something to hold y’all over while I work on other things, plus I just wanted to make you all fall in love with this oc because he’s the best + I’m trying to develop his world some more
look mobile users can zoom in without crying now, use the arrows at the bottom of the screen to change pics :)
This is the progression of my oc chase! These are in chronological order <3
Digital
1 - first reference/design ever
2 - the same but he’s a superhero, I’ve improved a lot since this!!
3 - zoomed in! I hate this so much but the hair is kinda nice tho
4 - some splash art if you will, exploring the new oc
5 - rahhhhhh
6 - anatomy wack
7 - WOMAN CHASE!?!? New icon too
8 - closeup lol. Genderbend for fun but it still is just kinda weird looking. Would you believe me if I said I didn’t use references for this one? Because u can tell
9 - him, anatomy wack
10 - him closer
11 - about to punch someone
12 - he’s so pretty
13 - NEW REFERENCE RAHHHHHH LETS GO
14 - HES THE COOLEST
15 - NEW COSTUME DESIGN
16 - newest drawing of the mans, referenced from a pose I found on the interwebs
17 - different colors
18 - different colors again
19 - closeup, not sure which version I like the best. I hate drawing actual teeth
20 - still from my most recent map part
21 - another! Definitely a little more cartooney than my normal style but animation is hard cut me some slack
Sketches
22 - oldest rando sketch of him, anatomy be damned
23 - sketch page but I actually used one of them
24 - not explicitly chase but another sketch page, hes a little generic looking
25 - prettyboy / sus??
26 - no pen pressure sketches are weird
27 - pretty sure these r really old, thought about him having like shaved sides for his hair
Traditional sketches
28 - expression sheet but I’m bad at drawing
29 - initial planning for his first reference sheet, very first drawings of this man to exist
30 - ^^
31 - LOL I DONT KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING WITH THE CHEEKBONES ON THIS ONE
And that is all thanks for playing
song - supermassive black hole (muse)
art and character are all mine
program - procreate
hardware - iPad Pro 2020 11”
And the zoom in code is of course made by @colorsnatch but you probably already know that bit
my entire motivation to learn to draw men comes from this one guy, im being completely serious
#art #artdump #superhero
for those who are still around I’m working on his backstory and it is tragic so far LOL, he had a brother who was also a superhero but some silly silly things happened and chase had to unalive him for the greater good. he regrets it every day and is a worse person for it. My characters can’t have nice things
I think I want his universe to be set a little bit in the future so there’s futuristic tech and villains and things. Most of it takes place in a future version of Atlanta because I’ve decided he’s a Georgia boy hehe, I just don’t have much besides him having a dead brother, haven’t decided how or when he got his powers yet or anything, a lighting strike seems too much like the flash tbh
Maybe him and his brother got them at the same time or something? Got lost at sea during a storm? I want it to be weather related
Also not sure about the rest of his family
Thinking about making a pmv or amv to tell chases backstory once I finish thinking about it
if anyone has any cool ideas for other parts of his backstory I am here for it!! I need more content, lmk what you think :0
fun fact originally chase was going to be a detective who would investigate the aftermath of the fights and crime scenes that his superhero self would make, honestly wondering if that’s just a better idea/ story lol
