Emojis are hard to get right, but they're also really fun and ...

A whole year after I released my flagship piece, the Blood Lily, I present you with the second piece in what I've now titled the Bloodstone series.
I put so much pressure on myself to finish this in a way that would live up to the Blood Lily. I think I collected something like 50 different ...

This has probably been one of - or even the most complex piece I've worked on. I'm pretty sure I put something like 60-70 hours of work into this one. That said, it was such a joy working with these beautiful colors- I'm really happy with how this turned out.
Please leave your thoughts in t...

More lineart processes- this time for one of my favourite pieces this year: Catradora being snuggly.
The thing that really pleased me about this piece is that I tried a similar post last year and ju...
A hyur-elezen cutie, with an original outfit design! I had so much fun working on this- especially thinking about how to recreate the original outfit (fourth thumbnail under the image) with my style. I tried to be as faithful as possible while still giving it a little bit of my own signature whoo...

I don't think I've been as excited about anything in this forsaken year as I was about the Final Fantasy XVI launch trailer. So here, have the fastest drawing I've ever made- completely fueled by adrenaline and screaming.
One icy queen, yes please and thank you.

Here are all the portraits I managed during this weekend's sketch marathon! Which really wasn't so much a marathon as a very light sprint. I did realise that 4 portraits per day is kind of my hard limit before my hand/back start hurting. The other aside is that the more I did, the more I tried to...

The process for this piece here! Working on this one was a pretty chilled process where I spent forever cleaning up the lineart to make it look as sleek as possible.

A rare color timelapse! I don't produce many of these because I typically bounce between Procreate and Photoshop A LOT, so the process is constantly interrupted.
While I still finished this in Photoshop- mostly to adjust the coloring and lighting- but I carried out most of the process in Pr...

Full title: "Refuge on distant realms"
This piece has been intense so far- with the lineart alone taking me about 3.5 days to complete. I am really pleased with how it's turning out though and I'm looking forward to the coloring, as I plan to play around with some ...

This has to be one of the cutest, happiest little miqo I've ever drawn. I normally say that drawing was fun or challenging, but I think working on this one made me feel soft on the inside- like Bob Ross adding happy little perky cat ears.
That said, I did struggle with the original sketch f...

It's been a while since I got to do these- quick, 20 min sketchies from the screenshots my patrons have dropped in our Discord server- so this weekend I went on a spree! I'm hoping to do at least a few more of these throughout the week, and also a little more regularly going forward.

Finally got to work on this piece for one of my longest standing patrons and Quicksand box buddy: Ephaux Maubant.
I had a blast working on this piece- trying to work all of those dark tones into something readable. Also, bonus points for creepy elezen boys.

I'm pretty pleased with how simple and clean this one turned out. Sometimes I feel like I NEED to add detail to make my pieces pop, but keeping things minimal is very satisfying.

This was such an interesting piece to work on- one, because it's the first full body DnD piece I've created and secondly, because the text description I worked off from had an exact 53 bullet point requirements.

I indulged myself a little today and drew my nelfy, a happy shiny collector who lurks in city corners and paints with sticks.
