Hey y'all! I know you love drawing references over here, so I wanted to show you a preview of a set that one of my Patrons requested.

If you like this stuff and are able to, please consider supporting me via Patreon (where you can find the extended photo set, including shots from cover and up a tree), or dropping a few quid over on Kofi. It means the world to me, and helps me keep going with my archery shenanigans!

And as always, please tag me in your art if you're comfortable to! I love to see it ❤️

Character Posing

Nicola, our animation blogger, is making progress on her video game character design. She's developed a few more poses and facial expressions and created a test image pairing character art with a text box just to see how it looks. #MarywoodArt #animation

Here’s (yet another!) update on my very slow progress on the video game I’m working on. I now have two more poses of the main character, Patty, for the dialogue sections. I had planned to make a few more, such as scared, surprised, angry, laughing, etc., but they took much longer than expected. I’ll still do a couple more I think—but not yet. I should work on the other two characters a bit first,…

Forefront Identification - The importance of posing

The value of posing cannot be emphasised. It's one of the essential elements that characterises art forms in terms of presentation, appeal, and narrative. Fundamentally, poses should be viewed as a shape-based visual representation of a concept. The role shape-based visuals play is very important for the stage of storyboarding your characters. The essential plot poses, which would be discovered by thumbnail sketches and notes, are what establish the skeleton of the scene, therefore must first identify the appropriate, most fundamental expressions that describe them. This is essential for animators as they aim to find the most expressive shapes that define emotion and physicality as well as the story (Animated Spirit, 2021).

Posing characters with various character qualities, skills, and body types in various circumstances and emotions is a new task every time. Ignoring the fact that many fundamental concepts regarding arcs, anticipation, timing, and spacing can be learned and implemented without much thinking. Excellent character posing has the ability to convey many aspects: action, emotion, body type, appeal, and storytelling. All these aspects are important but also skillful to be able to convey all these in just one pose. This argues that posing is what gives a final design the approval and finishing touches. This also suggests that without the perfect pose, the final detailing of a character means nothing.

As a concept artist posing is essential. However, if it does not make the right silhouette then the pose means nothing. For example, the image above is of a large medieval pumpkin knight, created by Kyle Sarafolean. The artist uses pumpkins as his inspiration for the shape of his character, giving him a rotund belly and round shapes. The artist has also spaced out his arms so they are visible and don't blend in with his body. Shapes can also tell a character's personality such as round shapes give a soft and jolly nature to this character.

Another example from Sarafolean is his three pirates. They all have obvious and distinct features as well as varied shapes to make the bodies. As a whole, they are a band of pirates, as individuals they are still recognisable from their shape choices. The image results in a lineup of three distinctive and engaging figures whose designs convey the tale of the Prisoner's capture by highlighting the contrast between their sizes and forms and by selecting positions for each one that emphasises their reaction to this scenario (Sarafolean, 2020).

these two are so interesting to me

characters belong to @canisalbus

#clenches fists. im so sosososo normal about them. i think about them a normal amount (lying) #actually the 2nd image is based on some sort of anime couple pose template(?????) that i saw a while back and wanted to draw them in it #but i swear to god i CANNOT FUCKING FIND IT. i was literally knee deep in yuri and yaoi fanart for hours trying to find that god damn photo #but i dont even know who the characters were and pinterest just shows me bakugou and deku making out sloppy style whenever i try #so i gave up an tried drawing it from memory and cried the whole time. i hate anatomy.. but they look so happy so its fine #god whenever i see Lore or sweet little tidbits for these two i want to tear into something with my teeth and throw something /pos #i genuinely want to study these gay little renaissance dogs under a microscope #what fucks me up is the fact that we all know it ends horribly but u cant help loving them anyway.. they are so. incoherent hand gestures #my art #myart #others ocs #vasco #machete #vaschete #furry art #fur #anthro

#hermitcraft #goodtimeswithscar #my art #sketch #wanted to make the chair resemble one of them safari cars but i think because i went with the funky colors it doesn't read well... #it's still a bit more bulky and rough looking so it's fine #also. if i had a nickel for every time i drew a character eating cup noodles....... it's like. a comfort thing apparently #altho to be fair i was thinking of scar eating something more of a mashed potatoes than noodles 🤔 #i associate cupped potatoes with train travel so that's why #btw really like how this one turned out. the pose the colors im quite proud of it

found family coworkers (definition multiple) of all time [image description under cut]

Comic 1:

First panel, Ingo and Akari are standing together. Someone off-screen asks “oh, is that your dad?”. Akari has an awkward smile and replies “oh, no no. he’s my...” There’s a long pause as she looks at Ingo. He’s leaving it up to her. She finishes, “He’s my coworker... friend... guy.” In smaller font, she continues “yea. that.” Comic 2: A dramatic panel of Volo, looking pissed off, shouting “who are you to interfere?!!” Ingo tugs the brim of his cap lower. The upper half of his face is in shadow, while his eyes stand out. He looks threatening but has his expression is his characteristic neutral-frown, and he says “...I’m her coworker friend guy.”. In the final panel, Machoke is throwing an incredible amount of punches, a reference to Star Platinum from Jojo. Ingo is pointing with one hand, his battle pose. The background text reads, “What does that even mean??” Volo is experiencing off-screen violence.

Comic 3: The comic is titled “Reunion”. In the first panel, Ingo shows off Akari, with a faint smile on his face. She is labelled “best girl (assigned by god)”. He says, “Emmet, this is Akari, my coworker. She’s the reason I was able to return to this station.” In smaller font, Akari comments to herself, “ooh... so this is the man in white.”

In the second panel, in smaller font Ingo notes “I think I remember now...” He says, “Akari, this is Emmet. He's also my coworker.” Coworker is underlined. Emmet is crying in the background, looking confused, conflicted, distressed, and happy. He says, “Brother...?” In the final panel, we see a framed photograph of all three together. Underneath are the words, Employee of the Month. Akari is dressed as a depot agent, and she and Ingo pose with peace signs. Emmet is red faced from crying, but he’s smiling widely. He looks happy.

#pokemon arceus legends #submas #akari #ingo #pla #comics #bytebun draws #your long lost presumed dead brother shows up with a teenager and introduces you as his coworker wwyd #i'm really pushing the platonic ride or die coworkers dynamic for these two. my agenda #making shitty comics is so much more fun than making nice comics i don't have to worry about panel sizes and shit #yeah it's a jojo reference U_U i was drawing that second panel like wait... this looks like sugim*to g*lden k*muy #and you know who he looks like...? starts with a j #my hand remembers this shape of character #originally it was going to be ingo suplexing the guy. but that's a complicated pose... #messed up the tag... #pokemon legends arceus
