Even the strong need support sometimes.

Mudwing Merchant

Really wanted to design a merchant character, inspired by pack yak's and oxen.
Decided to make him a Mudwing, one who grew so large and bulky at such a rapid pace he can no longer fly, so he became a walking merchant and craftsman, crafting his own jewelery , while also selling knick-knacks, blankets, light food items, and leather. 

Can't decide on a name though.

Kingfisher

My first attempt to design a potential adopt!

Just some really rough doodles. I know I want super pointy wings. 

A Sky/Sea who is not particularly great at swimming or long flights like his kin, but was able to combine the two skills into some deadly techniques, mostly for hunting fish in the ocean, becoming far more skilled at hunting than either tribe.

Webcomic Exploration - Nekomata

I like writing poetry a little too much. 


Ignore the anatomy... I got lazy...

Greetings

I like sketching characters just... doing their day-to-day. Gives a sense of realism almost.

And an excuse to use my characters as warmup sketches.


Here is Myth-Hunter doing what he does best: Reading and memorizing.

Webcomic Research Ship concept model

Part of a kit, but I don't care what they say, Geometry nodes scare me to my core. There are some smart people in this world to be able to use those PROPERLY (AKA not me)

Pose breakdown

I'm thinking about doing more of these when I do my own personal studies. I'll work on format to make it more understandable.

But this is the majority of my thought process. Secondary is muscle structure, the shape language somewhat covers skeletal structure with how mobile parts of the body are (or aren't). 

Is there anything in particular you're interested in seeing me breakdown/make a tutorial of?

Scholars WIP

Not sure what I want to do with this yet, if I want to make it WOF fanart, a normal drawing, or my first big YCH.


It started out as architecture practice, but I really wanted to add characters!

Character WIPS and thumbnails

The WIPS and black-and-white are thumbs for Axelle on Instagram, and the reating dragon is for Boreal on Discord!

Plein Air WIP

With all the commissions and T-shirt designs and YCH's, I've been woefully neglecting my studies!

Decided to take an hour this morning to do an architecture study. Will finish it hopefully soon.
