attempting to draw better guys... I've never been good at drawing males!

[thesuperferret]

Well, I was an adult and did my washing and ironing, so I earned drawing time!

Mini comics, because I get bored:

1 - When people tell me how something works when they have no idea

2 - My house during the heatwave

In videogames, you die a lot and respawn unaltered. Write about the entity that heals you completely before going back to your game.

[thesuperferret]

It appears to you to take mere seconds, the respawn time they call it; for me though it's a long and agonising process with a dark creature more sinister than death.

It emerges from the darkness, eyes dark and almost invisible; but I know they're examining me, observing the state I'm in this time. The creature stands before me like a thousand corpses cobbled together with a rough layer of rotten flesh and tissue hanging from it. The stench of soil and offal drifting through the air as it reaches out with its foul hand. As it clenches its fist, my body twists in agony; broken bones contort and snap back into place, bullets pour from their entry points and my skin stretches, pulling itself together.

As the last creaks and snaps fade out, and the pain begins to subside; the creature moves its hand to its chest. A bright light emanates from behind it, blinding me completely.

That's when I awake, at my spawn point.

The lip sync tutorial they DON’T give you

I mentioned on twitter that I wanted to do a lip sync tutorial and immediately got some people who were interested so I put one together real quick!

I’m going to use a bit of unfinished lip sync from my taz animated part as reference. They’re just gifs so no sound, but you should still be able to tell that he’s saying “I’d say a solid B… Solid B minus.”

Anyone who’s looked up how to do lip sync has seen phoneme charts. Phonemes are just the shape your mouth makes when you make certain sounds.

When you do lip sync, you want some kind of reference to make sure it’s right

What’s easiest is to say it yourself and pay attention to the shapes your mouth is making. Since you’re going frame by frame, your audio is slow enough that you can make each shape slowly and distinctly and you can get each individual phoneme down in the animation.

Don’t do this.^

An easy way to tell if you’re animating lip sync wrong is if you run out of frames to make each shape. You don’t need them! Making each shape is unnatural. People talk quickly and the mouth doesn’t have the time to get into each shape. They blend together, sometimes to the point where the shape doesn’t change at all!

Not only does the 2nd gif take less frames and energy to make, it’s more relaxed, it looks less distracting, and his lips are much easier to read!

These are reference charts to show the differences more clearly

This is the difference between getting swallowed up in every last detail and paying attention to reality.

What matters more than hitting every syllable is making it look natural and flow with the acting. That’s why anime mouth flaps can work so well. A strong pose through the whole body matters more than one mouth shape.

I LOVE this!

First attempt at Jonathan, with a loved up Sock ❤ [Characters belong to Erica Wester]

Really wanted my Dhamphyr and Puppet girls to have a pet. This one had a rough life until they adopted it and gave it a forever home.

I like drawing in a multitude of styles, so here's my OC Nosipho
