Here's This Week's Monster Posting. I Decided That This Year Would Be The Year Where I Branch Out Into

A beastie I created for myself and partially for my IB art portfolio. As my first time working seriously in India Ink, I must say, it was quite an entertaining little beast. Hard to get used to holding the pens tho. They're so different from what I'm used to. Also, I just started working in Medibang Paint Pro, so if any of you have tips on how to crop an image, and how to create a watermark without having to make the watermark as a brush first (because there is a size limit to the brushes) I would greatly appreciate it. I plan on switching over to Photoshop soon, but as of this moment, Medibang is the free option so Imma stick to that for a while.

Pretty sure I forgot to post my weekly monster sketchbook art. So here ya go.

Inktober 2018 Day 25

“Prickly”

Had fun with this guy, though for some reason to me his face shape doesn’t interest me at all. Oh well, such is life and art. I did my best and it’s time to move on. I’ll have yall know that I finished Inktober on the 31st, just as always posting is the hardest part for me.

A thing I’ve been working on for the past day or so, completed 3-18-18. Had this in the lineart sketchbook for a long while now, but decided to just get it done and over with. Took about 10-15 hours to do, which was longer than Indigestion’s time to finish, which was around a few hours. That’s probably ‘cause I took way more time with the lineart on this one than the previous, so I’m gonna try to keep that stage on the down low and simple next time around. I want these things to just go faster so that I can get stuff out faster. This one allowed me to play more with shading, and I like what I did with the background, what with the increasing lightness as you go down. Was great fun to do, and am excited for the next project. The next one is likely to be a piece with more tight lineart and no shading, so look forward to it.

Inktober 2018 Day 31

“Slice”

I am a major slut for pretty and fluid animation, and because this prompt reminded me of Genji, I decided he would be my muse for this day. You might recognize the pose from the Dragons short when he slices Hanzo’s arrow. That scene gave me shivers.

Had a metric fuck ton of fun with @arthurs-skana (magenta), @flamingvictoryagain (green), and @013-jackson (blue, ILL FUCKIN GET YOU) tonight using that magma drawing app (thing is wonky as hell though). Lots of drifters drawn, lots of teeth admired. People get easier the nore you draw them it would seem.

Inktober 2018 Day 13

“Guarded”

I’ve always loved the concept of natural guardians to these mystical places that humans are not allowed to enter. You go beasties, protect your magic shit~

Contains spoilers for the game Undertale

Just a random post, but I've been doing a lot of exploration on Undertale and everything to do with it. Fan comics, Canon stuff everything other than actually playing unfortunately.....and....it just shocking how real it feels. I just feel the need to talk a little about this wonderful game with its beautifully developed characters. I've seen quite a bit of the angst having to do with some of the chars and the different ways to do a playthrough. My main thought on this game is the absolute horror that happens with a 'No Mercy' run, killing all of the main characters who show the player love and affection, and the effect this has on the rest of the characters in the game, especially in Sans' case, who is my favorite character. I believe that the pacifist run is the true ending to the game, but the other timelines, mainly the genocide timeline, and their effect they have on a select few characters just gets to me like nothing has before. The effect they have on Sans is astounding, as he has knowledge of the resets and saves of the player, along with any previous run throughs, of the game, which likely cause him nightmares should the previous games be No Mercy runs. This and how the death of his friends and especially his brother affect him just makes my guts wrench with sadness for him. A lot of people are scared of Sans as they fight him near the end of the No Mercy due to his cold rage towards the player's actions but I feel only this unbearable sadness for Sans....all those who he loves and cares about are dead and since he knows of the resets he knows that all he tries to do in that timeline is for naught. Urgh it just makes me want to take all the potential pain away from Sans, the hurt that comes from his almost omnipotent awareness and the pain from the chance of losing his brother and those closest to him in any play through other that the True Pacifist Run.....anyways....just felt good to get these thoughts that I've been wondering about all day out onto "paper." Anyways, see ya around.

“Bottle”

Little bottle bois need their daily sustenance. Again, didn’t feel like using india ink on this one.

This beast here is a more sketchy version of my sketchbook work. I drew it on the fly while watching YouTube vids. Love me some Markiplier. Yeah I'm pretty sure I have some low form of ADHD because of my constant jittering. Anyways, enjoy the teeth and beak.
