Fun fact: Had to go to the toy store to look at plastic horses for head angle references.
Since I spent so much time on the head, the pose itself came out... boring? I mean, c'mon, how does one draw a "wizard-like gesture" with a hoof?
I think it came out great! And I can't wait for the matching Cthullu Dream Beach House!

It actually looks like she's prancing. I like it.

If this is a doodle, I wonder how awesome your full drawing will look.

B-but this was its final form? D:If this is a doodle, I wonder how awesome your full drawing will look.
So, I agree with what you said about the inked version. It's a bit wonky. That said, I think the Ari next to that one is quite nice. I'm rather fond of both her pose and her expression. I think you did quite nice on that one.The Pom drawings I made prior to that one had her angry, upset, and mad, so some balance had to be provided and I wanted something warm and fuzzy, hehe.
Since the doodle was this far along, I figured I'd share it before trying again from scratch...
I stopped on this Arizona because I disliked it more and more as I continued. How is the neck connected to the body? Why does her line of action not match what the lasso is doing? Why does she not look like the rough studies I made? (It's the head shape + the horns and ear placement from the eyes.)
All boring technicalities + the initial thumbnail (light blue) has a perspective thing going on with how large the lasso loop becomes in comparison to the body's size, which gets lost in the ink version. I also realized I didn't know to draw knots on traditional lassos. (A Honda knot was used.)
Fun Fact: Looked up comic covers of Wonder Woman to see how other artists integrated the shape of the lasso, but because Wonder Woman's a human and Arizona's a cow... references can only go so far before imagination has to do something.
Can a cow have a Sol Badguy-like expression? It's like a half-smirk, and one of the eyes is shaded so you can't see it, but Arizona doesn't have a cool headband! Or stoic Ryu... or would Oleander be the stoic Ryu? Ah, forget it, I'm overthinking.
Ah, thx, OC!
The new and improved version! I just realized the doodles I've been making have been inked at lowering resolutions between each piece. I should fix that.
On the plus side, I got the Sol Badguy expression I was aiming for. Grit those teeth! The foreshortening on this one came out odd, it's like the stomach disappeared completely...
The best part!What's that derpface on the bottom left?
Argh, I can't think of a good punchline, so the boring truth will have to do... The stickmen are thumbnails for the final pose I was looking for.Aaaaaah. And why are there stickmans boogieing around it?
I cheated a bit because I was looking at Picasso's Guernica at the time.The best part!
Cowcasso aside, for lack of better words I like how pointy she is. As well as how bold her outlines are.
They're called the stickmen cause instead of saying "reach for the skies" during a holdup they say "stick em up"Argh, I can't think of a good punchline... The stickmen....
Peronsonally, I rather like line art. Specifically, I really like seeing not only the process, but the other half-done and partial sketches as well.Would they be considered sticky-fingered because they steal from everyone?
It's been a few days since I posted in this thread, and I wondered if people want to see the linework underneath the more rendered versions of Overwatch crossovers pics.
I tend to copy 1 or 2 pieces of concept art as a warm-up to make sense of shapes before going at it.
Velvet's poofy coat threw me off because of Mercy (from Overwatch's) collar, which brings out the silhouette of the neck. I wanted something that was in-character, so that's why the collar's squishing the poofy coat, plus it helps reinforce the shape of Mercy's shoulder pad things in the concept art.
For Paprika, I originally wanted a pose where she's just milliseconds off of pouncing on someone to hug them, but I couldn't figure out a pose where it could showcase the Tracer costume and thought, instead of shooting guns, she's blowing kisses at a rapid rate? I lost my train of thought and the above pose was made instead, using a Tracer pose as reference, then modifying it to be more suitable for a 4-legged animal.
Well.. I... err... *ahem*, ehehehe, thank you, Cinnam.You are possibly my favorite TFH fan artist because of your style.
11/10 needs more smug.Well.. I... err... *ahem*, ehehehe, thank you, Cinnam.
My overall goal is to get it to where people can't tell the difference between me and the official stuff, buuuut my shaky hand and tendency to use thick lines gets in the way of that.
It's difficult to describe, it's like the inked version lost some of that fluffiness, but I am still ecstatic at how this one came out. It's an en pointe ballet pose with the ice sprite helping in Velvet's balance! Kudos if you can guess what her other two poses are referencing. (plagiarizing?) Hint: The theme is they can also create ice.
I'm pretty sure I'll guess wrong, so I won't even try.Well.. I... err... *ahem*, ehehehe, thank you, Cinnam.

I thought it as well at first, but no, he's just hanging on upside down, and the hole is for legs.Is that a hand warmer on the Ice Sprite's head?
Epic. Especially the little faceplant in the corner. I assume that's the end result of het ballet move?Well.. I... err... *ahem*, ehehehe, thank you, Cinnam.

But he can't be upside down, look at the placement of his mouth.he's just hanging on upside down, and the hole is for legs.
And Cinnam, Avering got it right with the hanging upside. The hand warmer is the bottom trim of the robe. In terms of poses, the scorpion handstand would be the thing that pose resembles closest.Is that a hand warmer on the Ice Sprite's head?
OBJECTION!In regards to the faceplant, it went something like this. "Yes, I've got it, you may go now." Then there was a *poof* followed by *splat*.

I've included a handy doodle to show it in the upper left corner of this picture.
I didn't look at the model sheet for the ice sprite at the time, which is why it's long like a prairie dog. To enforce the handstand, I should've angled the head down rather than up. The right-most is the re-iteration with these in mind, but it's still missing the line of action I want with the shortened length of the robe.
With Velvet's pose cropped like that though, something came to mind.
...She'd probably be a prosecutor too.
Close. It's Sub-Zero's pose from Mortal Kombat III. Those guys are, by default, the "get off my lawn" pose. Shao Khan being the worst offender because he thinks EVERYTHING is part of his lawn and NO ONE gets to be on it.But the bottom left corner Velvet looks like she's saying, "Ehhh, GET OFF MAAHH LAWN!!!!"
If Fred starts choking on the apple, she can do the heimlich maneuver on him. It's like you're hugging to save someone's life. Isn't that wonderful?Make her ram an apple down Fred's throat? Y'now, cus Fred can't into normal food shan't be an excuse for refusing.

I originally wanted to sprite a background as well, but I felt it would've taken way too much time considering the gag I wanted. The style is based off of the color limitations of old PC engine games and dating sims, hence the dithering and more anime-like expression.
This took longer than expected due to having to zoom in and correct pixels just to get the right curve. Shading the hair was difficult in trying to convey that sense of volume with the way the light shades are shaped.
