@MJ-the-Larcenist-Arsonist I don't have much time right now fow a long commentary, but anyways, there you go! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1xmCyrjrE13ZC_BIuAlC_2Jenpia6KSjE?usp=sharing

I'm so sorry for the delay, I haven't even logged in in the past few days. Just… There's a lot of personal stuff going on right now, I deeply apologize. T_T

May I mention, y'all have such edgy characters and OOOOOOH BOY I'M HERE FOR IT BABY
Abel was the hardest for me too draw so far because their clothes are kinda detailed, at least they are for me, someone whose OCs only wear skinny jeans and a regular fit t-shirt lmao. I LOVE his clothes tho, I'd wear that if it wasn't 30 ºC in my city xD
Also, thank you SO much for putting a description of his facial features, like, NO JOKE IT WAS SUPER USEFUL. I'm gonna update that on my characters' profiles, it's an important detail in the design that people just tend to overlook. I hope I got his features right tho, specially the nose and eyes xD I love drawing long eyelashes and sharp eyes, that's peak character design for me and nothing you say will change my mind u.u

and also MARYLINN LOOKS SO COOL IN YOUR STYLE, YOUR ART IS SO UNIQUE! Like, for real, your art style is very distinct, and I'm an absolute fanatic for edgy (this time, literally "full of edges") art styles, and the textured lines are so cool! I actually based the background of the trade in one of the drawings you made of Abel, the one with a solid black background and the textured brush coloring/shading, it legit looks pretty neat :)

@larcenistarsonist group

No worries for the delay man,, I didn't even notice it alskjskdkdk

First of all, THANK YOU SO FUNKIN MUCH!!!! My art style is something I've kinda been wrestling with for the past little bit and I think I've finally gotten to the place where I'm happy with it!!! Drawing Marylinn was so much fun and I love her character to pieces!!

Also no problem for the extra detailed character sheet alskdkksk (I have been told my character pages are overly detailed and that's a compliment in my book)

AND AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHAT THE HELL??!?!??!?!?!? ABEL LOOKS AMAZING!!! SERUOUSLY JUST- THE BLUE LINEART AND THE SMIRK AND THE EYES!!!!!!! BRO- it's so good oh my god- I can't stop looking at it- I've already shared it with all my friends and my algebra 2 teacher- !!!!!!!!! Tysm fam

@Cadeverek group

@Leshierian Yup, it's open! just send me you character's (or characters') references or profile and what style you'd like (more on that in the very first page, it might be a little long to explain again lmao) and I'll do it!

@Cadeverek group

Just a small announcement :)
The trades are currently on hold until January 30th, since I'm participating on a game jam, so I won't be able to draw until that day (gotta lotta work to do!). You can send me you characters if you want tho, but I'll start drawing them on Jan 30th. Hope this is ok!

@Leshierian

I've been busy and completely forgot (sorry). This is Hearst, if you don't have the time it's 100% okay.
I'm gonna say bust, line art and color (my shading skills aren't at a place I'm happy with them so I'd rather not give you a sloppily shading drawing) and digital art.

@Cadeverek group

Alright, I'm back to business! The jam was pretty fun, but now I do have lots of time to do the trades :)
Alright, I'll hand you Amadrya because I've been furthering her plot lately, but I never truly tackled her profile here, so it's incomplete. I did fill out some stuff last minute just so you weren't met with a literal name and one only single image lmao
Anyways, I better go get my drawing tablet!

@4lagoon4 group

@Wykie Oh! No problem. ^^ I never really see people format like that so I think it’s really cool haha (Also there’s a discussion in the forums called Notebook tutorials! Somebody already did a tutorial on how to do markdown, but anyone’s allowed to add to it 👏)

@Cadeverek group

Can you please check if the page is set to public? I think it's still private since I could not access unfortunately :(

I didn't expect you to respond so quick so I'll give you 2 options, just choose whichever you want!

  • Kainu, that one doctor OC I made because I wanted to
  • Jack, a very much depressed fella

Both of their profiles are incomplete, I swear I need to stop spending time in those forums and actually start writing lmao

@Cadeverek group

@Leshierian Hey-o, Hearst is ready!

I hope you enjoy, I had so much fun drawing him and he made me realize I don't have any characters with side shaves???? That happened with AloofFloof's Tobias too (I still love that man, my precious Tobias), I like seeing you guys' designs, helps me get my creative juices flowing xD

And for some reason I just really entertained the idea of pairing Hearst with the color cyan, for some reason it seems to fit his design very nicely! I didn't draw the jacket since the best reference I had of him was the hoodie one, so I drew a hoodie and colored with the jacket's faded blue, I hope you don't mind!
As I was drawing, I saw the description and the ref and just said "sh1t man, what's his face shape?????? his hair is pale what???? blonde??? pink??? blue??? his eyes, HIS EYES HOW ARE HIS EYES" and then I scrolled to the "notes" section and just sat there in awe making the closest humanly possible of this face ._.) I was afraid I'd mess if up but the description in that section was just enough though. Also, I tried to make him seem a bit afraid or unconfortable to fit his personality, I wonder what part of his backstory lead to his anxiety?

Overall, I can say he's an amazing character, and his design is adorable! ^w^ I hope you enjoy (and with some luck I got the colors right, I'm a huge perfectionist with colors so aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa color theory)

@Burn_With_Me group

@Wykie, I've been popping on to see your drawings because oh my freaking gosh I love your style Im dead its so gooodddd AHHHH

Also ngl I wanna do another art trade with you… maybe with my character Robin but idk if I have a good description up for him.

@Leshierian

I'm so sorry, I got busy and forgot about this. Okay, here's Amadrya Setnion And also
Amadrya Setnion line art Since I'm never satisfied with my coloring job on any of my drawings. (I've never used google drive to share anything so I hope this works) I tried to get her chill/laid back personality, I don't know how well I did. I also didn't want to make her look mean or anything, though I may have made her seem a bit too warm. Anyway, I like her character, chill going and blunt without a sense of cynicism often added to characters in the archetype. Also you describe physical aspects in detail which is helpful but I'm hopeless at understanding physical descriptions and rely heavily on images, so I'm sorry if it isn't entirely accurate.
Hearst looks great! You even added in his bitten nails. Sorry for the confusing descriptions I only put the simplest of physical details in because I prefer to draw them and let them evolve over time with each drawing (Hearst is one of my character I never draw in detail and only give him dot eyes). Also you've made me realize I don't have a drawing of him colored in on here.
This was fun! Sorry again for being so late.

@Cadeverek group

@Burn_With_Me YO THIS IS SO CUTE I CAN'T EVEN LIKE 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Sure! We can trade again, as many times as you want! Sorry I didn't see this earlier, I didn't log in this weekend but it's all good now :)

@Leshierian Sorry it took me long to reply, but the files are not public, so I can't access them! Just go to the "share" tab and choose "anyone with the link" or something along those lines. Usually when I make more than one version of the drawing I drop them to a separate drive folder, and then set the entire folder to public, so I don't have to manually alter all the different pics :)

Yay!!!! Tbh my life has been absolutely insane and my drawing life has dwindled 😭😭 but I can make time to do another art trade!!! Let me fix up my page for Robin and I'll send it over to you asap!!

Oh, jeez. I'm not the most technologically competent. Let me try again.

Is this working?

@Cadeverek group

@AAA_Batteries I'm so sorry for the delay, my classes are back and FINALLY, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, IT'S NOT ONLINE ANYMORE THANK YOU JESUS I OWE YA ONE

Here goes Bellamy, I hope I got their hair right though! Also, I got a bit carried away because I couldn't draw a frogge in their shirt but I put some in the background to make up for it because red-eyed tree frogs are so funny and cute and idk, I felt like it! I won't be able do make much of a commentary about them since I didn't have much info to go on about (I get the drama with your RP partner lmao this happens with my tabletop RPG characters as well xD). I hope you like it, and let me know if the link is broken btw
