I was approached by cosplayer Esther the Great when she needed a mascot for her new website (which I also helped her set up) Rehtseeee.net. Check out the end result!
Do you want to draw better lines? Ever wonder how other artists' characters look so dynamic, yet your own characters look a bit static? I will show you in this tutorial on how to draw anime line art.
Comrade Punynari decided to hold a contest for artists to design a new mascot for his site, Moe Passion. He used a moe character generator (more info on his site), to design the mascot, but wanted something with a little more artistic liberty to fit with his site’s main theme – being a blog of a US sailor and otaku. His design was quite interesting, and very impressionable to me, so I gladly took on the challenge. That and he also wanted to draw on a Navy motif gave me just the inspiration I needed in order to make his mascot Sakura more unique. Drawing this style was definitely out of my comfort zone, as I don’t do a lot of moe feeling characters. That and I’ve still yet to grasp the subtle nuances of the loli-moe proportions.
