thumbnail sketch for day 3 of mm!
day 3 is: characters overlooking the kingdom! so more of my weaknesses — scene composition AND backgrounds AND BUILDINGS!

sketches for day 2 of mm
i decided to go with an anxious crow named vincent for my protag’s companion! he is very good at finding things but gets spooked very easily :0 i am very bad at drawing birds so why not force myself to draw birds a lot??? DISCOMFORT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GROW i just wanted to check that this looks like a crow right??? it’s not totally off base and doesn’t look very out of style for me????
day 1 of #misadventuremay !!
so technically this challenge actually started on the 30th, which i did not realize so i’m gonna upload my first two images tomorrow eeee BUT i couldn’t wait to share cal!!! clearly they’ve been thru a lot of changes lol but i love them a lot. they made their coat themselves, and wanders the land in search of fallen stars to use in potions and medicines and things. they also have an extensive history in herbology so they get very crafty with the star bits they find!!! they’re also very g...

ahhh so one of my fave artists, @mattydraws on twitter is doing this art prompt for may called “misadventure may” where you draw fun adventure/fantasy things and it’s gonna push me so far out of my comfort zone but i really wanna get more into fantastical character design so i think it’ll be a lot o fun! this is an initial sketch for my main protagonist and their sidekick/companion - nothing is set in stone but i rather like them!
