Do you guys have any tips for making these (digitally)? I've been drawing a lot of them recently, but they seem to be lacking. If anyone has any tips or suggestions for making an OC ref sheet better, please let me know!

I do!

Okay, so make sure you have the color palet on the side.
Have little pieces that are harder to see like your characters eyes, or piercings in boxes towards the bottom corner.

I discovered the beauty of colour palettes legit ten minutes ago oml they're so helpful
ohhhh thank you! that makes lot of sense

No problemo! Write their name next to their head!

Oh! And I've seen people put whats in their characters bags around them too!

yeah, I've seen the last one, and it looks really cool! thanks again~

Np!

Just thought I'd chip in real quick

I put in details that are important to their design. I have a character who's reference shows her face but also has a headshot that shows her wearing her hood and mask. Also, I put text that are important traits that might show up in a drawing like magic abilities, demeanor, habits, etc.

Thanks!
