I now have a rivalry with drawing shoes, here is someone entirely new to Ibis Paint trying to sketch and do lineart for a WIP compressed into 1 minute. Sorry for any flickering from looking back and forth on layers
Bailey Stockholm
The first time I drew him fully, his design has slightly changed since I drew this a few months back
A collection of my attempts to get Micah's hair and face shapes, as well as the small doodle that got me to draw him more. Still working on getting around to his character sheet as well as backstory related art
Someone please stop him from cutting his own hair too, it's so uneven
Just the casual list Bailey has on an average weekend
My favourite silly man
More from Deacon, a few lil doodles
Buckle up because I'm about to ramble a tad
Watching Look Back was probably the best thing a streaming platform could've recommended to me, the way Fujimoto wrote the characters was so immensely human and the most I've related to characters in years in terms of art. Drawing out of felt necessity instead of genuine love is something I felt so intensely related to, not drawing for some time and then picking it back up again as well.
I've had times I haven't drawn for months then only to draw out of a felt need instead of my love for my work, I've had times I've drawn multiple pieces in a day because I wanted to and loved every moment of it. Both girls have been me at some point in my life, childhood and current adulthood.
The story was absolutely brilliant, in all ways I can think of, watching two young artists grow up and their paths that they took, the way they developed. I could not have asked for more, I don't think I've cried that much over characters I knew such a short time either, but they moved me. Those two girls got me so involved, made me feel so seen and then broke my heart in the best way possible.
I love this film and it's story with all my heart
My Cajun anomaly son, bless his stupid heart
Re-emerging from my gaming frenzy after playing Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 in a two week span having played neither before, skill jump between both kicked my ass. 10/10, will do this again immediately
