A sketchy a day keeps the depression at bay! (Most of the time.)
Hello everyone! You probably know me from another blog where I do whatever. Some know me for my writing, some like my art. But I also make a bunch of drawings I never show because they are unfinished or don't fit on my other blog.
So here ya go, a blog entirely dedicated to all the sketches and doodles I make, 'finished' or not.
Kind of a weird art request, but do you think we could see some art of what a human would look like from the eyes of an Amphibian (especially those who have never seen one before and might find them intimidating)?
Happy Halloween, enjoy the discomfort!
So we actually sat together with the team to brainstorm on the differences between Amphibians and humans (and even looked at other animals in the Amphibians' environment and how humans are different from even most common animals), and how to exaggerate them even more so it would have the same effect on a human.
The end result made even DLG6 (the artist) uncomfortable to a point. And now she's too nervous to add even more detail because she doesn't have enough skill for realism.
Now imagine this, with any type of hair, 11'2" (3,40m) tall, long thin limbs, six fingers, sandpaper-like greyscale skin with large patches of ichthyosis, with that being a common example of facial features. Intimidating, ugly and uncomfortable to look at, but not a face you can't get used to.
Art request: The medicated! trio when they accidentally swapped potions, and if they swapped potions again with Marcy as a frog, Sasha as a newt, and Anne as a toad.
Heh, both of the artists who draw for this blog decided to tackle this one! Hence why it took quite a while! But here's the first one, by @a-sketchy-a-day
3 local blorbos drank the wrong potions! so yeah, this one is the three in that exact moment that you requested! Now, for the second one, this was done by @ntf-03
This one has them rotating around. The middle is their normal forms and each one to either side has them in different positions and situations. Although none of those situations actually happened in Medicated, that was mostly done just to have some excuses for them to be wearing different clothes. Ya know, for variety! We hope that this makes up for how long it took to get to this request!
We want to put this image at the end of the actual chapter, but we need to upload it somewhere else first because that’s how Ao3 works. So yes, this means that it’s going to be up and ready to read in just a few minutes! Art by @a-sketchy-a-day, but under the “read more” thingy because you might be the kind of person who’d rather see it in the actual chapter first.
Hey can you guys do a drawing of Anne in her cool size-changeable cloak?
Or maybe one of her mid-transformation, as disturbing as that might look.
Just gonna tag @ntf-03 because one of those requests came from them.
Wow, ya'll really wanted this one! It just took us a while because it's so complicated! I mean, just LOOK at that embroidery! But now we've done it! So we're gonna give you guys two pictures of the finished drawing. The only difference is the lighting, so you guys get to pick which one you like best! So here, we have both forms so that you guys can see how it folds up. But Anne's hedgehog pelt was added to her human form because it's just awesome like that! Art by @a-sketchy-a-day
We hope you like this! And please let us know which lighting setting you like more. That'd be a really fun statistic to know!
This took waaaay longer than it had to. I mean I procrastinated the heck out of this one!
But anyways, remember how I said those 'first encounters' were a lot more stressful than their eventual 'meetings'? Well Anne realized a little late that these frogs could talk (luckily not too late), Sasha caused a 'teleporting pink snakes' panic, and Newtopia isn't really used to predators in the heart of their city, sweet as Marcy might be.
What about Heron Anne driving the Toad Tax Patrol away from the farm (I was going send you a sketch I did of Heron Anne scaring of the Toad Tax Patrol because I really like that au idea, but then I read the "Sketch suggestion" thing and I realized I'm not supposed to do that 😅. Also it is pretty bad, I'm better at rambling/infodumpig)
PD; Can someone please tell me which is the correct way to do this "I love your work so I did some fanart" thing?
*Slides over seductively* Fanart you say? Oh heck yeah I wanna see that! Should I open the submission thing? Or you can just post it yourself and than I reblog. But first, my end of the bargain.
Oh Anne sure is gonna chase these guys off. AFTER they give back the stuff they stole and Hop Pop.
Meanwhile Hop Pop is experiencing a trauma and a confusion, wrapped up neatly with a bow of nervous breakdown. (He didn't know yet.)
Also, to someone else who asked me about this AU: 'Netting'? Did you mean 'nesting'?
Are we allowed to request art? If so can I request that scene where Anne first became human and Sprig tried to "snap her out of it" when there really was no need?
Scary moment for Sprig, poor dude though he was gonna have to plead for his sister's sanity.
Will it show Lady Olivia is watching over Baby Marcy?
Marcy wasn't exactly a 'difficult' baby, but she certainly wanted to go everywhere and see everything and barely slept. And even though it took a lot energy to keep up, Olivia always indulged and encouraged her curiosity.
