Joltober2024 Day Thirteen - Knife!

The speed paint is up!

*hhheeerrree's Ballora!

More under the cut >:)

This was a bit of experimentation I did over a couple days in lectures -- it was a lot of fun, and I like how it turned out! As with previous Balloras of mine, I had no reference, but I had determination. There ended up being several versions:

Pure Lineart [Black & White]

I just think it looks rather neat :D

Fully Coloured & Shaded

This is where things diverted a little from my initial... vision. Which wasn't much, just that I was considering leaving it with flat, much paler colours. I didn't even attempt that though, sadly (I had too much fun with the saturated colours). Some other day.

Static! Yay!

Inkeeping with classic fnaf fanart tradition, you have to try adding static at least once.

Sister Location camera screens???

I made this one purely out of self-indulgence and curiosity. It did not work. But hey, at least I spent fifteen minutes tediously removing all the text and map from a random image I found :D

Timelapse! (it be small, sorry)

(I will likely make an actual video at some point for this)

Details

Not sure how long this one took - 4-5 hours at most.

Software was ClipStudioPaint

And yes, I broke her arms because I didn't want to draw them. :)

Have a great day!

Joltober2024 day one -- ghost!

*made a little mushroom business ghostie :D

[uni tips, I guess] An essay/paper writing thing I find useful:

When writing an assignment such as an essay where it’s basically all words, I sometimes like to figure out how many sentences I need instead of going by the word count (initially, at least). For example:

Say the word count is 1500 — ouch, my brain says, that looks painful. No thanks — and the standard sentence length is about 25 words.

You go like 1500/25 = 60, and bam: you need 60 sentences.

Once you’ve got the first draft down, then you can rein it in according to the word count.

For whatever reason, my brain prefers this to working to a word count. It feels less intimidating, I can keep easy track of it and it also helps me plan my arguments a bit better.

I hope you might find this helpful — either way, it works for me and my audhd ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
