I drew four OC illustrations for other people (by request). While working on them, I faced a lot of challenges — especially with poses, anatomy, and coloring. The usernames I mention below are their TikTok accounts.
The first illustration is for @thdungcutenntg’s OC. Yes, I’ve already posted this artwork before, but I wanted to share my thoughts while drawing it. I think drawing their OC in their own art style was really cute and fun to do! Most of my time went into drawing the clouds and the OC’s dress. I struggle a lot with drawing skirts that look like they’re floating in the air, so this was definitely a challenge for me. I also noticed that they ship their OC with Wally, so I added a small detail: their OC is holding Wally’s favorite red apple (more specifically, a candy apple) — it’s meant as a gift for Wally. There’s also a tiny tag that says “For Wally”, though it might be hard to see because it’s small.
Second drawing — OC by @darkxwolf80. I think their OC is very unique, and I really love the design. To be honest, I really struggle with drawing Barnaby’s body, so I decided to cover part of it with flowers and their OC, and I think the result actually worked out pretty well.
Third drawing — OC by @pickupbar3. At first, I wanted to add some Gyaru-style elements to their OC, because their design gave me Gyaru vibes. The OC’s creator even said it was okay. However, after thinking about it more, I decided not to go too far with it. Instead, I added a few subtle Gyaru-inspired details in the background, like long eyelashes and pink bows. The OC’s creator was incredibly kind and complimented me a lot — I was honestly a bit embarrassed... They even used this drawing as their profile picture for a while. Even though they’ve changed it now, it still made me really happy!
Fourth drawing — OC by @sage_artzzz. To be honest, I feel like this one turned out really bad. I don’t know why, but I suddenly felt like I forgot how to draw. The body proportions feel very off, and the colors don’t feel right either. Even so, the OC’s creator asked if I wanted to be friends — of course I said yes! They also told me I’m talented, but when I look at this drawing, I feel like I might have disappointed them. But the most important thing: they drew my OC, Noe!!! And it looks amazing! This is the first time someone has ever drawn my OC, and I’m genuinely so grateful. I really, really love it!!!
Because of my current situation, I won’t be drawing any more OC requests for now. I’m really sorry, and I hope you can understand.
