Mouse Drawing - Tumblr Posts
In 2019, an artist I followed on Newgrounds, called OutlawEric (though he went by idrawbutts at the time) presented the world with a fun little art challenge called Sprite Draw. On his website, at the still functioning link https://www.beaudu.com/spritedraw one would generate a random set of pixels and interpret them into a figure of some kind. Plenty of folks participated. I was one of them, and decided to do a whole five-by-five grid for some reason. Then in 2020 I decided to do it again, though I was the only one this time. This is the 2020 set, in the Cooler Daniel position next to the 2019 set.
I also decided to write lore for these as a fun creative challenge but I'm too proud of the formatting to post it without and I'd either have to go through the bother of re-exporting all of these with the little labels attached or post them separately, whereupon they wouldn't all fit into one post. The writing is also bad probably.
Some old art and some moderately less old art of the same things for comparison. For an art challenge sort of.
January 2023 vs January 2018
July 2020 vs (I think) December 2010
All but the most recent one in Adobe Illustrator with the pen tool and a mouse, the most recent one in Affinity Designer with the pen tool and a mouse. It was never a good idea but I've invested too much and can no longer stop myself.
Hunter's Dream from Bloodborne, from 2020 when the game was turning five. Drawn with an attempt to emulate Edward Gorey. The outlines for the church and the stairs were made with a very good and proper pair of projections, though you may notice some fudging in those four spike things around the spire because the projections were intersecting and I couldn't be bothered to fix it properly. Two wolves, one simply couldn't be bothered with that at the time and the other definitely spent more than a week getting this finished.
Ordinarily when I say I drew something with a mouse I am compelled to add, "using the Pen tool" as while it doesn't make the process faster it does take the need for precision movement away. Every single visible line in this drawing was done with the Pencil tool this time, though, because there were 60,000 of them and I think doing that with the Pen tool would take longer than remaking the game from scratch.
"Pontes had so very many appointments to attend to, the bulk of them made centuries in advance. He did not have room for Death in the schedule, and to expect otherwise was simply unreasonable."
Character design/drawing from 2020. Very much tonally inspired by the work of jouste.

Been playing SuchArt
Not finished but I'm so happy with it!
The product of procrastinating for two hours. Why is he so pale and pastel. I did basically the same thing 6 months ago (I'm not sure I improved chat :()
MS paint Basil! I saved the image on a drive after class periods from the school computer and just drew on top of it every chance I had.
After drawing what's on the left a friend suggested adding lips which mildly confused me until he showed me his vision of turning the mouth into an upper lip. It came out alright, but with the consequence of Basil looking literally like Elsa with short hair 😠the atmosphere is really different between the two but I guess both are fine?

otro dibujito random :D, aunque fue para experimentar el digital, hasta cierto punto me gusta como quedo, sin duda es el dibujo el cual más e demorado pero me tomaba muchos descansos para ver que modificar, aun asà el pelo no me gusto mucho pero bueno.
Some cool stuff I did in ms. Paint with a mouse.
Windows 10 and 11 are horrible, terrible, no good operating systems. As such all my future digital art will be done exclusively in MacPaint!
I have come to bring good news! This is a Roblox Free Draw drawing!
