So this has been a very interesting couple of days. For starters, I'm no longer doing any sort of AI stuff on my Twitter/X account. I deleted all of it. It was partially out of the response (both positive and negative) of my AI art of Mr. Wolf, and made me realize I focused a little too much on that than with my own work. And I just don't want to be that guy who is known for making AI 'slop'. So I'm done with that. It was cool, but I'm gonna focus more on my art.
Afterwards, I wanted to get back into drawing. But more specifically, I wanted to get back into doing line art. I always struggled with it before so I ended up trying it out. Of course, I needed to sketch something first. I ended up redoing my Fursona's design. Before, it was a border collie. But now, I prefer a wolf design since I love anthropomorphic male wolf characters. I did an initial sketch but I always found problems with sketching myself as a more chubby fursona character. It just never looked right. So I looked at a few artist I watch like Takemoto Arashi, Rossiaco, Drks, etc. Their necks, shoulder, and arm were the main parts to focus. So I did a new sketch and honestly, it was perfect. It had the right amount of fluff on the neck and the arms and shoulders looked more defined.
Surprisingly, I found a way to make the line art without getting a massive headache. Mostly using the stroke property layer for the main outline and filled the rest of the details out with a pen. It was easy from there. And I love it. This feels so much like me. I even changed the name form Aeolus to Anemos. Both has meaning related to air or Wind, but Anemos just feels like a better name. And I made a new symbol for myself: A sort of mirrored crown with a sort of gem in the center. Kinda reflects my username 6spiritking. IDK, this feels like a sort of rebirth to me internally. Kinda dumb but it means something. I'll sketch another one with new clothes. I may also make an icon version for my account on both here and Twitter/X.
