Thank You from Batanga

When I noticed I'd never drawn Batanga for one of these doodles, I realised I needed to correct that.

Thank You for the support! 

Tao 01

There, I have drawn the two ladies from Gunfire Reborn. Now I wait for more.

In other news I am pleasantly surprised by the current standings of the Poll. I suppose it's fair to want me to draw a character I haven't drawn in a few years.

Plunka 04 + Bonus + Deksa 3D WIP 02

Plunka is my vehicle for drawing an Asura with far larger assets than I'm comfortable with. Despite my clear bias towards drawing them with breasts, I do tend to like to keep them reasonably sized. Still, it's good to practice.

Also included is the progress on the Deksa model. For a month's work, I'm actually quite pleased. I'm at the stage where I'll be fiddling with tiny parts of the model in order to get it looking just right, but hopefully I can model some things like her clothing s...

Paya 09 + Bonus

Surprise, I remembered I had another Kobold.

Actually, I've been meaning to draw Paya for a while, but she's unusually difficult to shade. Her colour scheme is a bit weird. Still, I think this looks decent!

Li 01 + Bonus + Deska 3D WIP 01

I've been playing a lot of Gunfire Reborn since they released their new DLC and I really like the new Fox lady they added. Had to draw her.

Also, I wanted to show the progress so far on the Deksa 3D model. It's very basic, but it's a good start so far. She's stood next to Unshiu as a comparison.

Thank You from Tupradu

I'm surprised I hadn't taken the opportunity to draw my Tiger in one of these Thank-You doodles, but I guess I technically already had, though her design wasn't really finalised. Anyway, that's fixed. Enjoy Tiger.

I also notice that my Thank-You doodle often aligns thematically with my first Illustration of the month. I guess when I work on two drawings in the same week, what I'm currently thinking about ends up in both creations. So yeah, this week, Tigers.

Thanks, folks!

Firecracker Tristana 02 + Bonus

I'm still somewhat frightened that Tristana ended up with a skin like this. It feels like I'm being spied on. Also as much as I really liked the first Illustration I did of her, it's amazing that it took me until drawing this one to notice I forgot the golden strips in her hair and the stripes on her sleeves.

In other news, wow, shock, Deksa is winning the Poll. I guess I'll have to 3D model an Asura, then. Such a burden, really. Hehe.

I've been putting together some reference for...

3D Poll for September

So.

I absolutely enjoyed how the last month panned out in terms of what I was working on, which is to say a standard set of Illustrations whilst I spent some extra time on my 3D Model of Unshiu. I want to do that again. So I'm going to.

Problem is, the model of Unshiu is practically done. I can't keep working on it any more than I have, so I need a new character to create in 3D. That is w...

Anni 04 (+Bonus) + Unshiu 3D WIP + August 2022 Pieces

OK, so, I've been keeping a secret. I realised I was a bit out of my depth when making the Takke 3D model, as I was running in to issues where I didn't know how to progress or was unhappy with my own skill level when making something. I didn't want to give up, so I devised a solution.

I made an entire Kobold from scratch and rigged it.

I aimed for a bit of a simpler aesthetic, as she's pretty low-poly, but it meant I was able to learn a lot, finish the model, and get it rigged. Yo...

Akli 06 + Bonus

After reviewing the last few Illustrations I've done of Akli here, I've surmised that she has no idea how to wear a Tank Top and has lost her Skirt.

Netto 14

I draw this gosh darn cat so much. She's so cute. I can't help myself.

I hope you like the pose, it was a ton of fun to draw.

Elora 07 + Bonus

A simple drawing of my favourite faun. Sometimes I feel like I just need to, ya know?

Thank You from Vox

There's details about this Fenerox that I'm still not sure of, but I'm not gonna let that stop me from drawing her. Eventually I may figure out the specifics of how she looks.

As always, Thank You!

Unshiu 05 Animation + Carmelita 01 (+Bonus) + July 2022 Pieces

This was an odd one, in terms of production. It went very smoothly, but if felt very complicated. There's a lot of overlapping pieces, but I'm happy with how it looks! 

Oh, also that extra Carmelita Montoya Fox Illustration I did. Enjoy!

I've also arrived at the genius idea to just... combine the last art post of the month with the recap post, so the usual .zip file is attached below.

Also here's a link to the last month of my work, for convenience: 2022-07-30 17:00:05 +0000 UTC View Post

Midna 06

It was so unbelievably warm at the start of the week that I couldn't actually do any drawing for 2 whole days, so I went for the easy play, and drew Midna in a really straightforward pose because it wouldn't take very long. Drawing Midna is like breathing as a Shortstack artist, it just happens naturally.

I included a version with glowy bits because I know some people prefer that.

Tabba 02 + Bonus

Who keeps voting for her in the polls? I also like her but I'm just confused as to how she keeps ending up in second place.

Still, with that in mind, I felt that I should at least give her an Illustration to commemorate her back to back run of second place finishes. She's clearly popular enough.

Takke 15 + Bonus

You know how I am. Gotta have the extra clothing variants.

Thank You from Lurantis

Another one checked off the list. It was certainly a lot more difficult to figure out how to interpret their "clothing". I decided to go with some sort of jacket over a bodysuit. I then half removed the jacket.

Thank You for the support!

Dragon Trainer Tristana 05 + Bonus

I've felt a much stronger urge recently to draw Yordles again.

Animation Poll for July

Akli | Braixen | Elora | Floran | ...

June Illustrations (and Animation)

I believe I am going to stop posting these specific recap posts. I'm going to try something different next month, either a different way of archiving my works or some other way of posting the images? I'll let you all know what the plan is when I start posting next month's Illustrations.

Anyway, point is, don't worry, nothing's really changing, I just want to hopefully streamline my posts a bit and make my work easier to search?

Snrif 04 Animation

I feel like I type a lot about how much I don't like .gif dithering. I want to be clear I actually like dithering as an aesthetic, but without any control of where it is I just have to look at how certain colours in these animations wobble and boil.

Get the .apng below.

Anyway I hope you enjoy this animation. It was relatively few frames to draw but I like the motion a lot.

Akli 05 + Bonus

I apparently quite enjoy practicing my lighting with Akli. I also just enjoy drawing Akli.

Kelseh 03

Just gotta periodically stay on top of my need to draw the funny foxes.

One day I'll think about the location of the partner in these kinds of pictures and will actually draw them. Until then I'll just keep leaning on Tentacles so as not to have to think about it.

Vex 01 + Bonus

I suppose this means I've drawn all of the lady Yordles now. Vex in particular is quite interesting as there's a lot I could do with Shadow.

Thank You from the Fae Bladetwirler

This is a Yordle who I think only appears on a single card in Legends of Runeterra. She's cute though. Meant to draw her for a while and I guess these Thank-You doodles are a good chance to work on these sort of characters.

Thanks for being here to look at the butts I draw, folks.

May Illustrations and Animations

I really don't know what to type here sometimes.

Umm... Oh, I suppose I feel like drawing some Yordles again. Also Kobolds. I want to be more consistent with Kobold art.
