Oh ho, haven't seen this one yet! Very nice. And yeah, size is a little limited here since it's just a basic forum. Feel free to link out to higher rez versions as well if you like.

Nice! Thanks for the heads up: I knew this was coming, but I don't follow people on X and he didn't post in on FA, so I would have missed this otherwise. Really neat to see.

Weird, this one doesn't work for me but the other one does 

Aw, love it! Hey, you should see what my stuff looked when I first started trying to draw. It's not ALL about persistence, talent sure helps, but you gain a LOT by just doing, over and over. But I'll say what I always do: making something takes time and effort, and if anyone feels strongly enough about my stuff that it makes them want to make something, I'm honored. Now in terms of development, only you can say whether you want to go after drawing specifically; I recently turned down a nice guitar because I just didn't have the time to get into music. But if you do want to, I'd definitely encourage it. Speaking as someone who's definitely NOT talented, it's a lot of work, it's a struggle, but man is it satisfying when a little something comes together and you go "wow, I drew that?"

May I ask what training? Something to help with the condition?

Everyone starts somewhere.  and hey.  A philosophy I have is, if you can recognize who the character is in fanart, then it's good fanart

I recently got my tablet, and I attempted some more fanart, specifically of Mahir in a specific scene. As you can see, my lines are still incredibly unstable. Also, yes, Mahir is merely a floating head in this one, as I find bodies and clothing still somewhat difficult to draw.

Got some more practice in, although this one took me a while due to various factors of life. I still haven't graduated beyond headshots, really, but I'm working my way up the comfort ladder. Also, I didn't know if he had piercings on both ears, so I apologize if this is inaccurate.

PS: He's supposed to look uneasy/tense.

EDIT: Damn it, I forgot his freckles; also, I like adding whiskers.

Aw, these are great! I think I remember you saying you were going to work on some cocktails, cool to see they actually came to fruition! I uh...don't drink, hilariously, so I can't really speak to the taste, but I do like the idea. Some other fans will have to weight in on whether they actually like the combos. I do love the presentation though, and wow, Midori comes in a really pretty bottle.

And yeah, in-setting MOST places wouldn't be this fancy, but the host club would absolutely serve this kind of stuff (Am I contradicting what I said earlier?) the hyenas are good for it. If they haven't lost it all gambling. Mezz gets blitzed quickly, but that's only partially because it's strong and partially because he's a light weight (I mean he's only what, four feet tall?)

Nice! Something about the shading I really enjoy on this one.

Oh, it was just a WIP! Not bad, not bad at all.

Ugh... I would love for something like that to happen in the game hehe...

Ha, nice! Love the expressions, and the pixel-y style is really fun. Gotta give the guys more arm to work with though, so they can properly brace themselves! But I sympathize, foreshortening is hard.

I'm not really a savior-complex fan, either, but that is so cute! I especially like the second one, as I almost imagine him saying, "Yeah, yeah, thanks for helping me in that fight. You can... stop petting me anytime."

doing some google image searches from feeding this in, it looks like the artist may be https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/daigaijin/

Also within the search, here's some more fanart, but on the bluesky side of things.  https://bsky.app/profile/unidedtypingobject.bsky.social/post/3koypmlxcaa2x

They look not bad, but it seems these two art are generated by AI🤔. Feel free to correct me.

Finish it! Ha, you don't HAVE to, but it's a good first attempt. My stuff was pretty horrifying (in a bad way) when I started. If you do decide to get into drawing, I recommend starting with just simple busts, neck head face. There's enough there to have a lot of fun with, but it's simple enough that it doesn't get overwhelming. 

Also what did you do to your other post!? I had a reply ready, and then it disappeared.

Aw, this is super cute, thanks! Huh, never heard of Fear and Hunger before, may have to give it a try eventually.

I am actually digging this so much ^w^ fits the theme of CS imo and really cute

Oh ho, very nice. Like his expression too.

Pfft. These are pretty great. Now I want a crispy-brown gingerbread version too though.

Mezz Shrinky Dink

Those are some BIG eyes. Love the feel of it.

I'm really happy a number of people have been inspired to start messing around with drawing due to the game. Because after all, it's fun, but it's a game. You have your fun, you come and go. But if you get the drawing bug, and keep tumbling down that hole, that can be a lifelong benefit. Maybe even a money maker at some point!

I like the scritchy scratchy texture on this too, feels very "illustration".

Neat kinda flow to it. Reminds me of those old Sonic illustrations from the Adventure era. Also this has to be the least menacing Mahir has ever looked. "Oh we're best buddies, nothing nefarious here!"

Have you found a bit of a muse here Salty? Not that I'm complaining :D.

You could draw this on a Shrinky Dink and make a real Mezz keychain.

Nice. I like the kind of floating implied by the feet. ASCEND.
