Happy October, everyone! I’m going to do my best to participate in Inktober this year, let’s see how this goes :) I have zero experience with inks so I am going to learn a lot! Anyone else joining?
i made this for a pouch but i cant decide whether i like it enough to print it HMMMMMMM
Really interesting colors.
Space Navy uniforms The Cosmic Joke is a webcomic about the first AI with a sense of humor and a pilot on the run from his ex boyfriend.
She has seen me through dark waters. Soon she will see me unobscured.
Hey guys, I posted a new Tutorial video on the youtubes! (https://youtu.be/ErqybRaA24k). Feel free to check it out! I show a timelapse of my Wonder Woman painting.

Check out her shop on Etsy. (MoWest on Etsy) She can make you custom sized amazing clothes. I know multiple performers who swear by her work. . . . The Cosmic Joke is a webcomic about the first AI with a sense of humor and a pilot on the run from his ex boyfriend. Link in bio.
Gays are only acceptable in the form of Soviet propaganda
every time i see that last picture it completely baffles me as to what ELSE it could possibly be meant as does anyone know what the children are supposed to represent?
what a beautiful family
groundbreaking
Oh my God, it's my OCs. They are like magical prophecy children now.
Preparing for Inktober 2017?
I am too! And to get inspired, I have put together 8x Inktober prompt lists, to help us create something really cohesive and cool this October
Prompt lists:
- Post Apocalyptic Wanderers
- Anthropomorphic People
- A Steampunk Adventure
- Space Travellers
- Super People
- Characters for a fairytale
- Characters for an urban fantasy
- Characters of the Forest
Enjoy and share!
Two of the main characters, Daniil and Zihao grew up in the Northern Furong region of Long Xin. Long Xin is a militaristic planet with few natural resources. Their town is cold and covered in Tundra.
There are also large sinkholes that connect the surface to an underground ocean system. Daniil converts an underground island into a secret hideout.
While most of Long Xin is Chinese descent and speaks a dialect of Mandarin, Daniil and his father Yegor are native Siberian and also speak Russian.
Daniil and his father have an unfamiliar ethnicity, so I put together some references. Almost all these photos are of native Siberians, which is comprised by many tribes. Some tribes are highly related to the Alaskan Inuit people, and some are far more related to Central and East Asian people. The bottom right photo is of Hao Yun Xiang, a Chinese model I'm using as the main face reference for Daniil. He had all the major features I wanted to capture and (bonus!) models are photographed a lot from tons of angles.
Pro tip: try to use models as face references. They usually aren't as recognizable as actors but there's a ton of material. The downside is less face and body type variation. Stock photos are also great if you can find a large set with the same person.
Thumbnails! This is the beginning of the second story arc, which follows childhood friends Zihao and Daniil and is one part love story one part space warfare military nonsense with VR.
Woah damn that hair. I need to practice PoC curls so badly. These look great.
Pandora, the first AI to have a sense of humor, does not find this gift from Quinn amusing.

Character design goals: making a headshot this memorable
So, I was thinking about the importance of anatomy, even if you have a highly stylized art style. I thought I’d make this simple thing for demonstration.
To the left is my recent redraw, and to the right is a picture from, I believe, 2011? So why did I take that picture? It’s missing hands, legs, feets and even partially her hip area. The reason I chose this is because it it’s a good example of trying to stylize something you don’t understand - in this case, the body. It shows, and it’s obvious the anatomy is twisted and incorrect. I even used the same proportions I warned about in an old tutorial of mine, to which someone told me that some might like drawing it that way. And as I said before, go ahead, but the errors will be more than obvious to an observer.
However, if you learn anatomy correctly, you can actually use this to your advantage so that you can draw the things you like — yes, even the ‘incorrect’ things — because you now know how to bend the rules instead of outright breaking them.
So you might think you yourself: all that really changed about Zemael’s style was the fact that the palette changed and her character design improved. While it’s true that those things did change indeed, a lot more happened than that. Not only has anatomy helped me learn about gesture drawing, making the pose much more natural (I mean, look at that stiff barbie pose on the old drawing) and fluent. It also helped me learn how to use the rules of anatomy and adjust them to my style without it looking impossible. They both got the same body, technically: slim body type, small waist, close set chest, straight shoulders and long neck. But then look at the bottom picture and really compare the two again. As you can see, there’s not only a completely different flow in the picture, but the drawing to the left makes more sense compared to the one to the right. Of course, it could do with some adjustments (I didn’t spend too much time on this thing) but it certainly appears more believable. And, again, it uses the same proportions! On the left, the chest appears stiff and misplaced, the ribcage is entirely deformed, the waist appears to have no movement and seems squished inwards, her legs appear to have no balance and her thighs are longer than they need to be, her shoulders are off balance with the hips, her neck seems to thin out at the top, and her arms have no joints. Meanwhile, the one to the right have a balanced pose, steady legs, her chest, hips and shoulders in line with each other, her waist small but not enough to look unnerving, it appears flexible, her arms in line with the shoulders, posed correctly, and her chest in line with her torso and in perspective. And this is all because I studied anatomy, and I understand it. You don’t have to be an expert at it, but it is important to understand it.
This is why anatomy is good to learn. No, you don’t have to draw realistically. But it will certainly help you IMPROVE the style you have or is aiming for.
SUPER important! This makes me want to do a side by side from the last 3 months even.
