Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (2001)

A crude drawing of Norman Reedus as Sam Porter America Bridges Strand from the hit game DEATH STRANDING 2: On The Beach. He is standing next to Hornet from Hollow Knight Silksong and saying "We're gonna have to kill this guy, Silksong." - Hornet Silksong responds with her classic line "SHAW!"

I really like that learning to draw means I can take stupid ideas from my brain and just create them

Anyway, here is today's art practice

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 13/14 - THE END

We got there , I practiced drawing every day for two weeks. Drawings from now on will be 1-2 a week instead of everyday so I can focus on other creative outlets

But we did accomplish our goal, I can safely say that I can draw good now 🫡

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 12

Got carried away with this one and ended up making another "tribute piece" to one of my all time fav games

(you should play Outer Wilds)

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 11

Day 10 took me literally all day, so to rest up here's a sleepy kirby I drew in under an hour

This is the exact reason I finally removed Twitter from my phone but kept Bluesky on my phone.

I don't feel the endless scroll urge on this app and when I'm at my computer I can't look at social media for more than like 5 minutes before my brain tells me to do something fun/productive with my time

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 10

Wanted to do something awesome for hitting double digit days, this drawing took pretty much my whole day but it turned out SO GOOD

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 9

Didnt do much learning today, but we still had fun

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 8

Practiced drawing faces today, didn't have as much time as i did past two days but I think I got some good work done

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 7

Woke up with an urge to draw Gray Fox, turns out drawing armor is HARD. I think it turned out okay though

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 6

Did this one live on stream, got a LOT of good tips from chat/art friends 😀

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 5

Today's session took A LOT outta me but I gotta say the results are pretty good, followed a tutorial for basic shading technique that really improved the look of the drawing but getting there was a real uphill climb

a digital drawing of Venom Snake, Revolver Ocelot, Kazuhira Miller, and Huey Emmerich drawn to look like Hank Hill, Jeff Boomhauer, Dale Gribble, and Bill Dauterive, respectively

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (2021)

Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them. Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!” Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.” Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face. Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 4

Drawing from reference practice - I think today is the first drawing I can say actually turned out really good and its fucking Morshu from Zelda CDI

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 3

Used clip studios 3d pose thing to create the base layer to see how a humanoid drawing would look, ended up making a sicko

please be nice to Derek Frontfaceman he's the best character i've ever made

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 2

Followed a couple tutorials today on shapes/faces, then finished with following a general drawing tutorial to draw Kirby for fun

My interpretation of why they used Principality instead of Kingdom is because the ruling power seems to be divided among the Duke and all the Zabi heirs

Like Kycilla, Gihren, Dozle and Garma all have their own separate armies loyal to them and their projects

It's a bit like the Holy Roman Empire

Context: I used to draw a ton back in high school and almost went to art college before dropping out twice instead (lmao). So it's been about 10 years since i drew anything and I decided holding myself to drawing something everyday will actually force me to relearn the skill + learn digital art.

DRAWING EVERY DAY UNTIL I CAN DRAW GOOD - DAY 1

Screenshot of a Discord message that reads: "MGS DELTA THOUGHTS - MAIN GAME ONLY, HAVEN'T PLAYED SIDE MODES YET -Virtually identical to the og, but in a way that feels redundant rather than faithful -Controls suck ass, especially cause the game says legacy controls are "same as the original game" and their completely different - your mileage may vary tho -Gwaphics are a mixed bag, obv the fidelity is higher but again their so alike to the original that they feel lacking - some effects dont work in the new style, good but nothing about them "wowed me" -Virtually every easter egg/hidden thing from mgs3 is in with some new collectables tossed in - Guy Savage by platinumgames was the high point of the day -Unreal Engine causes frame drops/crashes and runs at like 50 fps on my pc with no upscale which is more than og ps2 but less than my ps2 emulator Conclusion: Delta is good, but it's good because it's basically a ps2 iso with ue5 gwaphics and new controls slapped on PS: I also might be biased because I play MGS3 five times a year unlike the average gamer who hasnt played it since like 2011 at latest"
