Oof I've been busy (with fever) for the past few days. Trying to slowly get back into things and apparently 2 days of not drawing at all....kinda sucks? Anyhow, here are some quick sketches of the usual gang ha ha. Also I since I draw them a lot, I d...

I did the sketch in Photoshop and transferred to Procreate. I kinda had a hard time deciding colors on this one. The timelapse didn’t do the time I spent adjusting the colors justice haha.

I started a new WIP to add to the log of WIPs here haha as I seemed to have spontaneously created a character concept I liked. But I'm hoping I can see this through! When I do illustrated pieces with backgrounds, my comfort is to go with lineless as ...

Some sketches from the past days/weeks! I've been kept busy designing characters lately and it's been a bit exhausting to just think and draw so I just warm-up with some random stuff.
I noticed I tend to draw angular forms lately so I wanted ...

Here's it composited! Did some subtle shadow gradients, line art blurs, camera movements, and some small animation to the visor and gem shines.
As usual, just the background is what remains and that'll be pretty much it! I decided to make a G...

Some more warm-up/side sketches of these magic folks!! Just practicing how to translate detail into short hands as well as some style and proportion experiments.
I can't believe at this point I haven't started any tangible project involv...

Feeling that your drawings can look a little bit more fun? Do your character designs seem a little bit static or generic? Maybe they need a small push to their proportions!
This has been on the back burner for the longest time but I'm finally putti...

Got to put in some progress on this thing! I added the shadows, the egg eyes and the visor effect. Just need to color in her gem and it's gonna pretty much be ready for compositing (my fave part!!!!!!!!!)
I'll probably end up doing the background l...

WOAH it's a bit down here, I'm very sorry about that! I've managed to work on some cool exciting stuff lately! Here are some sketches from last month that I haven't posted on here yet! They're a bunch of short hand sketches of my characters (again, h...

Here's a vid process of a drawing I posted of a new D&D character I'm itching to play. I did some preliminary sketches for this dude and just thought about the rendering in this one. I miss using the basic pencil brush on Procreate. It's so simpl...

Got to sketch a lot during a session zero for a d&d group. I realized that I'm getting better at shorthanding forms and figures. I'm starting to vary my proportions as well when I'm doing construction first. It's good to see the slow progress!

For this year I've been mainly sticking with a unipin-like brush so it was somewhat refreshing to use my old brushes again. I am actually proud that i managed to draw the right most drawing without any guidelines--it's one of those rare moments haha

Here's this month's round of sketch requests for those in the seatmate tier! Wanted to go for more dynamic and active poses. I'm actually quite happy with that Deku pose!

This is sort of a WIP post as well as I'm trying to figure out the process I use for drawing the stuff I've been making lately. Hopefully analyzing my steps gets me closer to optimizing my process!

Here's a a rough pass for the animation of this shot. There's a small blip in her head but I think I'll bump that out when I get into the cleanup. I'm actually planning to do a 2nd rough pass but looking at this it seems more or less what I'm aiming ...
