What can I say? I like torturing myself twice.
Welcome welcome welcome, if you haven't read my bio, I'm Eli, nice to meet you. Welcome to my artbook where I post my drawings, random writing, and my crazy future plans :D
I do traditional art mainly (...
Wow, it's 2024 already?! I can't believe it man. And that means getting a year older. Hopefully wiser as well. Anyways, without further ado...let me present my first drawing on 2024!

Anddd because I was in art block and I have no other drawings as of now, here's the sketching process as well.

First I found Onyxcrow's drawing (2023 Happy New Year one btw) and then I imported it into my drawing app on my phone. Then, I outlined the 'skeleton'. Normally I wouldn't do this but I didn't know how to draw the figure so I had to sort of "make" the skeleton myself. Also Google was being unhelpful and I couldn't find the base so--

Then I drew out the skeleton. It's not to bad considering I haven't drawn full body sketches for a really long time now. And the pose is better now so...improvement?
Side note about my 'skeleton' drawing: Once my cousin saw this and he went "Eh! Stickman!" Then my other cousin whose younger than both of us went, "Ahahahahaahha stickman! Stickman!" I swore I nearly killed them both. C'MON MAN! Anyways...

Time to flesh our 'skeleton'/stickman. We shall ignore that the hands aren't drawn yet.

Details and clothes. Ignore the fact that I drew eyes. It got too ugly so I removed them in the final drawing and placed the blindfold. Looks better anyways. And if you wonder if this is my persona, I guess it is somewhat. The first time I drew one was actually my first pfp I drew. (Honestly, my persona is like a fricking chameleon. I never decide how I want it to be.) Maybe if I feel motivation, I will draw my persona/OC.

Inked and markings are removed. We have the almost finished product! Also, I still can't draw hands. Or shoes. And the clothes look chewed on. Oops. I should have added wrinkles but eh, nvm. It makes it a better story for my persona.
And that's it folks! I hope 2024 is a wonderful year for all of us and that we can soon achieve peace. Bye!!!
