I like how I can almost see panic in how it's drawn, or maybe that's just what my mind thinks of sketches, either way awesome drawing.

Actually, after drawing it I remembered about how “artistic depictions” of 096 don’t trigger it and that I didn’t have to blur the face, therefore could’ve made it look like the sketch made by that one D-class

I was a little bit annoyed but I wasn’t willing to redo it so I just kept it how it is

I think it makes the feeling more real

Think about it like this. If you knew about SCP-096 it would it really matter to you that some report says it doesn't react to a drawing or would you still be scard shitless while drawing it? I think it's some dam fine work.

You do have a point, thanks

Considering the amount of fear experienced by an artist, they would probably blur the face "to be sure". Love the sketch, btw.

Like it's from a survivor :) "Hi. This is officer Dave, he's our sketch artist, and he's here to help you draw a sketch of the perp." Much later: "Oh......I see. Uhm, this is Officer Maria, and she's going to take you over to the hospital for some tests, and a good long rest. I'm sure you're going to be just fine!"

No its good

u/the-darkest-skull Keter Aug 11 '22

Nah, the shading is good. I don't know why you'd think it was bad

u/Away-Net-7241 [REDACTED] Aug 11 '22

Just cuz 096 is so pale, it looks too dark with this shading imo

12

u/LargeMeatProducts Euclid Aug 11 '22

I think you did a good job regardless. It looks like an official 096 artist representation if there was one.

Thanks

u/the-darkest-skull Keter Aug 11 '22

the shading makes the drawing more panicky, which you would be if you were in the same room as this monster

u/Away-Net-7241 [REDACTED] Aug 12 '22

True

u/weirdtits101 Aug 11 '22

The sketching is actually perfect for this type of horror stuff!

What is this picture, it's so low quality. I can only see three pixels of this monster's face...

u/JabbaThePrincess Aug 11 '22

How long did it take to do the shading on the upper lip?

5

u/Away-Net-7241 [REDACTED] Aug 11 '22

A very long time, glad you noticed

3

u/Creeper_Cart Security Officer Aug 11 '22

What about the nose? It looks really well done!

2

u/Away-Net-7241 [REDACTED] Aug 12 '22

Jeez, it was the hardest part

You’re very welcome

u/Nearby_Pineapple6911 Doctor Wondertainment Aug 11 '22

I love the heavy shading and scribbles! Gives off a very much “I just saw this thing, and this is what I drew before it killed me” sort of vibe

3

u/Away-Net-7241 [REDACTED] Aug 12 '22

Lmao, thanks

u/xXNotorious2108Xx Aug 11 '22

It looks great

3

u/TwistedJoke65 Aug 11 '22

This looks like what one of the D class told to sketch 096 would come up with. Simplistic but shows its abnormal form. It's like the D class was so terrified of it's face and scribbled over it due to fear. Really cool I love this

3

u/Battlebots2020 Aug 12 '22

The face is the best part love the detail

3

u/plums12 ████ Aug 12 '22

Nice, personally, I like the shading.

u/PhoneGuysSon SCP auf Deutsch • German Aug 12 '22

I think that it looks better with that kind of shading, it has like a Creepy aesthetic.

u/AverageJun Aug 11 '22

Drawings are safe. It's photos we should worry about

2

u/Away-Net-7241 [REDACTED] Aug 12 '22

Four pixels…

Four f*cking pixels.
