Picture Saturday--Randomly Rapunzel

I spend most of this week being angry at my sketchbook.

And that started because I finished my nice sketchbook, and didn't realize I had come to the end of it until I turned the page and there were.... no more pages.


HORROR.

And between this, that, and the other, I was not able to get to an art store to get a nice sketchbook for about a week, which means I had to use my spare.

The spare is a cheap little thing with low quality paper.

I didn't realize how much nice paper meant to me until I was reduced to using not nice paper. I didn't want to draw on that paper! I didn't like that paper! It was too smooth! It was too shiny! It was like computer paper with gloss!


So every time I went to draw, I just got angry.

Not irritated, not frustrated.

Angry.

I think.... I think I might need help.

It's at times like this where I'm like, "Ooooooh, that's why I'm forever alone!"

I got a new sketchbook this morning, and was so happy, I drew all day. 'Cause.... reasons.

Right, let's go.


1.) One of those late night I-don't-even-care doodles that turned out way better than I meant it to.



2.) In Disneyland there was an appalling lack of Tangled memorabilia, and I guess it bothered me? (How on earth can I have 72 markers and not have the right color for her dress..... what is life?)



3.) The oh-my-gosh-I-hate-this-sketchbook. Seriously. It threw off my groove.




4.) I figured out that Tristan's bad guy has a metal hand. I'm sure there's a really important reason for him to have a weird metal hand, but he has yet to divulge that information to me.


5.) Kate with her perfect hair.....



6.) Really quick Stitch, 'cause Stitch is cute, in a creepy sort of way.



7.) Stitch prompted this, even though... I watched both Lilo and Stitch movies and Angel has yet to appear. Am I missing something?


8.) I totally drew Chloe and Toink sharing the jacket, because that crap was CUTE.




9.) Oh hai, Piero.



10.) Le colored Tristan kissing Kate, because I didn't want to draw in the sketchbook that sucked.



11.) The one where she's totally disproportionate, but she has such passion, I don't even care.

Aaaaand I-eee-Iiiiii! Will aaaaaalwayssss LOOOVE youuuuu!

12.) *Aggressively obsesses.*

Oh my, my, myyyyyy Delilah! Why, why, WHYYYY Delilah!

13.) Sudden! Urge! To draw Rapunzel!


14.) Oh oh oh! What about FLYNN!?


15.) What if.... I drew them.... together.. (Yeah, his head is on wrong, BUT WHATEVER, IT'S PRETTY.)



Aaaand that's all I've got this week, ladies. (And gents? Are there gents following me?)

Question time!
Favorite colored?
Black and white?
Favorite fanart?
Best gif usage?

Love you all!

  1. That last one gave me feels. Why is Tangled not online anywhere?! I've been dying to watch it again for months! (Back home we'd watch it at least once a month because my whole family liked it. It's been nearly a year since I've seen it. I can't take this.)

    Tristan's bad guy is way creeper on full screen then on my phone screen. And that hand....

    Flynn...wow. Seriously wow, you did good! Looks like the real him, and Rapunzel. I'm impressed.

    I've been sitting here trying to think of what else I meant to say.....It was something nice too. It's on the tip of my brain, way in the back. Oh well. I might remember just as I drift off to sleep.

  2. I REMEMBER! Angel is in the series thing they did, not the movies.

    The End

  3. STITCH! I love Stitch. Oh, and Angel is in the TV series. She gets, like, one episode. Why? I don't know.

    I really like that first one. It looks so effortless and yet just how do you do it!?

    Also, #8. They are so adorable! It must be fun to draw the people you know.

    And #13 of Rapunzel looks exactly like her. I really like it. As well as Tristan and his bad guy (who happens to be super creepy with that smirk and hand).

    1. "Stitch.... good!" And I was like, "ALL THE SUDDEN YOU'RE FREAKING ADORABLE. lol. (So what.... she's in it for one episode and everyone jumped on that ship??)

      I know! That first one, it was literally like 10pm, and I had an urge to draw, and I didn't care and it turned out so well, I was like "whoa, what is this."

      Mah li'l girls. lol... Thank you!

      Yaaaaaaaaay! I'm finally getting okay at copying from reference pictures and it makes me so ridiculously happy. (HIS SMIRK IS JUST... YASS.)

  4. Hey, you drew Flynn's nose just right!
    That villain's hand is downright creepy with such elongated fingers. I'll wager he has tasers built into them, or something.
    Favorite colored?-does number 9 count? I like it when there are leetle splashes of colour.
    Black and white?- # 12
    Favorite fanart?-# 13, nicely done hair.
    Best gif usage?- both Luke ones. That was brilliant, just brilliant!

    1. Hahah! I UNDERSTAND THAT REFERENCE.
      Aw yiss, I wanted it to be creepy, and long, long fingers have always given me the heebie-jeebies, so I was like, "mhmm long fingers it is." (Ehehe, tasers...)
      I think #9 counts. (Piero's kind of known for his ridiculous red glasses and it's adorable.)
      (That's my favorite too, because it actually looks like Ignazio and I'm thrilled by it. XD XD)
      AW thanks!
      Hahaha why thankee verra much. :)

    1. AWWWWW REALLY???? THANKS!
      #10's color was just like... so easy to do, because I know their colors so well i can do it without thinking, and that's weird for me.
      Awwww thank you. XD *forgets what 8 was.* *scrolls up* OOOOOH Chloe and Sammmmmm.
      Hahaha! That first Luke gif, I put in and snorted like "haha, I'm so freaking hilarious..."
      OKAY I WILL SEE WHAT I CAN DO, I WANT TO DRAW MORE DISNEY, BECAUSE THEY'RE FUN AND THEY'RE SO OVER EXAGGERATED IT'S GOOD FOR REFERENCE. XD

  7. Okay, I'm sorry you ran out of nice sketchbook paper, but the Luke gifs put a hilarious spin on the situation!

    #1--Ooh, so fun! The pencil stuck through her bun is a great touch! She looks like a happy-go-lucky creative type. (Isn't it great when sketches just turn out well?)

    #2--Her hair turned out great! And this is my favorite colored (I never have *just* the right shade of paint or pencil either, grr.)

    #3--*sympathy* But I think the sketch turned out well (is it Kate?)

    #4--Characters are sometimes slow to open up to you, aren't they? It's both intriguing and frustrating.

    #5--Love Kate's ponytail and smooth hair/bangs!

    #8--CUTE!!!

    #11--Ooh, I especially like this one. This is probably my favorite overall (but as usual, it's so hard to pick!)

    #12--Wow, that one is good!

    #13--FAVORITE FANART!! Seriously, that is good! Well, all these drawings are. :-)

    1. Hahaha, thank you. I was sitting there writing and getting all like, "hahaha, I'm so funny."

      1.) HA! You noticed the pencil! That's cause I use pencils in my hair sometimes and it seemed very applicable. (It's so nice.lol.)

      2.) Aw thanks! (The problem is, copics are kinda super pricy though, so I don't really have the money to get the *right* color.)

      3.) Mmmm no, that's not Kate.... I mean I guess it could be, but she's stiiiiiff and I don't like it. lol.

      4.) He's lurking in the back of my mind, like, "Mwuahaha, some day I will tell you my evil plan, but it is not this day!"

      5.) Her hair is so sleeeeek.

      8.) I KNOOOOOOW!! LOL.

      11.) Wow, really? She looks funky to me. lol.

      12.) IGNAZIOOOOOOOOO.

      13.) HER HAIR TURNED OUT SO PRETTY, AND THEIR POSE IS CUTE AND I TOTALLY JUST COMPLIMENTED MY OWN WORK, WHO DOES THAT.

  8. tangled yes, love the movie and I didn't even mind the singing as I'm not a big fans of musicals. great rapunzel drawings & flynn rider too, I really like the actor's voice in this role. you're certainly better at drawing guy faces than me, mine was ended looking a bit like a girl.

    & I totally agreed with you about paper. sometimes they are important especially when you sometimes erase and the paper gets all crinkled up and there's no fix but better paper does produce better results or something like that.

    have a lovely day.

    1. Yeah, it's so good. :) (It depends on the musical though...) Thank you! Flynn is fun to draw, 'cause his hair is fabulous. ;) (Me too! Their voice actors were so good!) It took me a loooong time to get good at guy faces, so be patient!

      Right!? Thank you! Nice paper just works better with the medium and it's so frustrating when you get used to that chemistry and you are all of the sudden WITHOUT IT.

      You too! ;)

  9. Heheh. Wow, I really like all your drawings this time! I don't think I have a favorite. You seem to be able to draw people in different positions, but they still look relaxed and happy. My drawing are never like that. I can "draw" but my characters always look stiff and awkward. :)

    1. Awwwwwww yisssss! Haha, thank you!!
      Well it's taken me a long time to get to the fluid look in my stuff. Even from a year ago, I've gotten more relaxed... Seriously, you should check out some of my old art, because that stuff is hilariously bad. XD Motion is one of the hardest things to get the hang of, so don't be too hard on yourself. XD

  10. Favorite colored? Black and white? Favorite fanart? Best gif usage?

    I CAN'T CHOOSE!!! I love them all! Especially the Tangled drawings! #13 looks exactly like her and #15 is just amazing and adorable and I love how you did her hair in #2!

    My other faves are the one of your nieces (SO ADORBS), the singer lady (SO DETAILED), and IGNAZIO (IT LOOKS JUST LIKE HIM!).

    Lol, I get angry at things like the paper thing frequently. Something I'm working on! Robert still loves me after outbursts like these though, so there is hope for you yet!

    Robert at least SEES your blog sometimes and he's a gent but he's not technically following you...

    The Luke Skywalker gifs were PERFECTION! They cracked me up XD

    Laters, dawling.

    1. YAAAAAAASS I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE CAN'T CHOOSE IT MAKES ME HAPPY. lol. hahaha, awww. (Okay yesssss. I'm getting the hang of copying from reference pictures and it's making me giggle.) Her hair is so fun to draaaaaw!

      (Cause my nieces ARE adorbs...) Wow the singer lady is popular and she's so funky looking! LOL. IGNAZIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

      lol Well yeah I think artsy people understand the trials of being *ARTSY*. (Robert is a good, understanding sort of person lol.)

      Well I think it counts anyway

      AW YISS, THEY AMUSED ME TOO.

      Laters. :)

  11. (She was seriously grumpy. I have never seen such a grumpy person while she had no notebook.)

    On the flipside, are you going to draw me Flynn and Rapunzel in their boat? You KNOW you want to.

  12. Computer paper with gloss? SAVE ME FROM THE HORROR. (And I say that with no hint of sarcasm. Gee.)

    I'm sure there's a super important reason for the creepy hand ;)

    I thiiink doodle #1 is my fave -- she's gorgeous! -- although Kate's hair IS perfect, and I love the last one, actually. Their hands are great.

    1. Hahah right? IT'S BAD.

      Me too, I just haven't figured it out yet, like... Why. No one tells me anything. *angry Treskie noises*

      Haha, #1 I think looks like Emily Watson. I like almost everything about the last one except Flynn's head. XD But THANKS. HANDS ARE TRICKY
