Hello, all! If you all could pray for my brother, I would really appreciate. My parents just left to take him to the ER tonight. We thought he was just getting sick with a stomach bug, but things aren’t getting better, just worse (he usually feels better after throwing up, but after several times he doesn’t). We’re not sure what’s going on, and he…[Read more]

@dekreel, Yay! Yeah, I never seem to get very far in month-long challenges like this, but maybe it’s time to break that cycle for once and for all! XD

@lin, Yeah, I have the same thing going on here. But we’ll see what happens. I might be able to make time for it among my other projects. 🙂

@dekreel I highly suggest looking up a ton of pictures of people running from different angles and gesture drawing them. It will help you nail down some of the proportions and mechanics of people running and give you a feel for the angle you want.  Hope it helps 🙂

i think the perspective is messed up , the posture is correct but the view is not . the view is orthogonal , it is supposed to be perspective . u need to draw the right leg bigger than the other parts . just google perspective view , if u couldn’t understand, i can teach you . I m pretty good with perspective but i have seen better artists than me…[Read more]

@dekreel, Well, it does look like someone running, so that’s good. 🙂 The thing that stood out to me, though, was that it looks like the person’s right elbow should be a little bit lower and their right fist a bit further out from their body…. if that makes sense.

@dekreel WELCOME BACK! *tackle hugs* (Sorry I’m late…)

I’ve killed about ten characters so far this year. It’s a wonder my heart is still intact.

For resources on writing characters with a mental illness, Blame it on the Brain and Counseling the Hard Cases are both about understanding and treating mental illness with a Christian mindset. It’s was interesting to see issues that I thought were purely medical that could be treated through counseling. (Although to be clear, both books encourage…[Read more]

Hey guys, here I am…. a week later…. XP Sorry!

@dekreel, I love your drawings!! The character from Honey Butter is so cute! 😀 (I’ve never actually read that book, but I’ve read quite a bit about it, and I really want to read it.)

Thank you so much! You’re very talented yourself! 😀
