Every few years remember about the Metal Gear franchise, go through the games, read the lore again. This year I found the MGS1 artbook I got when I was 11, and now not being 11 and looking back through it I’ve really gone on a journey of wonderment and confusion looking at the early versions of everything. LET ME SHOW YOU HOW:
Extreme Fishin’ Miller
Casual Snake
Rad Liquid & Sad Liquid
Good ol’ Faceless Frank
Mantis concepts feat. such strong looks as ‘lunchbreak’, ‘invisible handcuffs’, and ‘dick sounds’.
Otacon and Otacon run through a tiny face filter.
/These/
Snake-Meryl (Sneryl) and Flamethrower Mei Ling who I am ASHAMED do not exist
Utterly terrifying Veiny Raven and less terrifying Mange Raven
And of course, Punk Rock Mantis.
30 minutes line of action. i think i improved a lot shapes-wise, even 1 minute ones often look coherent to me.
idk what i did to achieve it, it just became like this few days ago. well, i hope it isn't just as easily reversible, haha
another low effort johnny bravo x kid named peace redraw
monsoon eating soup drawn by another person, i'd like to tag her but she only has telegram channel https://t.me/sexion51 (18+)

i guess drawing this guy the other day paid off bc this is the best i have managed to make to date. didn't actually take me 25 minutes, i was doing it for ~20 extra minutes bc i liked how it was going so far and wanted to finish. might return to it later and fix it a bit more.
i am satisfied with the 5 minute guy and not satisfied with the 5 minute lady at all, as well as the 10 minute lady except for hair which is my most decent attempt at conveying long hair structure so far.
epic
if i didn't already have my breaking bad meme apron i would consider stealing this idea. pw grilling is one of my favourite little features
could you draw venom snake or naked snake with rodents? i like how rodents are a recurring theme in mgs: snake's "friends" in mgs1, a picture of gerbil fulton in the chopper in mgsv, a closet full of venomous hamsters that instakill you in mg2, edible rats in mgs3 etc. i choose to believe that bog boss is deliberately filling every mother base with rodents. could you depict him engaging in activities with them? could be extracting rodents from the field, being covered in rodents, petting them, observing each other, engaging in feral behaviour together - anything, i just think that'd be cool
you really had me pondering about the mgs rodent lore & then I realized Raiden is once again a different Codename Snake Bearer as there are no rodents in mgs2 (nor mgrr either as far as I know) ... he gets water bugs instead
today's line of action. got some clothed pics for the long ones for change - glad that i can draw clothes better than before.
i am reaching the point where i get frustrated at being not good enough more than i have fun, but i think i will get through it since i have company and drawabox exercises that aren't portrait drawing.
heck yes, coercing my roommate into drawing miller by yapping about him all day every day! >]
kazuhira miller for my roomie bc the guy cant stop talking about kazuhira miller
i can see i'm subscribed mostly to western people bc the posting rate was higher on christmas than it is tonight, thus indicating they seem to have the awkward family celebration on 25th rather than 31th
how to post a sketch:
1. draw it
2. take a picture
3. compare to the reference
4. find gajillion mistakes
5. try to fix it
6. unless too fed up with it, return to step 2
7. try to fix it with some details you don't really see on the reference but that would convey the thing
8. take a picture
9. congrats on noticing some parts are weird, fix it and return to step 8 unless it's no fun anymore
10. now you're less satisfied with it than you were before taking the first picture, but it looks a lot better
11. the picture angle is wrong btw or it's blurry, retake (:
12. gl cropping it lol
13. post it
14. fix some stuff, take another pic and edit your post
15. 2 minutes of high excitement
16. stop thinking about it forever
i feel vain doing all that just to post my doodles but it is worth it bc i'm glad i like them and would like to post good clean photos. also it's fun to compare the first and the last version
cw nudity and suggestive images. he/him, 🇺🇦, born 1999. posting bad art bc it is the way to posting good art. you should post your art now!
