I FINALLY finished a very old drawing of my two kiddos Silence and Theo. It's literal shit and I'm not very proud of it but it's OC content and you know what imma put it here.
[Image Description: A picture of a traditional drawing made with inking pens and coloured pencils. It is a drawing of a living room with yellow-brown walls, grey carpeted floors, a tall bronze floor lamp with a green shade, a nonbinary flag hanging from the wall, a bowl of popcorn on the floor, and a light green couch. Two people are asleep on the couch, cuddling up to each other using an emerald green pillow and an olive green blanket. The person on top is a man with dark skin and fluffy teal hair. He is wearing a black hoodie. He is lying on top of a person with olive skin and vitiligo. The person has long brown hair and is wearing a red and black plaid flannel. The two people have their arms wrapped around each other as they sleep on the couch. End of Image Description.]
So basically, it sucks. Badly.
It's supposed to be a drawing of them sleeping on the couch after movie night because they're cuddly dorks but uh. The idea did not execute well.
Don't get me wrong-- there are a lot of good aspects to this piece. I managed to capture the overall vibe of Silence's house: old and sad with very few personal touches (aka the non-binary flag on the wall. And even though it doesn't show up very well in the photograph I took I think I did a decent job with their physical appearances and consistency with that. Silence's vitiligo is in the same place, the flannel is just right, and I've mastered the art of coloring Theo's hair. Everything else is absolute shit though and I hate it. I hope one day, when I'm much better, I'll redraw this and the execution will be loads better.
Until then, this will be like some of my art from last year: terrible, but still full of learning moments.
