Moth's Sketchbook @by-moth-light-sketchbook - Tumblr Blog

SO About 8 months ago I fell in deep into sketchbook YouTube as I was suffering with fatigue so bad that I would have sleep for hours after only 20mins of crochet. Then inspired by the artists and desperate for an energy efficient creative outlet I started trying to teach myself to draw (and partly because I wanted to see more Night Shift Podcast fanart).

I like to think I've improved in that time but also I want to focus on being able to draw my own OCs - so I think I'm going to try the 100 head challenge!

But I am adapting it for me, so I am going to try and aim to draw a minimum of two faces a week. I'm also going to use different forms (some pen and pencil and some digital). The faces will most likely be face claims/fan art. As I'm going to mix where I'm drawing them I figured I'd post the heads here* :)

[*I'm going to post all of them here but I'm only going to privately post any that I'm not happy with]

#Ember - Night Shift Podcast fanart #100 Heads challenge (adapted)#I tried to do vitiligo but may have been over estimating my ability a touch #I might work on the hair a bit more but wanted to have head 2 finished in the right week #Ember may seem a rouge choice but I think she has one of the most devastating lines/scenes for me #Moth mumbles

Cameron Archer (Night Shift Pod) - 1/100

Ended up making this page far more aesthetic than I had intended - although if you look carefully you can see the other page slightly coming through despite my editing

Had a quiet morning so made another progress gif. bc I just think they're neat ... (SebAngelo - Sebastian Fen and Angelo Volta)

The grey was to match the 'off canvas' colour - I wanted a narrower canvas but I didn't know the exact dimensions so I matched the colour to the off canvas and just cropped the picture afterwards

Showed this to my sister and their partner yesterday and my sister was so shocked that I can actually Art i was almost a lil offended!
