12.12.20 ★ 2k art contest entry! ★ ahh congrats on 2k!! i decided to enter because i am so obsessed with this song haha :') hopefully this entry looks okay,, i spent a few hours for a few days on this? it was a lot of work and i'm glad i got it done. by the time i got to the background i was dead so that's why it looks sketchy. ★ press green flag twice to make it less laggy, then just watch! that choppy coding you see if by me. space to see process, then click to see the short process cause i forgot to show every step lol. on the main art, press and hold to zoom in (code by @colorsnatch) ★ art process 1. traditional sketch 2. digital lineart 3. simple coloring 4. (didn't show this but what i actually did) alter colors, shading. 5. (didn't show this but what i actually did) color lineart, fix small issues 6. add different colored layer on top, neon colors for effects, side add-ons // ★ this song's connection is kind of obvious, but recently, through the pandemic and school things have been super stressful and, overwhelming. my homework seems to get the best of me and assignments are late all the time, probably because i'm not really paying attention 100% of the time. sometimes i try to hide how hard everything is and i often start panicking when i look at the time and see how much i've been on scratch instead of working on math homework, etc. honestly i believe that this song can relate to a lot of people during these past few months and drawing this piece was almost calming and stressful at the same time when things starting coming together. ★ good luck to anyone who entered! i spent 4+ hours in total on this so give me a break :"0 i'd really appreciate a critique! it won't hurt my feelings i need to know THE FLAWS ★ !! notice !! i did not copy, trace, steal, or completely reference anything. all art 100% made by me, and the hand position was referenced by @ocha-iice's drawing of zelda in her "hot milk meme".
