I love to set a scene with changing background elements for easy drama :P

I've given up putting the colour adjustment in the rough colour, because its one extra step for me that isn't necessary- but I suppose it means you can see the original colours this way! I usually make everything the local colours, and then apply a multiply or overlay colour to match the scene.

Sketchbook- August 2021

(placeholder image again oops... I really need to get back on top of the previews)

I really enjoyed traditional stuff this month, I used some stickers and things as prompts for each page- in terms of colour especially, but sometimes theme. I hope you enjoy it! 

Thanks for all the support, as always!

Marnie is really interesting to draw emoting, she's so expressive most of the time, but when she's actually upset she's the opposite, clams up and tries to not show it. 

Here (to me) she's looking into the distance, knowing that everything will change when she opens her mouth.

I love getting to pull out the impressionism for backgrounds, its so fun (and fast... trying to line or detail paint this kind of thing would take a million years. I feel like when you line its a lot easier to give away that you don't know how to draw something well...vs when you just put some blobs in the right shape the viewer can fill in the gaps for you (I am hoping I can find a way to make my lines more impressionist for my next project hahahahahaah)

I'm hyped for the colour scheme in the next part :>

I worked quite hard to make Romans expression as neutral surprised as I could, I really didn't want to give a negative vibe to him noticing.

I'm getting a lot of mileage out of that first panel hahahaha. I've been watching Hajime no Ippo recently, and they re-use the same establishing frames every new scene, and honestly it works well. Like a consistent 'look, we're here, remember this place/frame?'

(I wanna post today, but I dont wanna make a preview pic today haha)

Here's the Sylvia/Billie comic I've been working on! The plot is very silly, but I hope the smut is hot!

 I'll be posting a bit less for the next couple of nsfw sb's to recuperate hahaha, this got Big.

I forgot to draw Billies scars the whole way through, i've been very tired XD.

[edit- I forgot to say, I got quite a few 'rough' nsfw prompts, so this is kind of...

hoooo that last picture came out way too hot. I've raised the bar too high and I'll have to surpass this level of hot later in the comic but I don't have the heart to get rid of those bedroom eyes hahahaha. I copied the pose from a selfie (I'd feel...rude posting it it's just some random girl on google search) but that's why it looks half decent ;p. I had the idea of that angle but I didnt want to spend 200 years trying to get it right.

Anyway I'm excited to finally? kind of? Get a happ...
