I decided to try drawing a shoe! I decided to name it "her sickness." I was inspired by the 3d models of the shoes by @/petliger on IG. I really love the dark reds they've used, and I wanted to try and replicate that with kind of a goo-esque substance.
And below, I drew my oc, Roulaide, wearing an adjusted version of her sickness shoes. This version is just elongated to fit her better.
Y'all can draw your OC in this or stuff 👉🏻👈🏻
I was playing around with the idea of a robotic jester
That maybe has a stolen soul inside of it?
I really wish I could stay hyperfixated on things for more than like, 2 days. Like I want to actively participate in the sharkboy and lavagirl fandom (I just watched the movie for the first time) but I STARTED RE-READING KEEPER OF THE LOST CITIES AND I NEED TO MAKE 5 ANIMATIONS YESTERDAY (I've started, but I just found my hero academia AMVs and THESE ARE SO AWESOME)
I made matching Malevolent computer backgrounds for me and my partner
My partner suggested I give Arthur a french mustache so it turned into this
figured i should start sharing my art on here
Went on etsy to find earplug earrings because I'm going to my first concert! (and I have sensory issues)
And I found these earrings that remind me of Helen!!! Got the spirals and everything
Here's the link
And of course I got them because OF COURSE I GOT THEM
bringing this tiktok trend to the tma fandom

Okay I have a legitimate request for advice/help???
So yesterday I had an idea for an animation for song that's like 2 minutes 20 seconds long
Anyone who animates knows that's a relatively long animation for an amateur artist
Anyway
Yesterday I like REALLY hyperfixated on this animation
This happens to me sometimes when I'm drawing
I have an idea and I HAVE to draw it, I can't draw anything else or take breaks other than quick stops for the bathroom or to eat something
And it's usually easily manageable because the drawings only take a few hours or something
But like
Okay this was pretty intense. I spent all of yesterday pretty much animating the whole thing
A lot of it is still very sketch-like
And I want to color it
And I'm struggling. The problem is that I really want to finish this animation enough to show people/enough that I'm satisfied. I just want to be done!
But like, I'm EXHAUSTED. I didn't get much sleep for hyperfixating on this, I am actually already sick, and I'm also having really bad period cramps.
It feels like the easy answer should be just take a break, right?
WRONG.
I CANNOT sleep, I CANNOT sit still, I CANNOT function I need to work on this. Trust me, if I could sleep or work on another project I WOULD. But like I can't even focus, all I do is think about how much work I need to do and what things to fix and -oh I need to draw another frame for this one scene,,,
I would really appreciate ANY advice, ANY recommendations, PLEASE send help I'm dying here
