Studying character design with Aaron Blaise: day 3

Today's topic was "eyes". After the lesson, I realized that I need to keep up with what Aaron draws, and for that I need to practice what I learned from the first lesson on expressions.

LOVE my own notes so far😭

I'm typically not a fan of art study materials (maybe that's why I progress so slowly) but this feels great

The first lesson was about the stuff I should do before drawing the characters. I did do this with my OCs but it still feels like I'm about to redesign them again🤪
I've got Aaron Blaise's "Character design" course. The intro lesson had a 3min video, which looked quite easy and quick enough to check out before going to bed.

However, there're also 5+GB of bonus material under the video. I'm excited and scared at the same time.

I wanted to make a Christmas piece but this rather looks like a 2-year-recap to me-- I wonder if I should start another Christmas-themed illustration.

I made a YCH piece for vgen after all. Idk, I usually don't draw stuff for such events, especially with branded characters, but this particular platform hosts events that are actually cute and hard to skip.

I made a poster to release some frustration. Ever since I stopped being chatty people assume I'm shy around them. Meanwhile, I'm just enjoying the quiet.

I've suddenly recalled how proud my mom was when she saw me taking a book and sitting aside from the other kids to enjoy it in kindergarten.

The thing is, I also remember me sitting there, looking at the pages, and just hoping nobody would interact with me.

Man, sketches in my sketchbook sure got more interesting when I stopped thinking that I'm gonna upload everything I draw.

Yesterday I was on my way home when I saw a guy I wanted to draw so much that I actually asked for his contact. Felt risky, but I might do that again.

Here's a timelapse. It took me too many initial pose ideas to not post it here as well.

FINALLY. Oh man, I'm so proud of this. I see some mistakes but it still looks cooler than other #meettheartist pieces I've made.

I'm not proud of whatever I've made for "meet the artist" meme so far. BUT THIS TIME IS GONNA BE DIFFERENT😤

Dumbledore's lines in Korean sound as if he was a Joseon man.

Oh, but I did draw the 9th day: child -> old and vice versa

Added some characters to hubby'd letters. A tad tired of drawing my characters daily for now.
