Midori! I want to ask you a question but you kinda scare me and I don’t want to be the person who wastes a question on something stupid…. I guess I want to know what the thing that you want most in the world is?
The thing I want most in the world is... Hm... To understand everything about it of course! Absolutely everything! And especially the humans living there... Is it not fascinating how humans have evolved as a species to not only adapt to the world around them but create their own designated living spaces apart from the animals they previously existed alongside? To understand how the first laws were made and modified in accordance with various cultures, to understand how people interact with each other within the scope of those laws, and the times they interact outside of it. To understand experiencing the most intense emotions such as love and hate to even the weakest ones like boredom, to know why such things exist in the first place... Ah.... It gets me fired up thinking about it... I need to work much harder now!!
i have a few resources i look to consistently but i'm gonna plug anatomy for sculptors as One Of The Most Useful. great if you're a 3D artist, INVALUABLE if you're a 2D artist. gives you turnarounds of specific limbs/fiddly body parts like ears. great especially if you're referencing a photo and start looking at an individual part like 'wait, what the hell is going on in there'
My old drawings from 2018-2019
I still really like the last 2 hehe
I tried to make it 1:1 to that one pixel sprite of his and I think I did a pretty good job if I do say so myself hehe (extra pic v v v)
Same as first image but w/ a filter that I thought made the colors more similar to his sprite
