#like really rough

[littlebiterbeetle]

Can any of y’all totally not point a poor broke college student who refuses to support Disney in the direction of a definitely legal and not pirating free site to watch Dragon Striker on?

really really rough sketch

I’m planning on making a cover if you will for Taiji so this is like a really rough sketch of the base. This is on paper but I am planning (trying) to draw it digitally so wish me luck…(but like seriously though this is probably gonna be the biggest shit show sense…uh… idk the last big shit show

I really like your handwriting!!

In all seriousness, that's very nice thanks you. Normally my letters run together much much worse. I basically half write in cursive and when I write quick it's very messy.

Basically I've always thought of my handwriting as unreadable, so that's very nice to hear, thank you very much.

I just want to show that this is what the first sketch looked like for my previous drawing of The Mitchells Vs The Machines

And then here's some WIPs for whenever I have time

College is kicking my ASS

This picture is SO wonky, the hands are AWFUL, the line angles all look weird, and I will definitely be redoing this at a later date. HER HAND IS NOT BACKWARDS THE SHADING JUST MESSED IT UP!!! But, I just started watching the Lego Monkie Kid (why is it spelled like that?? why not monkey?) and I was expecting to hate it because all the other Lego shows have been corny and unenjoyable. I like the Lego Movie and I really, really like the Lego Batman movie, but the shows? No. A few friends on here really like Monkie Kid, though, and I do love Journey to the West, mostly for Sun Wukong who is amazing. So, I gave it a try.

It’s. So. Good.

Still definitely a kids show, still definitely somewhat corny. But the animation is gorgeous, the colors are gorgeous, the characters are mostly all great, especially Sun Wukong and his “darker” rival, Macaque. I love their designs so much, and their voices, and their personalities, they’re just chef’s kiss. This isn’t even the story I’m working on this month, but I had to make fanart. I had to. Which is why this picture is so rushed and wonky. I did try to do research on their outfits and on making my OC, so I hope she’s respectful to the Chinese culture. Please let me know if I made a mistake and need to fix something.

Further description under the cut.

This is Tao, which supposedly means Peach. Because, you know, Sun Wukong. I haven’t fully decided on her backstory yet. I kind of want to go with my usual base to work off of, which is someone from our world. But the problem is, I just don’t know enough of Chinese culture and the foundations of how that effects mindsets and worldviews, which would form all of Tao’s decisions from the get-go. 

The rough draft I’m thinking of is a side story separate from the show, because I also can’t choose exactly when in the show to place Tao in. Maybe I’ll figure that out as I watch more, but it has to be at a point where Mac can reasonably at least somewhat be redeemed as a villain without it being confusing if he goes back and suddenly is evil again. I don’t want to make Tao overpowered, because this is a show about world-ending heroes and villains, so she has to be an ordinary girl with a winning personality. But, that mean I need to put Mac and Sun on her level to even be willing to get to know her.

So, what I’m thinking is this: maybe there’s an alternate world where MK never existed. DBK rose thanks to his wife and son, like in the show, but without MK, used the staff immediately and quickly laid waste to the world. I don’t now if that world’s Sun didn’t get there in time or died or was captured or what, but he’s not there to save the day. DBK became too powerful and became a vacuum, a black hole, and swallowed himself, his family, and all the energy left on the planet. Or something like that. Something that will make it so if our Mac and Son got teleported there, they suddenly find themselves powerless.

Tao would be along for the ride, somehow. I don’t know why she’d be there, too. Maybe she got caught in whatever blast sent them there. Maybe Red Son made an invention to send them “where they couldn’t win” or something vague like that, the show tends to have gimmicks like that, like having DBK be powered by “rare and expensive things,” which is pretty arbitrary. This means we have powerless Mac and Sun, and a normal human, and they all have to survive together and get back to their own Earth. This leads to them becoming very close.

I haven’t developed Tao much either. I’m thinking maybe a naturalist, like a gardener or something. Someone to appreciate life in all its forms. Definitely streetwise, hence the street clothes. Overdramatic flairs to mesh with Mac and Sun’s own drama. Lots of patience to get through their thick skulls. Very trustworthy. But I don’t have anything less vague yet. I know I want their relationships to end up with her and Sun being romantically involved and Mac being her platonic soulmate, so they’re both equally close to her in slightly different ways. That’s all I have for now.

I don't usually draw people, or at least I don't usually complete many pieces with people but there is something so nice about rough sketches.

I don't have to complete them, they loosen me up before working on other pieces, I love doing them after work to relax, and they can be as messy and undetailed as I want.

These are just some of my favorite ones that I looked at and was like 'oh! Those are neat!'

So... my attempt at drawing criminals??? Person on the left is the hacker, person on the right is the muscle, person in the middle is sort of a jack of all trades/leader, and person on the bottom is the one who got dragged into this mess. Sounds like a wattpad story if I’m being honest.
