I need to talk to some fellow artists and I need to work of an avatar of a headcannon. -.- I've search everywhere for something good (even within my own art) and I have nothing. So... Here I am going to start another project. My attempt at refs: (Guy in the middle) (Guy in the middle) (Guy on the left) (How's this. At this point, it isn't the tiger.) So basically I'm drawing something for the dimensions 150px X 150px or something that can be shrunk down to that. I'll post WIPs as I go. Wish me luck. x.x

No worries!
I'm doing fine! Actually sketching, ahaha. I hope to get around to some colouring tomorrow, so I can start posting here again.

I don't know whether I was crazy or whether I'm actually starting to open up more. Maybe a touch of both. But that aside! I finished the background on this avatar. Sort of. And I hope you finish it as well! I want to see it.

Krita. Thanks again for suggesting it to me. Yep, yep. Finally some Myrnin refs. xD Though I'll admit most are Myrnin of the Museum. But I liked him wearing the green hoodie/sweater, so I've had him appear in the House with it several times.

For those of you who were wondering if I was working. I have no idea what I'm doing...

Yeah, so I'm actually working on two (three?) pictures. Whichever ends up better gets the avatar place. Here's a WIP for the one I started last night:

I wonder why people always seem a little surprised with how, when I first start a picture, it looks like lines and blobs, but when I actually shade and such it looks like a picture. Probably has something to do with me being a lineless artist by nature. Next:

I actually don't know anyone else who does lineless human/iods Next: and:

Almost done! Some fool desided to shade on the wrong layer, so now I have to be careful not to erase his hand:

Finished: Whether it will actually stay as my avatar for any length of time is another matter. Advice/helpful critiques anyone who is actually reading this?

I love the shading on your "welcome to wcrp" one! c: Assuming you scanned it, how did you get it to come out so cleanly? Like what resolution/brightness/contrast etc. did you have it set at? I've been wanting to upload some of my own art, but my scanner mauls the quality of it. :/

I have this super old computer that has this awesome program that can change the photo resolution. A lot of the new computers (or most computers, really) have something too. Lets see... Windows has that Photos thing pre-programmed in. You just go to Edit and enhance the photo. I just deepen the black and adjust the contrast until it looks as close to the original as possible.
