Drawtober-Inktober-Drawlloween-Monster-Sketch-Prompt-Thing - 05 of 31 - Huntress 🏹
All that talk about getting up early and getting doing early didn’t work today. I mean I was up early doing other stuff because I totally anticipated this sketch to take at max, 30min , like the other ones, but nope. It took way too long for me too get to this point. I got way too into my head with it, way too stiff and blah. I had to erase a lot – like when it was fine but for some reason, I thought it needed adjusting, which then caused more adjusting needed, which then it looked good, and then adjusted it again. And it was a cycle. SMH! I forgot about just sketching for fun. Especially since this one is based on a character I like – which was most likely part of the problem. I was going into it trying to make her different and perfect and based off of memory, but then because of that, I made her look super weird, so sometimes you just gotta go back to basics and use the reference that you should have done in the first place to make her look like the actual character. I still put my own spin on her design/layout/etc. like I wanted to, but I wasn’t going into it native and blindly. Plus, just design/illustrate smart. This isn’t supposed to be super detailed and a masterpiece, and that’s what I was trying to do, which ruined the experience. Lesson learned!!! [Gotta yell at myself a bit and hold myself accountable otherwise I’ll do it again. Which I still might lol, but then I can double-‘yell’ at myself to knock some additional sense in me!] 💀
Anyways, here’s Huntress! (And, just so you all know, I already picked out the colors of the blocks for all 31 posts, but don't pick out what prompt I do until the day of. Love how the Creature was Green and the block, and then Huntress is purple and so is her block!!) 💯
