hard 2 draw (but ooh "new" character that had been sitting in poopbath with poopbob for a while) #oc #sketch #oc-art #blackboard #angel #chunky #no-ai #joshfantasy
"New" character Lucy, she is an angel. Don't have her colors established yet, but I think she'll have a generally yellow color palette. (Don't laugh at my scrungly anatomy. Shoo. She's hard to draw. Especially her face and neck. Actually if anyone has tips on how to draw that part better, I'd like to hear it.) Alternative image of the art I made on the blackboard that day. To her left, I wrote the lyrics to the final chorus in Something Heavy by Jacob Collier: "And in my mind, I throw your arms around me; I find a way to bring you back to life; and all this time, I never let you love me, but I know; I know it's time to let you go now..." To her right, I write the Bible verse excerpt used in Sungazer's song Cytherean: "unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again."

Technically vent art. A rendered ... creature with black liquid drifting out of its eyesockets. It states, "How do you do." Surrounding it are math notes lol. Alternative picture of the Shadow chalkboard doodle from the other post. Above Shad is a boom symbol and the word "bitch" underlined. To the left are squiggles other people drew; one of a cat's face, and two smileys, one much larger than the other. In between the cat and Shad is a very crude attempt at the sparkling heart emoji. Don't know when it was erased exactly. Worm creature with the word "kiss" as its face, blushing. Professor was talking about tips for writing good essays; he wrote the acronym kiss (Keep It Simple, Stupid) on the board and circled it. I noticed that the circle broke, and it sorta looked like a chin line. So I filled in the gaps. (Also another crude attempt at a sparkling heart emoji.) Professor spared him. Creature from earlier today. Rendered, lazy-eyed thing with incredibly irregular lips. Intended to be sort of moody, like the other rendered creature. Not really vent art this time though.

Shadow is looking down into the white void and smiling. Her hands lie between her thighs as she sits on an unfinished chair. 1st time using iBIS Paint X. Didn't know how to select stuff yet. Her neck is very, very long lol. Her face and body came out pretty nice though. I still don't really know how to use this program; learning as I go. A second concept art for Shadow's phase 3 wings. I will most likely keep the color palette used in my earlier work and apply it to these. Vaguely based on moth wings (didn't use reference; not very original, @irko knows a thing or two about the thangs.) They'll be functional now ... Shadow walking forward in felicity. Visibly noted is my frustration with her left leg and the draft number (2). I still don't know what I'm doing. I plan on finishing this one. Working at it slowly as to not kill my desire to draw again. Quick chalkboard drawing I did after the professor left the classroom. Text reads "JF was here" as Shadow stares at the viewer. Broad, confidently imperfect lines are employed here. I like it.

shitty first drafts .png
#sketch #first-draft #oc #drawing #wip #joshfantasy
A messy sketch of my character Shadow sitting. Her right leg is compressed against her torso by her arm, and her left leg is slightly stretched out. The lines in the background are an attempt at perspective. (I need to move her right shoulder forward; that'd allow her arm to wrap around her leg easier, hopefully improving the pose.)

Doorable's character Kabi is lunging at an unknown target. An early-on sketch of the pose's skeleton is shown at a low opacity in the background. The URL to the pose used is shown: https://www.deviantart.com/adorkastock/art/Never-Surrender-Pose-Reference-For-Drawing-501705616. The shading is imperfect but I'm pretty proud of this one.

Three characters---Diegriv's Tellita, Mirza's Hazel Winters, and my Blobibinough are placed inside the album cover of We Don't Trust You by Future and Metro Boomin. Hazel Winters replaces Future, Blobibinough replaces Metro (he volunteered to play as Metro in place of another character due to Metro's current sexual assault allegations), and Tellita jumps in between the two and flips off the camera.

some more doodles in my notes (just as a treat. i guess)
#doodle #doodles #physical-art #math #sketch #pencil #sketchy #phys-art #oc #oc-art #notebook #joshfantasy
A doodle in my Science notes of Shadow (♀️) taking a step. I was practicing her shape language and also wanted to know how her legs would actually work; I've only so far drawn her standing idly. Another doodle in my Science notes (hello Earth tilt). She's looking at ya pretty intently there; pupils dilated and everything. Most of her face is cut off by the end of the page, which felt fitting; she's pretty gremlin like that with Alex. Two sketches in my Math notes. The Minecraft-ahh lady is what I saw in the net of a triangular prism (very beefy legs 🍗), and the little guy at the bottom is what I saw in the net of a cylinder. The surface area of a prism is the area of its two bases (so 2B; ∆'s area formula is ½bh, where 'b' is the length of the base side and 'h' is the length of its height. Since there are two bases, 2(½bh) = bh) plus the areas of its lateral (connecting) rectangles (so just bh2, but for every lateral face). That leaves you with 2B + (s1h2 + s2h2 + s3h2), or 2B + h2(s1 + s2 + s3). Since every 's' must be equal to the dimensions of the base side lengths (or else your prism would be dumb and not a prism), s1 + s2 + s3 = the PERIMETER of the base = 'P', thus the formulas SA = 2B + Ph and LA (lateral surface area) = Ph. A cylinder is simply a circular prism, so to get its formula for surface area, you'd start with 2B + Ph. Substitute in the area and perimeter of the circular bases, you get SA = 2(πr²) + (2πr)h, which minus the very deletable parenthesis, is the formal formula. I like to simplify stuff though, so what I do is I factor out 2πr from every term, leaving us with SA = 2πr(r + h), with the formula for the lateral surface area just being 2πrh. Another page from my math notes, this time about circumscribing stuff. The first circumscribed triangle seems very contemplative and childish---very Hermione-core expression (if you know my Art Fight page, you know I'm not referring to Harry Potter here). The circumscribed quadrilateral is a cracked eye with an accompanying grimacing mouth cut off by the circle; the expression tells me the character I'm peeking at has snapped in sanity. The circumcenter of a triangle (where all perpendicular lines bisecting the sides overlap) is the center of the circle where each vertice of the triangle touches a point on the circle. Each vertice of the triangle is EQUIDISTANT from the circumcenter. Not every quadrilateral can be circumscribed, but a common trait among the infinite number of quadrilaterals that *can* exists: its opposite angle measures must be supplementary (i.e. sum up to 180°). An interesting byproduct of this rule means that the only type of parallelogram that may be circumscribed is a rectangle.

A cropped version of the drawing I posted yesterday featuring more character info and busts (is a neck-up drawing a bust?). This was the original compositional plan; I only decided to make it a full-body when I wanted to know how the thighs would look. Another alternative version of yesterday's work with no shading (you can snatch the color palette if you want :s). Shadow is nude in this one to better reveal her angel spots.

My OCs together in bed. This time they are just longingly gazing into each other's eyes. They have stick arms because I don't like drawing arms, especially under pressure. I like how I drew Shad's face though. Happy Valentine's Day 💥

#wip #romance #lick #love #sketch #digital #art #oc #ocs #joshfantasy #lineart
A badly-cropped draft of my two OCs embracing each other (a LOT of space on the sides; aren't you excited for me to fix that issue?). I should explain who the human is since I don't even have them on my Art Fight page yet: their name is Alex, they go by they/them, they are well-adjusted for the most part, and they direct Shadow towards self-discovery, self-love, and learning to trust. I don't think it's the perfect gauge, but they would be a Sisterly villager in Animal Crossing, as opposed to ... the Lazy personality, I guess? Anyway they're getting slobbered on. Once again, maybe I should look away. Maybe you should too. Freak. :p

another doodle; I drew this one in honor of the end of the math notebook I've been using since 2022; a lot of art history in it that I may look back on one day and reminisce (for I am a very sentimental man)
#doodle #doodles #sketch #physical-art #art #ball #hands #joshfantasy
A goodbye doodle to my math notebook. An agonizing ball with a mouth on its forehead spewing blood is flying past the viewer to the left, its trail turning into a hand with lightning bolts etched into the thumb. Below it is a vague landscape: right-to-left contains a stick figure with a baseball bat, a cartoon tree with a leaf flying away, a pond that is a shocked eye, an irregular patch on the land's cheek, a hand peeking out of the implied mouth of the hill, and a statue head looking up at the ball. There is also text that reads "goodbye, maths notebook of 2022-2025". Technically, I have a few pages left in it that I will use for scratch paper, but yeah.

really, really old collab that I did with @irkomatose.bsky.social that I rediscovered in my maths notebook
#pikmin #pikmin4 #sketch #doodle #doodles #collab #collaboration #joshfantasy #irko #zoi
An array of Pikmin sketches. Starting in the top left going clockwise, there is: A polite red pikmin is sitting thinking about something that I can't identify. A blue pikmin named IRL Bubbles blowing bubbles with accompanying text "smthn about the legs is weird but idk what it is". A cursed scientific abomination named Jim speaking "Olimar" (with accompanied text "no euphemism ..." and an arrow pointing at its stem). We attempted to apply every known Pikmin 3 attribute onto one creature. An accidentally phallic line with irko annotating "🤨". A scribbled blue pikmin named bob. I do not remember who drew him. A scribbled Olimar throwing a rope (I do not believe they were originally connected), drawn by irko. A sketched red pikmin alerted by something, mayhaps the whistle, also drawn by irko. Miscellaneous scribbles.

so my wip drawing is . not done yet . I take too long to draw.
so here's some doodles in the meantime ig (pt 2)
#doodles #doodle #joshfantasy #sketch #sketches #boredom #math #mathematics #notes
Diagram drawn for my math notes. Note #A contains circle A, a relaxed Pac-lady, with wind carrying a stray leaf around her. Note #B may be interpreted how you wish, but the highlighted circle is circumscribed by tangents CE and CD. Hehe. Note #A: Tangents are always perpendicular to the radius that they intersect; radius AB and tangent CB will always have negative reciprocal slopes to each other since they both share point B on her circumference. Note #B: Assuming two interlocked tangents (at point C) nick circle A (a different circle A lol) at points D and E, radii AD and AE form central angle DAE, which is always supplementary to the circumscribed angle DCE. Furthermore, because intersecting radii and tangents are always perpendicular to each other, radii AD and AE join with tangents CD and CE to form a quadrilateral kite ADCE, and due to ADCE being a kite, it can be split down the implied segment CA into two right triangles ADC and AEC. Diagram #2 for my math notes. Circle O is a whincing devil with a facemask on, a falling rose and song title "À Noite" (by Jacob Collier) accompanying him. He contains intersecting chords AB and CD, which meet at point E and form vertical angles AED & CEB and CEA & BED. The measure of angle AED is equal to the sum of arc measures CD and AD divided by 2, and the product of segments AE and EB equals the product of CE and ED; in other words, the two resulting segments of AB multiplied together are the same as the two resulting segments of CD multiplied together. Not sure why, though. My arms are getting tired, and this doodle is uninteresting, so I'm gonna just skip it.

so here's some doodles in the meantime ig
#doodles #doodle #joshfantasy #sketch #sketches #boredom #math #mathematics #notes
Diagram drawn for my math notes. Circle A contains a bird-like creature head made up of chords DB, DC, and implied BC, and radii AB and AC. Angle measure BAC (the central angle; represented by alpha symbol) is always twice the angle measure of BDC (the inscribed angle), assuming the arc BC is the highlighted arc for both. Diagram #2 for my math notes. For note #F, the circle O contains a trapped Irken being rolled to an unknown destination. They appear to be in peril, wondering when or if they will ever slow down or escape. For note #G, a circular devil is being threatened by a wavy knife. Note #F: Since chords AB and CD are congruent, segments OF and OE are congruent, and arcs AB and CD are congruent. If someone could explain what "CONGRUENT CHORDS are EQUIDISTANT from central and intercept congruent ARCS" means, I would appreciate it, as I don't remember. Note #G: All chords are bisected by perpendicular diameters; diameter CD bisects chord AB at point M, resulting in segments AM and MB having the same length. The converse of this is true as well; if AM and MB are the same length and CD is perpendicular, you know CD is a diameter. Scratch paper excerpt. On the left is a sloppily-sketched human broken down into basic shapes and lines. The lyric "all legs, no dary" from Legs - RuPaul's Drag Race is written above the figure's head. A sketch of a disembodied leg is also present. This is probably the least interesting one so far. Diagram #3 for my math notes. I will ignore note #J as it's not particularly interesting. Note #I depicts two eyes being lacerated by secants; circle BDE by line BD, and circle GFH by lines GF and HF. For circle BDE, the angle formed from the interaction of secant BD and tangent AC results in two supplementary angles DBC and DBA, their angle measures always equalling half the measure of arcs DB and DEB, respectively. For circle GFH, the interaction of the two secants GF and HF (both intersecting at point F) results in angle GFH, its angle measure always equalling half the measure of highlighted arc GH.

this took a while (mostly due to her pattern as I couldn't figure out a way to do it quickly; it probably made it better tho)
My OC Shadow, the character I've posted prior, in her stage 3 design. She's too damn powerful now. She may even be proud of herself. Her skin is a bright blue with wavy ribbons and spirals in an attempt to mimic a blue star. Her wings are a powerful orange color, with whirlwinds of their own in the "eyes" (not intended for flying). An alternative version of the same drawing; this one doesn't have leg glow, so it may be less messy.

A man with an unknown entity fused with his back. The being is metaphysical and seemingly chipper, waving at us, while the man is evidently in peril. The creature is inconsiderate, though it appears to be oblivious to the harm it's causing. The background is a mix of bright colors, sky blues for the border and fiery orange and red in the center.
