Art request sketch dump 1: The $10 tier's suggestions!

From September art requests submitted by folks in the highest Patreon tier (though not for long, as I'm about to set up a still-higher tier), here are a trio of sketch sets featuring suggested characters.

I'm definitely hitting the limits of what my favorite Procreate brush (the Medium Hard Airbrush) can do. Problem is, I intensely dislike all the inking brushes I've tried in Procreate. So, I might A) go online to look for new brushes; B) try a Paperlike-type screen cover to see if that helps the inking experience;  C) download the Clip Studio iOs app and see if that has better tools; or D) all of the above.

That Faye Valentine set was actually the first I drew, but I'll be dipped if I was gonna make that disastrous set the primary image for this post. Did not go well at all.

Ran out of patience on the Kitty/ Byleth page, as I'm kinda hitting the wall right now on cranking out random illos like this. Need to be working on something narrative-based and soon, as I'm effectively a writer who can draw, and not an artist as such; thus, I get bored really, really easily with just drawing for drawing's sake. (An upcoming sketch set features an attached note paraphrasing that sentiment, in fact.)

Your depiction of Cassandra Cain is exceptional.

Sorry to hear the digital isn't going 100% smoothly, but hopefully something works out for you. Anything new needs experimentation to be complete. Totally dig how the third set looks! I'm the opposite of you though, as I'm an artist first and can't write myself out of a paper bag. ^^;;

I suppose I am taking a break between EMP volumes, because right now I simply have no viable art technique to draw the next one. Looks like I can't push an analog pencil any more, after getting 13pp into EMP12. Will need to figure out an entirely new (digital) work process before I can go any further.

I fully understand how you feel about the drawing just to draw bit. It's fun for a bit but I get bored rather quickly. If you dont mind me asking , are you taking a break in between Emp vols or is there some approval/green light process that has to happen before you dive in head first in to the next Vol? PS - That Byleth sketch is adorable. Made my day. :)

So many neat texture and pattern details in these sketches. Some very fun work! :D

Looks fantastic! Thanks for the Cassandra Cain. >:] (Because it's come up a few times elsewhere, that's supposed to be eyebrows + smiling face, not angry face. XD)

I've recently rediscovered my fandom for Cassandra Batgirl Cain, so that's a timely image. Love it!

Did you try a cintiq with Photoshop yet? For someone used to working on paper I'd have thought the smaller drawing surface of an iPad pro would hinder you. Just my 2 cents anyway! There's a lot more brush options in Photoshop too.

Many of the artists I follow praise Clip Studio Paint. They say that it is really great for inking.

Suffering Stendhal's Syndrome! That silenced, suspended super-siren swiftly started sensory surges sending me in such sweet ecstasy! Thank you!

Love what you’ve done, what you’re doing, and looking forward to seeing what narrative based idea originated from that mind of yours... keep it coming!
