fought hard not to delete this post will never finish it because I stopped caring, so here's the full sketch (remember, workplace is your second home)

based on this poster

up drawing everyone's favorite character (work in progress)

the idea is based on a Polish socialist realism poster thing - for now it only says 'REMEMBER' with the rest cut out, but I'll obviously translate the slogan if I finish the drawing (then you'll find out what it is that you shouldn't forget about) I wanted to do this for a very long time, because I can't get over how Jayce looks exactly like the type of idealized men that the socialist propaganda posters would depict, and I find it extremely funny not only that, but also the slogans that were used back when Polish People's Republic was a thing are now hilarious

I also can't unsee how he kinda looks like or has the same weird, kinda cursed(?) energy as Alex the Lion from Madagascar, so that's what I used for his head for now (it is also great at conveying all of the feelings I was feeling when spending hours on the drawing) I've had a 4 months break from art and (as always) ended up setting the bar way too high, so this will most likely take forever I hate how I have no idea what I'm doing, but instead of actually learning I'll be wasting hours trying to figure things out on my own and getting angry with myself, because everything takes so much time and still doesn't look any good - I really wish I could work on my skill consistently and learn like a normal person, maybe then I wouldn't be so far behind despite (theoretically) doing digital art for half of my life

anyway, that's probably how my posts are going to look like for the most part, because I need a place to ramble (I have no one to talk to), which I used to do a lot on insta story; still figuring out how to do this on Tumblr without scaring people off with walls of text

back with a new craft I tried

🏠 Stardew Valley farmhouse I built two years ago and finished this year

I got inspired by what Studson Studio does, because I'm something of a trash collector myself (I have a whole drawer full of stuff I'm hoping to use some day), but for a long time I couldn't get myself to actually make something out of it

I chose the farmhouse because it was an easy project to start with, but I must say that I really outdid myself and outrun my expectations I mean, it's wonky (especially the door, which I remade two times) but the painting was what surprised me I had no idea I could do anything like that and not only make it look good but also have fun

ingredients: - cardboard (house walls - hairdryer packaging; porch - cookies packaging; planks and roof tiles - coffee packaging) - craft foam (door and window frame, chimney bricks) - plastic from a box of pen cartriges (window glass) - sticks from the backyard (pile of wood) - toothpicks (porch railing) - airdry clay (pots) - paper (plants) lights up with a short, cheap LED string

I was really really hoping I would do arctober, but I can't do much, so here's the shittiest and most out of focus (just like how I'm feeling) proof that I tried (Piltover and Zaun)

had many ideas, but it turns out I'm suddenly not able to draw the simplest thing (I will keep trying, because I also wanted to make some crafts)

don't think I can keep up anymore, but here's the rest of the stuff I drew for Arctober before I focusted on finishing the grenade

for the "magic" prompt I tried to recreate a page from Jayce's notebook (and failed at illegible writing)

drawing finally felt fun and not like a torture! I even introduced some colour and you won't believe it, but I actually like one or two pieces presented here

for a very long time I was not used to drawing more than once a month (at best), so this is a journey I'm proud of - a "physical" proof it is worth pushing yourself through painfully scribbling some shitty drawings to actually get better and discover you're not as stupid as you thought

funky creature composition

not me desperately editing this, because #art is trending and I hope to get more than 4 followers // character heavily inspired Felix Colgarve's work, precisely by the creature riding a dragon in SOURCE by Fever The Ghost music video

getting ready to shoot my final photography assignment
