I am Popcorn and I Draw Stuff

I am Popcorn. Here I post art of things I like. That will be all!

[ppcrn-krnl]

Seeing that "I'm your man" shot of Avery makes me crave to see him in action... Love how you do action poses and would love to see it more in your styleee

Also you asked for song recs, been musing about the boys with "Who Are You Really?" by Mikky Ekko. If that's anything 🤭

Ask answered! When I saw "action poses", the traditional answer would probably be combat or sword fighting (which I will do too one day), but I really wanted Avery to do some surfing 😼

Besides that OH MY DAYSSS I love this song rec so much, I did some story beats for the first bit of the song!! If anyone wants to grab the concepts and actually do something with them, please be my guest!! I wanna see this done but I don't have the time 😔

Bonus: I drew them in clothes I have IRL! Sorry about the annotations it was super unserious 🥀

Post-script: "who are you, really? "frame with the colours is inspired by @ama_a93 and another art piece I once saw with the same pose, but I can't find it 😣 + the censorship is because I disliked the doodle and thought it would be funny to censor it like the ARG did lol

[ppcrn-krnl]

Okay, Avery. You can stay.

More arts and bonus OC art! These were all overflow from yesterday's post eheh

Matcha Mousse's hair is inspired by the tufts on Rhythm guide's hair in Sky: COTL, and her design and theming were originally for cookie run: kingdom 😭

GUYS I have so much art please eat up!!! Fakevery and Fakeder incoming! More close-ups are under the cut.

Sliiight badly drawn blood/unsettling imagery warning but it's nothing too serious I think (LAST IMG before cut)

Nvm idk why the post formatting is so chopped I can't add a cutoff 😭

THE LORD WHO DEFEATED A KING [animation loop]

On FlipaClip, around 2 days' work on and off...... The plume and the cape flowing guys..........my hands cramp up in memory of trying to animate them

Animation process/alt versions under the cut!

Really sad that I coloured in the top bit of his armour manually for each different frame and then it all gets covered by the cape 🥀

The hardest bit IMO was trying to combine the different flowing loops from part 1 (Der looking to the side) and part 2 (Der writing in his book) it took SO LONG because they just looked so choppy and wrong. Even now the cape looks really choppy in the transition but I can't fix it 😭

[ppcrn-krnl]

Bunch of traditional doodles again! I have 2 big assignments and an exam to go...

Fakevery - I really wanna design/draw him cause he's just so unsettling... When I first saw him in DAWTDE, I was fairly confused but in hindsight, his entire mannerism was so creepy?? Extremely chill and unbothered with the whole situation. No questions, confusion or fear?? As well as understanding complex puzzle mechanics on the get-go.

"lol"

"see what"

" I mean it seems consistent. It makes sense to me. "

"don't you wanna look around at least"

Der was right, Fakevery was completely unconvincing. Even though TKIY put a bit of thought to make sure he incorrectly quoted Conway's game of life ("like Kanye's something") the entire act was nothing like how a normal person would react??? Mischaracterised Avery by a mile. I was, however, convinced the block breadcrumbing was all Der.

Anyways I'm going to open up my ask box soon and start sorting thru them 😼 so if you have a request/question or tomatoes to throw, now is the time!!

[ppcrn-krnl]

Actually let me put this here too bc it's annoying to leave an app to watch it on another 😓

Enjoy! Or not! Also posted on my YT.

I'M YOUR MAN - mitski - Destroying a World that Doesn't Exist (animatic)

Stills below:

My favorite frame of the entire thing has to be Avery's "I'm your man", ahhhgggggghhhg........my slime boy. Our slime boy 🟢

If you've read this far, please rb/comment happy things to draw next, I promise I'm not angst-only 😭✌

[ppcrn-krnl]

Assorted traditional doodles this time! I pulled an allnighter to finish a hellish amount of assignments for uni... can you tell I was coping hard bc I was.

Avery is fortunately very expressive and fun to draw and they both kept me company all night 🫶🟢

What pulling 24h+ at the library after work will do to a feller 😔

Bonus: the full doodle spread and D3rlord3 ahh looking logo on a pair of pants I have 😭 Not it having Derek's initials on it too

[ppcrn-krnl]

Avery what's in your inventory? <redraw>

Got some loose change ahh pose. Original post here

I did a small redraw of my first post here! Am happy I found a good art style and rendering style I enjoy drawing in eheh

It looks extremely different I know, I promise it's by the same person 🥀

What I like from the original: the shading and rendering, plus darker colours work nicer with the atmosphere. I just don't like the way I drew Avery.

What I like from the remake: the painterly rendering is nice. Could be a bit darker and I could have added the wooden sword + put Avery a bit farther back and closer to the platform edge.

Full img/comparison below:

Not to be a sap on here but, I'm really struggling right now with just about everything. Being alive is difficult. I'm far from where I want to be, but this community has been like a light in the dark and you all keep me going, so my sincere thanks for that 🫶

Numerous times in the day I just come back on here to scroll through beautiful art, read the funny reblogs and comments, and they genuinely put a smile on my face. Love you all!

Hurts pt. 2

Pt. 1 here

Hey everyone!! Thanks so much for the support and bearing with me through the angst! I think I may have gone overboard with this, but I spent too much time on it to go back now and I really like the sunset gradient! I don't know if it was worth trading the simplicity/original grey vibe but I think it still looks pretty.

I read all reblogs/hashtags/comments and asks, and I really appreciate all the interactions 🥹

Love you all! But after this, it's completely within your right to hate me 👍

[ppcrn-krnl]

Avery preening D3r's wings/trying to figure out how they work (where his ears should be). anyone

Yes! I think Der would find it extremely relaxing and relieve some of his headaches even if Avery gets all his slime over them. I also wonder how he hears with head wings lol, I would assume they act like the pinna of animal ears and swivel to direct sound?

Art dump coming up! I'm also soft launching my Sky: COTL art + personal art + new drawing software (Magma). Consider this a temporary peace offering 🙏

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE ATTENTION (and attempts on my life/j) ON THE "Hurts" COMIC! I'm so glad you guys "liked" it!!

And let me just say.............er.............i'm really sorry for what I'm about to do in part two

[ppcrn-krnl]

Hurts

Part two here

Sorry guys 😣

[ppcrn-krnl]

Big sketch page/art dump done! I'm really happy with how these turned out honestly 😭

Der with big golden-tipped wings were inspired by this post by @xxgl1tch-b1tchxx !

Ok I give up on post formatting, every time I try to add a cut it just moves the images around 🥀

That aside, thanks everyone for so much love on my art thus far! I'm floored by the support 🫶

If you have art requests or ideas, please drop an ask!

[ppcrn-krnl]

AU where Avery also gets shown The Infinite Knowledge TM and now they both have migraines.

Sketch and extra doodle under cut

[ppcrn-krnl]

"There's no such thing as too many D3rlord3's! " I say with joys.

I then proceed to draw D3rlord3 57 times.

Oh well, I'm cringe but I'm free ☝

Oh wow. I did not realise how desaturated and dark the colours looked until I actually put them here. mb gng 😭

[ppcrn-krnl]

I think I'm finally happy with the way I draw Avery??¿¿ Next is Derek, but he's harder to draw and I'm mulling over it until I like it

Sad slime

Every post of mine looks like it was drawn by different people because I'm so inconsistent brah, please disregard lol

[ppcrn-krnl]

Mfw bro actually speaks enchantment table

Unholy time of night for me, but this is what happens when you suddenly get inspiration after months of art block and pent up Artist's Rage

I actually have more but I'll save it for a separate post I think

[ppcrn-krnl]

Trying to simplify a design for Derek and Avery 🥲

Still progressing on that animatic too! I'm one minute in, gonna take a while still ugh

I love the way everyone draws them so differently and yet literally every art style works for them, they're just too iconic
