Experiments In Pen



I was watching a show with my younger brother and I had access to a sheet of paper, but no pencil. I did, however, have a blue pen and TLT on the mind, so I drew the upper set of characters.

Drawing faces is hard enough, but drawing exactly what's in your head is even harder. With characters, you can't exactly have a picture to look at so you have to get good at recognizing what features to change and tweak to get what you want. When drawing in pen, you can't erase, so you have to pay attention and know what you're doing. This exercise was really fun and you can tell I get better as I go on. I wasn't sure if I should post this or not, but then I did the second set and it was cool. And for those of you who don't draw, it's an interesting concept.

Because neither of them are accurate.

I posted descriptions of us in TLT

*raises eyebrow* You really think I'm gonna draw you guys like that?

Ax, you're on the right. I kinda rusted up your hair, 'cause I changed the style halfway through.

Ark is like some sorceror boi and I'm a short, shirtless, muscular Viking with long hair. 

Intriguing. 

*whispers* Ark has curly hair.

That's actually what I thought at first, but it didn't fit his personalty so I just went for it. I like how mischievous Ark looks. Besides, I don't see you drawing yourselves. Be grateful.

What? No, I know what he actually looks like, but his Hoidsona is different.
