The Boy
First attempt. Was afraid his hair was going to be a nightmare and well... I wasn't wrong.
... I could doodle this whole day and who knows if I'd get it right. So here.

For the Artist Ask:
6, 9, 14. & 17.
Thank you! I didn't answer sooner because yesterday was a rough day but now let's answer!
6."Which artists inspire you right now?"
Oh that's a trick one because I don't remember names (I separated blogs by colors normally) but from my memory I inspire myself on @buggachat @makumakuma-03 @magpie-allosaurus @deadlycomics @sofilandstuff you @billiejean485 and others but i can't remember the names right now.
9."what are you currently trying to improve?" Anatomy and perspective, I'm trying to improve my best on those because I feel my art is very static and there's no feeling of movement on them, so yeah I'm losing my mind on those two XD
14."how has your art changed over the past years?"
I feel like I changed a lot over the years, I'm always going back and looking at old art and bringing old concepts to see if I changed much, like this is my old art:
And this is my new one:
I think I changed a lot on colors and clothes in general on my drawings and as I said i changed a lot on my anatomy, I changed a lot in the past years on that and I'm pretty proud of myself.
17."what inspires you?"
Movies, music, cultural aspects of my country, books all of those really inspires me especially music because is always where I go when I have art block. Now which types of them is normally horror, magic, deep thoughts on life, cute things too etc.

I am sorry, but I have to send this your way:

Because you're killing me. I'd LOVE to see your fanfics out there one day, in whatever language!
Feel free to ignore the linked post if you're not interested in reading, because I know it is a long one.
Best of wishes!

@billiejean485 this one's for you:
Hamster's name is either gonna be Hamster Fu or Master Fur but Master Fu doesn't deserve to have a pet named after him but knowing these two... Plus you think Adrien won't use a perfect chance to give his baby hamster a pun that only him and Marinette understand instead of a normal name?! You bet!

Dude WHERE do your find your "x is the bh6 equivilant of y" things??? I'm??? How do you connect the dots??
The short answer is that I do a lot of exhaustive, unnecessary research.
That’s also the long answer, too. XD
(Warning: This post is long.)
One of the things that I always keep in the back of my mind is that even though there isn’t the fancy Marvel introduction that they have on all of their shows, Big Hero 6 is still a Marvel property. They’ve had their own series and even showed up to help Spider-Man during the “Ends Of The Earth” event:
So with it being Marvel, it affords all of the opportunities to throw little nuggets to tease the audience.
Now, I have no proof that the following is intentional, or anything more than just a shout-out because I don’t think they actually can do direct Marvel references since the show is a Disney Original (don’t know how it works), but if you squint, the shadings of the Marvel mythos are still there.
Examples like:
1.) Karmi either being a shout-out or a direct counterpart to Kamala Khan (which I’ve discussed before at length)
2.) A blond-haired woman with power and smarts that she’s in awe of for a long time before having a falling-out with?
Oh, you thought I was talking about Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers).
Nope, I’m talking about Liv Amara.
(Yes, I know that’s Di, but go with me on it.)
Liv Amara.
AA LivMar
Marvil.
Like...c’mon.
3.) What Karmi gets turned into?
You can’t tell me that’s not a re imagining of a Skrull.
4.) Momakase’s transformation into...whatever that was? Obviously a shout-out to Lady Deathstrike.
5.) The one that I theorized more recently about Juniper being a reference to Dazzler:
6.) And then there’s Boss Awesome, which while not immediately recognizable, his reputation and success screams Captain America (sans shield, of course):
7.) Not to mention the fact that Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic) and Dum Dum Dugan are in the movie (granted as pre-release material). They show up in Fred’s recommendation letter:
8.) And if you even want to go further, you can see Callaghan and Granville as mirrors of Nick Fury and...Nick Fury from S.H.I.E.L.D.
Two people as the all-knowing heads of their institutes. I can see it.
So the stuff is there. You may have to squint or turn your head to the side a little bit, but it’s there.
@iamaddictedtocoffee and @billiejean485 have gone over a lot of this stuff with me, and they’ve even opened my eyes to some of the similarities to Marvel characters.
If @baymaksu has a Uno Reverse AU, then the regular Big Hero 6 Universe is...a Wild Card? You can change the color, but it still is the same gameplay.
That’s why I like to include other Marvel characters in my story, like Robbie, Peni, Doreen, Kate, and others. Because if you really look at it, they’re not really that out of place.

Some of you might remember that back in the day I used to love drawing Chat Noir a lot. However... what happened happened, and I lost all motivation for that. However, it's been coming back to me lately, especially ever since I started focusing on the concept art more. (Nathanaël Bronn is amazing man!)
So... I finally came round to share my artistic endeavor and a try to apply a more realistic style (with obvious fail). However... I know a cake is a cake to the fandom anyway, so here you go:
... One of the oldest attempts. Obvious lack of space between the eyes - something that I generally struggle with when drawing humans.
Then I thought I'd finally go back to drawing poses. Figuring this one out took too much, so I left it there for some other time.
This was the first one whose direction I started to like. So I kept pushing it.
FINALLY a pretty realistic one! But I still need to work out so much.
This one is more cartoony, and I probably pushed the expression too far. But oh well - gotta learn from your mistakes... (I still like how smug he looks though.)
After a longer pause I finally continue.
I think I hit the pose here, but when I started to draw in... I realized how little I know about anatomy. Back to the basics!
I thought: maybe I should try using a screenshot as a reference, and start going towards realism there. This was phase 1. I have yet to continue building upon it.
... Time flies by and I get the urge to just sketch poses again. So I start up an AI prompt generator I made for this purpose and, well... I get one to draw him in this ballet pose. How quaint.
I realize once again that I'm going to have one heck of a time if I start going into detail - and just with his head - so.... I go back to the drawing board.
Little study of his hair.
I still don't get it.
But I decide to wing it anyway and.... here's the result.
That's the last one for now y'all. I hope I'll manage to draw more. Although... figuring out how to draw him realistically is going to take me a heck of a lot of time. And practice. And study. Anatomy AND canon models.
So... wish me luck!
I hope you enjoyed these at least.

Well, my final opinion of ML Season 5's ending:
Honestly, I am now in it just to find out what Lila's deal is.
I give up on Adrien's Senti-arc. Astruc is going to milk that to the max.
.... God, I hope Jeremy manages to save this....
Otherwise, this franchise is doomed.

Open Request
Taking in a single request to work on for a limited time!
I don't know for how long - probably as long as I have the time and possibility to do it (which can be just today or a few more following days).
This time, I'll draw anything, not just fan art.
As I still don't have a list of what I don't do, you can send in any requests.
Because of that, you can send in as many requests as you want too. I'll probably go with the 'first comes, first serves' rule but, to be fair towards everyone if I get more at once, I'll randomly pick among the people that sent them, so - don't send anonymous requests. They're the last things I'll look at.
I'd prefer if you'd send them via DMs, so I wouldn't have to find all of your messages in the Asks. Feel free to spam me as much as you want BUT - put a "REQUEST/S" title at the top if you want me to look at them for that purpose. I don't have a lot of people messaging me now, but it'll help to not get overlooked for the duration of the Open period.
If you have multiple requests, either note me which you'd like the most or I'll pick a random one among what you sent (maybe I'll pick a favorite topic if it's hard for me to choose, but I'll try to avoid that). You can send in new requests as long as this is open.
As for what to ask for: currently I am looking for something that would only take me about half an hour to 2-3h to make - I am struggling with health issues right now and I'm not in a place where I can tell how much free time and energy I'll have, so it has to be like this.
And for which medium I use - I mostly opt for quick traditional sketches, but if I can, I'll try to use digital tools. I'll let you know when I pick you (or you can just tell me your preference).
If you've sent me requests in the past and I haven't neither done them or responded back to why I haven't, feel free to send them in again.
If a person I pick doesn't respond within a few minutes after I reply to their request, I'll have to roll the dice again. I know this is very unfair, but I don't have time to lose currently. However, this will only happen if I have more questions about what you want me to do - so I urge you to be as detailed and as clear about what you want as possible.
To get a glimpse of what my art looks like - you can use the #my art and #billiejean485 tags on my Tumblr blog, or go to my DeviantArt (I'm BillieJean485 there too) to see some of my old stuff (it's from years back, but I have immeasurably more there than I have here).
... I guess that should be it.
Okay - ready, set - GO!

No but for real - even with all that's happened in the show that I absolutely hate - I can't help but still be happy that Corona (or something else) didn't take me so I couldn't see these moments we witnessed today.
Such a small thing that reminded me to be thankful I'm alive. XD

Why have I not contributed with a single fan art to ROTTMNT you ask?
Well, it's quite simple.
THE ART STYLE IS SO OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE I'D HAVE TO PRACTICE FOR MONTHS TO GET IT RIGHT

... I know I said I would riot if Kagami is a Senti too,
but I am currently so physically, psychologicaly and emotionally drained by my private life that I didn't have the strength to even comment on the thing...
... And somehow... I didn't feel like I need to either.
It's sad; it's tragic; it's more than questionable writing on the creators' part - but I just can't anymore. I've finally become numb to the whole thing.
I'm waiting for my Exit Door to appear when I finally get repulsed enough to stop watching the show.
... Still hanging by that last thread of hope for a miracle. It's probably gonna be in vain, but oh well - I wouldn't be able to be at peace with myself if I didn't wait for it to snap on its own.
