Aspiring cartoonist with an actual comic being worked on. I'll eventually post updates on my comics while showing off my own artwork if I feel brave enough to do so.

Forgot to show it, but I made this piece for a contest on ART street! It was summer themed and I made this based on the song "Anyone Can Play Guitar" by Radiohead!

Made Rako Muroka today! I'd say this character is formed through a binding contract between human and another type of being... So would that make this character a hybrid or homonculus? I'll also say it relates to the concept of soulbonding, as well as self-love and trust!

Out of any actual backgrounds I've made, I'm most impressed at myself for how I did the forest setting even for my first time! Bonus points on second image where I drew a shadow lurking on the top-left!

Finally did it for my comic's summary! Thanks a bunch for this, and I hope you don't mind if I do the same for my other comic projects as well!

Here's the template for the meme if you'd like to do one yourself!

To save myself from inactivity, I did a Character OC Inspiration Meme for my main character of my recent comic "High Rank Egotist", thanks to finding a template I found on here.
#OC #OCArt #OriginalCharacter #OCMeme

Top row are characters that greatly inspired the creation of the character, while mid-to-bottom row are ones that help develop the idea for said character. Learning the strengths and flaws for each character/person have helped to give me an idea for what the character of Ethan G. Ostaga could be like as development of the comic continues.

And it's not just about egotism, it's also about having the pride and self confidence that let them get what they want and make people recognize them without the need for force. Despite some of their egotistic nature, they have signs of their heart of gold nature and sudden influence that makes people want to admire them rather than admonish them.

Though when it comes to flaws (Most prevalent in the middle row), it comes from the inner struggle of their mental state that left them anxious when the odds are stacked against them. But even so, their reckless yet brave nature keeps them from breaking under pressure even all the way to the end.

Ithacon was pretty fun! Couldn't make it to day 2 unfortunately due to having slept late... That, and it's about to rain again. But to compensate, I did do some whiteboard drawings here!
