Hello again, back with part 2 of grouping together all my remaining Our Life Inktober drawings because I'm dumb and forgot I had a tumblr for a month and a half : D
Day 23: step 3 Miranda and Terri Just a couple of buddies being pals; fully used this as a chance to practice drawing textured hair in my traditional style. I've been doing some practice work with it digitally, but I've always been bad at it traditionally so this was good. Definitely going to keep working on that!
Day 24: step 3 Baxter So canonically this man takes ballroom dancing classes and shit but you can't convince me that he's never taken ballet before, if only to further his flexibility to make this joke lmao. And in skinny jeans too-!
Day 25: favorite moment in step 3 It's a running theme with these prompts that I can't decide what the hell to draw because every moment is so damn good so yeah. Honestly though if forced to choose I would have to pick the dlc moment Reflection, because getting to hear a more in-depth and serious look at Cliff and Kyra's marriage and Cove's early childhood was absolutely incredible. It was so well done, especially with how lighthearted and fun a lot of the game is. But I couldn't think of anything to draw for that moment and was stuck thinking about the dlc Happiness moment so yeah, I ended up drawing that bit at the end where you switch the plans on Cove and take him to the poppy field <3
Day 26: halloween outfits! I didn't want to go too ambitious considering I was already super behind in the event at this point, so I just drew step 1 Cove and Hunter in their spooky costumes. Cove is a zombie, as per canon for the year he got his cast off, and he convinced a reluctant Hunter to dress up too. Hunter, as a little brat, thought dress-up was dumb, but humored his friend by picking a blood-splattered biohazard suit thing lmao
Day 27: step 3 charity outfits Just a lovely drawing of the boys in their suits for the charity moment. Hunter wasn't a member of ORCA, but went to support his bff. Bonus flustered Cove slowly coming to terms with his feelings for his friend~
The last few prompts of the month were about step 4 and the poppy hill and I decided to just kind of combine them all into a big finale piece since by that point it was already November and I was getting burned out pushing out a drawing a day lmao. The finale project is going to take a while, mostly because I decided to be stupid again and try more comic page type stuff. Oh and did I mention my ambitious ass is going to turn the messy traditional art I've done for the finale piece into good digital art? Yeah, don't expect to see the rest of this any time soon haha I have bit off way more than I can chew. 2022 goals I guess.
Anyway, I really liked doing the Inktober event, despite falling off the rails at the end there. I've always been real insecure about my art, so forcing myself to get it out there every day for a whole month is a good push of my limits. And now I know I can whip up a whole traditional drawing in like 5-7 hours if I need to, though I still prefer taking my time haha. Thanks to everyone who has left likes on my previous posts; yall are awesome.
And as always, Our Life belongs to the lovely GB Patch Games~
