I haven’t drawn in a month can you tell
(I’m doing boards for a scene our group needed to rework)

oh
related to the “Emily’s gon draw shit”
here is some of the stuff I drew over the weekend
now I just have to draw it all again only in a consistent sharper/unevenish style (think Paranorman/Nightmare Before Christmas only not quite that sharp)
and then draw some more things like desks and wall paintings and posters
I’m kind of excited though because one of the seniors was like “Hey Emily when we have style down can you (and the senior lead) do orthos for everything so the modelers know what the fuck they’re modeling?”
and I was like
sure okay I like the design side can do so does that mean I can skip rigging?
critiques continue to go poorly
but I got “well-rendered” from my prof on these two concepts
I don’t know whether to be happy for the compliment or sad because no one else appeared to give a damn about trying to figure out the look of our animation…
This is what I have for concept stuff. I don’t know how to make a desk messy.
The problem I see with our big groups is that everything the not-seniors do is going to get chucked out a window because the seniors are the leads and call the shots. Which makes sense, I guess, but it makes me unenthusiastic.
Okay I have context clues now
but then hold the fuck up it only said “sometimes” has context clues
so fuck everything
I’m going to draw a desk cluttered with shit tomorrow and then just use the second damn picture
fuck
It’s weird to me that in all my life, I’ve never had an art class where the prof rumpled up a sheet and said “draw that.”
~le basics~
…Chuckles? Chuck, come home.
Bluandorange livestreamed earlier today and while she was drawing we also listened to Beauty and the Beast, and I thought it would be a great idea to do a picture with Chuck as Beast and Mike as Belle.
Only then I got to thinking about it and Chuck really wouldn’t be callous and arrogant like Beast in the beginning—it’s not his nature as we know him now. Also the only person we know of in Motorcity with anything close to a castle is the Duke.
Then I started thinking about Kaia and the Terras, and so I decided that Chuck got doused with a new toxin somewhere along the line and kinda went Hercules on the Burners, and when the toxin finally clears his system, he sees them all lying there and thinks he’s killed them, but he doesn’t remember attacking them. And they’re his family, and he’s horrified, so he does the only thing he can: he runs.
But the Terras aren’t really all that fond of the Burners, and while the toxin’s side effects might be gone, the physical aspects are permanent. It’s not like he can seek refuge with the Terras either, but he definitely can’t stay in Motorcity, so what choice does he have? So he tries, and is violently rejected, and loses an arm in his escape.
Eventually he finds a place on the very outskirts of Terra territory, far enough away that they won’t go after him, and far from the city where he became the monster that destroyed everything he loved.
But the Burners didn’t die. They were banged up pretty good, but Jacob fixed them up, and when they can they spend all their time looking for Chuck, only it’s been ages and they’re scared that he’s gone for good, and one by one, they quietly try to move on.
Mike can’t. Chuckles was…is his best friend, he can’t give up. So he keeps searching further and further, until one day he’s at the far reaches of the boonies and he sees Chuck, and it’s like he’s back from the dead.
TL;DR — I spawned myself a Terra!AU that has nothing to do with Beauty and the Beast.
The penguin shirt really is awesome. I also just realized that despite the fact that I don’t do contacts, I don’t draw myself wearing glasses. Oops.
