It's that time of the year. I made my own Summary of Art template for 2025!
I. I know Akiro's in there a bunch. I... I can explain. But first, the usual yapping.
First off - I did draw a lot of facing portraits this year... I've always been a facing portrait girlie. I promise I did draw different angles as well, but those also happened to be my favourites.
In June, most likely my most productive month, I drew a bunch of my favourite pieces this year! I decided to go with Noah for this summary, though I wouldn't necessarily say it was my best drawn piece that month - but it was the most interesting. I also drew a short animation for @murderfabrication (including the infamous "Akiro fucking grabs you" shot), I also drew a fullbody CG for Murder Fabrication, then I drew two refsheets I was really happy with in preparation for Art Fight, and I even tried to bait people into looking at my art by redrawing Danganronpa fanart, except I chose a somewhat unpopular character... and I realised I truly can't bring myself to draw stuff that's popular, somehow.
Then in July, I participated in Art Fight! I feel a little uncomfortable using someone else's OC for Summary of Art, so I used a silly drawing I made of Akiro alongside @kir0nixx's "!!!". I otherwise wasn't super proud of my Art Fight drawings... I wish I could have done a better job of drawing these cool OCs;; my three favourite drawings are in this post, and include Akiro.
I also participated in OC-tober. My first few pieces were very rough around the edges, but as the month went, I think I drew some fun, creative pieces. My favourites are probably Vocaloid-Emily and, of course, a classic, a PINOCCHIOP MV redraw featuring Lois.
In November, I drew my piece for the @fandesignfanzine! Stay tuned for that! Since I worked hard on it, I only had time for a few doodle requests otherwise.
(I have yet to finish my "OEB" series, with one or two more characters alongside Oscar and Noah... I also plan on drawing more of my SynthV fandesigns! In May, I finally drew Wei Shu!)
And... fine... I'll address the Akiro in the room.
I love drawing Akiro. Now that the SynthV voicebank with his voiceclaim as its voice provider is out, I'll only draw him more. Thank you for your understanding (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)
