[doublepost=1534571152][/doublepost]I like making mock cover art for songs that I don't think I'll be covering anytime soon lmao

Ghost Rule ft. Akai Deco ! (Deo's genderbent + sister) They're the first UTAU I ever made,, but I only made them private since I was embarrassed with the crappy recording I did with the cheapest mic ever combined with hella tons of background noise

But on the bright side, I'm now working on their new voicebank !!

I can't compromise with a lazy thumbnail for one of my UTAU covers and since I didn't even bother to do a video for it, I made it up with a full artwork

Listen to Augustus' cover of Ren'ai Yuusha on my SoundCloud !

NOTE: REALLY HUGE PICTURE || View it on DeviantArt :: Retweet it on Twitter

Line art takes me forever too, I really understand the struggle. I've never ever been any good at it and I have to zoom in.. like, a lot. I'm very heavy handed so my lines are really inconsistent and I spend 20 minutes lining a face. Line work takes the longest for me out of anything else, I think.

In any case, I really love your art... like.... a lot. Please please hit me up if you ever open art trades or something, I'd love to trade with you. (Examples of my art here.)

Worked on a fanart of Eleanor Forte from SynthV during my stream earlier ! I'm really glad on how it turned out,, and how my overall process went ! Especially the lines !!

Usually when I do lineart it takes me y e a r s (not literally, but close--jkjk) to do so, but I did this in just about 3 hours from sketch to base colours with minimal breaks in-between. Also more intricate details- especially for the hair aaa

Go watch the stream archive on my Twitch account ! and maybe give me a little follow..? ; w ; Thank you !

Am I finally in the SynthV hypetrain? lmao

Drawing a manly? D.SUE is very refreshing to do :' D Sometimes even I have to remind myself that they're a male lmao (Though technically they're gender-neutral since they're not really human... which reminds me to work on their character bios too)

Been a while huh, been so busy with school orz (and my midterms are this week!! WHEEZES)

Here's a sketchof my UTAU-to-be (who will never be), Natsu !
unknown.png

As her name suggests, she's a bright person (in terms of personality, not brains lmao) and her voice is supposedly powerful-sounding but nooo I can't do that so she's just an OC now ;__;

They're both like fairies- D.SUE's a land fairy while the lady on the right is a water fairy ~~ This doodle is just basically to test on how to draw water, it's my first attempt !!

D.SUE really doesn't mind if he was referred to as a female (accidentally or on purpose) as long as it's not mockery/an insult to him

Sketched a bust of D.SUE's initial design from 2013 !

<copypaste from my twt post orz>

Back then, they were really meant to be a joke UTAU- A male chara w/ a specially annoying feminine-sounding voice and looks

With D.SUE's new design, I fixed up their lore a bit and now they're no longer just a joke UTAU, but a precious one!

My UTAU's anniversaries are side-by-side; it's a bit difficult to properly work on something to commemorate them but I love my UTAUs so much TT

August is the month of Augustus ! He celebrated his birthday on the 13th and his 1st anniversary on the 16th !!
