Dawning Draws

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: {OC} Finally done!! It's super stiff now though... (Crystal)

Spoiler: {YGO/OC} Y'know when you just want to draw one of your OCs real quick cause you're bored and end up instead spending a few days trying to figure out how to digitally paint a background? Yeah that's what happened here.

Yeah anyway that's it I have not had time to do much else so small post this time.

Spoiler: I drew this about a month ago for a contest on ZD

Spoiler: (OC) Smoothed out the Crystal GIF from a couple posts ago

Spoiler: (PKMN) I can't believe I forgot the second horn and I don't think I saved the psd file so I can't even fix it {Mega Absol}

Spoiler: (YGO) I used to think Yuya's hairstyle was sorta normal. I no longer hold that misconception. {Yuya Sakaki}

Spoiler: {YGO} And now, we have a Yu-Gi-Oh character with a hairstyle that actually does make sense. {Sora}

Spoiler: (OC/YGO) Please never make me draw a chain link fence again

Spoiler: (OC/YGO) As they say, half-assing two things is equivalent to full-assing one. So half-assed background + half-assed colouring = equals full-assed drawing, right???

Spoiler: {YGO} Doodled Yuzu

Spoiler: {TOH} This is just my avatar but bigger (Luz)

Spoiler: {OC} Tried drawing Ivy in a different outfit cause I was bored

Spoiler: {OC} Don't think I've posted these three here before? Anyhow I did them in a chibi style cause I felt like it

Spoiler: {OC/Comic Strip} {CW: Language} This isn't funny if you don't know what they sound like but. (Blaze, Winter)

Spoiler: {OC/Comic Strip} I just wanted to mess around with trying to make action scenes happen. (Crystal, Xarlene)

Spoiler: {OC} I try to animate a thing

I'm well aware of the general inconsistencies in this, like the colour separating lines in her hair being missing in all but one frame and one frame is just weird in that it's missing one of the gems on her left shoulder and adder another circle to the front of the shirt. I'm actually not sure off the top of my head whether four or five is the right number for the shirt (it's five on the strap and four on the boots and it's times like now that I wished I used the same number consistently) because normally she has the strap covering it anyway. I think looking at a couple other ones its probably five though. The lines also wobble a lot and I do not know what to do about that.

Spoiler: {OC} A style experiment which I used Crystal for because who else am I supposed to use?

Spoiler: {OC} And because Crystal does not in fact exist in a vacuum, I did a thing with other characters too

Spoiler: {OC/YGO} I was gonna design cool monsters to be menacing behind them but it was not working so instead you get people just holding cards

Spoiler: {OC/YGO} There are over 150 layers in this drawing and I spent about 5 of them on the background. In other words, Dawning's continuing to be their background-hating self.

Spoiler: {TDP} I do not appear to have posted this for some reason and I wish to correct that mistake

Spoiler: {YGO} Drawing YGO chars seems to have become my default when I'm bored I guess

Spoiler: {Madoka Magica} (Sayaka)

Spoiler: {Dead End} (Courtney)

Spoiler: {OC} I just felt like conceptualizing what an older Crystal might look like

 

[DawningWinds]

Been a little while, so I have a buncha stuff to dump here.

Spoiler: This image is so dark that you can't see the half-assed background well enough to know it's half-assed

Spoiler: Attempting to work with a colour palette.

Spoiler: I'm not entirely confident I haven't already posted this one but I'll assume I haven't

Spoiler: I like this drawing but I probably could've defined some of their facial features more clearly

Spoiler: Another one I'm not sure if I've posted or not

Spoiler: Magical girls are just fun to design okay?

Spoiler: A couple designs I did for a Chilon's fan region project

And also a link to the thread of said project:

OUR new region!

Y'ello, I want to make my own region (Comunita), was my claim. But then i remind me: who reads this stuff realy? No front, but I want to make a new region with you guys! Gym Leaders, towns and maps and such stuff. New Pokemon: Yes, it would be cool but its way more elaborate as it should be...

Spoiler: {OC} Doodled Crystal because I wanted something quick and easy

Spoiler: I still need to practice actiony poses.

Spoiler: {YGO/OC} That is a bad dragon design but at least I made the person work?

Spoiler: Weird glowing mushrooms

Spoiler: {Gravity Falls} I made a gif of this but it was too big so have just one frame instead (Bill)

Spoiler: {Dead End} I considered doing a gif of this but I was lazy so I didn't (Pauline Phoenix)

Spoiler: Also here's a shark I guess

 

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: {YGO} More Zexal stuff

Spoiler: {OC} Yet another Crystal drawing

Spoiler: {OC} I try and figure out the design of a different character but have not yet succeeded

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: {YGO} I'm just gonna throw all the Zexal fanart I've been doing lately under one spoiler

Spoiler: {YGO} Backgrounds? What are those? (The entire main cast of 5Ds)

Spoiler: ...Oh! Random grids, that's what they are!

 

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: {PKMN} Drew myself an avatar that you've probably already seen but now you can see it bigger (Mega Absol)

Spoiler: I guess I really like sunsets right now

Spoiler: Did some experimenting with a more simplified style

 

[DawningWinds]

Been doing a some digital art as of late, so here's some stuff I guess. There's not as much as usual because I am horribly slow at making digital stuff but its something that none of you asked for.

Spoiler: {YGO} Did a drawing with inverted colours challenge thing (Izayoi Aki)

This looks so much better negative than positive to me so I figured I should post them both. I have not on clues how that shading manages to ne fine in some places and so incredibly backwards inothers.
Also I hate the lineart and I got I feel like way too many of the shapes entirely wrong, this was not my first attempt I've every made at this character that I completely screwed up and probably won't be that last.

Spoiler: Digitized that fairy from the last post

Spoiler: No, I don't think that hair makes much sense.

A lot of the shading on this I fell pretty happy with, and I don't entirely despise that hands which is rare for me so generally I feel pretty good about this. Not to fond of how the thing around the next turned out though.

 

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: ...Are her feet okay?

Spoiler: It's steampunk, see, you can tell by the random gears in the background.

Spoiler: Yes, this is the third drawing in a row where the character had pigtails. Sue me.

Spoiler: Hey, that guy looks familiar! Yeah, I think I've seen him in every media featuring Dwarves ever!

Spoiler: Do elves normally have horns? ...Or antlers? Whatever those are.

Spoiler: This was just a posing practice

Spoiler: DW attempts this whole R E A L I S M thing

Spoiler: {CW- Blood}

Spoiler: The Collector {TOH}

 

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: Pokemon Stuff

Spoiler: Not Pokemon Stuff

 

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: {POKEMON} Don't you love improbably friendly interactions? (Skitty+Azurill)

Spoiler: {POKEMON} I thiiink it can actually fly like that? (Dragonair)

It's eyes are kinda flat though.

Also. I apparently forgot to mention this ever, but if for whatever reason someone wants to request a drawing from me I'm open to doing them, feel free.

 

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: Ducklett, Ducklett, Gray Ducklett

 

[DawningWinds]

What's this? DW's updating their art thread in a semi reasonable timeframe? Impossible!

Spoiler: {ATLA} I am not happy with that pose (Azula)

Spoiler: {LOK} Unfinished outlines on a thing I have feeling is gonna turn out okay (Korra)

Spoiler: {Original} She's actually supposed to be left-handed whoops drew that wrong (Mayumi)

Spoiler: Other Stuff

 

[DawningWinds]

I'll hopefully have some ofther stuff later, but for now, enjoy a few things I've had to do for my graphic design class.

Spoiler: {CLASS} Victorian Style Product Packaging

Spoiler: {CLASS} Art Deco (I think) Billboard Design

Please ignore the eraser remnants that I forgot to clean off.

Spoiler: {CLASS} One Half Of A Techniques Project

 

[DawningWinds]

So Inktober died this year after two days for me. I'll do it next year, though. (Note: I say this every year)
Anyhow, have another lump of stuff that I procrastinated way too long on posting. No in-spoiler commentary at this moment because its early in the morning but I might edit some in later. (Also, notice the cool new labels on the spoiler tags! You'll never be confused about what's inside again, all while dealing with my lame jokes which can't legally be classified as jokes half the time..)

Spoiler: {POKÉMON} Proof that we need more animal companion stories starring trees. (Phantump)

Spoiler: {ORIGINAL} And here I said three designs would be a lot of work... (Ivy)

Spoiler: {ORIGINAL} ...Oh, wait, no, I did that to procrastinate on this. (Crystal)

Spoiler: Some Radom Doodles

 

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: Inktober Days 1-2

Neither of these really look right but. I've never done Inktober before so idk what I'm doing, I'll probably get a little bit better as the month goes on.

Spoiler: Old Characters Who I'm Planning to Redesign

I wanted to line up previous looks of withese characters before I started seriously working on a redesign, because unlike the last character I redesigned, both of these two have older designs diverged from the others pretty significantly. (The last char had a few different designs, but most of them were pretty similar to each other and none incorporated the fire theme at all.) These two have the same major isssue of not really showing their respective themes in their actual designs (gems and plants).
For the first character the three designs I tend to treated as how she looks at different points in time, which is a huge pain if I stick with that. (Though merging these designs would also be a pain and there are things I like from them all...)
For the second character the two designs are most definitely not treated that way which is convenient because I don't really like her second design.

Spoiler: Old Character Who I Already Redesigned

The red highlights in the hair were mostly added on a whim here, but those are also probably one of my favorite parts of this new design. Not sure if red for the pants was the right move. Also thinking I should maybe mess around with the jacket's design some more? It's okay right now but I feel like it could be better. And I think I should probably make the boots and jacket the same colour... my first instinct is make both black because they've always both been black but I do like the brown on the boots too... which I realize you can't see well cause lighting.
I like the top, I think that's probably pretty set in stone.

Spoiler: Gothorita. Obligatory Since It's October and It's Been Forever Since Last Time I Posted A Gothorita Drawing
