Drawing off model or exaggerating faces are the best

Every year I make birthday art for two ocs of mine who are twins. Cerise and (not yet posted) Valentine V. Amaranth. These two are ocs that mean a lot to me and I've been working on their story since I was 13.

They have a story that takes place during a fictional city in Kansas in 2015 but if they were to be aged up today they'd be turning 46. Holy are they old lmao.

They mean the most to me since they kinda helped me understand my own self while being able to express and learn more stuff about what I'm interested in which is deep story telling and I feel like I grew up with these ocs. Especially Cerise. He is a man I take a lot of love for because I remember first making him when 13 and going through many things and even making friends with the character and have great and fond memories while having ones less great but I'd never exchange anything. He is my longest and oldest work and this will soon be the 5th year of his creation and I can't believe it.

Anyhow these two share the same day as my own b-day also and I'll be turning 17 and hope to make more good art in all aspects of story telling or casual means.

That means my ocs B-days are May 23rd.

Also this is unrelated just made an art filler for this post.

Honestly i got other work coming soon but this was one I was doing but stopped and thinking if I should continue it as this contains more Timothy art.

I been wanting to start and express more visually my own art and characters while also my own mind. Included that I developed into a more grung-Invader Zim/JTHM edged inspired work and be also more clean and fun. Well i was always inspired by works like Jhonens old work and stuff from Alan Ituriels Villainous series. Huge fan of those edged styles with visual character design or a "visual" huge style base on how to draw characters with a rule of sorts. As hope though this gets good input.

It's nothing but an update for art. For now, have a doodle of something related to such to some extent and other works.

I promise more content will arrive.

I'm working on my next peice, yet I'm getting tired so I am stopping for the night.

I been non stop drawing all day and like to admit I may or may not post it in my usual style shown so far but with a more clean coloring, depends my mood. My usual style here is messy, almost like a fragmented memory and grudged look. Yet private works outside my story I present in my art is clean.

I may just keep it in a messy shaded way to keep up with my usual style so far (I actually can do both clean and messy shading on sense of coloring).

If anyone comments their opinion if I should keep it to my usual style here vs clean, say such. I'm going to bed for the night. Will check in morning/as soon as I wake up.
