Drawesome Monthly Check-In Post

Today's the last day of April, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you this past month?

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in April, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you currently trying to meet a deadline? Feel free to share upcoming challenges that have got you excited, any frustrations you've been experiencing, possible goals for the next month, and so on.

I didn't sign up for anything per se, but I did the Six Fanarts challenge and had a blast! (Jessica Jones, Hida Kuon from L5R, Angel from Angel, Appa from Avatar: The Last Airbender, Catlin from Cherryh's Cyteen, and Aral Vorkosigan from Bujold's Vorkosigan Saga).

Also experimenting with watercolor fanart of some kpop singers, not because I'm particularly into those fandoms but because it's a cheap way to practice rendering Korean faces. I'm Korean and it's very embarrassing that I don't really know how to draw Korean facial structures! And my mom used to send me kpop albums so I can use the photobooks as reference.

Rap Monster from BTS, Miyeon from (G)I-DLE, Jin from BTS (scroll down past the hexarchate art).

Also experimenting with work-safe pinups in Procreate on my iPad, Cheris in Command and Jedao Ungloved. No nudity or naughty bits, just mildly suggestive poses.

I know what you mean -- I feel weird sometimes about how few Black people I draw.

Also, the Six Fanarts sounds like an awesome meme. *contemplates*

Yep--I was raised on a steady diet of Western art. (Which is beautiful!) My mom (Korean) was so gung-ho when my 9th grade class did the Renaissance. AND YET. It wasn't until literally I was 40 years old that I started reading up on Korean art traditions (as research for a book).

I would love to see you do the Six Fanarts meme--your style is so charming, it would make for great visuals!

Not much, I am trying to draw some Guild Wars 2 comics and not getting anywhere. It's Mermay and I haven't drawn a single scale yet.
