Description OH. MY. FREAKING. LORD. This took absolutely FOREVER. WHY DID I EVEN THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA---

The amount of erasing, relining, repainting, SO MUCH PAIN. A whole 3 days was spent on this, and what do I get? A not even really clean halfbody art of a concept species. FFFFFFFFFFFF. 

There was many times where I wanted to give up, but then I remembered just how disgustingly difficult it was to line this piece of work, I just couldn't back down lol.

I also used a LOT of muscle reference to get the anatomy as 'accurately as possible', though I couldn't find a good one for the arms so rip.

Here are my steps, ALL THE BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS. I hope you guys can like this despite it being just a simple thing. //cries



I also totally ditched the bottom half of his 'body' because it was wack. srry

EDIT: I decided to crop it because there was too much space...anyways, full version will be up somewhere...in my toyhouse later perhaps

EDIT2: His subspecies called Eternia is now official! Please look forward to these centipedes in the future~
SUBSPECIES Holloweiss Eternia Guideline Special thanks to omotavi for helping me brainstorm this species!!
As their name suggests, Eternias are Holloweiss that are born in a lifeless state. They come to this world all broken up into pieces, a truly nonfunctional body. The parents of such offspring must find Ghost Fishes that live in the dark sea waters in attempts to breathe life into the body of their child. Ghost Fishes are the mythical creature among the waters, finding just 1 is extremely difficult. Once captured, the parents will bring the Ghost Fish to their Eternia and it will automatically adopt the lifeless body on its own. Even though the Eternias' body will grow old, they do not need to eat, nor do they produce waste. Eternias who are brought to life by Ghost Fishes do not have any emotions, they are just a shell, but as they grow, if lucky, they will come to learn of such emotions. Eternias' body is linked magically through soul links, as long as their Ghost Fish is alive, ren

This looks mega clean though?? Unless you're talking about other attempts in this style? xD
Haha, if it's too much time consuming and you don't feel it's for you, totally just let it go <33
We can look back to this beautiful image and reminisce about it when you get 100x better in the future!!

You should teach me how to lineart instead senpie   

I more or less understand the basics with a LOT of refs. We just need to look at more nekid bodies for...research purposes.

IT'S BECAUSE YOU WORK ON CANVAS' THAT ARE 258726X BIGGER THAN MINE.
I work on the smallest canvas' in the world >_<
I can't get used to drawing bigger for some reason?? I don't like it!

I can't lineart either.... I like to sketch ; v ; BUT EVERYONE IS GOOD AT SKETCHING.

Yes. I read yaoi intensely so that I can research how to draw ikemen /////

STAHP YOU CAN LINE PERFECTLY //squints at adopts

See!!!! Mine are at a max 1000x1000.... They're mostly like 800px or something like that OTL

I've been so lazy with lineart because of my computer lagging >_<
I CAN'T DRAW STRAIGHT LINES TO SAVE MY LIFE. LIKE WHY COMPUTER.
I can't wait to see more of your adopts!!! <333
Your art is just so perfect       <--- Me and Maddie's favorite "perfect" icon xD

..... I totally did that once to try and draw boobs ; ____ ; IT DIDN'T HELP. H girls are either loli no boobs, or they're just so big that by the time the girls are 20, they'd probably never be able to save their backs. I'm super interested in drawing peens though ; v ;

Ohhhhh. Well, that's not bad as long as you're not fitting a fullbody in there xD
I know a lot of artists who draws in smaller canvas, it's not a big deal! It's just not idea for prints, hehe.

Aww....maybe you're running out of storage room. My computer used to be slow because of that. And make sure to clear out your junk files often!
Try to check your system performance too in the task manager and turn off/uninstall stuff that you don't need that are running in the backgroudn!

ASKJDASDA I HOPE TO SEE MORE FROM YOU TOO!!!!! ;; A;; <3 Your creations are always so cute, the character sheet you provide!!   

LMAO SORA!!! You're so cute! x'D Tbh same, I wanna try to draw some sticks too, because I am fine with drawing boobs.
But I feel like I am sinning hard, like it's one thing to look at them, but to draw them yourself? that needs some mental prep of a whole other level xD

Yes, I'm trying to push myself more but at the same time, give myself breaks if I feel overwhelmed so I don't come to hate drawing.
So drawing feels more 'wow I'm learning!! Oookay so you do this!' than a chore like 'WHY CAN'T I GET THIS, I HAVE TO GET IT DONE'
I am not my best teacher. ' ^ ' ;;;
