I have read such a nice concept of an AU that I immediately wanted to draw the character from it ❤ (took me some time, but here it is!)
That's Asher from Ambertale. He belongs to @billygoat26
Hope you like it 😁
That piece is pain. I traced the sketch on a separate layer and started with the lineart but I messed up the eyes. I tried to fix it but now it's smudged. Now I can start over again tracing my sketch.
I think this time, I won't trace the eyes and just try to get the expression I want.
Okay I made a sick sketch
It's tiny (like on the corner of my sketchbook) but I saw that pose and I was thinking like, okay this is EXACTLY how it looks when he uses his quirk so I scribbled down the pose and then drew him.
I want to make that in big. With markers. And maybe even make a background. And hang it on the wall to Kirishima and Denki.
And I was also thinking of something funny. The way he would describe how he fights with his quirk:
I can use my quirk as a weapon. Just think of it ... like a table. A table isn't dangerous, right? Then you accidentally drop something beneath it, try to pick it up and while getting back up you hit your head against the table. Although, it's just a table, it still hurts, right?
(I'm not sure if I'll allow him to reshape his forcefields but if I do, he would add:
Now imagine the table being a spikey pyramid...)
Just drew this dude. I think studying the mha artstyle really improved my artstyle. I love him ❤️ and it didn't really take that long to draw that.
Also, take some sketches I did beforehand:
I don't know his name yet, but I think his quirk would be something with superspeed. (Might call it slowmotion or reverse slowmotion, depends on how I'll make it work.)
I really like the idea that he has always a pair of sunglasses with him, to avoid dust getring into his eyes while in superspeed. And also to be the coolest kid around 😎
Also his quirk shows in his personality. He's mostly impatient since everything is going too slow for him.
His hero idol is Hawks. He definetly aims to become quicker than him to claim the title as fastest hero.
Something that I should also probably explain before diving into characters, is the way I think of souls.
As already explained in Undertale, the soul is the culmination of a being. I perceive it as if all of yourself is condensed in your soul. Memories, preferences, opinions. Taking one part out of that, the soul wouldn't change visibly, but physically something is missing, making the person holding that soul act, think and feel differently.
I also quite like the idea of the soul being reflected in my character's eye colours. That way, you kind of can look into their soul if you're looking into their eyes 😍.
I also really like the part with the soul traits. That means, you have one trait that you can categorise the way someone is.
The only problem I see with that is, that it's too bland. It would mean a brave character needs to ALWAYS act brave and a nice person needs to ALWAYS be nice to everyone. Because of that being unrealistic, but still wanting to include it, I like to think about it like your soul trait only shows at extreme moments. That way a character can still feel normal doing something that wouldn't exactly fit their soul trait.
If you take it a level further, it's also more likely for a character to drift into a constant behaviour that hurts their own soul. That means if a kind person is constantly being mean to everyone, it's going to affect them negatively. It could be physical but also mental. (Just came up with this last thought as I kept writing it down, but damn ... I see potential for some deep plot 🙂)
Can anyone tell me how to draw lightning and tunder?
I'm struggling to draw energy lightning circling around a specific spot.
How does lightning work? It's just rigid lines but it's also not.
Edit:
figured out how to do it digitally. But how the hell are you supposed to do that with traditional mediums like acrylics or markers?
And yes, I made a short sketch to figure this out. But digitally it's quite easy. Just draw some white squiggly lines along a shape, erase some parts, repeat that process until you're satisfied and then add colored glow beneath.
GUYS! Guysguysguys ...
I'm excited. I finished planning the first 11 pages of my comic :D
The first scene is done :D
Now I just need to get a little criticism on what I could improve and then I can start making it pretty :D
I also realised I probably need to start making REAL character sheets. I changed the design of one of them mid-drawing.
I need to make sure they stay consistent. Otherwise, that would be confusing.
It's been quite a while ...
Thought I might post a couple more drawings.
I once did a drawing of Deku from MHA but ... I would put it into uncanny valley territory. So, I'm redrawing him again.
Take a bald Deku 😆
And here the version I did before:

Geez, I completley forgot I did this some time ago ... how did I even do this?
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)

Now I'm looking through old pictures and thinking like: aww that looks so cute. I should totally take some of the old designs and integrate them into the new ones.
like, here what I'm talking about (old one above, new one below):
I really like the eyes of the old one, the loose hairstrains and the staff. THAT STAFF IS SO COOL!!! Imagine her pulling out a giant ink pen out of it.
In the new design, I merged the eye colours (might undo that, I think I like the separate colours. I also did that originally to set her colour-sceme, since the cloak was ... all colours.) I replaced the staff with a scroll because she wouldn't be fighting, but currently I'm like, I don't care, I want staff, gimme staff o.o
Maybe I'll merge what I listed above from the old design with the hairstyle and outfit from the lower one. (If I make that staff a giant ink pen, that vial of ink will clearly need to be bigger. Or could it be, that she just spills the ink over the tip of the pen and then starts to draw?)
Edit: Oh and in terms of creativity and the creative way I decided their names (it was simply their profession. I was lazy 😅) I decided to put a little more effort in and rename them. So er name is not Creativity or Crea anymore, her new name is Yishu.
Yishu, the guardian of creativity
Aaand my collection is getting bigger
The links to the individual pieces:
Kirishima, Izuku, Katsuki, Denki and Shoto.
There are also links of the wips of those (except Shoto because I forgot to take pictures) if you're interested to see how I made them.
