Some ocs and random art!

I can "double post" because I am the author of this thread. Double posting is like leaving an unecessary comment. You can reply to threads as much as you want, just don't spam is what it is. Maybe someone else can explain it better than me.

Forum etiquette can be interesting sometimes. Not that I'm an expert on it, but double posting generally deals with a situation in which something can either be corrected in the original post, or does not add anything new to the current conversation. So a new post in rapid succession can be something along the lines of making separate posts responding to previous people one at a time when one post with multiple quotes or @ can do. If you need to correct something that you said you can also edit your post with something along the lines of "[EDIT] <insert edit to comment here so people know you've added something>". Those are the situations in that immediately come to mind anyways, and seeing a bunch of new comments on discussions with no additive substances can possible irritate others and may come across as attention seeking.

A similar type of real world analogy to this would be if you've ever seen a kid raise their hand to ask a question in class and respond with "nothing" when the teacher calls on them, that's the similar kind of annoyance that can happen with a double post.

The reason Jewel's new post here doesn't count as a double post as it's adding something completely new to the conversation that is different from her previous post. A lot of fanart topics and such do this to keep all the person's art consolidated in a single spot to reduce clutter and confusion.

Hope that clears things up a bit. Also not trying to call you out in particular GT as I don't frequent the forum as much as I used to, just trying to explain things.


Anyways, back onto the topic on hand, I love doing quick sketches like these, they're really good practice without committing a lot of time. Both drawings capture the expressions quite well! If I had to pick...I'd maybe go with the flustered one, as I feel it's a less seen emotion. Great job!  :bronGoodJob

Thanks flathead, glad that you've explained things, even better than I could.

I like the flustered one too!  :wub It is indeed one of those expressions that don't get much attention.

Thank you! And don't worry, I'm still doing your request, but I've been waiting until I get m device back so I can make it digitally.

here's an art trade I did with rainbowfaceProtegee. and Rainbow, just a reminder of what i mentioned before, if you really REALLY don't mind waiting much longer than I can make it digitally. I hope you really enjoy it, sorry I didn't get to make it into a digital piece.

some Mousefur drawings! I made them into stickers kind of.

Oh ye, she's from warrior cats, and I guess she has a sour personality, since she's an elder in some of the books. But this is her in her warrior years. She's so sweeet! I was inspired to draw her from this wonderful youtuber, Amelia Bothe. I love her design!



Oh- this one is featuring some algebra work.

You're extremely good at this!!  You draw expressions so well, and your characters are incredibly endearing.  Calins, huh?  I love when artists make such interesting species, and this definitely qualifies.

No digital art today! Just two sketches of a random character!

I was just practicing some expressions. Which one is your favorite between the two?





Okay.  This is just too much.  I can't with the cuteness.  Your art has such instant appeal that goes off the chart.

Loving the designs of your characters Jewelstone! The expressions are great, especially on Grace  :D

waaah! thanks bush! Grace is just your friendly salty gal

Been a while since I posted someting on this thread, so here's some more stuff!

This one is a character of mine named Stamper, and if you can't tell he's a bad boy!



Next is a character named Emily. She's stuck up and doesn't have time to deal with nonsense.


And here's a random cat sketch! I love drawing fluffy things! Oh, and below that is a pic of my lil bebe, Ruby! (yes, she was named after the pink birb.)





If I haven't mentioned before, she's the main character for the comic I'm developing. I'll call it 'How To Be A Human's Pet' I plan on making it a hand held comic book. Maybe I'll post a few pages online. Who knows.

An interesting pattern here is that although your characters they tend to have a lot of attitude that makes you think twice about taking them lightly, but they're still consistently endearing.  By the way, is How to be a Human's Pet online anywhere?

Nice, as always!

You flatter me! No, I haven't even started this said comic, I've been tweeking some things and making character designs for it. I've even decided to change the name of the story, but I haven't figured one out yet. Glad that you were interested though!

Also thanks, Sneak!
