  1. Well, folks. We made it. Day 31, Crawl, featuring Star and her youngest daughter. I got a great progression for this one. I'll be honest, I was really happy with this and then I sent it to a friend and I know he wasn't trying to be mean, but he critiqued it and it really hurt so I have a hard time seeing good things about this drawing. All I can see is that Star's eyes are way too far apart, both her and Pearl's hair are too dark, her eyes are too big, her arm is a little wonky, her lips are too small, and her nose is too round. But that's just no good to focus on that. My favorite thing about this drawing... nearly eclipses all of that. The color. I didn't start coloring my drawings until just, what, 8 months ago? It is ridiculous how much that adds to my art. I don't think I can possibly express to all of you what my art journey has been like this last year. The amount of progress I've made is mind blowing and I just wish that I could go back in time to my 11 year old self so that I could show her all the wonderful things she would accomplish. Since COVID started I've had cycles of depression and my anxiety has gotten much worse, to the point that I'm having one or two panic attacks every week. My art has helped keep me going. Guys, this time in history sucks. But I think that when I look back at this in another 4 years, it will be in fondness. Shards, I am crying. I told y'all I was gonna cry when I wrote this, I knew it would happen. Anyway, I hope my art has been a bright spot for you you guys during this crappy time. I know a lot of people are scared of Inktober because of artistic burn out, but for me, the art really, really keeps me going. It helps that I have people who are eager to see that art that I make. So thank you, everyone. All my love. - Shard of Thought
  2. I'll be honest, I didn't put much thought into this one, for Ominous. It was, I think, the last prompt idea that I came up with, so I just wasn't invested in it. The gesture is miles better It's Sierra, with X-6574. For those following Keyed, she's one of the children X-6574 is sent to find. She's holding his hand, I don't know if you can tell that, but that was what I intended. For as meh as this turned out though, I can promise that tomorrow, I will finish out Inktober with a bang. Also. Today we must say goodbye to my beloved grey marker. It's had a good life and it will be missed. You can really tell how much I was struggling to get out the ink on this drawing, her dress is so choppy.
  3. So, I'm approaching my 6000th post and I had an idea. 

    Y'all, I don't draw enough Sanderfan art. I remember looking at art for some book fandom 3 or 4 years ago and thinking, "Dang. I wish with all my heart I could draw art for these books." And now... I can. I've gotten good. If someone would have shown me my Inktober thread from this year a year ago, I would have started crying. And considering I have this ability to add art to this wonderful community of Sander-lovers, I think that for my 6,000th post, I should draw a cosmere character or two. 

    The question is who?

    Now, I'm biased; I love, love, love Mistborn, and Kelsier and Marsh are my go-tos. But I also really love Ruin and Preservation, it would be super cool to do art for them. Would Szeth look good in my style? Sarene? Vasher maybe? Who knows. But I wanna know what y'all wanna see. :D

      Szeth Szeth Szeth! Do him!

      Ooh, maybe Vin? Except everyone does Vin.

      Do the flower paper!!!

  4. Probably not a good idea, Luna. He might bite off your fingers.
  5. But no blood, surprisingly. Puppets approved cruelty-free torture.
  6. And had truly learned the secrets of the puppet world.
  7. So another movie was made of them fighting. Them being the movie producers.
  8. Day 29, one of my most anticipated prompts: Shoes. This drawing features @Jaywalk's character of the same name, with Bozo the Voidrabbit. I really don't draw Jay enough, he's such a great character. The idea to have him be wearing bunny slippers is simply inspired and I am so, so, so glad I got the excuse to do it. It's funny, yesterday I said that I didn't want to do a full body drawing because the paper wan't big enough. And today I did a fully body drawing and barely fit it on the paper. Also, bunny drawing! It is exceptionally rare for me to draw animals and considering that, I am super happy with how Bozo looks. Never actually drawn him or Havel before, which... is honestly kinda sad. I'm super happy with how this turned out, it is some of my very best work. Oh, and the mug he's holding. It says, "SNARK: One of the many services I offer." I had like three other different phrases I could have used, (Including, "Silence is goldren, duct tape is silver," "It's never too early for sarcasm," and "Please cancel my subscription to your issues.") but this one just fit the best. I love sarcastic mugs, they are lovely and so so so Jay. The mug is also filled with liquid energy, a reference to this moment from CBST. One thing I was kind of unhappy about was the fact that the purple doesn't quite show up as well as I wanted it to. His eyes are purple and the liquid in the mug is purple too, but they just kinda look black. Oh, well, I guess. And here's the progression, this one looks super cool. I feel kinda bad, Bozo's scar didn't show up as well as I'd hoped.
  9. Fun fact: in 8th grade Civics, we had a project where we stranded on an island and had to create a society. My partner and I decided to make a society that was completely llama based. It was called Lland'o'Llamaz and it was majestic.
  10. Day 28: Float, featuring Granite, Star's only son and full fledged Mistborn. My original idea for this was that he was going to be floating over a coin but... I draw my Inktober stuff on pieces of paper less than half the size I'm used to working with so a full body would be super tiny for me. I can't believe I didn't notice that his left eye is bigger than it should be! That will never not bother me. But I can fix that on my own copy of the drawing, which is really nice. I didn't even try for Granite's left hand, the rest of the drawing was too great to be spoiled by a stubborn appendage. I love how the coin and the mistcloak look shiny, I love that the pin of his mistcloak is homage to his dear mother, I love his eyebrows and how even though he has wicked cheekbones, he still looks young. I love how much he looks like little Kelsier, I love his beautiful right hand. I just love it. I also posted this one to the gallery last night because... mistborn, y'all. Mistborn is great, I'm here for the mistborn. Granite is so wholesome, you guys, I love him to death and I need more of him in my life. I just don't have enough opportunities to write him. I'm glad all four of Star's children (adopted or otherwise) have made an appearance this year. Only Heather got drawn last year and while she is extremely important, Star loves all her children equally. Or does she? @BringerofShadows I hope Granite is a suitable replacement for Ember. Whaddya say, will that sly gaze pierce the Inquisitor's heart of stone? I totally forgot to snap a picture of the inked version! Though, to be fair, it didn't look much different at all from the drawing before the finished product. Not a super cool progression. But the gesture is absolutely adorable.
  11. It wasn't long before he became a McDonald's happy meal toy.
  12. His new status came with a new, Disco Mime uniform.
  13. And it was flippin' awesome. He was promptly promoted by Silence himself.
