This was finished on December 21, 2023 & was shared on December 21, 2023 Character Reference: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/717770012/ 0) Links/info 1) Intro 2) bout project 3) freaking little detail rambles 4) art process 5) end 6) Credits ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Kings, Queens, and Other mythical beings!! ehtjahdsa dhja it feels like it's been awhile since i've posted a project that i've put quite a bit of effort in,,,,,well not anymore!! >:]]] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- okay first of all tho how silly is it that in my last project i literally said that i was having a hard time drawing digitally, and then i finished this awesome piece in 3 days???? hm?? :raised_eyebrow: anyway- right off the bat i want to say that this ISN'T a part of the coloring contest, it closed on December 15. tbh when i started working on this, back in November, i was mainly interested in the art cause it was cute and looked fun to color. then, i got really really tired and stressed, and drawing just seemed like a chore so i stopped for awhile. not to mention that i got grounded again sooooooo :shrug: (grrr how dare i not listen to everything my mother says!!! how dare i ask questions or ask her to clarify!!! how dare i try to be independent!! grrrrr /j) also- this wasn't really gonna be an art process but then i realised i've never done something like that???? so i thought it might be fun, and why not do it for this piece? there will be 2 steps missing bc i didn't draw the lineart, but that just give me an excuse to do this again <3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- okay okay there is just a smalllll little story behind this hehehehe ("small" "story" he says. nope, just lotsa lil details fhjahdfj) 1) the lil white and grey thing in the bg with blue highlights is the equivalent of a stray dog in this world!!! they're common monsters to see, quite harmless, and creatures big and small adore them 2) the lil guys on the blue overhang thingys are the equivalent of pigeons!! i love adding little details, and i know doggys and pigeons are seen commonly so i just had to add my version into this world. they're like little birds with bat like wings, lizard tails and horns. weird but still cute tho :D 3) the lil orange guy is kinda like a mix between a doggy an raccoon, and he's someone's child who wandered off. in just a few minutes the mom is going to come running back, terrified, only to find her son completely enthralled by a small snail and ladybug (equivalent) party/rave that he's found going on in the bushes. she won't listen to him, and will instead drag him away, leaving him sad that he was removed from the party so early :((( (lil guys first party was at like 4, wooooo!!!!!) 4) the open door with tile inside is actually the boba shop where tanzanite got his boba!! 5) the guy working the counter is actually sleeping, even tho a big group just came up and ordered from him 6) Tanzanites boba flavour is plum and coconut, with no pearls (i personally don't really like them, sum kinds of pearls are okay but mmmmmm not my favourite) 7) This is Tanzanites first time trying boba!!!! He was initially on a date with his boyfriend, Zircon, when they ran into his other party members!! The group started chatting, saw that T and Z had boba so went to go get some before coming back to talk again (everyone who was there: Ember, Devin, Fable, Spider, Lazuli, Magpie, Tanzanite (obvi), Zircon (duh), Paridise (name pendin), Xephra (didn't spell it correct but idrc), anddd Saleos (didn't spell it correct either but WHO CARES). Z saw T lookin at him, and, well, snapped a photo. Zircon is happy and proud and pleased that he can now take Tanzanite on trips with him and dates, they wanted to be able to do this with him for so long but Tanzanite had severe social anxiety that he just COULDN'T. leave. his cave, at all. most scenes with Tanzanite outside won't be him at the start of the comic, it's going to take a lot of work for him to even step outside. Anyway, Tanzanite is just happy and bein silly cause he likes his new friends, loves (ooooo he LOVVVEESSSSSSS) Zircon, and bc his boba tastes good!!!! he's a simple man, he don't need much B) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROCESSSSSS!!!! 1) original lineart (done by @anais777) 2) lineart used [] what i did was upload the ori to the site i use, magma studio, and trace over the original piece, adding Tanzanites characteristics! (this lineart still counts as the originals because it isn't in my style) [] 3) flat colors [] magma kinda sucks so what i have to do is upload a reference sheet on another page, and then color pick back and forth but i got it done [] 4) background sketch [] okay, i LOVE doing backgrounds so much, it's all just so fun to me??????? what i did to start off was lay out the foundations i wanted, each character was typically sketched twice, first with the same red then on a different layer with a darker red to get a bit more detail [] 5) lineart [] i decided i wanted a linearted scene again, so i drew over the sketch. the bg is on one layer, each character is on their own layer. this is also when i got ungrounded and was able to work again, so this was made in december [] 6) flat colors [] i love flat colors but they kinda suck sometimes, bc random bg characters need to have designs but still. its fun <3 [] 7) ori piece with bg [] i just like to do this to show how it looks together, this is gonna keep happening throughout the project so um yeah [] 8) bg again but with minor changes 9) rendering [] okay so what i did for this (im gonna assume you're using magma too) is i used the actual brush, not the pixel brush, and made it black. i then turned the opacity wayyyyyyyy down, and on a layer right above the one i was shading, added shadows carefully, making sure they're all in the opposite direction of where the light will be [] 10) again, tanz but with rendering and highlights now 11) highlights #1 [] pink was the initial color i went with for a more *moody* kinda shading [] 12) highlights #2 13) highlights #3 [] i added yellow over the pink highlights, to make it pop a bit more, and i made the string lights have a little glow. you're not gonna see them but i know it's there, and it makes me happy [] 14) highlights #4 15) highlights #5 [] okay to be fair these are just Tanz's little glowy patches, his eyes and antennae. [] 16) finished piece!! [] and now i added the main overlay, which was a bright pink with it's opacity wayyy down, and a bright yellow but in the shape of a sunbeam, with it's opacity down too. i also used a white brush (not pixel) with a lower opacity to add little white dots, which i think make it pop just a bit more [] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- and that's all!!! okay this was really fun, i really enjoyed making these, even if just for funsies!!!! i know this won't be counted in the CC but that doesn't matter to me, look!!! Little Tanzanite has yet ANOTHER scene!! He has so many!!!!!!!! (prolly cause he's so fun to draw AAAAA) okay, have a great rest of your day, and please like the project if you liked the art piece!! :DD /nf ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿ >---------------------------[]CREDITS[]---------------------------< ✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿ ➤ Art [] @KrazyKashewKat (not main char lineart, that was done by @anais777) [] ➤ Website Used [] Magma Studio [] ➤ Code [] @KrazyKashewKat [] ➤ Music [] Boba Date by Mark Redito [] ➤ Design [] @RubyRedRaccoon [] ➤ Time Taken [] je ne sais pas :shrug: [] ✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿✿ Please do not steal, trace, reference, recolor, or remix this project or any of it's art, designs and/or code.
