A Place to put Chibi Heavenly Shenanigans

Your art style is really cute and full of life! I like these a lot.

Those be some kawaii chibi.

[Primrosette]

They are so adorable! I can't wait to see more of these cuties in this style! ^^

[BlizzardeyeWonder]

Hijacking my own thread to post these but like obviously they're all angels who've never done anything wrong and never will so is it really hijacking-

[+] SOTF Children, past and future

Closeups

unfortunately not chibi tho

[backslash]

I like all the poses! It gives each of the characters a distinct personality compared to each other, even the ones that haven't been written yet.

I don't know how I missed this thread updating!

You've done a super nice job with your SOTF kids. I'm really impressed by the attention to detail you put into each, and especially the postures--from the ones I've read, I can say you've done a great job conveying their personalities.

Camilla has a kind of quiet and slightly uncertain but caring energy about her. I like the way her hands are held like she's not quite sure what to do with them. I also had actually forgotten how tall she is, and you do a nice job with the scale of all your kids next to each other.

I don't know Teashi yet but she looks a little bit peeved at being so much shorter than Camilla, which I love. You did a great job with that pouty, not-super-seriously-mad-but-okay-maybe-a-little-mad expression. For some reason her outfit makes me think she could be the protagonist of like one of those mid-90s video games where someone gets sucked from the real world into a fantasy realm--it looks normal but also if you gave her a sword it wouldn't look out of place.

Meilin seems so nice and energetic, and she combines confidence in her stance (with the hand on hips and the wide center of gravity) with a slightly less sure edge with the foot-pointing. Also, I've noticed it with all your girls but I'll specifically call it out here: you do a really nice job with hair! I like how you have a little bit of realistic messinessL to it; it makes them seem more alive.

Liya's stretching pose is cool. She looks like she's kind of warming up for something. I'm also impressed by the accessories and smaller details to her outfit. You made her pants nice and artfully torn, and her belts and pouches look fashionable in a way tat can be hard to pull off. She has an almost softly punkish vibe, without being aggressive with it.

Lydia's a bit more restrained, but wears it well. I love her wave, like she's going "Hi, I'm here too with all these unusual people!" At the same time, she has a slightly uncommon edge; I particularly appreciate that she rolls her pants up and tucks her shirt in. It's a kind of halfway formality that reminds me of some folks I knew in high school.

Finally, I appreciate the sort of uncertainty you bring to Meena, especially with her being the shortest and the last in line. The way she's holding her book makes her look not scared, per se, but maybe a little bit nervous, as she checks out what everyone else is doing. But with a curious edge, too! I also like the slightly more rustic style of her skirt.

You did a really nice job with your girls! It's great to see Meilin and Camilla in your own style, and it makes me really excited to see your V8 girls in action because even here they've already got a lot of personality.

oops I guess this is my art thread now

[+] Camilla sketch because I forgot her freckles last time AA

[+] Meilin during freshman year

(gonna draw Meilin during other years of high school as well, since I said in her profile she changes her style year to year)

They're precious ;-;

[Kotorikun]

good stuff good stuff GOOD STUFF

[Primrosette]

They are so precious, Blizz! ^^

[MurderWeasel]

I really like Camilla amongst the flowers. The freckles look great, and there's also a sort of... peaceful yet mildly ominous vibe about it. I don't know, maybe it's just because I know how her story ends up, but I'm reminded of an old poem called The Lady Of Shalott, which is also about someone who meets an unfortunate end due to love. It's really nice and evocative, and it's cool to see you experimenting with scenery and background; you do a great job getting te point across while also using conservation of detail.

Freshman Meilin is great also! It's cool to see a slightly more restrained, conventional look for her; she actually does come across as notably younger here, which is cool. You do a good job getting into the process/evolution, showing that she's on a journey with some twists and turns, and I'm excited to see the next steps. Also, I love the subtle little accessories, the bow and the bracelet.

Thanks to MW for introducing me to a neat poem! (and the compliments but y'all gave compliments so aaaa)

[+] Sophomore Meilin

I was gonna post Sophomore and Junior Mei at the same time, but I figured I'd share what I drew so far! There's a thing on my phone camera which makes the edges of a drawing suuuuper clear which is helpful for my jittery hands, but sometimes a little less so haha.

[MurderWeasel]

Whoops, I could've sworn I commented but I did not!

Sophomore Meilin looks really cool! I like how she's clearly coming out of her shell in terms of her outfits, and really dig the detail and texture you put into her clothes; the side-knot in her shirt (which I'm sure has some specific name but search me what it is) is really particularly well done. I also like how you give some depth to her star pendant, and how you do the ragged fringes of her shorts. Also, a small thing, but it blows me away that you're able to keep her facial shape recognizably consistent between all the different iterations; Meilin always looks like Meilin, which is no small feat with all the aesthetic shifts she has going on. You did a really good job, and I look forward to the final(?) episode in the saga when Junior Meilin arrives.

[BlizzardeyeWonder]

well that teaches me to wait too long between installments in a series >.> Thanks again for the compliments, everyone.

[+] Junior Mei
