2021 Art Summary/Retrospective

Share

Since it is the end of the year I decided to do my art summary for 2021!

As a bonus since it's 5 years since Arcade Machine was made I made a timeline of his existence as well.


January - Spacey main drawing

While uploaded in February I did draw it back in January and saw the creation of Spacey who has remained a persistent OC that I like. His design had some tweaks but now he is in a great position


February - Snowy Situation

Yeah, not exactly the greatest drawing even by my standards but it was ambitious and I did like the choices I made. Really the drawing that got my foot in big time.


March - Logic Breaker

March was finally the month where I got the top of Arcade's head right and that made the drawing so much better. Perspective is easily one of the biggest things that improved. I also liked the expression here


April - Arcade at the Disco

The first in an OC drawing series for my Toyhou.se (Though not intentional at first) this has to be my favorite drawing since everything looks right even now compared to other drawings where I note mistakes I made after I post it.


May - Stare into the next objective

Aariyeh also got a good drawing from me I liked the prespective and he looked cool


June

OOPS NO ART! I didn't even realize I didn't post in June...


July - Da Boom Guy

The final of the Machine trio and I also liked this one. We were close to the end of the art redraws at that point


August - It's The Bomberman

My return to fanart of series and I have to say... It's good not the best and I would change quite a bit (Expect more Bomberman content maybe) and I needed to be more defined in terms of interpretation, still, I like it.


September - Do U want 2 trade?

Drew this while I was on a Toejam and Earl 3 kick and I originally tried to aim for a look just like the TJ&E3 model but I ended up making it more cartoony at the last minuite. I still like it though I seriously dont know what I did with the legs


October - Nuclear Plant Power

This one was hard to choose but I ended up picking this since this is my best fanart piece. Yet again based on another gaming kick I decided to draw Plant from Nuclear Throne. I still think this drawing is great


November - The Blossom Blader

November was when I finished Spacey's main friends and I picked this one since it looked better and it got some clout on Twitter (Cuz Woman).


December - Quick Dirty Christmas pfp

December was when I slowed down and took a bit of an art break cuz a video of mine was taking up all my time. Still, I managed to get something out and it's my first digital-only drawing too yay!

2021 looking back was a year of confidence, I got back into art and committed (compared to 2020) alongside balancing video work as well and since I got a drawing tablet for Christmas I expect more drawings to come out 2022 (maybe). Though at the same time since I am turning 18 in 2022 I might be too busy with the luggage that has like College. Expect another retrospective with video works and other stuff more overall at the tail end of the year. But other than that see ya'll later bye!
