I wanted to draw the keen in a grid, but then I thought, damn, pairing up the Techies means there's only 8 keen, and then I remembered there's actually one more, it's just that I never played Artifact....................... Anyway, my first time drawing Mazzie. I pretended he doesn't have a goiter neck.
my friends and I finally came up with a plot for these guys, so i had to paint my toreador poet Aurel 🥰…
he’s maybe a little emotionally unstable and disconnected from reality but being blood bound for the last half century or so would do that to you. He’s in a toxic relationship with his husband/sire Jaime and loves to spoil their adopted nosferatu daughter Lydia ..
he romanticizes everything, his situation, Lydia’s situation, Jaime as a whole. Occasionally finding himself obsessed with the drama and tragedy of mortal lives to inspire his new work 🥰🥰 he’s just got a lot of feelings!!🥰🥰🥰
shes so so pretty and i was so deliberate w every single detail about her in every outfit im too lazy to screenshot it all though so just trust me shes beautiful. id let her kill me. i love the lashes i found shes so cute and pretty. the betty boop hairstyle is SO perfect for her !!! thats literally aubrey!!!i think her face is genuinely the closest to how i actually picture it. maybe with a bit more of a double chin added tho, like a softer transition because theres more fat there and i can't add it yet in the sims but otherwise thats basically literally her. huge fan . miss joseph give me a chance. i didn't do a too good job with 2a they both look a bit off, thou..
still just having fun and playing touys.... im so happy i found a cute natural lippie for him i just know his lips are soft and prettay and hes easy to kiss. i rlly like this hairstyle even though i wish it was a bit messier. i like the soft natural hairline...
my problem is i dont think i can mess w the facial proportions here enough. his head isnt necessarily long hes got a good square jaw but also hes not model jaw mogging bc hes got a softer face in general otherwise but i cant seem to make it be both?? also im mad about the visible cupids bow LOL but ig thats realistic most people have a defined cupids bow ... but not aurel... the man in my head... i feel like he doesn't have much space between his eyes and eyebrows to me hes got HUGE lid space, and small almond eyes!!! but the proportions never looked right!! it kept making him look really stupid and also surprised as fuck if i tried bringing his eyebrows up lol. however its whatever its a cartoon hes still so so cute and so pretty.... woaw ..
raw. next.
i bludgeoned him bc i found some cigarette burn scars cc and it was sooo canon i genuinely short circuited. took no other screenshots of him because i dont respect him enough to care about his boring clothing choices. not pictured is all the bruises on his legs and back. also peep his dirty ass finger nails omfg. also i used makeup to make him look way more tired than this, but i think i should def download some more eyebags etc. he was arguably the hardest to do because i keep changing his face in drawings and i never know what to actually make him look like... i think i do basically fully have the essence tho. he looks pretty vietnamese to me im glad theres a few base game monolids with creases and i made him have thicker lips than i thought hed have because i think it looks more correct w the sims proportions.. i made him have a really european side profile (not pictured here just trust me) with a straight/button nose and a really prominent brow bone. it looks nise and contrasts aurels really rlly soft side profile (not pictured either) with his rlly sloped +flat brow bone. cute. its also a good enough compromise for ME because i dont know what makes mixed wasian people look . mixed. so hes half half depending on the angle LOLLLLLLLLLL. for some reason i kept making him have sunken cheeks from 1/4 pov and it pissed me off because he has a bit more of a squarish head but he does NOT have snatched cheekbones and i do think hes got some face fat ... bc hes cute.. but i guess its okay to say he has a propensity to have a gaunt face mr ive lost three litres of blood in the past week. so idk. whatever. i give up. he keeps giving me grief.
