have you heard of disco elysium by any chance? from what i've seen here, i think you may like the vibe
I finally got around to playing disco elysium last october and it now sits as my favourite game of all time. It's hard to overstate just how much I like the vibe, so good job on nailing that lol

are you a circumpolar person? the way you made that one katara art was excellent
im not, but i try to do my due diligence when pulling design inspiration from actual existing cultures.
the katara design i assume you're referring to isnt actually very good in this regard, and i did a very bare minimum effort in putting it together, and that fact that it took off the way it did is honestly a little frustrating lol
gonna take this opportunity to show off what i consider to be much stronger designs on my part, wrt to reimagining the watertribe parkas

Your art is amazing and I could stare at it all day! But I'm curious about your Ocs, specifically Jacque and Sloane.
Did you change anything about them? Like appearance or storyline?
Thank you so much!
The issue with Sloane and Jacque is that they never really had an established setting or storyline to begin with, and it has given me a lot of headaches over the years when it comes to actually doing something with them and develop them into more than just vague personality concepts. The sketches from last month is me trying to actually give them a setting and story to inhabit for once lmao.
I didn't use to actually write shit for my characters, but my friends have enabled me and I'm now suffering from trying to write actual characters and story. This has been most successful with Otto and Siskin, my tiefling oc's, and Jacque and Sloane to a lesser degree. To claim that they have an actual storyline is a bit of a stretch still, but I've established a more concrete dynamic and aesthetic for them that are both pretty different from what little I had for them to begin with.
In my recent re-hashing of them, the two of them meet as Sloane is taken as a prisoner of war after some sort of ~ambiguous magical disaster~ with her at its center. Jacque is a commanding officer of the opposing side, who for seemingly very selfish reasons offers Sloane protection in exchange for her service.
It's a fantasy setting with a magic system centered around promise, oaths and their binding power. Sloane is an anomaly, someone who's made a desparate choice that she's paying dearly for, and Jacque is someone with quite a bit of power, but not as much as she would like, who's trying to overturn the shape of the conflict they're in.
Their dynamic is tense with a spicy power imbalance. Sloane has wings because it's sexy. That's the basic framework I've got.

How often do you go studies? How do you push yourself to do them? I personally struggle to study instead of focusing on my art.
Honestly, I mainly do studies when I feel stuck with my art in general, and have no real drive to do original stuff. For me it's refueling when I'm stuck in a rut, to make sure I'm still drawing during times when I wouldn't otherwise, and I'm less disciplined about them than I could be lol
Like right now, the only studies I regularly do are daily gesture drawings, which is more to keep myself in a routine than anything else. My last proper study now was months ago, but sometimes I do them obsessively several weeks in a row.
If your own art is what's distracting you from doing more proper studies, the only reason I'd worry about studies is if you feel frustrated about stagnating skill-wise, and when that's the case, I try to work with more references while doing original stuff. In a lot of ways, you can always turn an original piece into a sneaky study lol
Ultimately, the only important thing for me is that I am drawing, everything else is secondary.
