Some genres have a whole lot more suck in them than others, but that doesn't make me write off the genre as a whole.
More than anything else, this conversation reminds me of someone trying to have a normal conversation with a Fae. Pleasant but mildly baffling.
I quite liked the album, though I don't generally go in for death metal, melodic or otherwise. I prefer the track Tattered Banners And Bloody Flags, But I guess that one is slightly less Thor specific. :)

I am fully capable of going from deathcore to smooth jazz without finding the transition jarring. However, I am absolutely ruthless about deleting any song I don't like every time I hear.

Day 622: Chuul
DREW ON THE WRONG LAYER AGAIN ARGH
Another sketchy piece, but I've really made a breakthrough in terms of composing and scaling things. This worked out the exact size I wanted it to be, despite it being a weird monster, which was something I've kind of flailed around before. This is really important to me because being able to accurately scale things relative to each other is going to help me avoid weird proportion issues.
Anyway, better stuff soon. Feeling the drawbug.

So, what happened to the eyecatches for Charlotte and Marchande? Because I have a deep physical need for those to be things.

Ohhh, right. Fell prey to my normal habit of forgetting a project mid-way through. Will reprioritise it.

Re: Thanqol Learns 2 Draw: Every Step Is The First
Hm. I am not sure vicious is what's coming through here, but you did say just a little bit so.
Would the special moves involve breaking the mask I wonder?

Re: Thanqol Learns 2 Draw: Every Step Is The First
The special move involves evoking herself in the head. :smallwink:
Speaking of: Challenge time!
One: Perspective!
Two: Eye Catch!
Do it with existing characters of your choice. Keep to the palette limitations. Do me proud. :smallwink:
(I really need to draw stuff more often... kinda puts me to shame to see you do this and all the others that fell by the wayside. And no, the webcomic doesn't count. Somehow.)

I did not. I've just been inundated with a surge of requests. My list currently looks like:
- Dragon Picture
- Domo Picture 1
- Domo Picture 2
- Anarion birthday request
- Mummy Drawings
In no particular order.

I'm impressed. I coul maybe, maybe, have pulled that off. I could not have composed the idea in my head though.

limbs have meat. Especially succumbs chicks. Curves are the reason they wear bikinis. You'll want to get into the habit of at least nodding to musculature when doodling. Subtle curves give the illusion of planned out anatomy even when they aren't. As is, you're drawing tube limbs and even with light sketches, that's a step backwards.

I knowwwww~ I have things to do on the list, but I just keep getting ideas for things that I want to do. Whenever I see new art styles these days I get really inspired and interested in how they did that and I want to try and figure it out and break it down.
That's today's, a WIP. Whole body is drawn but only face was done to satisfaction so far. I'm close to something distinctive here.

Re: Thanqol Learns 2 Draw: Every Step Is The First
Speaking as someone who's found himself, in the past, okay with generic animu faces/expressions, and thus shouldn't be trusted when it comes to the detailing and style of sketches?
That looks really darn good and you should be proud of yourself for drawing it.

I would agree. Something interesting seems to have clicked.
