Makkon: :(

Makkon: hey this he heckin cute

Makkon: These are solid drawings!

Makkon: alright you got me, this is cute

Makkon: I really like this style

Makkon: They say emulation is the highest for of flattery, I'm not upset. I think this is a great drawing, but there's definitely some rough places where you didn't have reference (such as the legs and feet). Your proportions are good. Keep drawing and practicing, as you do you'll start to find your own artistic voice. Would definitely love to see more bender prequel characters!

Makkon: Solid drawing, love the cloth folds and anatomy!

Makkon: Great work, Pyriax! Hope to see more from you here!

Makkon:
Not bearing in mine stylistic differences, the pose you went with can be pretty complex, when I have a side view like this I like to draw the shoulders and pelvis like cylinders. Try to keep a clear path for the spine, mind where things attach. Also will take time, but work on your proportions. Definitely take some time to draw some straight-on side and front views for practice (from reference, or a chart) and then some 3/4 views. Later, draw lots of poses. I like to use sites like these (warning, artistic nudity)
https://anatomy360.info/anatomy-scan-reference-dump/ 3d scans of people from lots of angles
https://www.quickposes.com/en you can set up timed drawing sessions, if you force yourself to go with about a minute or less you can learn to draw the most important things about a pose as a "gesture" and you'll train your hand how to draw these shapes and poses.

Makkon: I meant to say Redline, my bad

Makkon: If you're open to feedback, Damrok, I can try putting together a redling/drawover. I generally don't offer feedback/criticisms unless someone asks for it.

Makkon: the real impression I'm getting from these is that most people here either really hate the new cloak, or just really really like the arena armor

Makkon: Nudity =/= porn. It's not a difficult concept. The intent behind the image matters

Makkon: is the prequel fandom okay?

Makkon: what a cute style!

Makkon: look, we know why you're here
Kaz asked for a single pose, but I usually bust one more than one so he can choose his favorite, and he couldn't choose. Quill-Weave was an unexpected afterthought

Makkon: original drawings I sent to kaz for the update

Makkon: @Geravind: what do you mean by the word CAN in this context? I legitimately do not understand what you are trying to say

Makkon: Absolutely spectacular work!

Makkon: added a few more drawings, inked and colored

Makkon: marvelous!

Makkon: @Filthypaladin: Thank you! legs are important to me, I try to make them work :)
@AMKitsune: Thanks! I'd argue that every Katia I've drawn is some variation of stylized (especially these), but as far as reasonably proportioned Katia I do try my best.

Makkon: some style experiment doodles while watching Kaz's stream before bed. Might ink and color them later. Sorry I never draw canon outfits.

Makkon: been going through some old files and projects and came across the chapel model I made for the Infiltrate update. The model was built (not to scale) in Maya, and imported and rendered in Unreal Engine 4. It's using some out of the box Distance Field Ambient Occlusion and Light Propagation Volumes because I didn't know how to bake lighting back then. The model was later painted over in photoshop and compressed to look like pixel art. The model has no ceiling, window frames, or front door/wall. These are some other lighting scenarios to show it off.

Makkon: @somethingsomething: I. Am. Not. Advocating. To. Support. Communism. If anything, communism has progressively stunted the eastern states which is why gay people don't have rights in Russia or China. When I suggest to show support, I mean solely for gay rights, not communist ideology. God damn, dude. You put so much effort into defending a system that wouldn't defend you if it was unprofitable.

Makkon: @somethingsomething: appealing to emotion to prove a point that I wasn't even arguing against is incredibly tiresome

Makkon: @somethingsomething: cool, if we're playing the obtuse game, I'm sorry to hear that the gay ideology killed your family

Makkon: hey while you're all arguing over what system has killed more people, I interpreted this image as a declaration for gay rights in Russia, which currently do not exist, and simply existing while being gay puts your life greatly at risk. So while you guys are making a numbers game of it, living people today need your support. So like. Show some support, or solidarity, not a pointless flame war about your state's economic religion.

Makkon: this is wonderful! Do they have a twitter or instagram I can follow? Sadly I don't have a patreon or fa

Makkon: yeah man, I dig this

Makkon: Nobody asked to see this, I just wanted an excuse to show the initial pose drawing. This was from June 2017. I wish I kept her left arm out

Makkon: Your rendering is getting better and better, Radian

Makkon: two cents that contribute to nothing, but I like talking about this subject. If we're looking for a point of reference here, I think the candy-cane picture is leagues more questionable than this (no offense Skoon), even though it features no nudity. The "appropriateness" of things can't be quantified into percentages of specific body parts visible. Context and intent is everything. Sure, the intent behind this one is still obviously horny, but it's quite a bit more tasteful juxtaposed to stand-out entries in the booru.

Anyways, do what you're comfortable with. Nice rendering.

Makkon: This is really good!

Makkon: @PermanentFace: I just find your...rather focused interest... on your dislike for this character and people who like her somewhat "borders on the obsessive." My suggestion for you is to just stop, please. The prequel fandom doesn't need shipping/fav wars akin to the Steven Universe fandom.

Makkon: @Kastor: No need for money! It's not my IP anyway so I couldn't sell it even if I wanted to. Here's a google drive link to a rar file containing the 8k PNG file. The image is about 200mb, uncompressed.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_43fV3l7J9g1IWo_Qxx6tAnnyvmX5UU3
Also, don't depend on this link to always exist. Drive occasionally breaks links, or I might have to clear up space in the future. Enjoy!

Makkon: @Shotgun_Observations: Kaz wasn't specific about the clutter. If you can imagine, there were a lot of other things we were more worried about.

Makkon: What the hell is going on in the comments here? Are people seriously, straight-faced shaming the artist/author for liking a flawed character? You guys should know that's the same thing as tumblr's "your fav is problematic."

Makkon: This is a perfectly natural progression and I approve

Makkon: @cardomajig24: I do! I have a few social media places.

Makkon: Second favorite piece to paint because ROCKS

Makkon: this was personally my favorite piece to paint, because I really love rocks

Makkon: HD deer gore. I even repainted the wall art.

Makkon: let me know if there are particular buildings you want closeups of, since I can't upload the full 8k^2 image

Makkon: cathedral and houses modeled in Maya before getting painted over. I'm a filthy cheater.

Makkon: this was painted a year before the other intro art, pardon the stylistic differences

Makkon: post your best bad anime CATption for this picture

Makkon: I unfortunately saved over the original resolution file, so all I have is the pixel version

Makkon: this is really great rendering!

Makkon: :(
