16 Sketches and Lineart Layered PSDs

Hello again!

I'm back and with me are 16 psd files from my latest sketches 

I think that you can get a pretty good insight on how I go through the designing and laying down a character on a blank canvas, 

If you have any questions please leave a comment!

Thanks guys!

Next WIP + a little update

Firstly, I'm super on a Cyberpunk 2077 vibe, can't wait to augment Fjord under some neon signs, any recommended augs you think go well with the character?   

Second on a small update, I'll be out of town till the end of the month so no major finalized art posts or videos until then, although I am finishing a blog article so maybe I'll be able to post it soon

Thank you for the patience!

New CR Fanart preview!

Excited for this weeks fanart? so am I! specially when there is a chance for doggos on it!

With Jesters personality and so many animal puppies coming into the story I thought it was a great op for a pin-up style image, with all the little guys hiding and Nugget blinking all around

Just don't have a lot in mind for a setting to put them in yet, maybe an action figure style base with a fancy non-d...

Art Process, Clax the Alchemist Lizard

Hello Again!

Here is another process on the same new workflow as in the previous process post, more streamline, using flat colors for a base and a simpler shading to get a easier to read final result 

This one was a bit more of a challenge giving the amount of different textures and scales, a curios thing on lizard folk I noticed on research was the flexibility on their anatomy as it doesn't seems to be a specified species of lizard they are based upon you an use various traits from...

Baelophel Art and process

Work Comissioned by @thatguythrast 

wow, I am really pleased with this art, at first glance yes it looks very much with my previous works, but over the last weeks I have made and tested some pretty different steps to my personal process.

A more subtle contrast and saturation, with simpler shapes for little details give a lot more sophisticated and detailed look I've been admiring in many other...

Percy faces his demons

For the past week I have totally binged on the works of David Bull, traditional Ukiyo-e wood carved print maker based in Japan, as a result I got very inspired by his works as he makes several based on various pop culture themes

This is my first attempt at this style and it wass a blast to make and already have plans to make more! process animation coming soon!

Hope you enjoy it!
