Part of a slightly bigger page of things for a person (that’s more than likely to be finished sometime later today).

“Isn’t it a lil’ early in the day to start talking about Gothic architecture?”

I can NOT draw Foxy today, I am so sorry

I’ve been wanting to do something with an animatronic Discord for a LONG while now, and this ask finally made me get off my lazy butt and attempt it. Granted, this of course isn’t exactly MLP style, but more so how I would interpret these species from the show into my style (with the exception of Foxy, ‘cause foxes haven’t been shown. :’D)

Thank you, Anon! <3

(Hehe, and thank you so much! <3)

I know it’s different for everyone for whatever circumstance, but I would think that Freddy and Foxy are males, while Chica is (of course) female.

And while this may be a ‘debate’ for most, I actually can’t determine what I would ‘prefer’ Bonnie to be. I see that character as androgynous overall. While I initially assumed Bonnie was a girl (and probably would use female pronouns to describe ‘em on most occasions), I can also see Bonnie as a male. But I tend to switch back and forth just ‘cause.

If I had to specifically say a gender, I suppose a very tomboyish female (mainly ‘cause of appearance). But I’d say it’s left up to everyone’s interpretation/preference, considering there’s no confirmation of Bonnie’s gender from the creator (as far as I know)! :)

I have a LOT of dumb things I started that I really need to finish.

This being one of them.

(and maybepossiblyhopefully in a stream sometime tonight, who knows!)

If I may, I’d like to take a moment to thank you guys! For about the past week or so, seems more folks took notice of my work enough to like some pieces, let alone give me a follow! I’ve earned over +1000 in the past several days, and it’s been crazy…

Numbers don’t mean that much to me because of their quantity; rather, glancing at them from time to time gives me a sense of how many folks perhaps enjoy my work. And I’m forever grateful. :)

I know it’s mainly because of the FNAF stuff, and I’ll definitely still be keeping at it! But I hope you guys won’t mind the occasional post that differs in content here and there.

Again, hope I can keep up the work to appeal you folks! Makes me extremely happy to get to draw for folks; more so if you guys actually want to see more. <3 :)

Heya! First off- thank you so much, dude! I try my best with my work and I’m beyond flattered if anyone likes it, let alone considers themselves a fan. <:) <3

Now, onto your main concern - I’m afraid I actually can’t give any ‘professional’ or proper instruction on it, as (while it’s probably a really bad thing) I haven’t truly studied anatomy (in terms of drawing). Of course, I’ve pulled up the oh-so-occasional real life photo or two to help myself get a sense of things (both animal and human), but I’ve mainly looked at other artists works for body reference; considering my main interest leaned more towards digital art/cartoon works (and still does, of course, hehe). :)

HOWEVER, one notable thing that I always, ALWAYS incorporate into my drawings when doing bodies is something called ‘line of action’. In a nutshell, it is like an imaginary line that can go through the main subject/characters of your piece in one clean swoop, and it lets you know if something seems off.

Here’s some examples in a lil thing I did for a good friend of mine a long while back:

And not only in final (or ‘close-to-final’)pieces should you check to make sure you have such good flow through your piece, but especially in sketch phase, like such! -

(I wonder if those two are somewhat recognizable.. :D)

And the way I make sure my proportions seemed to be laid out okay is with something that everyone should be able to do - stick figures!

This may be the one steady example I have for this! -

You may be able to notice the stick figure thing with Gilda (the griffon) and the sloth in this! Obviously, character design can alter the common ‘human stick figure’ anatomy. Yet, it may be possible to see that even for such a simple representation of a being, it goes in flow with the character in the layer underneath. :)

Now onto your other concern about hands, my lack of ‘proper’ knowledge on that is same as above! <:D  All I’ve simply relied on is other drawings/inspiration from other artists, ‘tutorials’ and hand charts that would come from Disney/Warner Bros. books, the occasional photo reference or two, and most significantly the actual ‘feelings’ of my own hand in particular positions. I can’t explain that last one, but just… I simply draw how my hand feels (even if a comical/toony stretch or squish of some sort).

And while I can’t go into detail because I such at it, I whipped this lil thing up real quick to show how -I- generally do hands in the long run. -

Overall, it’s all from constant drawing/practice from me (and of course admiring others’ works and their skill to pull off hands). Contrary to a common thing with a lotta artists, I actually find hands to be one of the most fun and enjoyable things to draw! Granted, there are many situations/angles you could be given to draw them from that make them a challenge, but they are enjoyable nonetheless.  ^^

All in all, this is how I do things. Sorry for rambling here (I tend to do that a lot with these things), but I hope I possibly fulfilled your request!

Though, aside from just admiring other artists you happen to find, I’d highly recommend looking up different kinds of books that are written by artists/animators from animation studios, like the ‘Animator’s Survival Kit’  by Richard Williams, or ‘Character Animation: Crash Course’ by Eric Goldberg. While I’ve only had a chance to skim the first few pages of the first one and only looked at one page of the second, I hear a LOT of great things about these books, and the authors themselves have done amazing things (Eric actually being the person responsible for the animation of Louis from one of my favorite Disney movies, ‘Princess and the Frog’)!

But again, there are TONS more one could find on their own accord!

Hope I could’ve possibly helped here. One thing to keep in mind is that you must draw EVERY day, EVERY chance you get - no exaggeration here. If you’re at home with nothing to do, at a restaurant with plenty of napkins and a pen near by,or any place you find doable - draw and/or doodle something. Even if it’s something silly, very simple, quick - it’s a bigger step towards improvement.

As many artists say, we have thousands of bad drawings in us. As soon as we let ‘em out, it’s likely the good ones’ll start surfacing. :)

For Orlando Fox! :D Chica x Foxy shipping!

Hoooo-ly CRAP.

I… wow, I can’t stop staring at this! (And that second pic… GOD robot eggs.) 8’]

Thank you SO much Kayla! Words can’t express how in love I am with these! Love love ‘em! <3 <3 <3

Maaaybe! :D

Hehe, I really hope I’m more or less starting to get her design down okay, though! Assuming the colored picture I found of her was accurate. :) 

Would love to do a few more colored things of her when I get the chance! <3
