Description Cheesy title is cheesy. Bluh, oh well. Anyway, I felt like making another ballpoint pen drawing for the lulz. I'm pretty pleased with the way this turned out, aside from the copious amounts of ballpoint pen loogies that splattered in odd places. >:U Oh well.

I LOOOOVE CROSS-HATCHING FABRIC FOLDS. <3333 Can you tell? xD

Thanks! Curse those loogies; why do they appear in the most inconvenient spots?

I dunno XD Sadly there's a lot in the thinner areas, like near the top of the picture and in the faces D: BUT STILL A GREAT PICTURE! 8/D

I am amazed and astounded by your pen shading skills. There is some serious cross-hatching going on in there, and I like it!

This is adorable and awesome at the same time. Grimm with Thaxter's hat is just too cute.

I really love how you do the ballpoint pen drawings. That's gotta take a lot of patience. How long did this take you?

medli20 In reply to Triforce-Kun [2011-03-24 04:25:57 +0000 UTC]

Aww, thanks! I'm kind of tempted to draw Grimm wearing a full mini-version of Thax's outfit, lol.

I've been working on this one on and off for about a week; I have this ritual where I HAVE to work on a drawing for about half an hour each night before going to bed. This was my "before-bed" drawing for a while, up until I was like "screw it" and finished the rest of it all today. I don't know how much time it took in total, but I'd say about 5-6 hours or so? I'm not entirely sure. xD;

Triforce-Kun In reply to medli20 [2011-03-24 04:37:55 +0000 UTC]

Do it for the lulz xD There's something to doodle if you get bored or something, lol.

that's actually a pretty good ritual. Gets you to make time for drawing each day. I like that.

Daaaamn. That's how long I used to spend on my digital pieces before I discovered the pen tool (which then made the process longer). I suck at cross-hatching hard, so I never would've had the patience for something like this. I applaud you xD

medli20 In reply to Triforce-Kun [2011-03-24 04:47:07 +0000 UTC]

Now the question is: should it be pre-creepy Grimm or post-creepy Grimm?

It's more of an OCD thing than something I do willingly, lol. xD

Wow, is it that long, really? O.o I might be underestimating the time I spent on this, lol. Thanks so much!

Triforce-Kun In reply to medli20 [2011-03-24 04:58:00 +0000 UTC]

Maybe post-creepy since you drew pre-creepy Grimm with Thaxter's hat here?

Well, it's a better OCD quirk than others, lol.I've got some that are...well, not weird, but a bit much.

Yeah, I usually take about eight hours or so to fully ink and color a digital piece. That's probably because I use the mouse because I don't have a good tablet, though I'm currently borrowing one from a friend.

Semi-creepy smile makes me giggle.

It's interesting to see what they were like.
Also, I really like the branch frames. They're both weird and endearing at the same time. They also seem to represent how things were before they were creepy because the branches themselves are still alive and well and look relatively healthy, but if you imagine them dead they become gnarled and pointy and generally scary.

medli20 In reply to ifAnyoneCould [2011-03-24 04:18:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I like the branch frames too, though I really only put them there because I felt it would frame the picture nicely. xD I hadn't thought of any deep meaning to them, but I really like your interpretation!
