D.A.T.'s Chaotic Interests

Where I reblog all the stuff i like on Tumblr. 18+ only blog. View my main @DelicateArtisanTrash to see my artwork, drabbles, and fanfic postings. Art in the header is mine; the funky loopy thing in my avi is shuttle-tatting i did.

Reblogging again cause I tried this site last night and if you need background noise to focus this is perfect for that, I was locked the fuck in on a task. And it’s also just gorgeous to listen to

Am I practicing digital art at this point or just drawing Prowl over and over again… who knows.

Anyhow, this is a comic cover redraw but I changed the character to be Prowl instead of Arcee lol

my bug : D

[888-fr]

fascinated by the explanation behind the decision to not make dragon-themed cat breeds on Pawborough is because 'could be antisemitic'

(not my screenshot/was sent to me, so I don't know what the conversation ahead and behind this looks like)

Reblogging the OP to cut the chain down. Here is the most recent word on the subject

I think it is ESPECIALLY worth noting the first time this was brought up was in reference to the Metropolis breed, which at the time was almost 1:1 New York City in its presentation and themes of corruption.

in-depth wing rendering tutorial please

alright o7 a lot of my process is fumbling around but i hope some of this can be helpful!

auraboa wings look pretty much like normal wings with exaggeratedly long secondaries. i've never really been able to make sense of the skin flap (?) so i just ignore it. so anyway here's the step by step on how i render wings generally:

sketch

you can see quite a few errors in it. i tend to iron these out while i paint lol

2. colors (based off one of my dragons!)

one thing i'll do if i'm working with gradients is to eyedrop some of the intermediate color & paint it on, just to prevent it from looking too smooth. luckily fr tends to color the coverts & primaries/secondaries separately so we can get some edges in there.

3. painting 1 (texture, carving)

this is where my process stops being as defined. here i'll take the intermediate colors (like the last step) but use it to carve in feather details, and pull colors from the lineart to start adding shadows. one thing i like to do is shade the bottom of the secondary coverts no matter what! it separates the coverts & secondaries pretty effectively & looks good so i just think its neat.

anyway i try to get the idea of layers/volume across here + tweak the way the feathers are pointing if needed. thumbs up

4. painting 2 (round out lineart, fix everything)

this step will likely be a Lot easier if you have clean sketches. i don't because i'm inconsiderate towards my future self. what i'm doing here is cleaning up my lineart & blending it further into the wings so it looks softer.

this is also your last chance to fix any feathers LOL im really tired so i didnt end up fixing all of them (you can see some of the secondary coverts look kinda weird and whatnot) but after that its just more painting. and when you decide to call it quits congrats. you've painted a wing!

it's fairly quick but thats because im used to painting & use a brush with lots of sensitivity. i think this was ~40m from sketch to wing render. thumbs up.

hope this helps o7 i've also attached a speedpaint gif under the cut. its one of the ones where i bumble around a lot (couldnt find a proper reference) but maybe it'll be of use

whee

Interactive moment

Yap about your favorite Transformer and how they chose you (yes. You know you didn't choose your favorite. You wanted to like Optimus or Megatron, but here you are salivating over this obscure (or not-so-obscure) character. You know I'm right. They're haunting your dreams and there is no stopping that).

Feel free to reblog and attach your favorite figure, panel, screenshot, moment of them or a photo of your entire shrine.

I'm not tagging anyone because anyone who sees this moot or not is legally allowed to yap

Prowl and Soundwave. Those two, specifically.

I was always a fangirl for Optimus, and I liked Starscream. Upon rejoining the fandom as an adult, I picked those loves right up and off i went.

then i read a fic for research on decepticons. Wanted to learn about Megatron more to write him and high command better.

Next thing i know I'm in love with Soundwave, the dude who i didn't even look twice at (i didn't dislike him, but i held zero attraction, he was just kinda... There? Tfp sounders though actively intimidated me lmfao). And he led me to Jazz, who led me to Prowl, and now i'm stuck with the not good st conversation or social skills mechs whom most people (honestly quite rightly snd understandably) in univsers can't stand and would love to see dead for their war crimes.

i love these two smart idiots 😭😤
