TONEDEAF! Full Band Polaroid
The first time I had drawn them all together in an actual scene!! This picture remains the album art for my personal Google Photos album that I use for all TONEDEAF! art. It's desperately in need of a redraw, but I'm still fond of the composition.
Originally drawn between September 4th and 8th, 2022.
IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
A drawing of all four of the main characters of TONEDEAF! in a polaroid. Rhapsody is in front, making peace signs with both her hands and sticking her tongue out towards the camera. Caprice is on the right (to the left of Rhapsody) shyly looking towards the camera and clutching her far arm. Humdrum is on the left, looking over towards the camera with an irritated gaze while holding her hand up to her face as if she's checking her nails. Mazurka is in the back center, behind Rhapsody, resting her left hand on Caprice's shoulder and giving Rhapsody bunny ears with her right hand.
Original Character Designs - Front View
The second time I had ever drawn any of these characters. The original designs were strongly inspired by Rodney Greenblat's work from games like Um Jammer Lammy and PaRappa the Rapper. I was still very much figuring out how to draw furry characters so focusing on simple shapes like in Greenblat's artwork made designing much easier for my brain. I am a bit nostalgic for these renditions of the characters, but it's also hard to look at them nowadays. Especially not a fan of how I drew poor Mazurka LOL.

Original Character Design - Mazurka
The very first drawing I ever did for TONEDEAF! At this time, I had no concept for a story or anything. I had just gotten back into drawing and was trying out Copic markers for the first time, and I wanted to draw furry characters for the first time ever due to both 1) always wanting to 2) really wanting to experiment with more interesting color palettes for characters. When I sat down to draw this piece, all I had in my head was "guitar-playing dog who looks pissed off." It's crazy to me to think about how much came from this one drawing. I set a thirty-minute timer (the case for all of the original TONEDEAF! character designs) and just went at it. Rodney Greenblat's art was a major inspiration, hence the cartoonish anatomy and basic shapes.
