I made a walkthrough of my process for drawing faceted stones! Judging by the timestamps from the screenshots I took, drawing this one stone took an hour and three minutes, although I know I went and checked tumblr a couple times while I was working, so let’s just call it an hour.
Now MISCELLANEOUS NOTES
- This walkthrough assumes you already know how to use layer masks, clone stamp, and lasso tool. There’s also one part where I didn’t label it, but I inverted the selection so I could keep my lines consistent. It’s in the third image.
- Unfortunately I can’t really help with colour choice and the actual colouring of the pinwheel shape that makes of the back facets, but you can kind of see that I tended to colour with lines that cut across the facets and and kept the outer parts of the facets darker. It would probably be best to find a reference to work from!
- This particular cut of stone is called the ‘brilliant’ cut.
- There’s actually a lot of internal reflection business that goes on in a stone, but I elected to ingore all of it since at a distance you can’t really tell anyway.

It’s finiiished! I made this animation short during October (only a month so I had to limit the animation a lot). It got some very light gore in it and lots of spooks. And some familiar music I got permission to use :)
Thanks for watching and Happy Halloween!!

Everything I was trying to ink wasn’t working out too well for me, so I started messing around in SAI instead of doing what I intended. Welp.
Inspired by the gr8 theory that Deucalion is the friend that Chris talks about in s1, but who hadn’t died from the bullet to the head and was instead blinded (btw I lost track of the original post, so if someone could drop me a link somewhere so i can link it, i’d be most grateful!)
Drew water because of the origins of his name. I think that Deucalion (or lbr whatever his name really is) and Chris weren’t much older than Scott and Stiles when it happened, so just drew a kind of anonymous looking dude. ┐(￣ヮ￣)┌
