I POSTED THE FIRST CHAPTER FOR HERMITCRAFT/LIFE SERIES AU/FIC ON AO3!!! Its also my birthday today so i think u all should go check out my fic and reblogg this post as a present yep yep. /hj (id appreciate it a lot if u did :D)

This chapters artwork:

Hypno looking out of his base at fireworks going off at Wels’s base whilst cheekily smirking.

HERE YOU GO!!! Decided to animate the fire works cause i thought it would look cool, I'm p happy with it! Wels castle was sm fun to draw, i should rly do architecture studies more often...

I remember watching cubs Pov of this, the struggle to build the firework launcher was real LMFAO

close up below!!!

Working on a hermitcraft art request rn, and....

HYPNO HAS A BOOB WINDOW??? WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME ABOUT THAT!!!

Anyways i decided to draw ittttt hehehe (<-is procrastinating on artfight & art requests)

For art request: Maybe either an Imp & Skizz, or a full Team ZITS moment? (Their After Dark Naked Nether Runs earlier in the season were WAAAAYYYYYY too much fun!)

HERE YOU GO!!! 4 Bros chilling in a hottub, ft. a very confused (and slightly disturbed) effo!!! I hope you like it :D

I've been wanting to draw this scene for AGES (aka ever since the video came out), so i hope u don't mind i drew this instead of sth from their after dark runs, since i haven't had time to watch those yet :')

HERMITCRAFT ART REQUESTS OPEN!!!

(ill try to finish most of them, but since i'm a lil busy rn & i tend to procrastinate it might take a while :D)

Rebloggs are appreciated! Cause this took way too long whejw

[Day 26]: Groups and collabs!

(CLICK FOR BETTER QUALITY)

Finally had the time to finish this artwork i made for hermitaday! I almost forgot about this LMFAO-

I also made this lil graph to illustrate how i see their dynamic qkehakjd

The og post is here, and the link to my hermitaday Masterpost is here!

(reminder that my art requests are currently open)

Im gona participate in artfight this year!

I've got a bunch of old OCs (one of which im gona post later today :3) that i wanna redraw/redesign for artfight, help me choose the order!

(OLD) ART OF THEM BELOW!

Sb!Clay (oc that i made for the silverblood SMP)

He's a revolutionary with a superiority & savior complex. He joins a cult in hopes of getting the power he needs to overthrow a corrupt government / religious institution, but ends up becoming much worse than them as he slowly spirals and looses himself. Aka, someone who should have stayed a warrior instead of trying to be a ruler/leader.

Kai (oc that i made for a dnd one shot)

He's a thief who's kind of a dick bc he will literally just leave ppl behind, steal shit, cause chaos and do other bad things and not care. He just likes adventuring and having fun, doesn't rly care about the consequences it has for other people.

Sabrina (oc i came up w/ in the middle of class)

Apocalypse survivor with anxiety, pathetic wet rag energy, and most importantly: a gun.

Happy :)

Aneth isn't on here bc I CANT FUCKING FIND ANY ART OF HER. but shes like... A goat lion human hybrid??? Idk how to explain her

could u draw. a mumbo. any mumbo u wish. i crave mumbo content like a dying plant craves water

Mumbo jumbo...

Water.......

Hmmmmmmm....

Drops octo!mumbo and runs

I hope you like it :D i actually started the sketch for this during the hermitaday challenge, but didn't rly have time to keep working on it during the challenge. As soon as i saw this request i knew i HAD to finally finish it :D

(close up + version w/o water effect thingy below!)

I decided to do a more painting like style for this, but for some fucking reason i also thought it would be a good idea not to use any blending tools or opacity stuff (excluding some final touches) and just... Do flat shading... While trying to pick everything from the colorwheel w/o like, mixing colors....

Did this exercise make me improve at using the digital color wheel? Yeah probably. But also this took wayyy too fucking long and i am never doing it this way again LMFAO

Beef painting the Iskall bedroom in his house. -Chandelier

Here u go!

Decided to do a sketchy animation for this one, i hope you like it :D it was a lot of fun to draw, I've really been enjoying animating these lil gifs! If you guys have any suggestions (especially if it could be turned into a lil gif 👁️👁️) my ask is open :3

❗Hermitcraft / Life series art requests open❗

[Day 31]: Rendog!

Decided to make a lil animation of our favorite Gigacorp employee for today's hermitaday :D He's exploring the recently discovered planet he build his base on.

Oh! What's that??? Looks like he got spooked by something... It was probably just the wind or something, right? I'm sure its fine... :)

(closeups/non animated version below!)

Goodness gracious, i can't believe hermitaday 2024 is over??? THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IVE COMPLETED AN ART CHALLANGE LIKE THIS LMFAO-

Everyone say thank you to my adhd meds!!! Are they working properly??? Nope. Not at all. But they r making me hyperfixate on things 24/7, mainly art, which is probably the only reason i completed this LMFAO (my grades on the other hand... Are suffering... Oop-)

[Day 30]: TANUKI JOEL TANUKI JOEL TANUKI JOEL-

(Whenever i export animations, procreate sometimes messes up the colors a bit? It looks fine on my ipad, but the animation is desaturated on my phone, so here's what it should look like:)

Anyways, i thought it would be funny to draw Joel summoning Effo, inspired by Grian & Scar summoning mumbo during season 8. It turned out even sillier than i thought it would and i absolutely love it wkdhwjd

(explanation of the animation + sketch of the tail below!)

Also wanted to show off the sketch since it shows off the movement a lot better! I did end up changing a LOT (and even ended up adding some frames where i did lineart w/o a sketch inbetween... Oop-) but u can still kind of see the drag and offset?

So basically: since the tail isn't a stiff object like... A table or sth, it has multiple 'joints' (<-don't remember the proper term for it). Now, if u animated the tail just moving back and forth it would look v v stiff and wierd, since irl the tip of the tail would be "dragged along" with the bottom (<-aka the ACTUAL joint that the movement originates from). To create a more organic and realistic movement, you need to slightly delay the other parts of the tail. I usually use those lil circles to sketch this out at first, since its a lot easier to do without having to worry about shape and perspective and such.

(in theory i know wayyy too much about animation, but in practice im still struggling to do it bc i don't have much experience animating ekfhakdj- i do know the theory p well, which is why im hoping his lil explanation might help someone! Let me know if u guys want me to include some art theory lessons more often :D)

[Day 29]: Hypno!

Decided to just do a quick colored sketch today :D except then i accidentally started rendering... Eh it still counts as a sketch! Kind of. I think. Maybe. :(

Istg this happens every time. I go "alr just a sketch today", i blink, and suddenly multiple hours have passed and i have a fully rendered piece with a background??? Like? I wonder why that happens... (looks at my adhd diagnosis) i cant think of any reasons why /s/j

LUCKILY! I did actually manage to convince myself to only spend an hour drawing instead of the usual.... 5 to 10 hours... (i mainly do traditional art so my digital art process is still VERY slow and VERY tedious... It's been getting better tho!)

HI HEY HELLO HEARD U WERE LOOKING FOR ART REQUESTS AND IF U DONT MIND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A LIL DOODLE OF SCAR HELPING ETHO TO SCAR-PROOF THE MAIL SYSTEM /nf

[Day 28]: Scar

You want a lil doodle of Scar and Etho? Of course, lemme just-

-oops i think my hand slipped... This was just supposed to be a doodle but while looking for references i saw a scene that i just HAD to draw.

I apologize for taking to long on this request LMFAO. i do hope u like it tho :D

If u recognize the Etho, it's because i posted the sketch for him on his day of hermitaday!

[Closeups below]

It's a lil rushed cause i didn't have much time, so i think it can hypothetically still count as a sketch? At least the shading?? Mayhaps???

(curse school for being from 6am-4pm on most days :(((( I JUST WANNA DRAW!!!! lets ignore the fact i go to an art school and i already have 9+ hours of art a week, not including the art projects in other classes.... I want to draw MORE!)

[Day 27]: Grian! The pesky bird, the bad boy, the guy who got me into watching hermitcraft during season 7!

Look at him and his silly big eyes! Yep. They r ginormous, just like the moon. And its definitely the only odd thing about them... Don't look too closely tho :)

Ik this is a hermitcraft art challange, but just HAD to draw his badboy skin.

Oh and i gave him a silly necklace (that's hidden underneath his shirt) with absolutely no hidden meaning (<-lie) that i will definitely not elaborate on in future art! (<-depends on whether i remember to actually do it LMFAO)

(meme about grians eyes below!)

"Mumbo is the moon big" no grian, it's not, not as big as your soulless eyes at least! /j/ref

[Day 26]: Groups and collabs! [WIP]

Grrrr i dont have the time to finish this today :( have the idea & the line art instead, ill post the finished one once its done! (I'll prob do the other hermitaday challenges first tho, so it might take a while)

Do u see my vision tho. The absolute sillyness those 3 get up to. (sketchy, semi accurate color pallete below!)

The color pallete will prob still change a bit, this is just like a vague test that i base it off of? I usually select and change colors as i go, i rarely stick with the original version wodhskej

[Day 25]: Impulse!

He's a bit angy cause he was gona work on his city, but then it started raining :( demons and rain don't work well together...

Aaaaa i love the way this turned out! I saw a post a while ago mentioning how impulse complained about being drawn as v 'basic' in fanart, so i decided extra hard to try and capture his... Personality in this :3

Close up + version w/o the background below!

Something i absolutely love about hermitcraft / the life series is their skins. Especially the fact that so many skins have complimentary color palletes??? It makes drawing them sm fun. (cleo for example, shes got red hair & bluish skin, which is a myc complimentary pair, but shes also got green which combined w/ the red is an rgb pair! Impulse got yellow and purple which is another rgb one :D)

[Day 24]: Cleo, the master of armor stands!

I wonder what they're making...

(lil extra sketch bellow, small warning: mild/implied gore?)

....Oh

Off topic but today was my math exam! It went... Bad if u consider im usually great at math, good if u consider i barely studied-

Technically im not supposed to know my grade yet, but somehow another class got their hands on the answer sheet and im p sure i have a 3? Might have a 2 tho, I obv don't remember all my answers lmfao- (fyi: 1 is the best grade, 5 is the worst. You fail if u get a 5 and in math you need >50% correct to get a 4 or better)

I usually get 1s and 2s in math, so a 3 isnt BAD but i could def do better. Im not too upset tho, i mean i literally choose to draw instead of studying so- it was def worth it :3

[Day 23]: Tango

ITS HIM!!! TANGO!!! THE DUNGEON MASTER!!! Hes so much fun to draw omg

Sadly i only had time for a quick lil sketch, cause i have a math exam tomorrow and i REALLY need to study LMFAO-

[Day 22]: Iskall!

He's writing a love letter for joel :3 non animated version bellow!

Aaaa these little gifs r sm fun to make! Maybe a little too much fun, considering i just spent 6hrs drawing instead of studying for my math exam on Friday... Oop-

It's fineeee, im p good at math so i don't have much to worry about!

Bdubs forgetting his horse in the shopping district the second he buys an elytra. -Chandelier

[Day 21]: Bdubbleo!

The man, the myth, the legendary sleeper: Bdubs! Ty for the request, i hope u like the final result! I've been experimenting w/ more simplified / comic like artstyles and i think im p happy with how much I've been improving at them :3

💥❗HERMITCRAFT/TRAFFIC ART REQUESTS OPEN❗💥

Close ups of Climb10 and Jevins shop below!

[Day 20]: Geminitay (click for better quality)

Decided to combine an art rq & the promot for today, hope you like it! More art rqs coming soon, i alr finished the lineart for 2 others and I'm gona be posting the colored versions soon!

(non animated version below)

Stupid procreate keeps messing up the colors when i export animations >:( i managed to fix most of it, but it still looks a bit off-

Its a bird! It's a plane! It's a docm77 flying through the nether with 1/4 of lightspeed!!!

Decided to post a lil zoomed-in version of the docm drawing i made last week, since the only closeup i added to the OG post was the man purse LMFAO

(more closeups below)

silly goat man!

HAHA! YOU REALLY EXPECTED ME NOT TO SHOW OFF THE MANPURSE AGAIN??? YOU FOOL!

Anyways, don't mind me, i just needed people to know that Doc cannonicly has a pink shulkerbox called manpurse. (Might be a season 8 or 9 thing tho?? Honestly no clue, memory issues go brrrrrr)

[Day 19]: Fav alt hermit
