where I dump my scribbles
I’m still working on some art for a thing I’m working on with someone (so requests/asks may be slow for me to reply to still, my apologies!), but I worked on an off on this little thing throughout today.

Looot of people were requesting more FreddyxBonnie art, so I tried to serve up another doodle!

How do you go about drawing characters talking with their mouths open (in a sorta angry / sad expression)? I can never get it to look right :u

I’m not the best teacher, as I couldn’t really explain this well, I think. ^^;

But, it’s all about how much emphasis you put on certain parts of the face; more so the mouth (of course), eyebrows, and the eyes themselves.

When drawing characters in a more mad, angry state, I tend to bring the eyebrows closer together (and this depends on how close the eyebrows would even be in a more neutral position) and furrowed, while making the mouth line a bit more tight, almost as if you could imagine that character giving a huffed, “Hmpgh”. And as they talk, corners of the mouth tend to be ‘sharper’. If they’re yelling, they can loosen up a bit, but that sharpness in the corner is crucial!

With sad, I make the eyebrows stay as they probably would in neutral position. Furrowed, but in opposite format (I assume that’s how you’d describe that?). Eyes, sometimes bulged out, yet stricken with slight fear, maybe discomfort; all depends on the kind of sad!

Aah… visuals may work better for what I’m trying to get at here. :’D Here’s some actual demonstration of what I mean and extra words (with Freddy and Golden Freddy as my guinea pigs). -

Apologies if it’s not much, but I hope it MAYBE, kinda-sorta helped a bit~

I’ve gotten a LOT of asks this past week about drawing more Freddy!
The thing is, I’ve slacked a lot on him as I actually dislike how I manage to portray him the majority of the time.

Finally managed to get a decent headshot of him done, though, so perhaps this can suffice for a bit before I try at somethin’ better! <:)
