If I’m gonna have the blues, might as well make it funky for ya feed.

I watched some Naylissah tutorials to refresh myself on how to render afro textures since it’s been a while since I’ve practiced my c and s curls, especially digitally.

I’m a bit rusty, but it’s dope to me that the hair typing chart actually has a place, it just so happens to be in drawing/illustration vs hair care. I love that.

Also, how she breaks down shaping our noses/lips was a good refresher, so Lundi got an update.

shaping volume & conveying fullness is at the technical heart of it.

@andrarenee love how you do your piercings, its so cute!

and maybe its cause ive been watching a lot Of Steven Universe, but they feel like Garnet's cousins hehe

@imp3tuz merciiiii🫶

oh shit, I didn’t watch most of the show so I didn’t even know Garnet had 3 eyes!

yo, shout out to the crystal gem cousins out here lol I love that.

deux tutorials later and like magic I’m somehow applying 3D curl-cutting principles to the canvas. more on that plus tard.

If it’s not clear, I’m still opting to go pupil-free, it’s my jam and I have no intention on changing, but who knows lol

okay, midnight canvas is closed to visitors; the realms are calling 🥱

but before I go, a goodie for ya feed
