@@moodycasey5032 I’m sure what ever you have is great! Just keep going and remember if you need a break, take it. It’s always good to come back with a fresh mind!
its funny how your discord is the most toxic discord. ive been too. (the one who respect is an @sshole. and firefox kicks without thinking.) got called an idiot and banned because i complained about it. noice one ross draws. a friendly.. ugh toxic discord.
I know. I know he just did it to make a point but it’s a team of six. Not 5. She joined like a few episodes after Zuko. Show her show her some love Ross

Today I drew a character that I really liked, so I made her my first definitive OC, but I still want to tweak her a bit since she is still too generic. This might be my style since I go for the tv animation style, but I'll get there, she's very interesting and I already am building her personality
Oou I wish you good luck!!! I have a Brazilian OC, and I gave her superpowers (telepathy and radiation energy). I kind of have a semi-realistic/ecchi art style. But the best thing for Oc’s is to make a character sheets to determine the height, weight, and build. If you have an app like Pinterest, try making a character board filled with things that your character may be like. One idea could be OC board 1: design. You can put different ethnicities, hair and skin colors, personalities, etc. It’s also best to put what kind of characters or ppl from different shows, or movies that has somewhat inspired your oc. Another board could be about different body types and fashion. You can incorporate what kind of clothing taste fits your character based on personality, or design choice. (Tip: make sure the clothing design matches the scheme of your character, otherwise it may draw attention from your character, or make it look dull. Unless your character isn’t human, or if it’s a naked fantasy type thing.) I hope these tips help. And if you need any more ideas/help, I’ll be happy to fill you in or recommend more vids.

Aang's thing isn't just yip yip! It's also his staff, his iconic air nomad clothes and tattoos which you never see on anyone else in ATLA. (besides in flashbacks of the air nomads) So it's important to have multiple things as well. He was also right when he said it's powerful when they lose their one thing! When Aang had to go into hiding and "lose," his avatar title (to some extent) he was devastated! When he lost his staff, he was _devastated!_ Things are VERY important, although not all characters have to have them ^^
(i dont have the book, but) when ross said that faye is a more introverted character, i found that really interesting because i feel like her design is really out there and extroverted-looking? if that makes sense
yeah, she looks like she's super fierce and always has a comeback ready for you. she also seems a little arrogant/cold with her glance sometimes. but most of all she often looks like the biggest tsundere in existence xD at least to me. she has the "It's not like I like you or anything" aura.
My way of creating an OC; Joining in an Roleplay based on anybof my interests (obsessed w Tangled the series), suddenly there is a need for another character to get the story going. And voila ; New OC created (I think I have over 50 by now in this fandom alone)
The only oc that brought me to tears is that one monster oc with no legs but has alot of arms "Elaine" She cared for a young girl who's abused and bullied

I just love Nima. I think one of the first artworks i saw of you was Nima. She just looks so pretty and mysterious, like there MUST be a story behind this character. I think thats why i started to follow you, wanting to know more about the story of Nima. So great character design from your side! :D
One of the things I hate about my mother tongue not being English is: getting to a video early and having to translate my comment with google translator, so that by the end when I return the comment section is full
I bought my first Digital art pad, and I've always focused on realism and references drawing. But I've never learned how to draw poses, anatomy, or even creating my own OC. But I've really enjoyed your videos and hope to one day to be able to do anything close to this! Thanks for the amazing videos and inspiration!
When I make OCs, I usually create them as people I wish I could know, whether good or bad. For example, my two main OCs are Astuto and Kamara, who are platonic sisters and they are bounty hunters together. I think I made them this way because I wish I had a brotherly love for someone like they have for each other, someone I can rely on and more importantly, someone I can fight with and know it'll still end up okay. This is the beauty of art for me - it is a way of expressing myself and my feelings when I can't seem to find the right words.
LOL your jacket was literally my favorite colors as a 4-year-old hahaha - I would always pick out pink, yellow and sea green in my Crayola box hahahahaha. I would literally just dream of solid blocks of those colors because I loved them so much 😂
I'm evaluating my Ba Da Bean OC: Peggy! I know it's a preschool show but I kinda love it, so I made an OC. 1. She is kind of an extension of who I am. Peggy is good at befriending people because of the large ammount of interests and traits she has and hates being completely alone for more than a few minutes, as well as silence. She loves scrapbooking and collecting stuff that sticks to her body (she's a little sticky tack figure, pretty similar to Cosa). Most of her personality is inspired by mine. 2. Peggy doesn't have an exact goal. She just loves befriending people and exploring. That's if you don't count her goal of reaching Big Table (she comes from a shelf in the art classroom) and meeting it's inhabitants, which she already acomplished. 3. If I had to describe Peggy using three words, they would be "sociable", "kind" and "flexible". She befriends people easily, she cares for them and she adapts pretty quickly to most situations (literally). She's really sticky and she can shapeshift. 4. Yeah... Bean is the main character in Ba Da Bean so... yeah. Peggy is kinda like self-insert into their story. Speaking of weaknesses, her main "weakness" is the downsides of her stickyness. She loves hugging people but she has rarely done so because she knows the consecuences. She has an extremely hard time working alone, and even though she dislikes silence (too much silence), she also dislikes EXTREMELY loud noises like fireworks and explosions (she can stand loud music and screaming, though).
When i make characters, i try to make the cast as minimal as possible for each story (bcuz i feel like there are too many characters in my world) My world is very inspired by 80's/90's action cartoons and action heroes.

He's kinda a mix between Jazz from Transformers and Jammer from The Bots Master Quickshot (not his official name): a racer who lost his legs in a sabotaged race, now he has a wheel as his leg Pinpoint: Hyper's mentor, a vigilant, quick footed sniper. She isn't the typical mom figure Barrage: the chunky, heavy duty gatling gunner, second in command of the Quake Legion, the commandos of my world Drillspike: the strong girl who invented weapons of her own like the Deconstructor weapon series. Basically turn construction vehicles into armoured combat vehicles PJ (short for Pressure Jet): he's the firefighter of my world, he can change the pressure of his hose to where his water can cut metal. Later he gets a mod that turns his water to ice, he also gets anothet upgrade where his left side if focused on fire, his superhero alias is "Frostfire". Lastly he also owns a carwash (kinda like a public shower for robots) and is apart of a rescue squad as a firefighter (i might change his name later) These are the robots of my world, there are human characters but i haven't fleshed them out yet
That long picture with all the different characters is amazing. I'm aware it's mostly thanks to the character designs, dynamic and composition but there's also something about their colors that binds them all together and I'm not sure what it is... possibly the blue and white on all of them and the way they cast light on each other.
I'm trying to work on making a comic story I have 3/4 ocs for it and need to develop them more, found this vid and before I even watched this I looked around the channel and immediately subscribed, already knowing that this is all super awesome stuff one minute in the vid and I'm just so happy I found this awesome art channel thank you Ross! Also that hoodie is so awesome!
This was pretty useful advice for creating an oc.I’ve been struggling for almost a year to create my own original character but when I saw this video, it really helped a lot.
I have a hard time coming up with stories with my OCs because it constantly changes, it’s not amusing or it needs to relate to my generation. This video helped me thanks allot Ross
3:32 i saw this character and knew he was damn strong, its awesome to see you conveying character traits just by their looks. makes me remember the time i first saw urek mazino from tower of god :D
I SAW AANG- AND THE GAANG!! Tysm for this tutorial btw! I used to feel like characters need to have something I don't, at least now I'm sure I'd like my characters more.
I have a multi-year ongoing oc named Mon. Basically, he is a God which was kicked out of Heaven, and lives on earth, only to go on to meet my friend's oc, Insomnia, and stops his hated half brother. It is extremely complicated, but that is the very, very basic. I have found that a good way to make an oc is to list characteristics, like what is special about them, then design them and make a personality, then make a name, and add a touch of story.
Ross: And a good examle of this is Atlas! His thing is- Me: He's blue. Ross: His red nose! Me: o H. Okay jokes aside, his nose was indeed very stricking to me when I went through the Nima book but it was definitely not the first characteristic that jumped out to me :'D But I adore all of the character designs!
Is there any plans for some kind of e-version release of your book NIMA? I have been wondering about it for a while as the standard price of it and the ridiculous price that is on shipments that goes from the US to my country makes it impossible for me to get it this way :,(
I’m new to digital art and it’s so sad to see how good my sister is and how good you are too. I want to know how to improve so fast so my art can look like yours
I've so many oc's. And every of them, I gave a backstory. Giving name is the hardest part for me. All my old oc when I'm still a kid. I upgrade them so they won't be forget 😅
I couldn’t join the art boot camp, but I hope everyone who did enjoys it! Maybe I’ll do #RossDrawsTIYS though since I wanna practice more coloring and would absolutely love to do more fan art! Also I love all of your OCs, Ross! I have your book and I just loved reading the comic bits where I feel like I was getting to know the characters better by watching them tend to their lives. It was wonderful! I hope my OCs can bring a similar amount of joy when I create a story for them! Thank you for the tips and I hope you have a great day/night! :3❤️✨

I'm evaluating my Ba Da Bean OC: Peggy! I know it's a preschool show but I kinda love it, so I made an OC.
1. She is kind of an extension of who I am. Peggy is good at befriending people because of the large ammount of interests and traits she has and hates being completely alone for more than a few minutes, as well as silence. She loves scrapbooking and collecting stuff that sticks to her body (she's a little sticky tack figure, pretty similar to Cosa). Most of her personality is inspired by mine.
2. Peggy doesn't have an exact goal. She just loves befriending people and exploring. That's if you don't count her goal of reaching Big Table (she comes from a shelf in the art classroom) and meeting it's inhabitants, which she already acomplished.
3. If I had to describe Peggy using three words, they would be "sociable", "kind" and "flexible". She befriends people easily, she cares for them and she adapts pretty quickly to most situations (literally). She's really sticky and she can shapeshift.
4. Yeah... Bean is the main character in Ba Da Bean so... yeah. Peggy is kinda like self-insert into their story. Speaking of weaknesses, her main "weakness" is the downsides of her stickyness. She loves hugging people but she has rarely done so because she knows the consecuences. She has an extremely hard time working alone, and even though she dislikes silence (too much silence), she also dislikes EXTREMELY loud noises like fireworks and explosions (she can stand loud music and screaming, though).
The fact that I suck at digital art hurts me so much🤧🤧🤧🤧
You can do it! I sucked at first but I'm improving as time passes by!
@@sangonomiyakokomi5764 thanks I agree, practice makes perfect. You'll be perfect in no time.
Watch tutorials on yt on how to be better I'm digital art
When i make characters, i try to make the cast as minimal as possible for each story (bcuz i feel like there are too many characters in my world)
My world is very inspired by 80's/90's action cartoons and action heroes.
Some characters i have for now
Hyper: a war torn soldier who only wants to protect himself from war as a solo soldier. His development is simply him realising he needs a team cuz if he doesn't, he could enter a dark and lonely future
B-Box: he's basically the homie of the group, his sentences turn into short raps and he's extremely skilled in martial arts. He's kinda a mix between Jazz from Transformers and Jammer from The Bots Master
Quickshot (not his official name): a racer who lost his legs in a sabotaged race, now he has a wheel as his leg
Pinpoint: Hyper's mentor, a vigilant, quick footed sniper. She isn't the typical mom figure
Barrage: the chunky, heavy duty gatling gunner, second in command of the Quake Legion, the commandos of my world
Drillspike: the strong girl who invented weapons of her own like the Deconstructor weapon series. Basically turn construction vehicles into armoured combat vehicles
PJ (short for Pressure Jet): he's the firefighter of my world, he can change the pressure of his hose to where his water can cut metal. Later he gets a mod that turns his water to ice, he also gets anothet upgrade where his left side if focused on fire, his superhero alias is "Frostfire". Lastly he also owns a carwash (kinda like a public shower for robots) and is apart of a rescue squad as a firefighter (i might change his name later)
These are the robots of my world, there are human characters but i haven't fleshed them out yet
Your art and samdoesart is like really motivating
I love the Fischl fanart at the end !
That long picture with all the different characters is amazing. I'm aware it's mostly thanks to the character designs, dynamic and composition but there's also something about their colors that binds them all together and I'm not sure what it is... possibly the blue and white on all of them and the way they cast light on each other.
I can vibe with flip in that comic strip
HELLL YEAAAAA PLSSS I NEED THIS LESSONS AAA
I'm trying to work on making a comic story I have 3/4 ocs for it and need to develop them more, found this vid and before I even watched this I looked around the channel and immediately subscribed, already knowing that this is all super awesome stuff one minute in the vid and I'm just so happy I found this awesome art channel thank you Ross! Also that hoodie is so awesome!
Found your channel through that clip studio collab you did. Your art is so beautiful, this is a video I need for tips
i've been in a tough spot for a while and ross draws just erased my burn out and worries.. thank you so much.. your vibes and videos helps us a lot
Great backstorys behind your ocs, gives them a uniqueness and originality
Nice when I was just thinking about making oc’s you posted
Thank you Art gods!! 🙌
i'm surprised i'm this early. thank you for the tutorial, and happy anniversary!
I love making OCs!! I have so many, although I did scrap a few. I love seeing different characters other people make. 😊👌
Happy 5 year anniversary Ross! Love your art!
Can't wait for the next video!
Same!
I like the blue fire head skeleton ,HE IS COOL
This was pretty useful advice for creating an oc.I’ve been struggling for almost a year to create my own original character but when I saw this video, it really helped a lot.
You are my favourite Artist!!! I can't believe you remember
*TOTALLY SPIES!!*
Miracle was introduced in 2019? wow it's been way longer than i thought, time goes by so fast
Bro the draw this in your style deadline is on my b-day
Trait Visio and nice merchandise can’t wait to get some
The colour dodge princesses remind me of Mesprit, Uxie and Azelf from Pokemon! I love it!
My favourite oc of yours is miracle. Because she's a middle child just like me! I'm joining the dtiys for her!
Love your OCs!
They really inspired my own creative work and gave me a lot of interesting feedbacks!
OMFG April 24th happens to be my birthday. So heck yeah. I'm joining this 🔥🔥🔥
the hoodie is SO CUTE
I’m designing a thief like girl who steals back property from bad thieves and this was actually helpful
I like how the princess' hair colers were a triad; pink, blue, and yellow. I thought that was a nice little detail.
Omg early! Awesone content btw
I have a hard time coming up with stories with my OCs because it constantly changes, it’s not amusing or it needs to relate to my generation. This video helped me thanks allot Ross
This is my favorite thing to do. I’ve been creating characters and stories with characters since I first put pencil (or crayon) to paper
3:32 i saw this character and knew he was damn strong, its awesome to see you conveying character traits just by their looks. makes me remember the time i first saw urek mazino from tower of god :D
I SAW AANG- AND THE GAANG!!
Tysm for this tutorial btw! I used to feel like characters need to have something I don't, at least now I'm sure I'd like my characters more.
* Kageyama appears and say "Oi!" *
Me: * shiver *
I love how passionate you are about your characters... 🥰🥰 Same here! ☝🏼
Now that he mentioned power ranger, he is my bias now :). Simpin for ross now
HEY
Lol Flip is your self insert is that why Flip is my favorite.

Lately I've had quite some Creative thoughts on stories and hope this will help me design characters for it

I’ll try out your DTIYS when I’m finished with my portrait ☺️
1:56 The BotW cooking music yes!!
This is so amazing!❤ I love this
Is there any plans for some kind of e-version release of your book NIMA?
I have been wondering about it for a while as the standard price of it and the ridiculous price that is on shipments that goes from the US to my country makes it impossible for me to get it this way :,(
IM LATE BUT...i just want to say that
IM YOUR FANS NOW :D
im start to learn drawing after this
Imma just say it, MJ did a fantastic job on that hollow knight fanart 8:18
If you don't have one yet - you should consider making a book
I’m new to digital art and it’s so sad to see how good my sister is and how good you are too. I want to know how to improve so fast so my art can look like yours
1:20 Ikr! I've always went with method number 2 but I think 1 is also a good idea I should do story first cause I get stuck
I've so many oc's.
And every of them, I gave a backstory. Giving name is the hardest part for me.
All my old oc when I'm still a kid. I upgrade them so they won't be forget 😅
owh god- this helped me a ton and GAVE ME SO MANY MOTIVAITON XDD
I found this vid in the first 20 mins yay!
Thank you for this! Ive been struggling with my oc for over a year, super frustrating.
I couldn’t join the art boot camp, but I hope everyone who did enjoys it! Maybe I’ll do #RossDrawsTIYS though since I wanna practice more coloring and would absolutely love to do more fan art!
Also I love all of your OCs, Ross! I have your book and I just loved reading the comic bits where I feel like I was getting to know the characters better by watching them tend to their lives. It was wonderful! I hope my OCs can bring a similar amount of joy when I create a story for them! Thank you for the tips and I hope you have a great day/night! :3❤️✨
