Locality Receptacle

I’m just a silly little guy making art and music. I’m aware that I’m not great at it, but I’m learning so please be respectful. Here’s my SoundCloud if you wanna hear my music: https://on.soundcloud.com/lVWM90PA296xH24E07

This one also could be better but I’m feeling uninspired and want to get on with my day

[locality-receptacle]

This one definitely could have been better, but limbs are hard to draw, and I wanna do other things with my day. It definitely did go off the rails though

I decided to lean into horror a bit more for this one, and I think it turned out nice. Most pieces are probably gonna be sketches like this one that don’t have any color. I have the time to do more, but I wanna do other things than art today, and this is more about the creative process and idea making than actually creating a pretty artwork. At least it is for me

This one is a pretty significant drop in quality from the last one but I dont have time to put in a lot of effort today. I am still working on how to make it look good when it is just lines.

First day, yay! I really liked how this one turned out but also this took my entire afternoon and evening so I will probably not be doing many full artworks for this challenge. Regardless, it was very fun and I am starting to get the hang out digital art (you just need an excessive amount of layers).

Okay so I actually had a way better idea for a an art challenge so instead of Mermay I will be doing a thing of my own creation that I have dubbed Annual Animal Amalgamfest

My friend is currently guiding me through the game Lobotomy Corporation right now. It’s not going well. Anyways, I decided to draw a moment moment in our conversation in the format of that one meme with Anakin and Padme.

Okay so this month is definitely a really bad month to do daily drawings so I’m gonna probably pick Mermay back up after finals.

Okay I can already tell that I’m not gonna finish the drawing today. I haven’t even started and I go to bed in an hour and a half which is not nearly enough time. May is honestly an awful month to do a drawing a day in but I’ll see what I can make happen. This will probably end up going well into June. Anyways here’s this drawing a made of a funny comment my friend made when we were playing Project Snowbound Blood. Shout out to the probably zero people (unless my friend is reading this) who know what im talking about.

Mermay Day 3: epizoanthus xenomorphoideus

This sure is one really messed up looking creature. I seriously recommend looking this thing up because it’s weird. Anyways this drawing I started a bit from the source material so to speak but it turned out nice. I really like how to colors ended up and I think im getting a lot better at shading. I also tried highlight for the first time. Im how’s toy just winging it with the shadows but I like how it looks. I think this challenge is helping my art skills a lot. Anyway look at my weird creature

Mermay day 2: Sea Angel

I really like how this turned out! It also took far less time than I expected, certainly less than the last one. I’m starting to get a better feel for how to go about doing digital art (how many layers to use, what order to do things in, etc). I also am getting the hang of how shading works now and I gotta say, shading really is the component I have been missing. I also discovered some very useful brushes that made this a whole lot easier. I don’t know how to end this post so have a good day I guess.

Mermay Day 1: Antarctic Sunstar

Whew this took pretty much the whole day to do, but I think I learned some stuff so it should go faster next time. I’m trying out this lineless style for the first time and I really like it! It let me do a lot more shading which I think turned out really well.

Hello world! This makes the beginning of me posting on social media. I haven’t done this in years and to be honest I can’t see this going well but it seems like an interesting endeavor and I have things I feel like sharing with the world. Who knows. Maybe my Tumblr will blow up and I’ll be famous and actually be able to do it for a living. Thats not gonna happen, but it would be pretty cool if it did. Well I actually would probably hate being famous but doing art for a living would be fun. Anywhoozle, I digress. The main point of this post is to say I’ve begun to do Mermay! The prompt list will be in the attached image. Posts will vary in quality depending on how much time I have to work on them that day, and I’m likely gonna have to miss a few days, but I’ll try my best. I’m planning to take these prompts in a more Abhorrent Water Hominid direction, so that should be fun. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the rest of your day and see ya!
