Hazards of Tomb Raiding process

I had a wild hair and did this pic in really distinct stages, so I thought it might be fun to share here.

1. The initial concept sketch: I was really in the mood to draw some tomb raiding gear. So my first sketch was really planning out all of the cool stuff I wanted to feature. But it came out sooooo stiff and lifeless. I wasn't doin' my girl any justice, I needed to loosen things up

2. Concept sketch 2.0: Now that I knew what my gear was going to look like, I took another pass...

The Hazards of Tomb Raiding

I've been watching the netflix show on the exercise bike lately. So I wanted to honor my work out buddy Lara ;)

Thanks!

Metal Miku!

Took a quick break from this big ol' Commish over the weekend to draw a little Hatsune Miku. Had to get this one out of my system ;)

( I learned that Hatsu (First) ne (sound) Miku (Future) was a moniker representing her place as an innovator of music. (First Sound from the Future) I tried to figure out a clever name for Rocker Miku...but I couldn't google my way through the Japanese language, more's the pity.)

My goal is to have the big guy done by the end of the wee...

Slay Suit Samus

Just thought it would be fun to repost after the new Doom pic went off on twitter.

I didn't avert my gaze when I opened the file, so I couldn't resist making a change here and there.

I had to force myself to stop or I would have just redrawn the damn thing.

anyway, thought y'all might enjoy it ^-^

It's Just Math

Oldy but a goody

I really enjoy this picture. Showcases a lot of Alex and Morgan's personality. Tho I never manage to get it juuuust right.

Having some life chaos lately, so I am a little behind this week. But I wanted something to make something for y'all, regardless.

Getting all of those sketch approvals and invoices sent out. Stay tuned for some awesome Patron OCs!

Thanks!

Okay, so this was run-off from me drawing for fun last weekend.

I am a prolific video game company in my own mind. You gotta get in here, guys. Its hit after hit. Check my metacritic score

My current obsession is making up inordinately attractive characters that populate a rural fantasy town. Will I keep doing it? time will tell.

SO COMMISSIONS!

Nightbird OC Profile

Whew! this was a big one!

Vittoria has been my current OC brain rot, and I wanted to stew in the lore a little bit.

If you are interested in my ramblings about Vitt and psionics, check out the walls of text in the #WIPS channel on the discord! (or just ask me about it...you'll probably have to ask me to stop telling you about it, tbh)

Sorry about the slower output lately! When I find a gap in commissions, I keep wanting to do larger, more involved pieces...

Workflow breakdown

So, I wasn't sure if this is polished enough for an official post. But I'll give it a shot, anyway.

I was doing a little workflow breakdown in the #shop-talk channel on discord, so I mushed them together for your enjoyment.

Let me know if this is something you are interested in seeing.

I am also working on a more formal Anatomy breakdown for y'all. Previews of which you can find in the #wip channel on discord

Thanks!

Tutorials?

Hey everybody,


It’s been a second since I did a study or a tutorial. Is there anything y’all would be interested in seeing? Drop some suggestions in the comments and maybe we can get something simmering!


(Also, drop in on the help-and-critique and shop-talk channels on the discord if you want any direct workshops or check out the past studies we have done in there 🤓)


Thanks!

Shadowlands Tarnished

Okay, so I was waffling around too much with my design for the Queen of Diamonds card, and I decided to shelf it, for now. I don't want it to be too forced.

So, as a palate cleanser, I did a quick rendition of my Tarnished from the Elden Ring expansion!

Stay tuned for an announcement about commissions!

Thanks,

DANDY

"If one desires

to pursue dandyism,

etiquette comes first."

Full credit to Clockworksoul for busting out an ad hoc Slayer Haiku is less than a minute in the discord. There is way too much talent bouncin' around these walls.

Anyway, Slayer came out for GG:S and I had to homage my favorite GG character. His new design is pretty sick. And I am happy to report he as degenerate as he should be. "Fuck it, we Pilebunker" and full screen K Mappa are all viable strategi...
