I do! it might be the only DE ship that I find interesting, there’s just something about them that clicks for me! first saw it in a fic where Reg was the prisioner of Azkaban and Barty betrayed him. chef’s kiss no notes. should draw them more but i’m too focused on my main bitches
I love your art <3333 I was just wondering, do you have any headcanons about Lily's family? Or James's if you don't have any for her. Thank you! :)
i have plenty
she’s half irish (on her dads side)
i’m a firm believer in the lily evans did not have a perfect family agenda
her parents were a bit emotionally neglectful, cause they had to work a lot and she was off to school all year and when she was at home, it was pretty much empty
so she worked on the summers to earn extra money for her supplies and keep herself busy cause the house was too quiet
petunia and snape where the reasons why she got closed off to other people when she was 15, and feared people leaving her behind again
like SERIOUS abandonment issues
i love Derry Girls, so I think she definitely has an uncle Colm and an aunt Sarah.
Her mom is from the North of Mexico and she grew up there, spent a lot of time there before Hogwarts
hi would you ever post your drawing process? i’ve noticed you do research when it comes to stuff like finding references to age up characters properly, making the characters’ styles accurate for their time, etc.
sometimes you don’t realize how much goes into art besides the sketches, drawing, rendering, all that stuff, so the little things like that which make a big difference in the end is so cool to notice, you’re a really inspiring artist for me! your art style is incredible and i’d love to see what goes through your head before drawing something, if that’s alright with you ofc.
like what’s your inspiration? what shaped your art style? do you use references and how often bc sometimes i see some poses you draw and think ok there HAD to be a reference used for this bc it’s too good but i understand finding refs for what’s going on your head is difficult a lot of times so i just chalk it up to you being skilled enough to guess how the anatomy would work (so much praise for artists like that because??? insane talent! not to say using refs makes artists less skilled or anything ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ hope it didn’t come off that way)
OK WOW THAT WAS A LOT IM SORRY!
oh where to begin…
I usually get ideas of what I want to do, but it’s not until I open the canvas that my hand just knows what to do I guess? There’s times when I can just paste what’s in my head on the canvas and times when I struggle more and I have to look for references/trace poses (which are usually me with really bad lightening around my room or yeah, pics from pinterest)
lol funny story, my one drawing of James, Lily and Harry dancing I recorded myself dancing and got screenshots of that to base the poses on…. I accidentally sent one to a person that was commissioning me at the time, most embarrasing moment of my life
ANYWHOO! In terms of clothes, I have a board for every character where I put like what I think their style entails. Cause I like it when they look like teenagers in the 70s
Here’s my process when i just vomit my idea on the canvas
there are some where I don’t have the patience or the project is too big (ex. the panels) and figuring out the anatomy would be too time consuming, so i trace the pose but i’ve been trying to do that less and less to make myself actually work and get better at anatomy
and what shaped my artstyle? wow that’s a hard question lol, idk
I think i’ve picked things from artists i’ve liked and just created a frankenstein of it, little by little and without realizing it.
not that my art looks ANYTHING like theirs, but these are some of the artists that have inspired me a lot through my art journey
