Persona 5 related sideproject 04

 Wanted to work in this project again to refresh my head! With this one done, there's only one more to go. ((:

 Jurema is a indigenous brazilian! I wanted to try playing with extremes on her design: she has traditional old elements along modern counterculture. She has an aloof face but her persona is filled with rage. She's a street artist!

 Did you know Brazil used to have more than 2000 tribes and nations(and spoke more than 1000 languages!) before the arrival of ...

Drawing board 07

 Heya!! Been thinking on how I've been handling the posts with this tag, and decided to rename them to "drawing board". I also thought on focusing these more on sketches or alt versions of works that I post... all the other tags are more direct, this one always feels like an art dump! I'm still thinking about it.

 Honestly usually I just want to go with the flow and post something when I'm done with it, so doing these dumps and letting work build up demand a lot of self contro...

Poké ball smithing menu mock up

 Since I saw the Pokémon Legends trailer I really wanted to tackle a crafting menu for poké balls. Apricorns are meant to be an old art for pokéball crafting, and the fact sinjoh ruins exist makes me imagine this knowledge could be present in Sinnoh in ancient times!

 I have a personal pokémon setting that is meiji era inspired, so it was really nice to play with these aesthetics again!

 I've had a very busy first week for march, my cat got sick but he's better ...

Whenever it rains - Production process

 Hey everyone, now that the pages are all done I wanted to discuss a bit how I planned to tackle this comic! As you may know, this was the first time doing a project of this size and in this medium, so I had to learn a bunch stuff including organizing my process.

 I initially did the thumbnails I posted above, after writing my script with the major story beats!

 I admit I made the dialogue as I worked the pages. If ...

February Pin-up - Barry Burton

 Yesss, this piece was super cool to do because there's a lot of themes I actually like drawing, but almost never have the possibility to explore!  More SAI2 shenanigans on this one, so let's break it down ye

Whenever it rains - Cover art

 Now that I'm finished with the pages, I've worked on the cover! I initially thought of doing a full detailed illustration, but I thought a more graphic design approach could be more interesting! It's really not an area of expertise so it was a fun challenge.

 Here are some thumbs I've thought to work with!

After I picked the one I wanted, I did a sketch over it to start it.

Please look forward to it later this month! <:

Whenever it rains - Rain Spirit 02

 Doing the costume study for this one was a thing I had fun with because I honestly just like an excuse to practice historic costumes lol!

 At the same time I'm playing with some Shinto imagery in this comic, I didn't want to use it too heavily. I'm already making a comic set in a culture that isn't mine, so I have to be as respectful as I can, right! 

 So for the costume I searched mostly for east asian iconography! The Nio and Bodhisattva from Buddhism, the A...

New patron tier shenanigans!

 Hey there!! Just a head's up!!

 I've finally implemented new tiers here - the only thing different among them is how much the person is willing to spend on, though! Access to all content is the same for all of them. I don't plan for exclusive benefits for higher value ties in the present!

 Doing these new tiers have been in my mind for a while, so I'll try it out for now! :D

January Pin-up - Venom

 Hey everyone!!

 I rarely get to work with comic book characters, so it was a very nice opportunity to tackle some aesthetics I usually don't get to work with!

 This one was pretty fun to do and I experimented a bunch of new things! Particularly this is the first piece I finished entirely on SAI2!! 

 Also as I learned how to export files more efficiently (can you believe I had to stop everything and save it before???) I had the chance to take more sn...
