Yep, I already have another one done. Because I started the last one I posted just yesterday. So I just added some finishing touches (like colouring in the socks and shoes). At least this one’s an actual new design. This is Logan! I call him The Enthusiastic Friend.

Yeah, what you need to know is basically in his title. I also hope you can see where I got his design inspired from. I think he looks like a nice guy. After all, he is shaped like a friend. And it doesn’t hurt to have some male characters who are chubby. I realized I don’t have a lot of them.

And with this design coloured and done, ignoring the doodles I have to colour in, I only have two more characters to create a starting design for. If I make changes, I’ll make sure that’s seen.

Coloured in the picture with McKenna next. I actually had a hard time with the hair and this is what I came up with. I like the idea of her being blonde and dyeing her hair black.

Also I really need to learn to use less blues. Though I hope it isn’t too distracting. I’m trying to use other colours… For the next one I’m working on, there’ll still be a blue but at least there’ll be mainly a different colour.

Also, as a quick note, it would seem my set of DR OCs have a frequency of shade of reds (with some exceptions) and this set of OCs has a large frequency of blues. Oh and I also decided that she does have a tattoo! On the back of her neck. I hope to doodle more of these guys an draw her with said tattoo.

Coloured in another one of the OC October doodles! This time, we have our local jinx Calvin.

He’s one character (and maybe the only?) whom I’ve given a Race Lift as he was originally intended to be lighter skinned but then I changed my mind. And I’m not upset I think it was a good idea he looks a lot better. I tried to make the colours as tacky looking as possible but I don’t mind this. I like how this came out! I’m very happy with this.

OC Fact 12

torihoshigirl:

Peter’s dad comes from the UK and for some reason decided to move to Australia. Five months living there, he lost one of his eyes because of magpies.

When Peter was younger, his older brother Jarrad convinced him to ask his dad if he was a pirate. His dad didn’t want Peter to be scared of birds by telling him the truth (even though it wouldn’t matter since he’d end up hating birds later on in life anyways), so he said he had to take care of his eyes or else they had the risk of falling out.

It wasn’t fun for Peter when his family learned he needed glasses since this scared him, making him think his eyes would fall out when he was an adult. And his mom wasn’t happy with his dad for telling him something like that.
