Aster!

Posted Dec 22, 2022, 6:15:45 PM UTC

This is Aster! They are non-binary, and an Apied. This means a human-bee hybrid. They come from a town called Vibrano and are currently traveling in search of a new home. At Vibrano, Aster was often told to constantly be helpful or else they had no purpose, this makes Aster easily manipulated. They are often overwhelmed by their own promises and unachievable goals. Aster is 15 years old and has a little sister named Poppy, and Aster plans to go back to Vibrano to get Poppy once they have found a new place to call home. I hope you like Aster!  Please give constructive criticism or any ideas for Aster and their story! ❤️

    Hey there! I like Aster. You don't see many bee-human hybrids around. Very cute. Nice work on the character as well. Relatable :')
    The expression in this piece is great! I love the was their eyes sparkle and the positioning of their arms and hands emphasizes the look on their face!


    I noticed that the coloring goes outside the line art in a few places. What medium do you use? Some things, like watercolor, are very hard to control and take a lot of practice. This looks like some sort of marker, though? As artists we can practice purposeful and careful mark making to help alleviate mistakes in traditional mediums. Here is a tip to help with that:
    Be aware of what pivot you are drawing from. Most people naturally draw from their wrist, like writing. But you can also make strokes using your elbow or shoulder. Drawing from the wrist is good for small and detailed strokes, while drawing from your shoulder is best for longer and smoother lines. Drawing from your elbow is kind of like a middle ground!

    I like how you shaded the neck area in the line art.
    Overall, very nice piece, and I'm excited to see more from you!

      Thank you! I use mostly Copic, but also some other markers. I was drawing on a paper that bleeds a bit since it was just in my main sketch book! These tips are really helpful, thank you!

        Ahh gotcha! In that case, you could look into getting a multimedia sketchbook? They're my favorite, typically handle whatever I put them through.
