Okay, so I was wandering around on the VERY OLD Character Exchange topic, and I’m feeling nostalgic XD

@alia  Do you still need someone to draw Nykkai or Joy Transhell?

@aysia-serene (If you’re still around)  Do you need Seth or Kalia?

@sleepwalkingmk  Do you still need Marissa?

I know these are ANCIENT, I just felt like doing this XD

@ceaseless-prayer  you could try copying it to a Google Doc if you use Google 🙂

@ingridrd  I like Devan the best, I think. But I also really like Corban and Bryson 🙂

@ceaseless-prayer  A film script! OOOOOOOHHH! 😀 😀

I can’t seem to access it though, it keeps trying to give me a tutorial

@dekreel Ahhh! The struggles! They’re real! XD

@nicolerivers03  How did I miss your pictures?!

WOW. Those are AWESOME!! I love them!!

@silverclaw-bonnetfolly  Ahh. Well that’s okay — call me “dear” as much as you like! X)

@perfectfifths  Right! I try to keep it the same size, too. But then apparently I make the body too small. *sighhhhh*

@dekreel Yass! I try to keep the head the same size that I started with (and if I did that and made the body in proportion, they wouldn’t be so small!!!), but sometimes it’s just going to be too big, and I don’t want to do it chibi. 😛

@skredder  Awesome! Thanks   *files*

@perfectfifths  Ohhhh, I hate that!

Sometimes, for me, I finish drawing the body, but the head is too big, so I make it smaller. But that means I have to make the neck longer, and it ends up being like a giraffe! ARGH!

I think that happened when I was drawing my current profile picture, actually XD

Thanks! Yes, mine often end up small, too.…[Read more]

I’m making notes for characters in the KPA and I have some specific questions. If you don’t want to be in the KPA, you don’t have to answer these questions

For those of you who are new, I’m writing a story about us crazy people/creatures/aliens. It’s code named “KeePer Adventure,” or KPA

@waterlily  Do you want to be a mermaid?

@skredder  Do y…[Read more]

@dekreel No, I mean if I have to re-draw the head (because the neck is “attached” to the body), sometimes I don’t draw it on in the right place and it’s not centred or something.

Oh, that’s some really good advice. 😀 I should do more eye practise. My other problem is I make my drawings so small, it’s often hard to do details like that.

@skredder  Yeah? Well I have written NOTHING so far! XD

Then again it hasn’t been an hour XD

@perfectfifths  You mean the neck is always bent…?

I discovered that if you want to make your characters more expressive, focus on the eyes. The eyelids, the shape, the pupils, the eyebrows, everything. For example, I discovered that if you want your character to look excited, happy, or even scared, the pupils need to be fairly small, and they…[Read more]

@dekreel Probably. I’d just move the face though, if everything else about the head is all right. Oftentimes the neck doesn’t like up right on the head. XD I’m also not very good at profiles, though I’m working on that, and I don’t think my characters are as expressive as they could be. 😛

@skredder  @aislinn-mollisong  @dragon-snapper  @winter-rose  @jane-maree  @seekjustice  @anyone

I’m writing. Hopefully. I might get distracted. Again… X)

Congrats, Aislinn! Hooray for inspiration! *high five*

@perfectfifths  That happens with me, too. Do you ever have to adjust the chin or jaw because it doesn’t line up with the nose or mouth? I have to do that all the time!

@dekreel Oh yeah, I usually do the head first too, to get a general idea of the size, but because my proportions are usually off, the head size usually ends up changing.

@sarah-anson That is how I’d like to draw my manga. How do you do that?? 😀
