Mable Art - Tumblr Posts
I just realized I never posted this and I’m so mad because I love how her design came out and I just love her in general. There are many things I’d like to divulge about her, but on the off chance I ever actually write this story, I’d rather keep them to myself for now. What I will say tho, is that she’s a detective/hunter for the UCR (Unseelie Court Regulations) which, as the name suggests, are responsible for policing peoples and creatures who fall under the definition of Unseelie Court (and both trolls/troll changelings and kelpies do). There’s a completely different justice system that deals with the Seelie Court and non magic folk.
But anyway. Yeah. This is Mable. She’s- she’s a funky little bean, but I love her very much. Also, she needs sleep so bad, bless her-
I am so, so happy with how this turned out, I just- *vibrates* it’s been so long since I’ve done a full page
I sketched Enya’s new design a few months ago on what was planned to be a junk page because marker had bled through from the other side, but then I really liked it and I had a few new design ideas for Faas, so I drew him too, and then I realized I had enough space for Mable and-
So I colored them all and drew on random scraps of paper to glue on top of the marker bleeds. I don’t know why I’m so happy with it, but it’s one of my favorite art pieces in a while because usually I’m not particularly spontaneous, but things happened, so.
This was the traditional drawing I was referring to about Mable’s hair texture. This is what it’s supposed to look like. Also I’m still trying to decide whether it translates that she’s wearing tights, I feel like it sort of does, but idk.
I have a migraine, but really wanted to draw, so it needed to be dark, and this is what happened. Mable is so fun to draw, idk why. She just is. She’s probably either just woken up from a nightmare, or it’s two AM and she hasn’t fallen asleep because night thoughts.
I wanted to paint something yes i’m still hooked on the sol brush, leave me alone, but I feel like I’ve done too many headshot type things recently, so I decided to just do my main three’s eyes. ‘Cause eyes are half the fun of a headshot, so why not. I’ve also been considering doing some anatomical painting studies. We’ll see.
I gave enya like- pseudo eyelashes that are vaguely inspired by leopard geckos, even though she’s more amphibious than reptilian. Also, why are dark eyes so satisfying to draw? They’re just very nice. Anyway. Yeah. Eyeballs.
I’m so normal about them.
