I wanted to do a little comic progress update because it's been awhile since I've posted about my comic
i have been distracted to be honest, mostly with my delusions and trauma. However I have been making a lot of progress with my mental healing. I have been working on perspective and for shortening which is difficult to do. I had to redraw this a few times and I have been learning more about how to draw stuff at angles. To be honest the shapes I'm having to draw at angles are very difficult but it's a good learning experience.
I am still gonna put more detail on the pages but I need to finish the rough poses first. I feel like the left arm and leg of the drawing sorta look a little short but also it's supposed to be foreshortened but I feel like I should make the limbs a little longer.
I am working a lot on my consistency when it comes to the shape and size of things. I think the issue I've had is that I tend to try and just draw freehand all of the stuff without much reference because I often get too wrapped up in the exact pose. However I'm using some looser references, now I just have a reference and look at my reference whenever I need to make an adjustment on my drawing.
I'm also doing a lot of different angles so I have to get the shape and sizes more consistent. I'm using a measurement of the head of this Krit species which is a little different from the human ratio. I'm thinking the forearms are a little longer than a humans and also the torso is definitely a little longer than a humans
Drawing is very cathartic, I feel like it helps a lot to draw when i need to calm down. However I also have had issues with anger and frustration so sometimes I need to rest and destress if I get too frustrated and flustered.
