NSFW - Bloodfiend Don Quixote (Commission + Files)

Beware the blood moon.

This one was an anonymous commission of Don Quixote from Limbus Company, specifically a spicy bloodfiend form that anon wanted me to come up with. This one got done REALLY efficiently and I'm not sure how. I wanted to have clean linework but also have a sort of "painted" rendering look to it, and somehow it all worked out way better than I thought it would. I have taken note of what my process was though, so I'm gonna try it again to see how it pans out for whatev...

NSFW - Final Boss of the Dungeon (Commission + Files)

Just like the last drawing that had an alt, the files are here on the NSFW post due to there being UNSAVORY THINGS within.

SFW - Final Boss of the Dungeon (Commission)

Make your move, adventurer.

Another comm for @acrystra over on Twitter, this time of their OC Vyndifa. This one took SOME TIME TO DO, mainly due to me fiddling with how the layers worked and getting all the gold to look right. I do like where this one went with the rendering, I applied some stuff from me messing with painting to this though I definitely still need to keep at it.

Messing With Painting (Sketch)

In the small interims where I'm not working on college stuff or working on commissions, I've had a little bit of time to dip my head into trying paint brushes in Clip Studio. I kind of have been wanting more control over the general shading and rendering of my stuff and I feel like this would help a lot.

Definitely not the best at this yet but I'm gonna keep working at it to see how I can apply it to my linework and all that.

Grefina Fanart (NSFW Version + Files)

You are not immune to big booby frog propaganda. Also the project files are attached to this post since it naturally contains NSFW stuff.

Grefina Fanart (SFW Version)

Me drawing this frog (an OC by @noirchaton4 over on Twitter) was way overdue but I finally managed to get to it.

Little Animation (Project File)

Here's the project file for this animation. Keep in mind this was animated in TVPaint, so I'm not sure if you'll be able to open it if you don't have the program. I'll see if I can translate the file into other formats, but no promises.

Little Animation

A quick animation to try and get back into the flow of things. This didn't take very long to do and my process worked pretty well for this, so hopefully I can get back into animating more often.

Ivy Drawing Files

This one was done a bit quicker than other drawings as of late, so I didn't spend any time actually naming the layers. There's not a ton of them though, so you should be able to figure out what they are pretty easily regardless.

Ivy (Deadlock Fanart)

POV: You're about to be thrown into a teamfight against your will.

This one was pretty fun to do, not gonna lie. From the perspective to the expression to the pencil brush I was using, it was a great time all around. Well maybe not the gun part, it always takes me a while to figure out more mechanical stuff.

Need to do more of these drawings where I don't go full render mode, it was a nice change of pace.

Ivy (Deadlock Fanart WIP)

I enjoy this dumb little gremlin so I wanted to draw her, simple as that. For this one I'm aiming to kind of push stylization and shapes a bit more in the overall drawing, make things more fun for me and all that without worrying TOO hard about accuracy. Basically get the major proportions/details right and mess with the rest for a better composition. We'll see how it goes.

Beach Day Files

This one's a little messy in terms of number of layers but what can you do.

View Post

Beach Day (Commission)

Another beach-related commission, this one of an OC named Wildfire.

I do think this one turned out fine, but I still feel like I can do better. I dunno, maybe the fact I've lately been thinking of trying to stylize things more and put more thought into shape language is messing with my thought process. Gonna have to do some sketching to help figure things out.

Comedy Gold Project Files (SFW)

Trying something new here where I upload the project files separate from the actual image, that way I can post the SFW images as "Public" but still have the files for those of you that support me. I think this might work better overall instead of having EVERYTHING locked behind support tiers. NSFW will still be locked behind the associated tier though, so those posts might stick with the way I've been doing things until now.

Comedy Gold (Deadlock Fanart)

Was playing Deadlock and I had a vision.

This is another quick drawing that appeared in my head of Abrams doing that one meme of Chowder holding a "Comedy Gold" book and I absolutely HAD to draw it, it was too amusing for me not to.

Also go play Deadlock if you can get an invite, it's fun.

A Quick Jenn Drawing

"What if Jenn was more confident in herself?" type drawing. This was something I did quickly to get myself out of the drawing rut I was in for a few days. Also it gave me the chance to play around with another brush I snagged, which is pretty good.

New OC Concept (Sketch)

Spent my morning figuring out a new OC that caters to my specific tastes, as goofy as they might be.

This character is intended to be a kobold. However, her design is basically a mix of various popular ideas on what a kobold is (If you've been around the bend on fantasy creature designs then you know what I'm talking about). This particular design of a kobold focuses on the lizard-like interpretation, but also holds some ideas from the more dog-like ideas of them with the ears and fluff...

Morning Stretches (NSFW Sketch)

Gotta stay limbered-up.

Okay so I know I haven't been sketching much lately. Like, not at all actually. I'm gonna change that starting with this quick one here, not only to avoid burnout with commissions but also to be able to do my own thing and let my brain just go nuts... Also because I said in the tiers that I'd do these and I probably should get on that.

I'm not 100% sure on how I should post these though... would you all prefer if I just posted these sketches as I make them,...

Wrong Beach (NSFW Commission)

She didn't realize this was actually a Nude beach, thankfully a friend is helping her out with that.

This is another comm for @acrystra over on twitter, with a couple more of their OCs. Once again I've delved into figuring out shading, lighting and rendering more and I think I MIGHT be doing better? I think this looks fine don't get me wrong, but it's a little hard to tell with this one. Gonna have to keep messing around with it I suppose.

A little ">;P" (Headshot Commission)

A rather quick commission done for @SquashuaAP over on Twitter of their OC. In doing this one it's been brought up that I need to do more scalies and lizards and all that. Honestly I agree, there's a significant lack of them in my drawing library right now and I think doing more of that would probably help diversify my output.

Also for this drawing I kind of tried to dig into shading some more, particularly the idea o...

Spicy version! Personally I find this version funnier, bro's got no idea what's going on somebody save him.

Help a Bro Out (SFW Version)

What would you tell him?

This one is of Cubic, an OC by @MetricCaboose over on Twitter. I got the idea for this from actually talking with him about oversized/loose hoodies and all that and I finally got around to finishing it. Kept things pretty straightforward with this one but I think it came out well regardless.

4000 Twitter Followers

Okay that is a LOT of people, goddamn. I never thought I'd get this many people to be interested in my stuff and yet here we are, so I had to do a quick drawing to celebrate.

Not much more to say about it I suppose, though I do hope I my art continues to be seen and enjoyed by people.

Vampires! (Fullbody Commission, SFW Version)

A commission for @acrystra over on Twitter of their batgirl OCs just, you know, hanging out. The posing on this one was fun to figure out, especially when I realized I can position the two of them to where their combined silhouettes form the vague shape of a heart. It was amusing, to say the least.

Something too, this commission was started BEFORE I started really sitting down and trying to figure out values so best I could do for this was do that thing where I set up a folder to put th...

Diving Into Values, Fast and Loose Experimentation

Some REALLY rough and loose attempts at figuring out values more concretely, with two approaches.

The first is the gold ring. I wanted to try a more reflective material for this experiment, as that would be interesting to try and get right. I did it all in grayscale first then applied a gradient map to add the colors, gradient mapping being a thing I also wanted to try out here. It turned out surprisingly well if I do say so myself, the values that I figured out in the grayscale stage t...

Quick Snack

A quick drawing done of @MaridianSnack's sona over on Twitter. Been meaning to sneak in faster/looser drawings in-between longer stuff like comms or whatever and this has been a nice start to that. I used that one chair pose from Resident Evil 4 as the ref for this since it had the perfect mood I wanted, plus it's just a cool pose in general.

I did try to pay attention to values in this drawing, since I've been watchin...

Daisy "The Kitsune Kid" (Fullbody Commission)

Another comm down, this one of Daisy, an OC by @HDIFarraway over on twitter. They've been giving me plenty of work and I greatly appreciate it. The pose was referenced from Persona 3 Reload, the cover art specifically.

This one definitely went by faster than normal mostly on part of my deliberate attempts to avoid perfectionism again, so I'd say my effort is working to a degree so far. I do need to get used to using ...

Ephti, the Milli pen, and going to war against perfectionism

A drawing of Ephti, Foxtoad's new OC over on Twitter. This drawing was done as a warmup and intentionally done quickly to fight against my perfectionism. If I haven't already said before I have a terrible problem with trying to make every tiny little detail perfect in my drawings, which is extremely tedious and unnecessary to achieve good-looking results. Hell, my rampant perfectionism has caused me to think too hard on things and actually made drawings WORSE because I keep obsessing over non...

FF14 Headshot Commisssion

A comm done for @jbash_triple over on Twitter of their FF14 character. Been a while since I played the game so it was interesting to sit down and try to figure out how to draw one of the playable races. Well, their head at least.

Did things a little differently with this one on the linework side, as in I just took the rough layer and refined that instead of using a different layer for the linework. It's a fun way to...
