While I was searching for some old draw made when I was teen/late teen for this thread, I also found some drawings I made during my first years of University:
Yes those are first drawings of Russel and Jake my corvids OCs. The peregrine falcon is Jake's arch enemy XD Since their start as OCs, I always imagined the relationship between him and Russel similar to that of boke and tsukkomi of manzai comedy, but with ages I also got inspired to make them evolve into a bromance similar to the one you see in Book IX (lines 225 to 241) of Iliad between Achilles and Patroclus. This draw sums it up:
(it will be digitalized in future)
Silly drawing of Near trying to build his card castle. The pose was referenced from Death Note manga, one of my favourite Japanese works. In the next drawing (not posted here) Near asks Anthony Rester to bring the cat out of the SPK headquarter. I always loved Death Note style, it's one of my favourite and I try to emulate it as much as possible because it's visually very pleasant to look at.
Ok these two drawings are based on the dialogues and interaction between Michaela Dietz (Amethyst's voice actress) and Jesse Zuke (former storyboard artist and storyboard revisionist for Steven Universe). Jesse Zuke has always been my favoruite storyboard artist in the Crewniverse, I love their personality, I love their style (my favourite along with Rebecca Sugar's one). It's a deep shame they had to delete their Twitter accounts and other social medias because of harassment (I suspect transphobia) and to all who harassed them: fuck you!
This is a golden-shouldered parrot (Psephotellus chrysopterygius) a rare bird of southern Cape York Peninsula, in Queensland, Australia, classified as Endangered due mostly to an increase in mid-story vegetation, which increases predation. A major conservation project is underway on Artemis Station to save the species from extinction. I discovered this species thanks to a former friend who had a scientist OC based on this species. I really love the colour pattern.
Some stupid silliness with the "gem shaming" trend that happened on Tumblr some years ago XD
This was more of a venting drawing I did 9 years ago. The night sky and stars were made with watercolours while the rest with coloured pencils.
This was made during 2016 Losar, the year of Male Fire Monkey. The Tibetan macaque was not a coincidence since the importance of Losar in Tibetan tradition. I am unsure if celebrating it or not this year.
A crossover between an Anime character (Shamshel from NGE) and a cartoon character (Amethyst from SU). I found the sue of whip attacks and colour scheme fitting for their interactions. I know Shamshel is a lot bigger than Amethyst, in this drawing he has the same size of Amethyst's. I don't do often crossovers, but this was particularly fun to do.
Just a hooded crow drawing. I liked shading the head to give those particular light features of the bird.
Like in the thread I linked above, this is one of late teen drawings I did. It was a study to memorize head scales in order to learn snake identification since they be quite challenging especially if colubrid. I love snakes to death.
That's all for now people and friends, see you next time!
