"He looks like a cool drink of water but he‘s candy-coated misery"
Changed my mind about posting tomorrow, I‘m just gonna drop this now.
Today I found out that there‘s some things you can add to your character for tiny details of story telling and make it look more grounded in reality:
Moles/skin imperfections - everyone has those
Tiny scar - maybe he fell on his face as a kid lmao
Chipped front tooth - let‘s the viewer know he tends to be a bit careless at times. Also, looks adorable
It‘s also pretty fun to paint these in, it‘s like adding wear and tear but on a character instead of a prop :>
Also decided to leave out the goggles this time because they never turn out good and I‘m not a hard surface artist (to be fair i‘m also not a character artist but here we are. Maybe i should quit making excuses and just admit that i‘m lazy)
PS I‘m also totally obsessed with carrie underwood right now. If anyone is interested, I‘ll gladly share my country playlist, there‘s nothing but bangers on there
