Locked In Eternal Battle

Transcript: You can do this forever...

My favorite part of my art process is the color. Color can bring a piece to life, make it feel full. But...

It's hard to do that with a character that's just black and white! Since I've been mostly drawing Siffrin, my usual coloring process has become boring. Though, on the plus side, this makes me want to experiment more. I've been messing around with the tools in my art app (Infinite Painter) during my art process recently. That's how I got this piece. I used one of the charcoal tools for the shadows. I think it's called Glazed Vine. I don't remember what tool I used for the values on the cloak. It might have been the same tool, but I think it was different.

With using absolute black for Siffrin's design and the background, I had to outline the blacks with thin white line art. Though, with the lines being so thin, they were somewhat translucent. Whenever I had to use multiple strokes for a connected line, you could see everytime I lifted up my stylus. I tried to fix this by inking the lines multiple times. That fixed the problem, but that made the lines way too bright. So I looked at one of the lines that didn't need multiple attempts of line art, and I used my color picker on the line to get a light gray. Then I used the light grey to redo the bright white line art, and viola. Problem solved!

I had difficulty figuring out the pose and anatomy for this artwork. I probably should have searched up a reference, but meh. I think it turned out pretty good, anyways. I think I struggled with making the feet look like they're touching the ground, though. I suppose there could be more anatomy mistakes, but hey! Siffrin's cloak does a fantastic job at hiding any mistakes I could've made. Speaking of the cloak, I really like how it turned out! I think I did a good job with the cloak folds.

And that's basically all I have to say about this piece. Though, I want to mention that, for some reason, it's easier for me to draw anatomy and poses on paper than on my phone. I don't really know why that is. Maybe it's because I have more surface to draw on with my sketchbook?

Anyhow, I'll go ahead and add the initial sketch and a screenshot of my artwork in the middle of the coloring process.

I was originally planning on this piece being about Siffrin sacrificing himself for their friends, but I ended up changing that. I also had to change the hands. You can see that the hand holding Siffrin's dagger is wrong.

I added the mid-color screenshot because I just think it looks cool. It kinda reminds me of something that Julia from Drawfee would paint.

STAGNANT CAMPAIGN: Save Hani's Niece and Nephew

Hi all, I would like to spotlight Hani's campaign, which has been severely stagnating for weeks now. This is saddening to watch, especially when they are so close to their goal.

This is Saleh, the daughter of Hani's sister, who is just 3 years old, and her younger brother Huda, who just turned 2 years old during the occupation. Constant fear living under bombardment and months-long food scarcity has robbed them of their childlike joy and infectious energy.

Please help this family evacuate with these two children. They have been forced to give the children cooked dough to eat for months. Fruit and vegetables are extremely hard to come by. This could have serious long term health complications for these growing children.

Hani has multiple siblings who are university students and high school students. They have jobs and dreams that are cut short by the invasion. Please help Hani save them so they can be reunited. Hani has been exiled alone in Belgium away from his family for months.

Only 1 donation in the past 3 hours. This is extremely worrying. Please help us save this family from this stagnant campaign. Please donate whatever you can spare.

Please check out the custom tote bag raffle and the Magikarp plush raffle for donors, the two artists responsible for the raffles have agreed to extend the prizes for Hani's family as well. New custom tote bag design to be released Friday Aug 16.

€43,100 raised of €50,000 goal currently as of August 15, we need to raise €6,900 BY THE END OF DAY SUNDAY so the family can start relocating to southern Gaza in preparation for evacuation.

You're Back

You're Back

Okay, I don't have much to say about this drawing. Usually, I like to talk about my process and critique my art, but I didn't really experiment with this one. Though, I did force myself to work on anatomy, so that's good. Also, I'm realizing that past me didn't really know how Siffrin's hair works. Honestly, the white part of his hair is probably shorter than his black hair. The white parts might also be longer at the sides. I still don't know, to be honest.

By the way, the date on the drawing is wrong. It was finished in March, not February. I made this drawing on the same day I made the blended version of this drawing of Siffrin (which is in my previous post). I'm tired, but I'm going to post like three more drawing of Siffrin, so bare with me.

> Get back on the stage, Siffrin.

Probably the last merch idea I have for ISAT - a shaker charm! A lot of this is practice for other merch I make for other fandoms (since I table at cons and stuff), but I also plan on hosting a few giveaways for the ISAT fan merch I've made (all for personal use!) on my tumblr and bluesky!

@ ALL RISE FANS THAT MAKE COMICS & STORIES

So I’ve noticed that in this fandom it’s common to include Deaf/ASL-using-characters into stories, which is honestly AMAZING and makes me SO HAPPY TO SEE, but many of us aren’t deaf we rely on resources, therefore:

handspeak.com
Sign Language • ASL Dictionary | Handspeak®

My ASL teacher gave us this website cause it’s updates constantly (ASL evolves lots) and it’s a lot more accurate and reliable than just google :))

To work it- type the word, and a word bank will pull up, click on the term u want and a video/description of the sign and word will appear!!!

It’s rlly simple and has most words and if it doesn’t it’s bc it’s finger spelled probs!!!!

If u want more in-depth good grammar, search up “five parameters ASL”, “glossing in ASL” and watch a few videos to see “how sentence structure differs in ASL”

As always, remember it’s ok to make mistakes/notice a mistake, just be mindful and kind :D most of us aren’t out for malice and if someone is it’ll probs be very obv 😭

Happy Creating!!

Edit: A THANK U SO MUCH FOR THE REBLOGS :)) if anyone ever needs any help drop a comment or look at other reblogs!! There’s lot of other resources/tips there!!!

Siffrin

Siffrin

I've been playing a lot of In Stars and Time recently. I haven't finished the game, yet, but I have finished Act 3. As I've been drawing Siffrin, I've realized that their cloak is rather confusing. For the most part, it's depicted as not having sleeves, but, in some scenes, it definitely has sleeves! I've decided that the cloak has been crafted to have sleeves whenever the wearer needs to have sleeves. Anyhow, I tried to make a full-body drawing of them. I'll admit that the pose is kinda boring. I have to practice drawing more poses. Though, I think I did a pretty good job with the anatomy. Also, I couldn't really figure out the expression on his face, but whatever. Despite that, I had fun making this drawing, and I might post more drawings of this game as I get farther in it.

Edit: I have been informed that Siffrin's cloak canonically has no sleeves! So this drawing can be considered inaccurate. (Also, thank you for ignoring that I definitely drew Siffrin's dagger wrong.)

Hello dear friends! ❤🤍🖤💚

🍉I am Mahmoud Ayyad, a Palestinian from the besieged and destroyed Gaza 😭😭, coming from an extended family of young children, women and elderly people ❤❤ who have been suffering😭😭 for 300 difficult days from an aggressive war.

You can support my campaign by donating whatever you can or by sharing my posts to reach others who can help us survive the war to safety and peace. You are helping the lives of many people with your small contribution. Every donation makes a difference in our very difficult lives. But this is a legitimate campaign and has been checked by 90-ghost.

I'm a 16 year old amature artist. I only speak English, currently. I go by she/her or they/them. I support the LGBTQ. My current fandoms are Gravity Falls and The Owl House. I'm not that knowledgeable about the Gaza situation, so I probably won't be able to help too much. I can only reblog posts about it, at the moment.
