S7 Mumbo Jumbo Cosplay Coming Soon :3 (wip)

[Day 7]: Mumbo

Have a lil doodle cause im quite busy with school stuff! Hermitcraft art rqs coming soon :>

Sharing this bc I need to rant about the absolute chaos the process of making this was

1st pic: sketch of the face. 2nd: finished version

Basically, our teacher realized we had to make sth for a gallery she forgot about and decided we would quickly draw coal figures inspired by / copying Käthe Kollwitzes artworks*

Since I'm rlyyy behind on our current big/main project, I had to rush this coal drawing in like an hour. (other students had 1-6 hours) and well.. Rushing a life sized coal drawing is def not a good idea wkdhkwej

EXCEPT. That's not we're the chaos stopped. Not only did i forget my coal eraser at home, but i also realized after making the sketch that this WASNT coal, it was chalk, which u can barely erase... (It was 7am alr, i was too tired to notice i was using a different black stick than usually-)

Usually when i use coal, i apply a bit much at first & then use my eraser to create value, but now that obviously wouldn't work... Not only that, but by the time i realized you couldn't erase this properly, i was already done with most of the sketch...

(* is bellow)

*kind of like a collage, but instead of cutting them out we drew life sized version with coal. We also arranged them differently than in her artworks & used figures from multiple of her artworks.

Ik that online, "copying" other artists tends to be a bit controversial, but most art schools use it a LOT, since it's a great way to learn from more experienced artist! ("why reinvent the wheel if someone else already did it for u already?") It's just for studying tho and we don't pretend it's our original artwork/idea or sth... That would just be plagiarism LMFAO

Actually i wanna rant about this more at some point bc i do not like how the whole tracing drama influenced the online art communities view on learning from other artists...

I didn't realize how BAD my hyperfixation/spin had gotten until i saw Etho had uploaded and imideatly fucking freaked out, dropped everything i was doing and SPRINTED towards my ipad to watch the new video.

ANYWAYS

HOLLY SHIT HE UPLOADED!!! THERE'S A NEW HERMITCRAFT VIDEO. HOLLY SHIT!!! LETS GOOOO!!! HES BACK FROM MCCI!!!

Hmmmmmmm....

Drops octo!mumbo and runs

I hope you like it :D i actually started the sketch for this during the hermitaday challenge, but didn't rly have time to keep working on it during the challenge. As soon as i saw this request i knew i HAD to finally finish it :D

(close up + version w/o water effect thingy below!)

I decided to do a more painting like style for this, but for some fucking reason i also thought it would be a good idea not to use any blending tools or opacity stuff (excluding some final touches) and just... Do flat shading... While trying to pick everything from the colorwheel w/o like, mixing colors....

Did this exercise make me improve at using the digital color wheel? Yeah probably. But also this took wayyy too fucking long and i am never doing it this way again LMFAO

Joel rly said "Gosh, Etho is so obsessed with me 🙄" after receiving mail from him, and then proceeds to put said mail in a bookshelf next to his bed where he "keeps all of Etho's letters"

???? Sir????
