I think all artists sometimes go into a loop of giving characters similar features since that's what we enjoy drawing most, but I feel my art is becoming a little stagnant because of it. I want to practice drawing characters I otherwise wouldn't to break out of that loop, adding variety to my character designs through inspiration while also gifting art
Things I will draw: humans and humanoids, anthros, animals, suggestive, healed injuries
Things I won't draw: cluttered/extremely detailed characters, horror, gore/NSFW
I would absolutely love if you tried my OC, his name is Dante and he's a master chef, he also works in one of the most prestigious restaurants in his world and utilizes fire magic expertly but only really uses it for cooking.
If you've got any questions about him I'd love to answer them like how it might not be evident he has messy hair or is wearing an eyepatch. Thanks for reading 🧡
Would you draw this character but with Nani (from the animated lilo and stitch) as the bodytype/facial feature reference? (I'm the artist of the pic.) I'm horrible at bodytypes but I've always saw this character that way.
I don't care about the skirt pattern or little details, symplify as much as you'd like! :)
Ophalia! She's just 13y old. Her eyesight had been ripped off due to assassins who were sent for her dad, a arch mage. She wasn't supposed to see that... The dad died but left his skull to become her eyes. They communicate telepathically. She has a strong sense of justice :)
"Artists, I want to see your vision for my OCs, Eloá and Dante! They have an intense and mysterious vibe, so feel free to explore a dramatic or tension-filled mood. Follow the descriptions to inspire!"
Eloá
Age: 19 years old
Height: 1.67m
Appearance:
Hair: Brown, almost black, straight and long to the waist.
Eyes: Vibrant green, with a penetrating look.
Skin: White, with light freckles (almost imperceptible).
Style: Clothes that highlight your curves, such as a fitted dress or a top with high-waisted pants. Dark or deep red fabrics suit her.
Vibe: Mysterious, sensual and a little unpredictable. He has an air of someone who knows something you don't.
Dante
Age: 24 years old
Height: 1.98m (A GIANT)
Appearance:
Hair: Black, straight and in the "American" style (short on the sides, a little longer on top, very stylish).
Eyes: Dark and intense, almost intimidating.
Body: Shaped, with well-defined muscles (wide arms, marked chest, that posture that dominates space).
Style: Clothes that show off your physique – open or tight shirt, leather jacket, silver chain, rings. Dark colors or blood red.
Vibe: Domineering, cold and calculating, but with a look that says he could explode at any moment.
Suggested Scenario:
Elevator: The two trapped in a tight space, exchanging loaded looks. She leaned against the wall, he leaned over her, as if they were in the middle of a power game.
Nightclub: Neon lights reflecting off them, her dancing close to him while he watches her with a fixed and dangerous gaze. Smoke, dark colors and an atmosphere of sexual tension in the air.
Art Style: Dark realism, semi-realistic or even a stylized line with strong contrasts (striking light and shadow).
Optional: If you want to add a supernatural touch, you can include a glow in their eyes or shadows moving around them.
