Dawning Draws

[DawningWinds]

Spoiler: {YGO} Found an outfit scrolling through Pinterest I liked so I drew (Rio)

Spoiler: {YGO/OC}

Spoiler: {Dead End} I did not draw this background fyi, I just added an image from the show to my drawing of the characters because I am lazy (Norma, Barney, Courtney, Pugsley)

Also potentially useless info but I've gone through and threadmarked like half the art posts in this thread, I will hopefully do the other half later.

Spoiler: {YGO} Today, all the bracelet girls except the one who actively participates in the plot (Ruri Kurosaki, Rin, Yuzu)

(In case you can't tell, card not hand drawn. Copied an image of it, clipped it to my own shape, and made it green for the sake of monochrome)

Spoiler: {YGO} I did a joke. By which I mean someone on Tumblr did a joke and I drew it. (Yuya Sakaki, Yuto)

Spoiler: {OC} And now, your semi-regularly scheduled "Dawning not having the faintest idea what to do with their style" (Crystal, Ivy)

Spoiler: Dragging over stuff from Blanc's Challenge Thread

Aaand back again. I really oughta update more regularly.
Anyhow, today's lump of drawings!

Spoiler: Now In Colour!

The first one's not bad. Not incredible, but not bad.
I think with the second one, I should've kept more solid colours than I did. It's it's not as bad in the photo since the lighting makes everything really dull, but I think there's a bit more of an issue with the many many color-fades in better lighting.

Spoiler: I think this took me, like, ten minutes. If that.

Spoiler: See badges.

This was my avatar awhile ago. The lines are shaky in some spots. Some of the colours are off. I think those are my only particular issues with this one.

Spoiler: (in Hooty voice) Some trainer. Hoothoot.

Not shaded. Legs are pretty wonky. Hoothoot looks surprisingly okay.

Spoiler: Not in colour

The hair on the top of the head doesn't really match with the hair hanging below, and that combined with their headband makes it really easiy to mistake for a hat which bugs me. Not sure how I feel about the goggles hanging around the neck- I wonder if maybe it'd have gone vetter had I dropped the headband and put the gogggles on their head instead. Some of the lines are a bit messy as usual mostly on the jacket I think. Everything else is pretty okay.

Spoiler: Feat. Pencil marks

This is a redesign of an old character. They've always been supposed to have a fire theme but there's basically never been a version where you could actually tell. (Unfortunately don't have any older versions on hand for comparison)
I wasn't really focused on making the drawing super nice, just getting the design how I want it... not sure if this is quite what I was hoping for but is definitely closer.
Gonna probably clean up the pencil marks and color later on.

Sooo, the near future turned out to be two months later. Here we have artwork from various points in the last year.

Spoiler: Clay zombie. Oh. Not both. You pick which it is.

I made this for a class a few months ago. There's a digital version on my laptop that I'l maaybe post later. It's a bit messy, but I made it to trace in Illustrator, so I didn't exactly need it to be perfect because it got fixed up a bit in Illustrator.
I thiiink it was supposed to be a clay creature but everyone who's seen it says it looked like a zombie.

Spoiler: Dragon. From June last year maybe?

I don't know exactly when I made this, my best guess is early last sumer since the outlines are in pencil but I haven't posted it here. As much as I like dragons I don't draw them much, so I've never had much sense of their anatomy. I think the wings on this one are probably a bit too small and the head's too big (though that was a thing in like... 99% of everything I drew at that time and I think this one probably actually has it a little less), among other issues.

Spoiler: Have I ever mentioned that I hate making backgrounds? No? Well I do.

Both of these were for class, in like September.
The first one was to practice using paint techniques with one colour group. I do want to practice painting some more, but right now I have six total acrylic paints and trying to make a viable purple was not something I enjoyed. I hate how the purple looks, it just seems super murky...
The second was to practice two point perspective. I don't know what I did, but it feels really flat, even for something drawn on paper. And thast wrench sign on the on building is really asymmetrical.

Spoiler: A character I haven't drawn in a while

An older version of the character, for comparison:

I do think in some places went a little too far with making it more detailed to the point that it just got messy. I also think I'll probably drop the gloves in any future versions of her character, I don't like them. Not sure how I feel about the original colour scheme. Not sure what I'd do instead. A lot of lines don't connect- I'll probably fix those when I colour.
My pen was also kinda dying when I made this which was a huge pain.

Spoiler: Generic anime person in a hoodie

Not quite sure when this from. Mid/late last summer maybe? I guess I got sick of blank backgrounds but doing an actual background seemed like too much work, so I just did... that.

 

[DawningWinds]

Oh wow I've left this alone for a while.

Got a few things to drop here, will hopefully be back with more of my recent and somewhat recent artwork in the near future.

Spoiler: An Eevee from Sketch the Above

This one's from sketch the above. I did it little while ago, and pretty happy with it for the most part. The tail and ears are a bit weird and the shading's off though.

Spoiler: A Redraw of a Really Old Thing, Ft The Really Old Thing And Some Brush Tip Markers on Ther Other Side of The Paper

I changed the outfit a little because it didn't make a whole lot of sense, and the general proportions because somewhat more recent drawings of what I believe is the same character have had proportions more similar to that + all my super old characters had nearly exact same appearance except hair and clothes. The hair flows more nicely now (same with the scarf), and the pose works a little better. I kept the general roundness of the face because I liked it, and again more recent drawings of probably-the-same-character did as well. I couldn't tell if she was supposed to have gloves or not so I went with she didn't to save myself the effort. The scepter hand on the new one bugs me a bit, and the colouring's a bit ehh but that's because I was experimenting with brush tip markers for the first time (the original new drawing was done on the other side of the paper, but I found it looked better when I flipped it).

Spoiler

This was kinda just a quick lil doodle I did. Not really too fussed about anything.

Spoiler: Sheep

...And this is from the banned game. Someone said that they wanted sheep, so I drew a Mareep and said they were banned for making me draw this. But it didn't turn out badly, so I'm rather glad I drew the Mareep.
Almost wish I'd gone for Wooloo, though.
Well, a sheep is a sheep, right?

Spoiler: Purrloin

I made this doodle when resetting the staff counting thread. One of the ears is a bit odd, but otherwise, it came out alright.

Spoiler: Feebas is Unimpressed

This is from Sketch the Above. Actually looks pretty much the same in monochrome.
