Miscellaneous YesMary doodles (my parents keep watching Poirot in the evening, which is only a problem because I’ve seen all of them so I wind up drawing fluff instead).
Mary would totally nail teaching herself advanced robotic repairs in 24 hours. Also confused/broken androids are cute as hell just you try to tell me otherwise.
I wound up talking about this ship to one of my long-standing friends today and she told me ‘you know it’s not a proper ship until you’ve drawn one of them dying in the arms of the other in an overly dramatic fashion right’ and well damn can’t argue with that sort of logic can you.
Also Exitvoid is a horror panfandom game so hell it’s practically canon :|
More YesMary/Mary scribbles done between comic work.
Because Mary is a badass that’s why.
Also guess who finds sarcasm inexplicably attractive oh wait that’s right everyone.
(More doodles from not-watching-tv on the sofa) I think one of the things that draws me to Fred/Yes Man as an interesting concept is how he’s suddenly got all these new emotions and doesn’t really know what they are or how to deal with them.
So yeah I tried to imagine how he’d react to being really fucking sad for the first time.
It sucks, huh Freddie.
pretty much always but I’m bad at tutorials and I’m tired so here have a bunch of WIP screencaps or something
so yeah first get that diggity darn basic sketch down, here I pushed Fred’s pose to look more like the cartoony double-bounce step walk I reckon he would have but his proportions are pretty humany so he’s not too different structure wise
needed reference for how the cuff would crease so I took a shot of my own sleeve (egads whodathunk you can use yourself as reference)
I tend to draw things a few frames after the reference if it’s moving; it’s a habit from animation, but basically to get away from that stilted rotoscope look that some heavily referenced pictures get I try to ‘animate’ the picture and draw it as if it’s the next key frame in a sequence, so here the coat has been pushed forwards by Fred’s hand and the folds are following that through
slapped on the rest of them clothes because ain’t nobody wants a naked android strutting about, also he’s not going to be on a catwalk in the picture so I threw in some blustery wind to help that hair and action line out. You’ll probably have noticed that I also leveled out the floor so his feet are both more duck-toed and at a different perspective
throw in a loose map for the lighting and there’s your goddamn scribbley-ass sketch. After this I red line it and fix all the mistakes I’ve made before going to inking and yes there are a metric shit tonne in this one but I’m hella tired so this is as far as I got :|
hope that helped somehow but yeah, reference; it’s great, use it, but don’t copy it, copying leads to dead awkward poses that your character wouldn’t do and really you don’t learn as much from copy pasting even if it’s by hand
More doodles from this thread because holy ship I’m going to get diabeetus from these two
also bonus points go to Mary’s umbrella for being a grumpy third wheel in the background you go little dude keep them in line
I’d already seen what we were watching on the telly so I doodled these
if my parents knew what I was sketching on the sofa they probably wouldn’t care because they’re as mad as I am
Possibly… because who doesn’t find thankfully waterproof robots who’ve got sopping wet from going on deck in the middle of a storm absolutely adorable?
Especially when they act all happy to see you despite being miserable and cold?
Also I swear to god Yes Man is a golden retriever in another life so if this doesn’t happen I will revoke his puppy license.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM THANKS FOR RUINING MY TUMBLR WITH YOUR PERFECT MARY RP WRITING SKILLS YOU BIG TURD
