Start By Drawing A Plain Humanoid Figure In Whatever Pose You Want, Make Sure To Plan Out What Position

Start by drawing a plain humanoid figure in whatever pose you want, make sure to plan out what position you want your cape to be in, and be sure to get some amount of references from the game or online so you can study them to figure out how to draw them. Studying the outfits as you’re trying to draw has definitely been the most important one for me. Getting pose and/or lighting references can be super helpful as well, and you can go online to try and find something (or ask someone) if you’re unable to get it in-game.

Also, some people choose to draw their Skykids with more human looking eyes while others prefer to stick to exactly what they look like in game, so I suggest experimenting a bit to figure out what you’re most comfortable drawing! I personally prefer drawing them with white eyes because I struggle with eyes. And hands.

No idea if this part will be helpful, but this is how I draw my little guy (featuring bad shading)

I originally made his design in-game and then I took reference pictures with the Season of Moments camera from a couple different angles, and then I just insert the refs and draw. I’ve gotten better at drawing him with practice, so your first couple drawings might be bad before getting better.

I’m also working on giving the kids actual expressions 😅

Anyways, go wild with it. The most important thing here to note is that references are lifesavers when trying to draw Skykids.

HEY GUYS I JUST GOT AN EMAIL ABOUT TRADEMARK ISSUES FROM TUMBLR I—

Also if I start posting a lot slower, it is because I am currently in the middle of a rather large drawing project

Actually talking about the AU (wow, I know) by rambling about how Anton Shudder ended up on a team with the necroking and a godlike Valkyrie, because he really isn’t on their level of gleefully deranged. I am so biased towards him it’s not even funny.

Anton came back when the rib-bone wand exploded and sent out a burst of magic power, hitting various people differently. Anton, given as to how he’d been dead for so long, was extremely disoriented and saw a lot of chaos going on around him. He instinctively latched on to Valkyrie because he trusted her to not lead him into any stupid situations and she actually still seemed normal at this point.

Valkyrie was really happy to have Anton back and tried loosely explaining the situation to him as they went along fighting people (specifically Winter’s terrorist group). After the fight was over, Valkyrie argued with Ghastly over what should happen to Skulduggery (the compromise being that Skulduggery can be in Ireland for the time being but cannot go in or near Roarhaven) and the three of them decided that staying around Valkyrie’s house for the time being would probably be a good idea, and so they do that so Skulduggery has somewhere to hide and Anton can catch up with what happened since his death.

Now at this point, Valkyrie seemed normal to everyone, including to herself (think of when she turned into a Faceless One god). It took a few days for her to realize anything was wrong with her, and then she had to figure out how to trigger her transformation and what to do afterwards. She and Skulduggery (who’s now using parts of the shadow armour) also started acting more and more violent and unhinged over the next few days, but neither of them really noticed it.

Anton noticed it though, and he had conflicting feelings about it. Because on one hand, he disapproved of the meaningless violence. But on another hand, he loved them both a lot (he and Valkyrie eventually view each other as siblings) and he was also going through an interesting transformation at the time: losing his ability to summon his gist and instead basically being able to turn into a shadowy demon creature for short bursts at a time.

And then the Faceless Ones got out thanks to Malice. And while they were weaker than before, it meant that the mortals now knew about magic and things started going downhill fast. And Valkyrie jumped to the opportunity and went out to go pick fights with the Faceless Ones, while Skulduggery grabbed the other necromancers in order to do the same thing. And since Anton had nowhere else to go, he just…kept on following Valkyrie. Throughout everything. When other people started following her, when they settled down in Dublin, when he killed Mia, the list goes on.

And now it’s been years, and he can’t imagine anywhere he would ever be able to go away from Valkyrie. He’s unhappy, yes, but he doesn’t hate her. Really, he’s learned to shut out a lot of his emotions so that they don’t keep on bothering him. We’ll see how long it takes for him to finally lose it, I suppose.
