I drew the chair. πΈπͺ My shading needs work... maybe I'll do more once the burnout has fully lifted. #animalcrossing #animalcrossingnewhorizons #frogchair #froggychair #roughsketch #roughdrawing #minatheswift #shading
Hey, still not dead. Just dealing with a serious burnout. I don't want to get into it. Everything is different now, though, and I'm still struggling to adjust. This picture was a simple character design, and shouldn't have taken weeks, but it did. I guess the best thing to do is move on, right? #digitaldrawing #digitalart #deer #deerart #deerdrawing #deercharacter #anthro #minatheswift #characterdesign #newcharacter #deergirl #cloak

What's this? It hasn't been half a year since my previous post? Maybe my motivation is slowly returning! Here's hoping that this image isn't too crunchy.

Back from the dead, I guess. I haven't drawn in a while, and my art style feels so different now.

Another Friday upload! I just decided to test some facial expressions this time with some of my characters.

Hey guys! Here's another Friday upload. :D This guy is Sergio, one of my older characters (seriously, I haven't drawn him in several years now. I'm just glad that I still had an old picture of him to use for reference!) Instead of explain his species and such (he's a bat, but he's also not a bat? Like, look at his tail.), I wanted to ask a question. I colored Sergio twice, ones with dark grey claws, and once with normal, orangish-yellow ones. I'm personally unsure of which one I like more, so I'm leaving it up to you guys, both on DeviantArt and here. I don't know which colored claws to use for his final design. If anyone actually reads this far into the description, even a single comment would be appreciated. Otherwise, I'll likely end up flipping a coin.

I felt a little guilty about only posting once in the span of two weeks, so I decided to post some of the completed assignments from my art/design classes.

It is indeed four in the morning. I couldn't sleep, so I drew Skitl handing you some flowers. I kind of enjoy shading by hand, even if I'm not the best at it.

For no particular reason, I have decided to draw a small hamster boy wearing a purple hoodie. I guess he likes purple.

Here is the second of today's posts. This is Kopi, a little raccoon dude that I don't seem to draw enough! In the bigger picture, he's 18, and in the smaller one, he was 13. He's pretty much going to double in size during his teen years, but he still likes to wear the hat that he stole off of a garden gnome as a child. He even had a friend to make the hat longer for him. π #anthro #bandit #digital #digitaldrawing #digitalart #kopi #raccoon #raccoonboy #redraw #tanuki #thief #anthroraccoon #bluenova #bluenovacomic #redraccoon #anthrocharacter #raccoondrawing #raccoonart #raccooncharacter #digitalraccoon #minatheswift #tanukus #oldcharacter
This Friday, I'm making two posts! This is Circuit, a 22 year old mechanic. (I know she looks like a child in the second picture, but she was 17 there. Circuit is really short and child-like.

So, I drew Lambda again, this time with her sister Sundae (Sundae's real name is Lambert, though). Lambert loves ice cream, hence the nickname and the confetti in her hair, meant to look like sprinkles. Lambda gets annoyed with her older sister Sundae sometimes, but they still get alone nicely. π (Sorry if this one was later than it usually is!

I was super busy, so even though I would have loved to post a comic today, I had to settle for this little doodle instead. I haven't thought of a name for him yet, but he is part dinosaur, part dog. This little dude is a stegosaurus (explaining the scales all over his back and tail) and a border collie. I'll, uh, post more about him when I think of it. Oh, and uh, please don't call him a goat. He hates that. π #bordercollie #digitalart #digitaldrawing #dinosaurdog #dogart #dogdrawing #photoshop #dinosaurdrawing #bordercollieart #stegosaurusartart #bordercolliedrawing #bordercolliecharacter #minatheswift #stegosaurus #dogcharacter #dinosaurcharacter
This week has been rough, so instead of another Blue Nova character design for this Friday's upload, I drew a cookie pig. Or a pig cookie.

https://www.deviantart.com/minatheswift Honestly, I was strongly considering not posting anything this Friday. It's truly frustrating that most of my posts are only seen by bots, and the like one or two real people that see me and like my posts (thanks, by the way. You guys are cool). Here's some creatures that I made recently. Uh.. follow me on Deviantart for more frequent uploads.

I'm back again with another Friday picture. π Don't forget that I have a Deviantart account now, and art will be uploaded there whenever I finish it, instead of just every Friday and the occasional Tuesday. π This lady's name is Sierra C. Dhog. Her last name is pronounced "Dog", the idea being that her middle and last name are pronounced "Sea Dog", another name for a sailor, I guess. The C also stands for "Cassandra", but she hates that name. #comic #comiccartoon #computerart #desktop #digitalart #art #digitaldrawing #pirate #pirateart #pirateotter #otterpirate #otter #otterart #otterdrawing #yarr #minatheswift

Heh guys! I have a DeviantArt now too! Follow me there at MinaTheSwift for.. slightly more frequent uploads. π I'm definitely still struggling with the square formatting here. Either way, all of these are Ethan, a sunbear character of mine. I've done two sketches of him this week, one being him as a child, and the other, an adult with a few scars from his adventures. The third picture is what he looked like originally. I might do more sketches like this for a bit while I try to figure out character designs and such. Oh, uh, I have a DeviantArt now too.

Here's another painting. π I'm a bit fascinated with colorful sunsets because of the diverse yet flawless gradient. I tried my best to replicate it here! I wasn't sure about the umbrella, though. The colors looked too dull the first time, so I basically just painted over it once it dried. Trouble is, now the umbrella looks comically large. I didn't mean to do that, but I kind of like it. π€ Class is finally over (at least, until the summer courses begin π΅), so hopefully, I'll be able to do more stuff. Or, I don't know, maybe I'll finally try to get help for these crippling headaches.

Decided to give Aseprite a try, since it's been on my laptop for a while with no use. I have to admit that it was actually pretty fun drawing Oliver like this. π Maybe I'll do more at some point.

I decided to do something a wee bit different this week, and I redrew a much older pair of characters with a slightly newer art style.

Here's a thing that I did to let people know that I'm not dead. My personal life has been a bit much lately, and I'm drowning in a sea of college classwork, but I'm trying to schedule things so that Fridays are easier days for me. If I'm lucky, I might be able to post at least once a week, probably on Fridays. Seriously, though, this sunset made me happy. I'm really happy with how it looks compared to my first attempt years ago, when I was first getting into digital art. I even put the sun's fragmented reflection in the water. ^_^ #Sunset #SunsetDrawing #SunsetArt #HorizonSunset #SunsetHorizon #MinaTheSwift #DigitalArt
