the long awaited (by me i didn’t like the old one) four swords leo redeisgn :) this is a bit later when he’s more healed cause i ddint wanna draw the crutches lmao
gonna ramble abt my thought process under the cut if people are interested
first idea when redesigning was to incorporate his canon gear into it cause he DOES still have that.
he put pieces of fabric with his brother’s colors on hi belt thing as a reminder of home. in a similar vein, he wears his mask around his wrist as a bracelet cause he doesn’t like wearing it when his brothers aren’t around to match w him
for the actual clothes, i wanted to try to imitate the style of clothes in neo edo? unsure of how successful i was with that. i thought he’d choose smth similar to the robe he wears in lair games cause this guy is fighting for ANY sense of familiarity. he then tried to sew on the hamato symbol. being a medic, the stitches themself r pretty good but the symbol is a little fucked cause he’s never done anything like that. it’s the thought that counts!

Hey remember me?
Lol but uh can you show us your drawing process?-
Also sorry for about being annoying
Yep yep ofc I remember u teehee
and sure! I can show u, full w/ images and explanations
here's the finished thingy if u can't be bothered reading all that shi
Tumblr media
First I just start with a simple circle with guidelines for the face
Tumblr media
then I actually add the face, almost always with the head shape and hair (if the character I'm drawing has any, since I'm drawing Mugman, I don't need to add any hair)
Tumblr media
after that I draw in smth like a rectangle, except it's kinda not a rectangle? I forgot the word help
w/ that I put an oval where the closest shoulder is, for some reason I only do one tho which is kinda weird
Tumblr media
I just go straight to clothes at that point, add the arms after since they're less important than the rest of the image lmao /j
Tumblr media
most the time I add abt 3 or 4 separate layers for the sketch so I can modify certain parts w/out ruining the rest of it or making it too messy
once I'm done w the sketch I turn the opacity of it down like, real real low, inbetween like, 10%-20% so I can see what I'm doin with the lineart (side note, linearts usually a really dark colour but almost NEVER black)
Tumblr media
Once linearts done I add another layer and colour w a lil tool called the lasso fill, it makes colouring drawings like 10 times faster and way more enjoyable for me
Tumblr media Tumblr media
after dat shi, depending on if it's a complete drawing or not, I make a new layer and shade it w the same colour I used for the lineart
sometimes tho I make it lighter so it doesn't look dry or soulless n stuff, it rlly depends on what vibe you're going with ur drawing tho
for highlights I make another layer and put it over the lineart layer. usually I'd use a yellow but light blue looks better w Mugman
Tumblr media
Lastly I just give it some kind of background thing and I'm done teehee, thanks for readin this shi lmao

1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 16, 17, 18
wow that's a lot lol! thanks :3 [i already awnsered 1, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 for other asks so im leaving those out]
2. 5 favourites of your own work?
these r my 5 favorite digital peices ive done semi-recently (like, last 6 months)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
unfortunately i don't have enough pictures of my traditional work on hand 2 rlly do this for those 😔
7. Favourite works of all time excluding your own?
idk that is a VERY challenging question to awnser lol !! there's so much art in this world yknow!!!
16. What’s the most daunting part of your process? Ex, planning, sketching, lineart, rendering etc
COLORING i hate coloring things in!!! after that is line art bc even tho i enjoy it, it takes me EONS. like UNBELIEVABLY long!! planning larger projects can be pretty intimidating too tho
17. What inspires you?
nature mostly :] like fungi and plants ! i like to draw outdoors esp in the woods (altho rn it's too snowy to do that) im lucky to live in a place that gives me lots of access to nature . funnily tho this probably isn't all that apparent in my art on my blog, bc i almost soley post my digital work (mainly due to lack of consistent access to a scanner) which is mostly fan art LOL
18. Do you have any larger projects you’d like to pursue? Like comics, shortfilm, a series etc?
nothing as big as that but im currently working on making 2 plushies + multiple small sculptures w clay :]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the plushies r sylveon frm pokemon + a moth. the reason 4 the obvious stitching on parts is bc i made an initial layer w felt where i just focused on getting the shape i wanted & not making it look nice. now im adding the 2nd layer, which is faux fur fabric so as to make them FLUFFY !

Hellooo! I just wanna say that your art makes me smile so much!! And i love your content with venti x oc TvT. If its too much trouble would you be willing to give some tips on drawing and how you do color for an aspiring artist. I cant wait to see more of your works!!
thank you so much, im glad my works that i do for fun make you smile! especially my venlune works, which i didnt expect would get attention ;w;
i dont consider myself a very skilled artist yet, and im also not an art student, but im willing to give some (personal) tips i learned along the journey i went through in making art!
(assuming anon means art in general not comics)
1. (this is obvious but some actually dont do this, ok tbh even i dont because im lazy lol) watch tutorials from the internet, like youtube. there are a lot of videos available there from pro artists!
2. practice anatomy first, or linearting. you can start learning more about rendering later. if you want to focus more on making pretty but simple art, then you should study how to draw anatomy decently first, then you can just use some flat colors if youre not confident yet or still practicing your rendering! because from what i observed from my past artworks, detailed rendering doesnt do much if the anatomy and lineart aren't done well TT (anatomy doesnt have to be accurate by the way, as long as it looks aesthetically pleasing to the eyes youre good! imo at least)
3. steal some processes from other artists, then mix it with your own. it helps in experimenting and building your own style that you find comfortable to do! but you dont really have to find a specific style, you can draw inconsistently, if that's what makes you enjoy art! dont pressure yourself in finding a style, take your time! it even took me almost a decade to find mine (yes i just found a style im satisfied with recently that i can actually make consistently TT)
4. for rendering, im not confident in giving tips regarding it yet, because im still struggling with lighting and such. but im willing to share my process next time with images! just ask again if youre interested ^^
5. the most important part, have fun with the process! this sounds cliche, but to me this is what my goal is currently. i used to enjoy making them so much when i started, so im doing my best to feel happy with the process again, not only focusing on the result! also i believe in [happy process = good result] hehe
my bad im not good with words and im currently sick so i hope what i said is still understandable >w<;;
goodluck with your art journey, anon! <3

FINALLY! THE ART PROCESS (Part Two)
Continuation of Art Process below!
Step Five: Shading
Tumblr media
So around this time it was almost 1 AM in the morning and I was forced to go bed at that point...
I would say after I woke up early in the morning (8 AM on Sunday), I continued for approximately 4 hours. 
I remember being panicky since I usually upload Sundays, but thanks to losing an extra 4 hours (4AM on a Sunday night), I was extremely behind in finishing the album cover. 
(But thanks to you guys and the support, I felt a little less pressure)
Also, I changed the flower’s coloring since it looked more like a sunflower than a Gerbera. I could’ve changed it for Kalim since a sunflower’s meaning is happiness, adoration, and loyalty - but the ‘loyalty’ wasn’t working out for me.
Furthermore, by the time I did that I already based the WHOLE album on the color scheme of orange. So that wasn’t even an option. 
Step Five: Background + Highlights
Tumblr media
I REALLY LOVED THIS PROCESS NOT GONNA LIE
Usually I would hate the lineart as it looks before the adding multiple layers - but to me it looks SO much better! It was tempting to put THIS as the cover! 
Though, I tend to have a certain style in the album, so I had to keep the same focus. 
I really wanted to mostly highlight them n a i l s , the Gerbera, and his eyes. But now that I look at the final product, I think I lost that focus in the end (in terms of his nails). *cries*
Also, I would say Step 4 and Step 5 is his color scheme - Step 4 being the base, and Step 5 the shading to give them  g  l  o  w  s .
This one took around Sunday night (estimation of 6PM - 10 PM), and thanks to homework being just tests - I secured my time doing this instead.
At this point, I felt I was basically looping Mystique + [insert 3rd song in the Scarabia Trilogy] like CRAZY. I repeated that song the whole way through just like I did with Lupine and Rosaceae. 
I also enjoyed the shine of that Gerbera - I felt like a proud mom -
Just to let you know btw the leaves are apart of Kalim’s design, not just for show.
Step Six: Final Background + Highlights
Tumblr media
When I finalized it a little more...this was Monday night when I was finishing this up 5 PM - 6:40 PM. I was really excited to finish this piece - by announcing that Mystique was about to come out!
But around 6:40 I had to discontinue due to my daily life...but other than that I was generally pleased.
Though, I think that I fell short in the process. Some areas that were supposed to be highlighted (such as the feathers, bandana, and leaves) were not highlighted properly. 
Though, I’m glad that the main focus was still there in the whole piece - his eyes and the flower (which also gives focus on his face). So I’m satisfied.
Step Seven: Orange + Red Lineart
Tumblr media
Now for this I did the following (to achieve that look above):
Copy and paste the lineart on another layer (from now on I’ll call that pasted Lineart #2.)
Lineart #2 is selected, and colored in in a different color (in red)
Shift the lineart to a certain side (which is more of the right)
Add Lineart #3 (which repeats #1 - #3), which was colored in orange.
I was going add hints of green and blue - but I didn’t like how the colors made Kalim look...so I left orange and red. 
Plus, red is apart of his original color scheme + the flower’s orange so it gave me more of a reason to keep that focus. 
Gosh dangit, it’s colour not color Tumblr-
I did this once I arrived home and I was absolutely elated! I wanted to post it as soon as possible, but I wanted to be more professional in terms of announcements and all that, which sends us to Tuesday. 
I scheduled it Monday night/Tuesday morning (4 AM) at 4 P M so I can get you reactions live and be active for questions and responses but THAT didn’t happen- 
Step Eight: Title -> Final Piece!
Tumblr media
Wow! You made it this far! That was a lot to read (lol).
Feel free to send in requests about the art process btw! This includes the plot, the characters - anything! I will happily answer ASAP :)))))))))))))
I feel like I should do this for ??? [ Insert 2nd song of Scarabia Trilogy], but this WILL delay the song as well (especially the lyric analysis that I will and must do). 
But luckily, I’m physically out of school on Friday so it wholeheartedly depends on how much I get done in the weekend...
I must admit - taking the time to do Kalim in normal hours felt pretty good unlike Lupine and Rosaceae. That doesn’t mean I love them less though-
Anyways. You know the drill! 
Thank you for supporting the fan made music and art of Twisted Wonderland and Date A Live content.

Request Box- 2nd batch
And here we have the second batch of my Request Box!! :D With this all of them are done. Info about each of them under the cut:
1- Captain Harlock, from the series with same name (requested by my mom) So many details!! And on top of it this one came even tinier than the others xD I'm pretty happy with how it came out, however ^^ 2- Vinisha (OC requested by Metanaito-kyou over dA) This OC is so cuuute!! >w< I really enjoyed working on this one, specially with the gradients (man I'm loving gradients). I usually don't use much pink in my drawings, so it has also been a great chance to practice that! Aah, but seriously, so cuute <3 3- Kuria, Damian and Hiro (OCs requested by FlareZenyu over dA) Love those guys' style! There was a lot of black to work with, so I took the chance to experiment with undertones (not sure how well that went xD). I hope their posing looks right as well, as I was not sure about how to pose them. 4- Liesalotte (OC requested by Solidus-Skully over dA) This character's so cool! Must go and read about her. Anyway, it was so fun to get to play with the colours and the hat gradient! Did my best to keep the details even with the tiny chibi, hope it looks right :3 5-Sesshomaru, from Inuyasha (requested by Maalar99 over dA) I want to kill you by requesting this character with all his details xD I ended up enjoying the colouring tho (sketching and lineart were a pain to get right). Anyway, hope you like how your love is looking. 6- Kagura, from Inuyasha (requested by Maalar99 over dA) I don't really have anything to say about this except she also had some details to her and that I gave up some of them. Man, I don't remember almost anything about this character, it's been so long since I last watched the anime... Anyway, here she is! 7- Kratos, from God of War (requested by L7R over dA) Woo, man! It took some time to colour this and the whole time I only half-knew what I was doing with the metallic parts. I think it came out decently well... I hope. Tried to make him look more angry and agressive, but it's difficult to make a chibi look anything other than cute xD 8- D'gafjy (OC requested by MudFae over dA) I wasn't super inspired with this one TwT I tried to keep in mind what you told me about her when I was drawing it, but I don't know if I got everything right. I hope it looks good enough tho?

"What's Up You Guys It's Me, Bdenbrough!" - Totally An Art Channel
Tumblr media
Summary: Bill finds love in creating a new type of content, deciding it may become more part of his regular posting schedule.
Chapter 1 2 3 4 + ao3
Taglist: @hazelash @fuckboykaspbrak @thesquidliesthuman @rachi0964 @beepbeep-losers @bigbilliamdenbro @jalenrose11 @sleepygaybrough @itandstrangerthingsfanfic @boopboopbichie @peachywyatt @aizeninlefox @sockwantstodie @ahoybyeler @yooonbum @coffeekaspbrak
A particularly blustery and rainy day brings a rush of blue creative energy to Bill’s mind. It’s October again, like when Georgie had gone missing. He doesn’t want to go outside or even have any of his friends over, so he decides the video he must film should be different than his normal ones, a different tone filling him.
He sits at his desk with some of his watercolors and colored pencils, ready to create something like he hasn’t in a long time. His art has been on the backburner for a while, school started a month ago and stripped him of his time and even his own personal way of thinking. It was all Algebra and Shakespearean sonnets. But now, he’ll really try and get himself back into it.
He ties his red locks back with a gray scrunchie, pulling on a sweatshirt to keep warm against the cold and the way the heater in the house has been failing for several years, it just hasn’t gotten around to being fixed. Space heaters and extra layers have always been enough for Bill and Georgie. They would never dare complain, Sharon and Zach try their best. And now Georgie isn’t there to complain to either, and Bill just goes quieter.
He really has been questioning himself recently. He wears a lot of hoodies and sweatshirts, especially the thick ones that sometimes even go down to his knees. Bev says he’s just going through a phase all girls do, having some body insecurity, it goes away after you try your hardest to like what God has given you.
He also really likes the look of his hair tucked up into beanies, a faux pixie cut. He still has to ask Sharon if he can get his hair all trimmed off, he wants it at least up to his ears, it’ll be out of the way then and he won’t have to put it up whenever it gets in his face. It’ll only be beneficial, even if Sharon doesn’t think it’s so cute.
Bill isn’t so sure it’s the same insecurity Bev has been feeling. She’s excited about growing a chest and her hips widening, but Bill can only feel fear for the impending changes of his body. He thinks it’s wrong. It hasn’t been so much of a problem before, but middle school has jump started deep feelings of discomfort with every piece of himself, except maybe his own mind.
He never has his nails groomed, but since he’ll be recording a view of his hands for this video he at least trims his nails off, shaping the squared out edges with a nail file, wincing at the sandpaper-y feel so close to his skin.
He finally does get that done though, washing the dust from his fingers and returning to find a way to set up his tablet for the angle he wants to have for this concept. It’s going to be a draw/sketch with me, hopefully turned paint with me when it comes to the watercolors he got recently. He hasn’t gotten to use them yet.
He gets his phone tilted to the paper, the camera not good enough to pick up on the subtle bumps and grooves in the paper, made for peak paint performance. He starts the camera and picks up his charcoal pencil, the one he picked up at the hobby lobby the other day when he went with Beverly so she could get some thread to embroider a design on her new denim skirt for school. He aunt had brought it for her from Portland when she came down for a week in summer, Bev just hasn’t gotten to customize it quite yet.
He starts the video with a shot of him sharpening the pencil with a small handheld pencil sharpener. “Whatup! It’s m-me bdenbrough back w-with your Saturday entertainment. Today I-I’m taking it a little slower than usual, calming a l-little. We’re d-doing a draw with me, I’m gonna b-be trying to keep a cool color sch-scheme here, and we’re just gonna have a l-little chat,” he says, smiling wistfully even though his face isn’t on camera and they wouldn’t be able to hear it.
He starts drawing out a general shape, small ovals to start out some sort of human, “I th-think I might draw a m-mermaid, get some mythical cr-creatures up in my sketch collection,” he decides out loud, drawing out a few ovals to create a torso shape and then a longer one and triangle for the fins on the bottom of the tail.
Then he starts making lines around the shape, creating smoother curves around everything until it looks almost more like it could be closer to human, sans the tail of course. The last thing he leaves in the sketch is the face. “So d-don’t mind m-my inability to make faces,” he says with a small chuckle.
He draws one eye closer and larger than the other, making sure the perspective of the facial expression matches how he made the angles of the body work. Drawing lips is always fun for him, they never look the same as the last pair of lips. He makes it more symbolic than it is. “All m-my characters lips look different. They all h-have unique things to say, and the words fall fr-from unique mouths.”
He continues adding more life to the eyes, erasing a little shine in the pupils from the side where the lighting is going to come from. He’s been working more on his shading, he’s pretty proud of how far he’s gotten in his art journey. He definitely needs to work more on anatomy, but at least he can blame bad anatomy on his art style.
“I don’t h-have a name for this ch-character yet, but maybe you g-guys can suggest some! D-down in the comments let me know what her name and story sh-should be!” He announces, he just desperately wants for his subscribers to interact more, they’ve been slowing rising and it almost worries him, becoming known would be great to him, but he also doesn’t want this to become more of an actual job to him than it already is.
He pulls out his thin tipped sharpie to line it, trying to be up like one of the big art youtubers with their fancy lineart and good coloring skills. He lines it the best he can, though his hands are often shaky and it makes for difficult art. He plans to fill the empty space with some soft music when he isn’t talking. Just to make sure it’s not too boring.
He doesn’t start talking until he uncaps his blue marker to color in her details. “So I-I’m gonna be coloring this dr-drawing in with mostly cool t-toned colors,” he explains. He gets started on coloring in the darker tones, a colorless blender can be used to remove anything that gets too intense.
He drags the tip around in thick, long, and even strokes, covering her tail evenly with the deep blue, to contrast how bright blue he’ll color in the ocean. He fills her hair in with some strokes of violet among some lilac.
The completed drawing comes out nice, not the best he could do, but he did have the pressure of filming as he did it. “Okay so sh-she seems to be completed,” he says, tilting the camera up to show his smile, “So th-that concludes our Saturday video. I-it was kinda short and quiet b-but I had fun filming it!” he finally presses the camera off, letting out a sigh of relief.

Hyacinthus Art Process! (Part One)
ART PROCESS BELOW!!! (forgive me if I’m salty, I was looking for the link for Step One for almost HALF AN HOUR)
Also end and forgive me I made the bunning Hyacinthus PURPLE. Luckily I change it but S T I L L I’m ANGRY ABOUT IT
Step One - Rough Draft
Tumblr media
Okay! So I started this album around October 20th, 2020 on a Tuesday (lol).
When I was thinking of the song (while doing the covers of the last two), I really wanted to show that power and desperateness of Jamil (and how he indulges and relishes in it). I remembering see this pose by yama_kome and I really liked how they represented Jamil’s overblot. 
Ever since I saw this incredible piece of art, I wanted it to be done in this kind of way. Now, since I’m releasing covers of Scarabia (Mystique and Cardenalia), I decided to do it this time for his overblot. 
Besides, I wanted to change things up a little bit!
This took me a while to get (almost a day I believe?), but when there’s a will - there’s way. 
Just to let you know: I was originally going to name the song Hyacinth but if you say all the Scarabia Trilogy’s Tracks in order - it wouldn’t sound right. So that’s why I changed it to Hyacinthus. 
Secondly, I feel like if you say a flower’s scientific name than its common name - it gives that effect of a beginning, of a source and of an origin. I feel like the Overblots are a representation of their true feelings and emotions (in this case, Twisted Wonderland) so that’s partly the reason why I changed it as well.
Step Two - Rough Lineart
Tumblr media
This dang lineart took me till Thursday, October 22nd. Here’s why.
1. I COULDN’T WING IT THIS TIME - there was a lot going through my head as well as references about what I wanted him to wear. Other ideas popped into my head such as, “Should I add some blot there?” or “What should I do for the shirt?”. 
So many ideas, but few were added.
2. The DESIGNS. - So many interpretations and stuff were everywhere, and they all looked good. But the problem was the amount of time to put such beautiful details. That killed me.
To sum up one and two, my brain for ideas went brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-
Steps of Lineart (at the top of my head - yes. I don’t write this in the time I’m doing it because it slows me down lol):
1. Face (was done already) - more specifically the side profile to the neck
2. Nose Piercing (yE-)
3. Mouth Piercing (hOt-)
*4. Braided Hair (*dies*)
*5. Veil on Face (then the pattern waaaaaay after)
*6. Dazzling-Jewelry-Neck  (more sure about doing the neck first, but #6 and #7 can be interchangeable)
*7. Snakes (only the right of the art piece though/snakes nearest to braids or plaits)
8. Upper Body
9. Robes 
*10. Chest
11. Shoulders
12. Right Hand - Fingers
13. Right Hand - Fingernails
14. Right Hand - Palm
15. Left Hand - Fingers
16. Left Hand - Fingernails
17. Veil on Body
18. Ear (YUP, I FORGOT THE BUNNING EAR-)
*19. Snakes (left of Jamil and his beautiful hair strand)
20. Right Earring
21. Left Earring
22. Thing on his head (nope, don’t know the name and I ain’t bothering)
*For numbers 4, 5, 6,7,10, 17 and 19 in particular, I had to do multiple layers to make the detail. I would say:
#4 - Two layers: One for the plaits and one for the line...thingy...
#5 - Six layers: It’s technically two, but I had made multiple to get the pattern I wanted. Sadly, I didn’t achieve it so I decided to stick with the one above.
#6 - Six layers: THE FULL DANG TRUTH. The diamonds were first (1), then the line separating the pearl and diamonds (2), Later the designs of the pearls + rectangular thingies (3), The triangle into multiple triangle thingies were next (4), Soon after was the circles into multiple circles  + Two triangles overlapping each other (5) and then that last bit at the end of the neck (6). 
There’s actually more due to the designs of the diamonds and pearls, but I’m not going that far into memory lane.
#7 - Eight layers: If you count them, that’s how much layers I had to go through.
#10 - Four layers (without counting the two (or three) patterns that you see up there): That darn pattern (1), Them s p i k e s (2), That thing it’s being held up in (3), that pattern near the spiky pattern (4).
#17 - Four layers: Just count, please. Going up and down with my eyeballs is killing me.
#19 - Seven layers: Not as bad (because it’s pretty small), but whatever. (1 - 3) First three ear piercings you see (you may see two though), that tail, long thingy (4) that crap Bubbles wear...them circles (5 & 6), and that diamond. (hehe cATER DIAMOND)
HI!!!
You better read that crap. I took a good while writing it. If you did, you earn my biggest respect and time in the inbox. 
Step Two and a Half: Cleanup WITHOUT the Background 
Tumblr media
Ah. The nostalgia. That feeling when you forgot the flower you were supposed to be working on...
Words, text and speech can not even compare to the feeling I had when I rEALiZED, I foRGOT the BUNNING FLOWER-
Step Three: COMPLETE Cleanup
Tumblr media
Perfection. Isn’t that nice?
Step Four: Coloring 
Tumblr media
October 22nd, 2020 at 11:03 AM...
Immediately when I thought of Jamil I immediately wanted to give him that w h i t e s c h e m e 
The reason why I wanted to was because he hard more darker colors in his normal design, and besides - his power has something related to the meaning of white ;). Anyways, I made sure that the ivory (celestial?) theme continued to flow through the whole art piece. Basically, making this smol boy a goddess-
Also, I was thinking that this Overblot scheme would be his true form or something, but he kept it locked away maybe due to how much it takes up his health. Consider this idea though as 100% “Not-Fully-Developed-But-Getting-There” Idea.
I really wanted them snakes to be white. Sorry not sorry. 
Plus, I wanted that veil black instead of white, but I was way too into it to ever think of that apparently. In particular, them f i n g e r n a i l s. I absolutely wanted Jamil to have that light peach color and all that so I did it! Makes my heart go UwU-

Annnnnnnd cut! That’s Part One for you.
Hyacinthus [ Art Process - Part Two ] here!
Thank you for your continuous support!
