Hiiiii! Your art is lovely. You draw Caine with so much emotion and dynamism! I’d like to draw him more, but I really struggle with his teeth/head. Would you be willing to share any tips for how you approach drawing him? No worries if not; thanks for sharing your art with us. 💖
Thanks for the question!
I wasn't sure how to explain it in words, so I made a little visual guide for you.
① Imagine a 3D western-style toilet seat. (Sorry, Caine! lol)
② Add some thickness toward the back teeth. The small diagram on the left shows what the dentures look like from directly above.
③ Give the silhouette some definition by rounding the corners and adding subtle curves.
(Actually, adding a jagged texture to the molars makes it look more realistic, but I usually skip that part! 😅)
④ Finally, pop the eyeballs inside.
Bonus:
On the right side, I added my go-to "lazy" way to draw Caine! 😂
Explaining things is hard, but I hope this helps you even a little bit!
And one more bonus!:
Here’s my personal tip for creating expressions.
I expand his range of emotions by combining the movement of the gums with the shape of the eyeballs and the size of the pupils.
hey may i ask if you've ever posted those little doodles of marcille wearing costumes of different monsters? i feel like i remember seeing them once but I can't find them anymore...
I haven't since some of them are spoilers.. I have an excuse to do it now tho :3
"Marcille dressed up as monsters.
I wanted to draw all the monsters, but there were more than I expected. I often asked myself, 'Why am I doing this?' "
