Okay, so I wanted to do an art dump because I wanted to showcase my improvement since I've joined Scratch. I love art, and I've gotten a lot better over just the last 2 years. I'm going to try to find my earliest drawings, and then I'll try to go in some kind of order. I will try to find dates for as many of these as I can, but that isn't possible for all of these. Section 1, older stuff, #1-11: 1. Oct 20, 2020. Very first Flamesong drawing if u don't count a few concept sketches I did before this. Comments/Opinions: Okay, for what it's worth, this isn't terrible, but I don't really like my old style. This was one of the first cat drawings I did, and... I don't hate it with a burning passion, but I don't think it's great. (A few minutes later, realizing that this actually is a redraw, and this was done on December 9, 2020) 2. Dec 17, 2020. Flamesong in her original/only ref. Comments/Opinions: Quite similar to above, because these were drawn within like a week of each other. 3. Dec 16, 2020. Everestheart drawing. Comments/Opinions: Again, I don't hate this, but I can do a whole lot better now. 4. No date. Firestorm nursery scene. Comments/Opinions: This is probably earlier than the first 3, I don't really have them in a specific order other than old stuff, middle stuff, new stuff. This isn't even actually finished! I honestly don't like it. I actually have a redraw on my old account, @maemae_05 Link to redraw: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/474152514/ 5. No date. Brambleclaw. Comments/Opinions: I actually don't hate this too much, but again, I can do so, so much better now. Also, this was back before I was actually semi-good at character design, and the design was a lot like the canon one. There's nothing wrong with canon Bramblestar (the design, not his character. There's quite a bit wrong with his canon character...), but I like to have my own design. 6. 1/29/21. Girl watching fish. Comments/Opinions: *cringes* 7. 1/29/21. Uhh... random girl I guess. Comments/Opinions: *cringes again* 8. No date. Human Squirrelflight when I honestly kind of sucked at drawing people. Comments/Opinions: *cringes even harder* Why is her head so big?!??!!?!?! 9. 2/25/21. Human Squilfy when I got slightly better at drawing proportionate people. Comments/Opinions: I actually don't hate this, but it isn't super recognizable as Squirrelflight. 10. 3/9/21. (Redraw: 11/11/21.) Human Sandstorm bust sketch ft. redraw. Comments/Opinions: I liked how the hair came out on the original, and definitely on the redraw. All in all, neither of these are terrible, especially since I technically haven't designed a human Sandstorm yet. 11. No date. Leafpool. Comments/Opinions: No. Just, no. What are those feet? Are you wearing fuzzy socks?! Section 2, middle stuff, : 12. 2/22/21. Leafpool's vision, Ch 3, Sunset. Comments/Opinions: This is actually a redraw, and I want to redraw this scene a third time. This isn't terrible, but like with all of my older work, the anatomy could use some improvement. Also, I'd like to change up the composition, and maybe do a humanized version. 13. 5/14/21. Original official human Squilf ref. Comments/Opinions: I like this, and it was the basis for later Squirrelflight drawings/designs. Fun fact, I actually own the outfit that Squirrelflight is wearing in this drawing. 14. 5/14/21. Human Tawnypelt ref/drawing. Comments/Opinions: Honestly, she looks a bit lifeless here, but that is the outfit that I put Tawnypelt in the most often, even though I draw Tawnypelt in different outfits a lot too. I like the hair, but, as you'll see a little bit later, I draw Tawnypelt with split-dyed hair now. Section 3, new stuff, : 15. 12/3/21. Bianca Solace-di Angelo. (Or di Angelo-Solace, whichever you prefer.) Comments/Opinions: AHH! I love this so much. If you didn't figure it out, this is Bianca, Nico di Angelo (NICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICONICO...) and Will Solace's daughter, because she would be named Bianca and you can't tell me otherwise. She'd have the more Hades-like fashion sense but be extremely musically gifted from the Apollo side. I love her. My queen. 16. 4/8/21. Heathertail, Breezepelt, and their first litter. Comments/Opinions: Love this one! It's not perfect, but whatever. It's wholesome, and I like that. I also really like Heathertail's markings. 17. 1/15/22. If only I was Camilo's girlfriend... Comments/Opinions: Yes. Just yes. This is me in the Encanto universe as Camilo's gf. I am just slightly obsessed. 18. 1/1/22. Human Dovewing bust. Comments/Opinions: I really, really like this one! I've done sketches of Dovewing before, but I've never made an actual piece. This was done with my Ohuhu alcohol-based brush markers. 19. 6/1/21. Hazelcloud. Comments/Opinions: A little something I made for a while ago that I don't think I ever gave to her... So... if ya see this, this is your late Christmas present or something. <3
20. 5/25/21. Irispetal ref. Comments/Opinions: <3 21. 1/1/21. Ivypool human bust. Comments/Opinions: This was done right after the Dovewing one, same day, same art supplies. I really like it! Side note: I showed this piece to my friend, and they were absolutely in love with the design, so that made me feel good. <3 22. 6/3/21. PANTAWNY!!!! Comments/Opinions: We love hc pansexual Tawnypelt. <3 I don't know... There's something about how the anatomy on this that I really like. The flag colors are out of order, though. I thought I fixed that. 23. 4/6/21. Pre-Crowfeather's Trial Breezepelt. Comments/Opinions: Ah, yes, fresh scars, malevolent expression, and warm blood dripping off your claws. Nothing like being the DF's most loyal trainee. 24. 11/14/21. Uh... two random girls. Comments/Opinions: I was bored one day so I started drawing, this is what became of that. The heart is a little added touch to prove that these 2 are definitely together! <3 25. 11/3/21. Smokehaze. Comments/Opinions: I... This is Smokehaze. You CANNOT tell me otherwise. No kit of Breezepelt's is lame/normal. 26. 11/1/21. More Smokehaze. Comments/Opinions: I've always had an attachment to Smokehaze, and I refuse to believe, contrary to what ALitM said, that she was deceived by Brashstar! She was at the meeting for the cats who were suspicious! One day I may go through the books and find every time Smokehaze is mentioned. 27. 11/11/21. Squirrel and Bramble b4 TNP. Comments/Opinions: I know the quality isn't great in this one, but if you can't read the words, it says "Ages: Brambleclaw: 17, Squilf: 14." and then for their heights, Squilf is 5'2'', and Bramble is 6'5''. 28. 11/11/21. Squilfy <3. Comments/Opinions: At this point, Squilfy is 17 and Bramble is 20. I loooooove my new Squilf design. It is fabulous, not to sound conceited or anything. 29. 1/1/22. Human Squilf bust. Comments/Opinions: She's an adult right now. This is probably about when she becomes deputy/Bramblestar's Storm. Really love this, like, a lot! She is my queen, and I WISH that Bramble respected her more! She deserves it! He got more than he gave in terms of marriage. 30. 12/28/21 (I think...). Tawny is a queen. Comments/Opinions: Okay, but I love this design. The split dye, the suit, the tiger striped tattoos, the ShadowClan crown, the lightning bolt in the background! I am obsessed with this. Side note: Is it ironic that I give Tawnypelt a spiked collar? Side note 2: Uh... enjoy my thumb making a cameo, lol. 31. 1/1/22. Human Tawnypelt bust. Comments/Opinions: Okay, but I looooove my Tawnypelt design. That is absolutely enough said. Also, note the pan patch on her vest. 32. 10/19/21. Tawny x Squirrel wedding. Comments/Opinions: I still love this, but not as much as when I first made it. I'll do a redraw at some point. 33. 10/16/21. Tawny x Squirrel wedding redraw of my friend's Tawny x Squirrel wedding. Comments/Opinions: My friend did a Tawny x Squirrel wedding digital art piece, and I very sketchily recreated it. I didn't try too hard, and I was using my friend's design, so it isn't great, (not that her designs aren't great) but I still think it's cute. Side note: The erased part is because I had my irl name written there. 34. 6/3/21. The imposter. Comments/Opinions: This one is a bit hard to see, if you go into full screen, it's easier. I actually worked pretty hard on the shading and everything, and I made a point to emphasize the blue eyes. All in all, I really, really like this. So that's it! This was mostly for me to put in perspective how much growth I've experienced art-wise in the last two or so years. This is by no means all of my artwork from COVID, not even close, but it's all of the artwork that I had access to on my computer without having to dig through my room for papers and sketchbooks. Anyway, I hope you liked this pretty thrown together art dump! <333 ~Irispetal
