OH MAN THIS IS SO FUCKIN' CUTE, DAVID YOU ARE A GREAT PAPA. ; AA;

After seeing all the katia pictures SpaceMouse posted and hearing about the comic I took a look and found this in the art section.

I made this on a drawing app so it's kinda messy. Basically, it's Mike sitting under the original tree, thinking about Lucy, while she's sitting under a tree at wherever she is now, thinking about him.

Enjoy the Bittersweetness!

And I'm THIRTEEN, so don't comment about perspective or different problems with my art

Sorry about above message. I didn't mean to come across as rude, I'm just a really sensitive person because most people don't like my art.

Dont be so insecure. I like it. You should let people judge your art based on the art and not your age. Keep drawing ^^

OMG! A game just came out on Steam that looks so similar!

yep haha

NERD!

Wow Paulo you look like you dun seen a ghost.

This is actually from my deviantART account, but I felt like it would be something cool to post.

I normally don't draw fan art. But I've been looking for ways to practice my Chiaroscuro in pen and ink. I also have been practicing cleaning up scans in photoshop. I admit that I went a bit over broad and changed the colors of the pen and ink. Also I used the cheap inks on this, so its not that great. I need lots of critical commentary on this so I can get some fresh ideas.

Because you asked for critical commentary!

Criticism: The pose is a little awkward. It feels like they are stiff like Lucy's arms folding gives them the illusion of being too long and too straight. If you look at your arm, you can notice curves and a sense of flow from the shoulder going thick thin thick thin wrist hands. Don't be afraid to flesh this out more (I noticed you were doing it, probably to make her look thinner). Mike's position looks forced, try to mimic his pose and notice how your arm looks more "tucked" in or if he's leaning on it try to compliment that by shifting his shoulders.

Hands: I notice that you have trouble drawing hands (like most people) so here are some tips for the future. Look at the hand anatomy; you have a wrist, a palm, knuckles, fingers, and a thumb. The thumb should start from the wrist and slope up to desired length. The main component after this is that the thumb should end halfway up the palm. That actually the hardest part of drawing hands, the wrist, the palm, and the thumb. The fingers should have a natural curve while resting rather than outstretched. That's all the tips I can personally give you. The rest is gained through studying anatomy, either via googling it or looking at your own hands and practicing.

Other than that, I love this. The position of the camera is excellent as you got the anatomy right (for your style) as we look downwards. The legs look long in a good and sexy way with the muscles all nicely shaded and brought out. I love your shading with a mixture of yellow and purple and using TEXTURES (drools) to bring out details such as Mike's scarf and Lucy's bow.

I hope this helped!

@ Tylord the hands I made were intentional because they're cat paws. I'm actually very good at drawing human hands.

I didn't notice how lucy's arms look till you said it. I know that mikes pose looks forced but that is actually how I hold my own body naturally, so it looked normal to me.

I'm also very surprised that you never said anything about the feet (there are none). For some reason no one ever says anything about that.

Thanks for the commentary, it did help. I feel kinda bad for posting this because this isn't very good compared to how I actually draw. I said I was going for a Chiaroscuro, but I look back on it and its really not that dramatic or contrasting enough.

LOL forgot.

@Tylord the yellow and purple were from photoshop. I actually did the whole think in red ink then added blue then added green. drawing stuff like that is general a color pencil technique, but it can be done with any color medium that u can show value with. it became yellow and purple because of photoshop, and because yellow purple are complements.

The lack of feet could actually be a style that some people decide to do (look up ryanide on deviantart for examle)so I wasn't too surprised by it. I thought they looked more "cattish" with the lack of feet so to speak.

Regarding the hands, your skill did not show here so I assumed so apologies for underestimating. Regardless, the hands are out of proportions, cat paws or not, due to the lack of wrists. Seeing how they are more human than cat (bipedal, muscular, built, ect) I would suggest making human hands instead or no hands at all to match the feet.

Also I was praising your awesome textures and just happened to mention the colors. I kind of noticed the colors were a photoshop result when I read your first result as I occasionally do the same thing to my art.

Again, great job!

I agree every time I look at it i feel like I should have drawn normal hands.

Just wanted to draw some of the characters (hopefully will turn into a little series) older and at their professions along with backstories (non-canon, of course). Sorry for the large size, this is my first time uploading an image… or doing fan art in general. Anyways, first is Paulo!

Paulo passed high school with decent grades and decent only. After getting shot down to all universities, he decided to go into community college, now determined to gain A’s and B’s to avoid the self-proclaim failure and embarrassment. It was there that he found out he had more brains that he originally thought and surprisingly found math more enjoyable. After taking a financial class, which he thought was easy, he took another and another until he transferred to a respectable university and got a degree in business along with a job as a tax accountant.

He needs reading glasses and looks more mature than he actually is and he and Mike are pretty good drinking buddies, meaning Paulo gets drunk and Mike drives him home. He’s fairly happy and currently dating Lucy. In two years she’ll pop the question to him, claiming he was too much of a wuss to do so.

At first I thought this was a Doctor Who crossover. I thought Paulo was David Tennant for a bit there. Either way I really like this! Good job!

Some Augustus sketches!

Gotta love that siamese. <3

EEEEEEEE

i would fuck augustus

Love this so much.

Thank you taeshi
