Okay. Okay Update Time On This. Some Things. Heads Up This Is Just Kind Of Me Rambling/noting Down My

say goodbye to your precious blender sphere (evil mysterious cackling)

Shaded version! And a couple revamped colours. PS. I really enjoy re-using other parts of the palette to do the shading....

Some more info, too — his name is Palace and he's a detective/investigator type guy running around doing crazy stuff with his wife and new best friend.

Cube guy.... music/band teacher helped figuring out this guy's colours.

I apologize if the whole LIMBS thing is hard to visually understand..

My current goal with my artstyle is to get more cartoony and stylized with my characters...

More about all this below!

For a while I had been strictly staying to attempts at realistic stuff. Not full-on realism, but as good as I could get it.

It was fun, but hard to do, and I was always struggling with some feature. And I never really let myself do cartoony stuff because I had this mindset that if I started doing that, I'd "lose my progress" on all the realistic skill.

Then for art class we had a unit on cartoon characters. It put me out of my comfort zone, but I was actually having WAY more fun with these characters and CONSTANTLY creating these little cartoon designs where I could, like, instantly TELL exactly who they were.

Not to say realism is boring, not at all, just that I think it's important to find which style is, personally, the most enjoyable to draw with. And as someone who is really into expressiveness and character design, I think something more stylized and exaggerated will be a good direction for me. It's already proven to be something I thoroughly enjoy...

you ever do a little design/concept doodle and then you can't shake the feeling that they look incredibly familiar, but you have no idea what from. yeah that's me right now

Ok change of plans he'll look like this now. Just gotta clean up the colours + shapes and such and boom

More character concept

Will probably make the shirt colour more saturated + make the purple darker.

This is part of a group of characters I'm making for a webcomic idea I might make at some point! Though it will require more planning and probably better dedication skills than I currently have.

Hm

I don't usually fandompost here but I just binge-readed TPOH these past few days (or what there currently is of it) after hearing about it from some posts I seen

My GOD. Currently going insane. In a good way

Jared's friend has proven difficult to figure out a palette for.

Jared now has a friend.
