[HEY, LOOK, COMICS!] + [I'M A PROFESSIONAL??!] + [Some Stuff I've Been Meaning to Post]

in #painting7 years ago

I was talking with @deimus about a doodle comic I did recently, where they mentioned changing it up with the panel layout.

To which I was just like, bro it's a doodle comic, if I was gonna bother with presentation, I'd be all like, makin' it sleek and stylin' all manga-style flsjlfjljsljfl

And so I decided to do just that for the sake of because I can LMAO

Honestly, I was originally going to just leave it as a sketch, but I'm considering maybe doing comics for the @steemgigs thing, so I wanted to have something nice to show off for that? Not totally sure if I'm going to do it or not, but I do have another comic I'm planning to do, that was suggested by a friend on deviantART.

Also, I had to change the dialogue some so I could make the panel layout flow better, and not be so text-heavy... but then it was too sappy, and didn't work as a gag comic, which I was kinda blegh about.
So I just ditched the dialogue for the finished version LOL

I forgot that my self-insert wears gloves until I was shading it. Ignore the fact that they totally shouldn't be able to use a phone while wearing gloves. It's um. Their anime super power.

Or something.

Yeah...

LOL XD

I wonder, since this thing is so sappy, maybe I should make it an entry for the art jam thing I'm trying to do.
Which like almost nobody seems interested in.

Seriously that thing has like 9 views, I thought an art jam would be fun?? But maybe people would prefer it if it was a contest or something.
I personally kinda find contests stressful, and I thought it would be a nice way to meet new creative-type people?

Idk.

If I don't get many people on board after a few weeks, I may change the name to "Steemit Weekly Theme" or "Weekly Theme Challenge" or something, idk.

Or maybe I should just ditch it altogether and go back to taking requests, LMAO

Oh yeah, that's a thing, by the way. I was actually getting requests/suggestions from people on deviantART about stuff I should make on here, because I was going to do speed paints...
But my laptop fritzed out and the computer I'm using now lags really bad when I use recording software.

But yeah, here's a few things I did for that recently:
Pro-tip: clicking on the image will take you to the deviantART page where it's posted

This first one was a birthday request I did for my friend sekkechi (they're @solarmanti here on Steemit), which is their Final Fantasy OC interacting with Genesis from Crisis Core.
You'll Grow Into It - Request for sekkechi!

This next one was suggested by my friend Gamma-sama from deviantART, which is Roll.EXE from the Mega Man Battle Network series.
I was wanting to do linearts at the time, so that's why it's not colored or anything. I actually have something fun in mind for the background I'd like to do with this piece if I can ever get around to it LOL

Roll EXE - Lineart

Aaaand then there's this cute Digimon OC that was requested by Prismblack91! Who's. Kinda this random person on deviantART I've barely spoken to lol.
They have the CUTEST Digimon OCs tho LOLOLOLOLOL~

Aaaand in other news, this is the thing I was actually originally had scheduled to post today, but it didn't make any sense anymore, because I've started feeling better and am probably going to post cool anime shit or something??? So??
But I wanted to go ahead and post it because I found it amusing and I gotta put it somewhere, so??? LOL

Title: The Real Reason I'm Still Drawing Toons...

As opposed to, say, drawing super amazing anime shit to show off.

The Real Reason.png

Drawing is surprisingly difficult when you're sick...


//also that awkward moment when you schedule stuff in advance, so then you realize by the time this comes out it's probably gonna be self-contradictory, but you're honestly kinda too lazy to care
//also-also, to be clear: my laptop is busted, but I'm still able to draw on another computer that's kinda shared between a few people, but it acts funny sometimes, so I don't like to try to over-tax it with too much stuff;;;;
I miss my laptop tho oeL

ANYWAY, THIS POST IS WAY TOO FRIGGIN LONG?? SO I'MMA STOP WRITING NOW LMAO.

But lemmie know what you guys think about the pictures and such, ynow? :'P

Sort:  

wow! awesome drawing!
i also love manga!
please continue posting your art works
upvoted!
thank you

Thank you! :'D
I'll keep working on my art, and try to post better stuff.
Only problem is, I have too many things I want to work on? x'D

I'm not the most organized person... but I'm working on it LOL

Oh wow, these are really good! How long have you been drawing your own comics? You really have a talent for it - you should definitely keep going with it, or maybe even creating your own site to feature your work! Really looking forward to seeing more posts from you!

Followed!!!!

Good work man keep it up

Uhmmm... I mean, I've been drawing in general since. Like forever LOL.
First started getting into drawing comics when I was in Jr. High after falling in love with the Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle manga.

Ahahahaaha, yeah I have no intention of making my own website LMAO. No way I'm gonna keep up with hosting a server or whatever. Closest thing I have is a Tumblr page that I nearly killed myself trying to program the HTML for! XD

I'm glad you like my drawings, though :') I wanted to be a professional comic artist when I grew up, so I spent a long time learning to draw lol.
Though now that I'm an adult, I have no idea what the heck I'm doing with my life, hahahaha

Okay, now I'm really impressed. Great work!
