Background Drawing - Tumblr Posts
a drawing of my oc
All of these are commissions I'm currently working on. I wanted to sketch them out before drawing them digitally. I really love how they came out so far.
Another desert drawing!!
Everyone seemed to like the one I drew for art class so here's another one ^^
What art app you used? And what art style you used?
I use these four programs. Flipaclip for animating; Capcut for editing; Autodesk Sketchbook for illustrating; Pixel Studio for pixel art.
As for why my art looks the way it does, the philosophy for it is, “Modern cartoon design theory + Cartoon logic + Shoujou-Shonen anime aesthetics.”
If you were reffering to who or what influenced me to draw like this, I honestly have no idea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ This also isn’t the only way I draw, but it’s definitely my most common method. In fact, it’s the only method you see me draw in. The times when I do draw with a different method aren’t made public because they aren’t BBAU related — unless, you’re interested…? Then I could post some of my favourites.
Here’s some character concept sheets for a little more insight into my thinking process. The left side was made in 2021, the right side was made in 2023. As I said, I like utilising modern cartoon design theory. So I make sure each character has at least one recogniseable shape, that way all the designs are very distinct. And then I build on that cartoony exageraated model with some anime aesthetics. Simplified body parts contrasted by detailed clothes, face and hair. (Each of the sheets are made for one character, despite there being two models) You can see this philosophy be brought onto my BBAU drawings aswell. Billy with his short height and blocky hair; Alex with his tall stature, long limbs and bowl cut; Olivia with her giant braids/wolfcut and spiky shirt.
As for backgrounds, I don’t know what my art style phlosophy for it is. Also I don’t have any concept art since I just wing-it and remember all the details from memory. I don’t like neglecting backgrounds, since I see them as an extension of the character or a character themself. Though I will admit, I have cheated by covering the background with a bunch of characters or foreground to hide my lack of effort in designing.
My attempt at background drawing. Damn, drawing buildings is hard. I'm also a person who's not really enjoying drawing little details, so it's even harder for me.

THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!
