Eyes, nose, mouth, head, hands, ears and folds reference drawing tutorials.
figuring out complicated designs in perspective doesnt have to make you mad so here is good tips to keep in mind. can be used for all kinds of things
a character i designed for a story that never got off the ground. she’s a self-hating succubus.
So cute! I love the color tones!
Ok cosplayers, it has come to my attention that a lot of you don’t know what this stuff is. Sit down and let me learn you a thing. This stuff here is called Frog Juice (there’s no real frogs in it). It’s originally for stuff like vinyl signs (my dad owns a sign company, so I grew up with this stuff), but it’s even more useful for a wide range of cosplay stuff.
Since it’s designed to protect outdoor vinyl signs, it can do a whole hell of a lot. It dries super fast (three minutes until it isn’t tacky) and shiny, so it’s perfect for anything that’s supposed to look like metal, ice, gems, etc. It’s incredibly strong and weatherproofs your stuff against ANYTHING, rain, snow, UV rays (so it doesn’t fade in sunshine), sleet, hail, whatever. It’s flexible too, so your foam will still bend and move with you without cracking. Not only that, but since it’s an aerosol, you can’t miss patches and it leaves no brush strokes, and it goes on so thin you can’t see it’s there. It doesn’t smudge, smear, scratch, or leave fingerprints, so your stuff can go a whole weekend at a con and still look brand new.
The kicker? It’s cheap, and a can will last you forever. I kidnapped this one brand new from my dad, and I’ve so far used it (in double coats, which is unnecessary, but I like to be on the safe side) on a full set of armour, three pairs of bracers, a top hat, pauldrens, two bows, and a pair of greaves. And there’s still plenty in the can. Did I mention it can also be used to seal foam in a single, flexible coat that can then be painted over, so you don’t have to spend two days messing with glue and whatnot?
TL;DR - If you need a foam sealer, a top coat, weatherproofing, or any kind of shiny finisher, GET SOME FUCKING FROG JUICE (the brand I use can be purchased here: http://www.signwarehouse.com/FL-CC-p-FL-FROG-12Z.html)
I never related that much with something
This is the definition of college
Playing with those red and blue pencils that I’ve seen other artists use. Not sure what the proper way to use them is quite yet, but they’ve helped and are a lot of fun! Especially the double sided ones, makes for easy color switch. XD
And of course my 0.3 led pencil, I had been searching for one for years! Finally got one in a bookstore in a Seattle Asian mart.
Tested my first real go around with my friend’s and my OC Freya, apparently I haven’t been drawing her body correctly lol, but… Minor issue if boob size reduction. Lol all fixed now~

Been re watching Yu-gi-oh! It’s ever so fun!
Yugi’s hair is fun to draw.
I need to draw me some Bakura~
Seto Kaiba used to be my favorite, but during this last go around, Bakura, (mostly Yami Bakura) has stolen my heart.
But Yugi is still cute too!
