Happi 18th! Pier spots to glaze over...
Happi 18th! redraw of a continues piece, me & Mischevious at da pier! Twigs leanin forward to gaze at the water, paws kicking over the side of the wood and sunset dyeing eyes golden. Mischevious looks over the waves from behind.... fading blue with the stars, or bugs of dusk XD. the undersides of clods glow pale orange, the depths benath the old wooden port sway indigo. a teal fin spalshed beneath the pier ;]. wit double bronzer lineart, cast copper tones and alights Mischevious's hair. i wear a pink pillow case and striped long sleeve, leg warmers and ruffle shorts (wit my lil skunk tail); Mischevious has some dark (purplish in the light) shorts and a flowy light shirt, ruffle bottom. We both visited with masks, cuz reup and time passes! the strings float behind us both in the breeze, glinting gold in the sundown. My ear hearts r also there!!!! XDDDD
i kinda think this laptop thing was a bit of a blessing in disguise, i think it helps to tear back the pressure sensitivity and fancy brushes and just see what i can do, like the old times,when id pick colors for each shadow, not use blending layers. i draw on paper more abitiously? again, its fun. i want to practice so much, and this helped. using the layer modes at the end helped pinpoint, where i would lighten and deepen the darks of the artwork, and what those colors might look like on their own. still kind of strugeling with the pinks here, and how to describe the color as rosier than mischevious. though, i think the striped sleeve shading was pretty slick huhuhue/ uvvu. i really liked what the layer mode did to the color i put for the eye, it turned it copper, with ultraviolet blue like morning glories to me, the purple goes navy and the lavender goes cornflower. idk but it was cool im gonna compare the two basically.
Mischevious's short striation was based on a technique i did couple days ago for a watercolor/color pencil peice, aka 'twizzler hair' when i did it for glitters hair one time XD. just striat (flick the colors at eachother in like angle(s)/arcs to define the form) colors instead of blending then to create a shiny gradient effect. tbh, looks better irl, dont think i figure the colors proper here. ive also been trying to work on hair shading too, i think this'll help. other than that, i think i defintly don't know how to draw ocean waves XD, ill def keep redrawing this piece , its one of my favorites of these two, whetehr the original, or a reup meeting like this one, (theyre having a moment hush), also cinnabear fins cameos in this one under the pier, cuz its birthday themed lol.
i want to keep adding arcs to my art too, i think the shading on this is cool becuase like the sun itself , and then the blue opposite of it, the red sky splits the two, and makes it look like invisible wings comeing from twig, with Mischevious inside the second one/arc, kinda how Mischevious is in my world like this magic creature i can only hope to understand sometimes. (glimmers is so fly ong)
happi 18th! to me. been returning to my roots: gacha, toony animation/comic styles, animation memes, lined paper. i might do the hungry meem, i want to expand my library of drawable little foods XD! ( i never left nightcore)
and here's a couple little alternates, one layer linework still colored, black lineart, and no linework (but still effects)
