I like drawing Sans is because his expressions are sometimes hard to come up with. It’s a good idea to match expressions with the way you poses the figure. I drew him pretty relaxed, so I gave him a relaxed expression. Another expression I could have used was sheepish, having him look off to the sad. Or maybe even sad, with less of a smile, looking a bit more down. It’s good to experiment and see what you like as well.

I’m next just going to talk about basic coloring (because this isn’t about coloring) so if you want a full coloring tutorial, let me know.

Sans has a very basic color scheme, and therefore I have fun playing around with styles of his clothes more. However, a good tip to remember is coloring, try and desaturated you colors, meaning that instead of choosing the brightest blue or green, slide that color slider over and pick a one mixed with grey. A tint or shade of that color. It looks much better on the eye.

For shading, you’re going to want to place your light source some where. Whether it be over heard, off to the side, or down below, just know that the side you put the light source on is where the light is and on the other side is where the shadow is. For beginners I recommend having a physical remind of the light source (like my light bulb drawing) to remind you of where you want to shade, but as you get better, you won’t need to anymore.

As a personal choice, I don’t use black as a shadow color. I use mostly blue or purple. I recommend trying it to see if you like it, because to me it looks more realistic.

Please remember that is this is just how I draw, and it’s not how everyone has to do it! And I encourage all artists to find their own way of doing things, but sometimes you need a little guidance. So I hope this helps.

If you have any comments, questions, or concerns, let me know. Also, let me know if you want to see another tutorial like this, and if so, of what?

Lust and killer were sitting on a bench in outtertale one of the neutural AU'S Killer's arm wrapped around Lust's shoulders in a friendly way as Lust leaned into him, they were enjoying their time together till a group of monsters started to cat call lust, making him feel self conscious in his out fit, seeing this Killer would raise his hand up making knives appear spinning around his hand till Lust just gently gripped his shoulder. Killer would just nod as he closed his hand into a fist, making the knives disappear. they were silent for a while till killer spoke up. "Why won't you let me defend you...?" He asked making Lust laugh a bit. "Your idea of defending me is to dust who ever the offender is." He said as Killer laughed a bit. "Ya well it's the best way to shut them up!" He said proudly making dust roll his eyes a bit before he looked out into space, lost in thought. "How do you do it?" Lust asked in a soft tome making Killer look at him confused. "Do what?" He asked as Lust pulled away from him. "You know, all of THIS!" He said as he gestured to all of him. "Killer laughed a bit as he put his chin on his hand and struck a dramatic pose. "What? being a sexy to all hell?" He joked but lust just crossed his arms ar him. "No.... the confidance... how do you do it?" Lust asked as Killer thought a bit. he knew what lust meant and... even he didn't know how he does it. "...I don't know..." He said as he rested his elbows on his knees as he leaned forward. "Sometimes it's easy and others it's not... It just depends on who I am around I guess.... like with Dust and Horror I can kill easy with them around because I know they have my back in the feild... with you I can be more calm like...." He looked down and gripped his shirt a bit. "Like how you used to be?" Lust asked as he gently rubbed Killer's back Killer just nodded. "Ya was all he said for a while till he turned to lust. "But you are confident enough!" He said making Lust give him a confused look. "You're confident in your own way! you can walk up to strangers and strike up a conversation easily! you can hold your drink down, and when you put your mind to something you want you do your best to get it. but most of all you're not afraid to show affection out in public" Killer said as he leaned back onto the bench. "That is the kind of confidance I wish to have some day." He said making Lust laugh as he leaned against him again. Killer nuzzled against his head a bit as he wrapped his arms around Lust once again. "love you." Lust said making killer smile. he knew Lust meant it in a platonic way as he kissed the side of his head. "Love you too." He said as he pressed his cheek against Lust's head as they watched the stars in the sky.

hey guys

i think we should talk about killer + lust friendship more :)

Anybody else got that Evergiven sized writers block

HOW DOES ONE DRAW A SANS?!

i just literally draw a potato sack

when i draw i always compare the character to random stuff with the same shape (i draw frisk as a lamp first sometimes) and base on that for position/movement.

Send me a sans from any au

Send me a character and I’ll give you some of my thoughts on them!

second story sneek peek

He said in a deep voice as he Blinked out of existence, making the group panic slightly before Shift blinked back into existence, his hand reaching for Dusts’s face, making him freeze. ‘How is he so fast with short cuts!?’ He thought as a ax made of bone got in between the two, making Dust shake his head as Killer and Horror stood protectively in front of Dust, but ecto started to slowly form on their skulls as Shift just tilted his head at them, a fanged grin on his skull

Hello, my friend! I was wondering if you can make a little tutorial of sorts on how you make Goatmom and Sans look scary. You know, like in the "Does little Pup get sick?" and the "What would happen if Little Pup was killed?" comics. (Thank you for being you)

Heya, my friend! I’ve never done a tutorial before, but let me try showing you how I draw scary looking Sans? XD

As for Toriel, there isn’t much to it…? Just look for sharp looking eyes and make her pupils smaller. XD

Hope that helps?
