me to the three people who interact with my posts
Oooh! Please allow me to throw my hat in the ring with my darling doll. @wastelandhell Take your pick of where ever in my gal’s journey looks more appealing to draw from either scared, doe-eyed vault dweller, weary scavenger, (her mercenary arc hasn’t been fleshed out yet), BOS knight, to jaded General.
(Artbreeder scars and moles for reference if needed.) please forgive any crap quality.
That's right! Follower request time! I have a couple if days off and want to do something for you guys. Beloved mutuals or new followers that I've never spoken to, drop me your refs I want to draw your fallout characters. Yes I will draw characters I've drawn before, and I'll try and do as many as I can, but no guarantees and no set timeframe for completion. I'm just one guy doing this in my free time.

How do you draw blood? I always make mine look like they got ketchup on them
It depends on what kind of blood we’re talking about. Not like I’m a specialist or anything but the color and consistency of blood depends on where it’s taken from (veins, arteries, organs), how it was applied (splatter, drip, soak), when it was applied (old blood goes black) and what kind of material it is applied to (human skin, scales, fur, fabric, etc). Now obviously I’m not known for photo-realistic rendering but it’s good to know the differences anyway.I am still experimenting with drawing blood but here are some different things I’ve done so far:
This is just your average blood stuff on skin, fabric and fur. I sometimes combine random splatter brushes but I almost always end up using kyletwebster‘s watercolor brushes. (And some other ones mostly from his megapack.)I do separate layers because older, dried blood turns dark with time while fresh blood still has a shine to it. I try to keep it balanced between clean edges (drops, pouring) and smeared parts. I think my style allows me to use both but for a cel-shaded look I’d do something like that last orc picture.^My favorite cartoony blood is definitely from Venture Bros. It’s nicely stylized and easy to animate.
Another thing I like drawing is dynamic blood squirts! As you can see on the second image, I draw the little triangle-shaped drips along an action line, complete with its own inside-shadows and shines. Then I select it part-by-part (not all at once!) and motion blur each part in the direction of the sprinkle.
And finally, here’s a thing I did last week. Blood bath!!Of course you don’t have to use a fancy grid to transform it accurately, you can just draw a quick perspective plane for yourself.This drawing was a quickie so I didn’t bother to add real details and shine to the blood but if you want to make it look chunkier you can thicken it by giving it a bit of a shadow.
So yeah, uh… I hope this helped somewhat. I’m still figuring stuff out myself. :)For the full size images please see my blood tag!
They’re plotting something. I just know it.
