Wish I could get the game. Tried out the demo back in the summer when I was checkin' out the local Best Buy, and I had a blast with it. That said, I'm broke, so store demos are the only way I can play the game lmao

Was shown some drawings from an artist names "SleeepyBacon" of some nice primate folk and based this dood off one of 'em! The fit is inspired by a coworker's outfit.

Oh yeah, he IS the first guy I've drawn, isn't he? I should do more.

I finally got to draw a GURL after a few hectic days. It ain't much, but maybe you'll find her neat idk.

Maybe shoulda asked earlier, but anyone got any suggestions for anatomy refs for humans and anthros? I've just botched a monkey foot so bad it gave me generational embarrassment lmao. Been practicin' with bodies an such in my spare time. I wanna get better at those eventually.

Man, I meant for this to just be some practice doodles and it turned practically into a model sheet! But that's fine, I like drawing her. Idk if I'll go this detailed every time though, but I think it'll be helpful nonetheless!

Probably my last WIP before I go and line all the drawings. It was sorta visible on the first one, but I wanted to add a tail hole to the pants cuz I like ergonomics like that. I mentioned I wanted to make a model sheet earlier, and this is turning out pretty good, so maybe I'll use these doodles?

For now, no thank you. I think it's best I make one myself just so I can get the hang of the drawing process. I appreciate your offer, though!

Here's another WIP doodle of the girl! Really need to make a ref sheet soon. She morphs a little every drawing. My artist friend helped lots again, so many thanks to him! I also tried out a new marker brush for the colors! It's got the ID number: 1692034 if you wanna try it yourselves!

Wow. Uh, this got a lot more attention than I thought it would! Thanks, everyone!

This is just a WIP, but I've been chipping away at some Sketches practicing some boring things. Specifically, pants. I wanna draw those better. I draw really slow, but I wanted to share somethin' anyway, so I prettied up a sketch to share here. Anyhoo, that's all I've got for ya right now.

Oh yeah. I meant to post this alongside my last drawing, but this is the BG from my most recent doodle. It's pretty much the main reason it took me so long. On top o' that, I drew it *after* I did the gal and the lamp, so that was fun to work with. Got lots of practice though. Hope to do more!

That'd be awesome, thank you! I enjoy drawing this gal even tho I'm still pretty slow at it 😅

SwingAndAMiss @swingandamiss03.bsky.social · 18d

WOW! Thank you! I'm stunned, I wasn't expecting to catch your attention! Love your stuff!

Awe. Thank you! Means a lot, especially for this doodle.

SwingAndAMiss @swingandamiss03.bsky.social · 18d

Oh yeah, may as well use this as a banner. At least until I draw a dedicated one.

SwingAndAMiss @swingandamiss03.bsky.social · 18d

Whew, this took waaay longer than I thought it would! An artist friend of mine helped me with the BG, so huge thanks to him! I ain't good with those. Methinks this turned out good for a newbie like me, but MAN did it take forever.

Gon' do something I've never done before: A second #wip for the same drawing! Flats of the Monke girl and lamp are done, but I wanna do a background, so I've got lots more lines to do. And color too~ Shade as well I hope!

Had to stop cause I've got work in an hour. Enjoy this #wip
I think it'd be cool if I share my stuff when in progress sometimes. 'Yall up for that?
(Also I totally based the outfit off Regina George)

Soo uhh funny story with this one. This exact thing happened to me earlier, and it happened AFTER I'd sketched it. I can't finish this because of the pain, but I still wanna share this rough stuff.

Just got the newest version of Clip Studio Paint EX after being stuck on 2.0 for years! IDEK what even half of the new stuff does but uhh the new UI looks cool! My friend says a buncha stuff is from photoshop and he'll show me around later. Kinda neat!

Thanks much!

SwingAndAMiss @swingandamiss03.bsky.social · 29d

Yeah sure! Posing ain't my strong suit, so I appreciate the offer.

I personally liked it. Ran better than Jedi survivor, but I kept havin this issue where the map model would load before the collision mesh, so whenever I went somewhere new, I'd sometimes phase through the floor. Great game, but I wish I didn't keep having that problem.
