Had another jumble of ideas for these two (and a random taker on stream) but fuckers in stream distracted me lmao. :gun:

Will get to it eventually. maybe next weekend. It’ll just be something nice for Fei since it’s been a while. (just some service for the boy!)

Nice chill stream Sunday drawing up the OCs.

Kammi (kitsune) and Fei belong to me

Something I’ve struggled with personally and so seeking out a fellow artist who’s clearly ahead of the game, have you ever agreed to a commission that you have no drive to do? Or rather, nothing about it excites you I suppose? how do you find that inspiration? Is it as simple as just plowing through, or is there sort of psyching up you do to get yourself going? It’s been incredibly frustrating.

Ah, I’ve taken on pieces I’ve had no drive for more times than I wish I did. But bills and family at the time pushing their own financial troubles onto me kinda left me with no say without feeling like complete shit.

When you start off and you’re following isn’t very big. You kinda HAVE to take what’s given to you at the time. It’s just how it is for almost everyone especially those with a small paying audience or just starting. So I did not exactly have the luxury of picking & choosing like I do now.

Not sure how to help with the inspiration bit, since I’ve recently just complained about art not too long ago but got back the inspiration. I’m a commission artist. I draw more for work than I do myself.  (It does fall under what you said though, psyching myself up!)

What helped me get inspired/get back to drawing was just actually taking the time out / setting a day to just draw things I always REALLY wanted to draw but have been avoiding to do because of obligations. Even if it wasn’t every idea. just some were enough! I’m already a messy artist, being even more messy/scribbly wouldn’t hurt.

Like, straight up drawing the ideas out regardless if they were messy/incorrect/dumb. Getting them out got me most pumped to keep on drawing.

Warmed up earlier today doing some doodles on an NC server I hosted with some art friends. Just compiled/cropped a bunch of the Fei’s, colored up a few that I drew! (nyanchat, it’s basically open canvas / drawpile with friends )

Still getting use to this new tablet.

I want to NC/OC more. Forgot how fun it can be sometimes drawing with other artists and nyanchat’s tools aren’t that bad.
