Today, I went out to buy white pens and tried to use the remaining ink for this page. The weather is rainy all day and gave me the idea to buy myself an insulated lunchbox — not to store my lunch, but to carry and protect my sketchbook. I couldn't find a case that fits my 365 days book and I rather not spend time and money buying materials to handmade it myself, so I went for the alternative cheap option to buy the lunch bag.

After a whole day shopping every place without luck finding a specific highlighter brand, I went home and fell unwell from the weather. I didn't carry an umbrella and wore my (Edge) jacket that kept me warm and waterproof throughout the non-stop rain. I fell asleep and woke up about an hour before midnight without a plan of what to draw for the challenge.

I let anyone who checks out my Instagram stories decide on a particular theme, series or characters and the first request is from my friend who recommended me to draw Mob Psycho 100.

A few years ago, I watched Mob Psycho 100 after a commission artist we met in person recommended me to watch the anime and I enjoyed it so much that I began recommending it to my friends — and my best friend enjoys it too! Once I saw the franchise in my request box, I immediately accepted it.

To be honest, this isn't the best page I've drawn because I made a lot of mistakes in ballpoint pen first. I wanted to be a bit dramatic, but I rather stick with drawing the main characters from the first season as possible, just in case I don't spoil anything for people who've never seen the anime before. Mob's hair is in between his normal hairstyle and when he uses his psychic powers. I kinda want to remake Mob's hair to be more thicker and fuzzier, but I fear ruining the page with the previous day from constantly using the white pens over and over.

While drawing Teruki, I drew him in his tall hairstyle to fill the page and thought about putting up Christmas decorations on his hair, but I didn't and curious if anybody has done that before. Despite the mistakes, I hope y'all like it! ><
