So I figured I'd make an art thread because I did have one before but it's full of old art and I've changed so much since then!
Also I'm trying to post and get involved more!
Warning, everything is sorta kiwiiiwiwii: (new to old for now)

Teagirl forever holds a special place though :]
Cute and sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet~
I like the last 2 a lot. They've got a lot of 'tude in their poses.
your designs are extremely cute and have a lot of personality! i love them

All of them are very cute and very well done I like the one you did for your brother :>

Your characters are so cute! I love them!
So much cute~! I look forward to seeing the rest of the process towards completion!
I like the hair and the huge adorable eyes
Also is that a digimon???
Aaah thanks! Nah, that's meant to be a dragon robot, but I am not very good at making things look robotic at the moment!
I like how you draw eyes shida
they look cute and fit your character´s heads very harmoniously
shida you have a very appealing style i like it:)
okay it only took me 2 months but i finally finished one of the wips that I started a long time about because i'm procrastinating by doodling instead of revising.
scaled down because the lineart ended up messy as hell but i sorta like it!

youve gotten alot better imo cuz now youre thinking in 3 dimensional forms instead of lines
but tbh your style was cute back then too
I like the changes you made in the eyes of your characters it fits their heads better and its +3kawaii than the old ones
Quote from: chickenyour style was cute back then too
My style has always been cute - it's like a curse, but yeah, I've been trying to think more in 3D, and I did for a bit, and then stopped because I don't get to draw properly so much when I'm at uni because of all the weekly problems. Thanks though, your comments are always appreciated

oh shizzle I forgot her lipstick oh well i'll change it for my big dA art dump after exams
When you say "Munchkin" are you talking about that card game?
^ that's what i thought too but it doesn't look like it. cute i like fairies ^-^
Cute fairy is cute!
Quote from: FuzzWhen you say "Munchkin" are you talking about that card game?
Quote from: rtil^ that's what i thought too but it doesn't look like it. cute i like fairies ^-^
Yup, I'm talking about the card game - the fairy is from one of the expansions and is called the Sparkly Good Fairy (my current icon is her card art). She encourages team work by rewarding players who help other places with her sparkly awesome treasure cards - until you actually kill her. If you do.
I felt like drawing her in my style though, because she's adorable ^.^
Quote from: HnilmikCute fairy is cute!
Thank yooou!
oh i've never seen that card before, but now that you mention it your avatar does look like the style of art in the card game
The expansion the card from was only released last year (I think) - and then they had to recall it because the foil used on the cards made them bend. I still have a set of the original, but I'm waiting for the non-bent ones to come out so that I can play games without knowing when the fairy is about to appear.
So far I think the fairy is the best female that Kovalic has drawn for the game - but I haven't seen many of the normal expansions, so I can't say for sure. She's certainly the cutest though ^-^

i like that you gave them slightly different body types, skin colors and eye-shapes but they still look very similar. giving them different noses and face shapes would help make them more distinct

Ah yeah, I can see it. Thanks Zhi, I will probably fix that up soon because it's a small thing (and drawing eyes are fuuun).

Ah I was wondering if anyone was gonna mention the body types. I have tried to vary the noses already but I guess I gotta exaggerate it a lot more! I'll keep it in mind for the next time I draw them. Thanks shura!

Looking pretty frickin' awesome
I can imagine the feel of the textures
Thanks again guys! I've been messing around with SAI's brush settings because as much as I love it for doing cell-shading (see Sparkly Good Fairy), I've noticed the watercolour and acrylic tools. I got curious with the watercolour settings and I ended up doing this. I wish using actual watercolours was as fun and easy as using them in SAI:

I take requests for silly little things like this cause they're fun - I once drew a middle aged batman punching a moon that had the face of dracula just because my 'bro' asked for it and it was an epic idea. I am supposed to be drawing a punk vs emo rocker guitar battle thing too, but I need work on my angles.
so yeah if you have epic ideas that I can doodle, i will probably do them for no charge!

this was pretty fun to research for, except for finding colours for the mod cause most of the photos were in black and white and I was so tempted to just colour the mod in greyscale but then he didn't really look like much of a mod, and now he looks like an extra from Austin Powers. Hurrah for 1960s britain!
Also I learnt that the mods and the rockers didn't really hate each other until the media started suggesting rifts between the two social groups!

Can you do a b/w watercolor of a fat pigeon with red eyes eating a piece of unholy bread?
cvg please tell me off the next time you see me in the irc so that I actually get that pigeon drawn ):
as well as drawing haphazardly, I crochet things (is that an art? I dunno, but it's handmade so I guess it counts)
I made a hat! It has a ribbed band, and the body of it is done with puff-stitches in the round which was then slip-stitched to give a sorta star-shaped closing thingy. /unimportant-facts

Thanks! Yeah, the gloves I'm making for now will be fingerless because I haven't got my head around stitch heights with each hook size, so making fingers that will fit properly is currently out of my skill range. One day though, one day.

and now I miss drawing so hopefully this thread'll be returning back to its ordinary schedule of cute cute cute cute cute drawings of people.
that hat is absolutely chic
okay i am posting what i have scanned in of the drawings i did while in crete in August/September
more to come though cause i'm 'busy'

I want that hat!
And Golbat?
i want a shihat now
Quote from: HnilmikI want that hat!
And Golbat?
sortaish! I was messing around with bat bosses and I remembered how much I love G1's Golbat sprite and thus drew this.
Quote from: Ashingtoni want a shihat now
PS: pay me money and I might just make some hats for peeps
Heee~ I also like your characters, as usual~ Especially the girl with the cat hat. She's all, "I disapprove"
i lurv dem all
man i let this get to page 3, what is wrong with me?!
Well I suppose most of the stuff I do on paper now and can't be bugged with scanning it all in so here have some teagirl that half of you have already seen probably.
is the first one teagirls' updated outfit? i like
Yeah, its her updated outfit for this year which is more of a mesh between a lot of older designs. I think its becoming tradition that her costume changes yearly though, but I'm really happy with this design.
i like the new design i just think she should have bare arms instead of those weird striped gloves
hmm, although I like the stripey gloves myself (teh for being different), I thought I'd give it a try with bare arms:
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebackalleys.com%2Fdump%2Ffiles%2F304%2F512Tg9_teagirlbarearms.jpg&hash=da42e5c98d598988a048aacc4a50c4fba00094c3)
but I think it looks just wrong for Teagirl to have bare arms and hands than to cover them up with stripey gloves.
she used to have black gloves like this
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebackalleys.com%2Fdump%2Ffiles%2F304%2F98Tt5_teagirlblackarms.jpg&hash=139a2cfbcbcbd3baa153e835d065e1331b5ebb9a)
cause TG, at least through the years, has had a habit of keeping one set of limbs completely covered - used to be her legs, now its her arms
and then I tried classic classic TG gloves
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebackalleys.com%2Fdump%2Ffiles%2F304%2F512P5h_teagirlblackgloves.jpg&hash=fd232811a4de2cdfdf1b78f2554ce820a0999c78)
so in essence, I have no clue, and my uncertainity is now exactly like the time I tried to give her a scarf
I like the new design too!
And awww, the coin purse looks nice and happy either way~
[EDIT] - oh, hi, you posted while I was typing slowly
I like the 3rd design the most
I like the first and third design. Maybe it balances out the darker colors I don't know but it looks a bit nicer.
I like it with stripes or black gloves that show a little arm like #3, but bare hands all alone looks plain (Also, it hides her fingerprints).
I really like this design shida. I think it looks better without the stripes and i feel like she looks better with gloves on.
Ah, thanks guys. Looks like #3 of the alt designs is most popular, so I'll go with that.
Gonna miss those stripey gloves, but I'm sure they'll just turn up on another character from another project at some point, teehee.
Welp I'm late, but I would have to go with the last design
I really did think the stripey gloves were fun to have though
Maybe incorporate the scarf into the next update?
Maybe. We'll see.
Anyway, another sorta CHARACTERPROFILEPIC.
Meet Coffeeboy, who isn't exactly a villain, just a wildcard in the system.

His colour scheme is not very imaginative, I know.
im going to draw him having sex with the starbucks siren
Shida, he's adorable.
Lenko, that is

Two replies:

2) You better not show anyone else but me (and you'd betta show me)
pick your favourite!!!
Quote from: HnilmikShida, he's adorable.

Thaaaanks!
I dunno, I sorta enjoy the smooth scheme of colors instead of being an eyesore
I also find the mixture in the design of his clothes to be pretty creative, saying it doesn't have to be flashy to have a sense of style
With the help of said colors, his expression gives him a calm and relaxed demeanor
My only question is about what he's wearing. It looks like he's mixed in his Coffeeboy costume with his regular clothes
With that said, from what I've seen (and read), he does indeed seem like someone who could end up on either side of the scale of good and evil pursuing his own coffee based interests.
PS.: What's with all the Starbucks comments aaaaaaaaaa
Well yeah, I was really wanting to get across the idea that Teagirl and Coffeeboy looked at their wardrobes and thought 'Yeah I could wear that', because at the end of the day, they're youngish and at varying levels of personal wealth. I guess I wanted them, as the Britland Central Duo (at least for the comics I write for Britland City) I wanted them to show that Britland isn't meant to be your typical supers-filled city with your typical supers. I admit its a bit jarring, particularly since Coffeeboy's mask is oddly small and not good at hiding his face, haha.
Thanks though!
Quote from: vegetaim going to draw him having sex with the starbucks siren
oh mah go
i think his color scheme suits him because those are coffee colors per say ^-^
I am in no way sorry for what you are about to witness.
I got bored, and also this is sorta a spoiler w/e

Putting my old art skills to good use there, yup.

someone gouged her eyes out D:
cute and truly terrifying at the same time.
Quote from: vegetaspoiler wha
Um, there is a point in one of the comics where the art style switches to the style I just drew TG in.
It's gonna be a fun comic.
Thanks spite! It truely is terrifying!

Nah it's like a patch-mask thing that adheres to his skin, just like Teagirl's mask thing. It's triangle shaped but I've never shown a drawing of him at the right angle to show it off (whoops)
Quote from: HnilmikWhat is that foofy fluffy thing~?! <3
That's Hot Cocoa, a sentient fluffy ball of chocolate whose voice box is a car horn. Its stomach is like a tardis without the time and space travel abilities.
tsundere girl.
Very cute, shida.
WEH WEH WEH
I did this for mrscriblam, I think its my fav. digital commission so far.

that brush works wonders with your style <3
Yeah I agree and thank you! Although it's just one of SAI's default inking brushes with some of the filters switched to some unknown value cause I have a very dodgy english translated version!
Thank you though
Oh yeah I still crochet things
This is for dilly

Quote from: creamcornholy shit thats good
Quote from: vegetalmao that is great
Thank guys! It took a while to do (I spent most of today just stitching it all together and weaving in loose ends) but I think it was really worth it
Next up is spite's scout beanie (really can't believe I have a waiting list on crocheted items, haha)
fuckin awesome
i plan to wear this scarf everywhere
thats so fucking cool. how long did it take
Quote from: emanhattanfuckin awesome
thank yooou
Quote from: dillybari plan to wear this scarf everywhere
gooood
Quote from: shurathats so fucking cool. how long did it take
Well bacon strips took about 40 minutes each so its about 4 hours on bacon
Eggs and yolks took about 40 mins each, so its another 4 hours on eggs
and then I spent today doing stitching and weaving so uh about 14 to 16 hours in total I guess
I adore that scarf. I HOPE YOU HAVE AN ETSY ACCOUNT.
I doooo, but there's nothing in my store at the moment >.>
IT'S SO COMFY

Ahh thank you. It's odd cause before this I hadn't drawn properly for at least 3 months due to various issues in my life, but definitely draw where you can!

yep
also I managed to condense my palette into a size that doesn't make me want to cry (far too used to having my palette limited as a marker artist so those colour wheels just make my head spin) so I made this straight away
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F28.media.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lqosqwFcQB1qzg21so1_500.jpg&hash=f3850b1fdf1284272adb6b24eb23069bf83bca9e)
which is more along the lines of classic shida doodle art I guess.
yay shida colors n_n
I honestly prefer the second one over the first.
Both are real nice though
Ahhh thanks Cipher.
I'm in agreement though. The first one is an example of what occurs when I'm given too much choice in terms of colours to use. I think I overworked how dark it is in order to contrast the light. I'll probably end up recolouring it with a more limited palette one day.
rtil I miss drawing girls with pretty colours :(
i think the first would have been better if it wasn't so grey
like if you mixed in red on the highlights and blue in the shadows
Ahhh that's a good plan. When I'm back on my main PC with my tablet next week I'll try adding in some red and blue and see how it goes.
it doesn't specifically have to be red and blue though, it could be yellow and purple or even green as long as you make the background match
dark, dank dungeons can be represented with a wide array of colors depending on the mood you want to convey ie green would be more like a nasty swampy/sewer type thing while red would be infernal/volcanic
you know, just as examples to make the background more pleasant to look at
also i just found out i've been using ie wrong and it should in fact be eg as it is an example

i like that monkey with the goggles, he is surely a fantastic character
he is the best
