I don't think I ever posted my idea for Ultimate June on here before.

I've seen a lot of interpretations of Ult!John and most of them have been on the hard lines of goofy/heroic or stone-cold-hero, and so I decided to do my take on it with June, because if any version of Egbert is gonna go ultimate its gonna be in a timeline where she's comfortable as June.

Light a match, boys. She's kerosene. And she's gonna burn down EVERYTHING.

You either die a hero...

...or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

❝ No, I know he is. My Grandfather, he killed him--!❞

❝ Your Grandfather was a FAILURE to the fire nation. You will find the map to the last airbender. You will do what your grandfather could not... ...And you will restore your bloodline's honor.❞

I started working on a Star Wars / Avatar TLA Crossover. Its not completely accurate to the Star Wars narrative–The world still largely believes that Vader died from his wounds after killing Luke, and Han (The Earth Kingdom General) succeeded Leia since she would have been an airbender.

Vader/Anakin was actually an airbender, but disguised himself and through political manipulation and raw power was able to ascend to the status of Fire Lord. Kylo instead inherited his firebending from his father, Han, who was born in the fire nation… Snoke tells Kylo that he has royal blood, and convinces him to join him and become the crown price, but he doesn’t know the truth until much later. 

Spoilers, Rey isn’t the sandbender she thinks she is. Finn is an ex-firebender who refuses to bend. Poe is a water tribe non-bender who resides in the earth kingdom. There’s a lot more, but I think I’ll save the details for other posts, but feel free to send an ask if you’re curious.👀

They didn't get to fight like how I wanted but they still kicked some gem ass and it's way more than I had hoped, holy shit.

When you draw something actually pretty ok but it's for a class so you'll prolly never get it back Rip

constant mood recently

[fangirlinginleatherboots]

things i did that forced me to be a better artist:

used a reference for everything

thinner line art (you think thats thin? go thinner….)

sketch, then do a cleaner sketch, THEN start finalizing

THUMBNAILS

color research, picking a set palette or light/dark for each work

you like that pose? redo it one more time

USE A DAMN REFERENCE

do not rely on stylization as an excuse for anatomy

draw the goddamn background you coward

just draw the hand- a bad hand is better than a hidden hand

the rule of thirds WORKS

take a considerable break between sketch and lines/paint

know that art takes longer as you get better at it

draw the seams on clothes

stop aiming for accuracy and focus on fluidity and motion, accuracy will come with practice of those two concepts

just…do the chiaroscuro. just DO IT. no excuses it always works

stop making excuses, make yourself an art schedule/set weekly(or daily) art goals and just DO IT.
