hey @ the person that sent me an anon about some standees - not gonna reply directly to the ask and put the persons name out there cause i don’t want them getting any harassment
thanks for letting me know, i appreciate the thought! the designs definitely feel inspired by mine, but i feel that they are different enough and it’s for a separate fandom so I feel it’s not a problem :)

Hi super random but I used to follow you a while ago and then like forgot but THEN that one Reddit comic came to me in a literal dream and I was like “oooo I wonder how they doin” but anyway,,
Why do you draw Harry Potter as,,,not white? ID LIKe TO PREFACE THIS BY SAYING I DONT HAVE AN ISSUE IM BLACK I LOVE TO SEE IT HE IS FINE but I was just curious 😭😭😭😭
haha hi!
my reasons are not deep or anything
the number one reason is just that I came across this photo one day and immediately my brain was like ‘THAT’S HIM’
their hair is so perfect haha
Tumblr media
so I tried to capture this kids vibe and then my design has kinda evolved a little over time haha (i think this was a candid photo from a chess comp so I don’t know the person)
but also it is a fairly common fan headcanon to cast James Potter’s side of the family as Indian! i think when the head canon originated it was to do with the family name working well as a common name, and spun off from there.
so you may come across the headcanon in a bunch of fanfics and a lot of other artists works if you look :)

I loved seeing your character layouts for Hazbin! Were there any other shots throughout season one that you’re especially proud of? And did you personally have a favorite episode?

i think ep 4 is obviously a super powerful ep and probably my fave? i think it has some of the strongest animation and performances! i’m a big huskerdust shipper so i love their bonding and their duet song!! i feel like sooo much love went into the animation on that ep and it looks amazing!
my other favourite parts of the series are the courtroom song in ep 6 and the finale song.

I absolutely adore your art style! Do you have any suggestions for improving proportions/positioning of facial feature or practicing expressions and/or poses? Your work is incredible!
hi, thank you!! this might be a bit all over the place haha but i will try and get my thoughts out
so disclaimer first since tracing and copying are controversial but i believe they can be used as an effective learning tool; please if you trace or copy do not then post that or claim it as your own, it’s just for practicing!
when i was younger if i liked an art style i would spend a lot of time just copying the drawings. i think copying from a variety of different styles and thinking about how they are stylising features in different ways can help you to figure out what elements you like and want to bring into your own art. i feel like most peoples art styles end up being a mixture of the different styles that influenced them, just try not to be 100% replicating any one artists work. also!! if you are using a reference try to identify the building blocks/shapes, for example with the head you can block out the circle shape of the skull, the centre line of the face, the eyeball shape etc, and use those basic shapes as a guide, a big part of the style depends on how these shapes are balanced. an example with me is that i didn’t like my chibi art much so i looked a lot at how astro boy is drawn as i find his face to have a cute balance. same with the body if you are referencing a photo for a pose i like to trace out a simple skeleton to help figure out how the body is posed under the clothing, and simplify clothes and hair into block shapes.
theres loads of amazing expressions in cartoons that are fun to imitate and think about what feature the artist has emphasised/ pushed.
if you feel like your work doesn’t have enough expression try pushing it a bit more extreme, act out the emotion physically and think about what features move, how you hold your body etc.
copying for practice can also help you notice if you are making recurring flaws with proportion by looking at how your version comes out compared to the original, such as if you often draw an eye too low, or limb the wrong length etc. of course if you are referencing other art they may also have unrealistic proportions so learning from photos or life drawing is also important.
life drawing and photo reference is always and amazing tool. if im trying to learn to draw an actor i will still approach it in this way, i usually trace a few photographs of them and then try to draw them in my own way, this can help to figure out their proportions and unique features. also when im having trouble with a pose i will trace a photo or multiple photos in similar pose, then using that as a reference will redraw in a simplified/stylised way.
i really believe in using references a lot, photos, 3d models, other art inspo! the more you practice the easier it will be to use reference without being too stiff or too close to copying the ref.
sorry if that was a jumble, i hope it is readable and some of it is helpful 💓💓

aaaaaAAA omg thank you for sharing!!!
i’m glad you felt inspired 💓💓💓💓😫🙏
your writing has a lovely atmosphere ❤️❤️❤️
seeds of beauty.
Inspired by @trashcanprince's 'Draco has moles' art, which completely rewired my brain. If I only write Draco with freckles and moles from now on, it's entirely that art's fault.
About 800 words of Harry kissing Draco's moles. That's it, that's the ficlet.
AO3 link
Harry blames it on the detention.
Potions was never his favourite class, but brewing potions in Snape’s dungeon as part of a two-hour detention has got to be a particularly cruel kind of torture.
Harry’s so bored his eyes keep wandering over to Malfoy, who’s sitting at the same desk as Harry, his long, pale neck outstretched to peer inside the bubbling cauldron in front of him. He waves his wand every so often above the gently simmering liquid, a muttered incantation on his lips.
The swotty bastard is so focused on his task, he’s not paying any attention to Harry. 
Harry swallows a twinge of annoyance. He’s raking his brain for something to needle Malfoy about—this indifferent, concentrated silence won’t do—when his gaze snags on a spot just above the top of Malfoy’s shirt collar.
There’s a mole there. 
Not even a mole. A freckle. 
A tiny, golden spot on Malfoy’s otherwise unblemished skin.
Harry holds his breath. Counts one, two… five such moles, dotting the back of Malfoy’s neck. There’s another one hiding behind Malfoy’s ear, half-concealed by the hair Malfoy tucks absentmindedly.
Harry holds his breath. He only notices he’s inched closer to Malfoy when he’s practically leaning over Malfoy’s back.
“Do you mind?” hisses Malfoy with a pointy elbow in Harry’s ribs. Harry sucks in a breath.
Holding his side, he meets Malfoy’s eyes over his shoulder. 
“I,” he starts. He places a hand on Malfoy’s arm—gentle, the touch light but firm enough to feel the warmth of Malfoy’s skin through his shirt, the hard muscle. 
Malfoy swallows.
“Can I—?” says Harry, leaning into him. 
“Potter…” Malfoy’s voice is thin and strangled.
“Let me,” says Harry. He nuzzles into Malfoy’s neck and mouths at the freckle.
Malfoy holds very still under Harry’s parted lips. He lets out the tiniest of whimpers as Harry’s tongue darts out to lick. Harry hears the sound through the mad thundering of his pulse in his ears.
Malfoy leans his head to the right, exposing the long column of his throat.
Dimly, as though he’s dreaming, Harry marvels at Malfoy’s unexpected compliance. Malfoy should be hexing him in the balls, not exposing his neck to Harry’s ministrations. Yet somehow it all makes sense, and Malfoy is as pliant, as soft, as a kitten held by the scruff of its neck.
Harry breathes against Malfoy’s skin. His exhale ruffles the downy hair on Malfoy’s nape. Malfoy shivers, gooseflesh breaking across his skin. Harry searches for the next mole—finds it in the soft dip of Malfoy’s neck. He closes his lips around it. Malfoy’s skin is so soft… It smells like something warm, clean, something that makes Harry’s insides feel swirling and tender. 
Harry’s never let himself consciously consider how soft Malfoy’s skin could be. But now that he’s touching him, he knows. He knows just how much he’s considered it. He has considered it a lot, every time he caught Malfoy showering after a Quidditch match, every time he helplessly looked as Malfoy rolled his shirt sleeves to perform a spell in Charms, every time Harry watched Pansy stroke Malfoy’s hair out of his face. 
Malfoy reaches up with a sigh, pulls on the knot of his tie to loosen it. When he undoes the top buttons of his shirt, letting the collar fall open over his collarbones, Harry wraps his hand around Malfoy’s throat with a low whine. Slides his hand underneath Malfoy’s shirt. Touches a raised nipple. Malfoy is leaning back into him now, panting, and Harry pushes Malfoy’s hair aside, kisses the last mole, the one hiding behind Malfoy’s ear.
With a growl, Malfoy turns his head around and captures Harry’s lips in a kiss.
Harry’s hands grip the back of Malfoy’s neck, his shoulders; Malfoy’s fingers thread in Harry’s hair and pull, pressing his whole body into Harry’s, all the long, hard lines of him, and Harry reaches for the remaining buttons on Malfoy’s shirt—
“Potter.”
Harry jolts back with a sharp inhale. Reality rushes back in—the damp, dark dungeon, the acrid, chemical smell of potions, the slow ticking of the clock on Snape’s desk.
Malfoy is glaring at him, sitting random straight two feet away. His tie is done in a perfect Windsor knot, tight against his throat. His hair is unruffled. 
His freckles unkissed.
Harry blinks.
“Merlin, what’s with the heavy breathing all of the sudden? It’s not enough that I’m stuck in detention with you, I can’t even brew my Dizziness Draught in peace.” Malfoy gives his head an irritated shake and turns back to his potion. “Bloody Gryffindors.”
Harry stares back at his cauldron, which now emits an ominous yellow smoke. Most definitely not a successful Dizziness Draught.
Merlin, what was that? Harry’s still catching his breath from the intensity of his daydream.
From the corner of his eye, he sees Malfoy run a hand over his nape. A slow flush is spreading over his pale skin.
His long fingers linger on the freckle behind his ear.
Thank you @sassy-cissa for pre-reading this even when you were tired and sick, and @nv-md for the beta and comments! <3

Being very self indulgent and collecting my Hazbin character layouts.
Here's a collection of my favorites from ep 1! If you don't know; character layouts involves drawing a single frame (or sometimes a couple of frames) for a shot placing the characters in according to the storyboard before the shot moves on to the animators. I'm blown away by the amazing storyboard artists, background artists, animators, colorists, compositors, etc that I had the pleasure to work with!! Seeing the finished product brought to life is amazing!
These ones shouldn't have much spoilers :)
I was given primarily Vaggie and Charlie shots for most of the series hehe!

Was so excited to draw a Huskerdust moment! I fell in love with these two straight away. I got to do multiple keyframes for this shot :)

And here's some of my Charlies <3

I hope you guys enjoy watching Hazbin, it was an absolute delight to work on!!
