[2022] and just to set NG up for the vast jumps my art style tends to take, here's some portrait studies i did on stream in the EBF server! i used to draw portraits all the time and focused a whole bunch on realism but eventually delved more into stylizing my work and focused more on drawing poses, rather than just close-up faces all the time. i still don't really know what i really want to go for with my art style, but i find that as long as i get something that i or others like out, then it doesn't really matter too much for me.
