I could never draw on phones I think, if you have a PC you should try it there, I swear it's easier. Or if you have spare money you can buy a Surface Pro one day. They are as good as ipad pro but cost less and you can draw onto the tablet like a canvas. I think you can get the Surface Pro 6 for a few hundreds by now. I use a desktop PC and/or Surface Pro 7 though so I don't know how good 6 is but it shouldn't be very different.

ANYWAY, I don't have many tips. For me it helped that I always drew anime-styled stuff and that the IDW characters look like fancy mecha.

But in general what new artists should do way more often is: tracing for training.
Tracing is looked down on because people associate it with artists faking their proficiency. But tracing as training can help, I did it all the time when I was a little kid and it made me get a gist of how proper lines and proportions are drawn. You need to get a feeling for the bodies you want to draw, especially if they're huge like the ones Transformers have.

Also when you start drawing your own poses don't despair if the first sketch looks wrong or even if you notice 50% in that the pose looks off. I think it's normal to repose and redraw parts all the damn time especially with complex characters like TFs. Don't do outlines and details right away, I always make one VERY vague sketch first (basically just the dynamic it should have or the "shape"). Then a sketchy shape of the body like pic related. Then detailed lines which is where I do most of the changes by selecting and transforming bodyparts with the lasso tool and only after that do I start with the actual outlines kek

But maybe other TF fans have other methods. It also depends on the series too. Some series have twinkier designs so you can basically draw anime body types and add armor.

Drawing with a phone is really, really hard. Because the screen's so small even with my stylus.

Not impossible, just hard.

But while I can do 'art' (painting) I abhor working with pencil and paper. Digital screens are awesome and I wish I invested in one when I had student discounts. I'm not aiming for Chinese digital art quality, I honestly just want to do cute sketches like yours. Just getting a single helmet right would make my week. Which is what I've been practicing. So many of the cast have Roman armor shaped heads at their base which has helped me understand what they're going for with some designs. But an actual tablet seems to be the way.

Should I watch the Venom Trilogy? I generally don't watch/read superhero stuff but I saw some Symbrock fanart and it piqued my interest. However, it doesn't seem to have great ratings and I don't want to waste my time if it isn't good.

>I want to hear more about this…
It just makes sense. We see it with Sky, when he reads her journal after she vanishes, when Jayce rejects him, when he sees Jayce's memories. He cries when he's overwhelmed. And what could be more overwhelming than having your best friend cosmic soulmate fuck you? It's crazy to me when I see fandom portrayals of him as this cold unfeeling daddy dom guy, because come on. He's sensitive.

Agreed on all fronts. I hope to one day write Crying Viktor without completely butchering his character… It is very appealing.
>fandom portrayals of him as this cold unfeeling daddy dom guy
Does this really happen? Jesus. I guess I could see it for what little I know of his original League lore, but Arcane? Nah. That's up there with fandom Viktor being some hyper experienced mega slut. I just don't see it.

fucking adorable, and he's going to be voiced by Patrick Stump. Fall Out Boy is great and there's no way they don't have him singing at some point. I'm really excited to see what they do with him.

I hope he ends up being as much of a snarky douchebag as Adam was, it'd be boring if he ended up being as polite as he looks.

Not really? Basil isn't as outspoken as Henry but he basically spends the entire book lusting after Dorian. He's the painter of the portrait and totally-platonically appreciates his beauty "I worshiped you too much and now I'm punished for it." Henry is their bitchy friend who spends the entire first part of the book complaining about women but also poisons Dorian's mind to cynicism and vanity. Henry and Dorian have more in common with their ethics and ideals, but Henry also basically exits the novel for the second act since Dorian has alienated everyone including him. Both Henry and Basil are positioned as negatively impacting Dorian just in different way (through both positivity and negativity.) I agree Henry is the more proactive character, but Basil is the one who gets the 1800s love confession and as a fan of one-sided pining I'm here for it.

What I'm saying is I accept your ship suggestion as a valid option but Basil/Dorian is my preferred dynamic.

The censored version is longer since it's the version that was actually published as a novel, the uncensored version is the magazine run of it.

I've read them too far apart to know if you should read both or just one, but here's an article with a comparison of the text so you could decide which one to start with at least.

Ok finally had a chance to read it and it's good, not great, but it's so nice to have this finally concluded. I feel like Valve is kind of trying to slowly step away from TF2 and have it be more of a Legacy game and the fact that this comic finally came out adds to my feeling that they're wrapping up loose ends. My vote is we get the Heavy update at some point next year. Or maybe I'm pessimistic and this comic is an apology for the bots, TF2 for 50 more years!

I kinda regret that the band never turned their image into a media franchise with comics, games, novels etc. Anyway, I never shipped anyone, though 2-D was my husbando at one point.

How was there never a Gorillaz/Dethklok collab? I don't even think I've seen a fanmade crossover, be it art or fic. It seems like the most obvious thing in the world. Imagine what it would sound like. Imagine the character interactions.

I couldn't see a Dethklok crossover working simply because their styles of music don't mesh and they both use satire in a completely different way when it comes to looking at the world. That being said I would kill for a Brendon Small feature on a Gorillaz song.
