Character design update for the Femme Futura project🌆

Now for my part on this big project!

As the director is a close friend, we usually meet and work hand by hand on deciding how the character’s clothes are going to be. Although I have no idea about clothing design but he does, so I trust him!😳

These are the first quick sketches for the concept artists to work with. They’re really excited about drawing characters as well, so we thought it would be an amazing idea to give this task to them as well!🌷

Now that they have...

Princess Peach with alcohol markers🌸

Hi guys!

I don’t know about you, but my TikTok is full of videos with the Peaches song by Jack Black😅🤣

And what better way to do it than with markers! It was soooo fun to draw!💖

What about you?

Studies sketchbook update✨ - secret sketches

Hi guys!

I really wanted to share this update on the studies sketchbook with you :) I love to draw in this one, as I don’t care about how it ends up looking and I just make sure to draw whenever I want. The intention is to try things I wouldn’t normally draw on my main sketchbook, but that I think are really useful.
