So @riiser.bsky.social made a formal challenge to artists to draw their OC's in this Hoodie. So here's Jessie in said Hoodie. #OCsky #ArtChallenge #furryart

youtu.be/78bqEaUlOxE With the boom of AI, it was only a matter of time someone made a comic made with AI... And boy is it bad.

Guess it has been a while since I gave you guys a progress image! Hair still escapes me (Which I know is unfortunately comedic)

Today is the day where I will watch and live react to the first ever review of my comic. And it's a special one: made by @riiser.bsky.social and you can watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMV2... I will start at 8PM on my Twitch and Youtube and see... 👀

EC! got some love (and jabs) on the newest episode of the Webcomic Reliefs "Strippin'" episode! Go give it a watch & send some love Riisers way— dude deserves it :3 #Webcomic #Review #TheWebComicRelief #WCR #EpicChaosWebcomic #NeverTooLate #UBossDailies

youtu.be/qMV2wBSvCfY It's time to highlight some webcomics from the WCR community babyyyy!

Tried something different

Now that my sketchbook is filled out, I wanted to try my hands on digital art! So boom, first proper digital art piece!

Please clap, I feel like I cooked here

I don't even know what I was going for here, I just wanted to do something to keep my hands from not forgetting again

First drawing after two weeks of everything being absolutely terrible. Here is to hoping this will mark a beginning of improvement

📢EC! IS COMING BACK!📢 Help spread the word with some fan art :D

We are doing folds today!

Tried drawing grown ass ladies with a little extra meat on their bones! (I'm well aware the anatomy is F**KED!)

Yesterday I practiced capes!

Anatomy is probably a little wonky but I just wanted an excuse to play around with my ink pen!

#update Hello everyone. In case you forgot, I am TheBONSAI, and I make sci fi fantasy artwork. I think a little bit of explaining is in order for my absence for...all of 2024, so read this thread if you like the cliffnotes of that, and how things will go forward.

I swear, I don't have a thing for feet, I am just following the tutorials I am being given!

Tired and arms messed up from lifting, so freestyled a weird knight girl?

That's a crazy amount of improvement from just a month! Congrats!

Work from the weekend!

Working on the back!

Continuing work on faces and heads! Today: Sadness!

I followed an absolute dogshit tutorial on how to make heads at any angle and while I feel I learned a lot, the end product is garbage!

"RON?! I GOT A DOUBLE LATTE FOR A RON?"

youtu.be/5HaNDG8r3Us Y'all have been asking for it! Get yourself nice and cozy, put this shit on in the background and just ride the wave of the sillyness that is the Las Lindas Suicidal Drinking Game!

So I took the plunge and did my first drawing without a tutorial. Could be worse, could absolutely also be better!

Been a productive day with drawing muscles, high angle perspective and the ever elusive hands

Besides uploading the newest video I have also been busy arting!

LQRP: Anyways— watch the video. "Look Back" is an excellent manga, & having it examined & expanded on by @riiser.bsky.social made it even more impactful. Every creative who has moments of doubt or stagnation should watch it. m.youtube.com/watch?v=oCrP...

youtu.be/oCrPlzMCASk The video is now live for everyone to enjoy! This is my ode to all you amazing artists and authors, or whatever else you may be as long as you have the heart for creating. Please keep drawing. And please... Look Back

‼️NEW SHOW AND TELL‼️ Releasing tomorrow! Patreons get it a day early!

Bro Hayakain knew had this down to a science! This is super hard to do!

I swear the lewdness is absolutely necessary for the learning process! Still practicing giving bodies "mass" as well as looking into how cloth work and doesn't work

Slightly NSFW drawings this time! 🔞 Followed some tutorials by @mikeymegamega.bsky.social and this dude somehow manages to teach you insane fundamentals in incredibly short time! Really happy with how these turned out!

I need to make a new intro comic for my patreon/ko-fi accounts. Until then, here is my old ones, & links to my Patreon & Ko-fi 💵 patreon.com/artbymelissam ☕️ ko-fi.com/artbymelissam

I tried making a hot goth GF to break in my new mechanical pencils

Livestream tonight!! Come watch me work on comic pages :D

The coil/spiral technique is better explained in this YouTube video www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJWL...

I explain things better with pictures, so I just started doing stuff until I had a page of tips I would have loved to have known as a newb artist. None of these are hard or fast "rules", just guides that have served me well over my years doing drawing.

This is after just one day of following his two tutorials on how to draw heads.

Now that I am back at drawing, I cannot stress enough how good @whytmanga.bsky.social and his How to Draw series is for total beginners! youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Here's some I use: -Eyebrows line up w/ the top of the ears, & the nose lines up w/ the bottom of the ears. -elbows line up w/ the belly button, wrists w/ groin. -you can create the proper space between eyes by "adding a 3rd eye" 👁️👁️👁️ I've got more I'll add later 🙃

Do you have any tips for learning art that you wish you had known sooner? Like "Ears needs to be here in relation to the eyes" or "The distance between X is always as the same as Y" or something like that.

New art - Wanted to try following a different reference

... The fuck does this even mean?

Saw this was a thing, so screw it, let's see how it goes!

My new year resolution is to be able to make art that makes people go "Wait, that webcomic reviewer guy made that?" And it is slow for now but I hope I can do it!
