Alright, who was it? Who left the door open for December to sneak back in? And who thawed Michael Bublé? I swear, we’re all in the Matrix and someone’s sitting on the forward button and I do not like it. at. all.
Timewarp shenanigans aside, Merry Holidays you lovely folk. This update c...

Although I posted a little preview of this one in my most recent WIP dump, and while I don't usually upload two WIPs of the same piece, I put my spine into the details of this one. I don't know what got into me, honestly.
Now to spend 1000 years coloring this mess :_)
And the second piece for my twitter event is done! These were so overdue and I'm very glad to have finally gotten a chance to work on them- no least because they both gave me a chance to work on defining some aspects of my art that I already highlighted in the 2021-11-20 17:05:10 +0000 UTC View Post
So way back in September I hosted a little event on twitter to celebrate hitting 10k followers and picked two characters for portraits. I finally got some time to finally get on with that, so here's the first of them!
I am very pleased how this one came out and it did pose a bit of an epiph...

So I've been doing that thing where I start EVERY single project on my list to feel like I'm actually going places, which is actually how I manage to stay productive when I start hitting a bit of a wall. The only issue is that this usually results in a bit of a quiet timeline on this end, so to p...

I got really carried away with this reward for many a reason- some pertaining to myself (I really wanted a chance to work on my rendering skills) but mainly because I wanted to do something special for the patron who requested this, who has had a challenging year to say the least. I hoped t...

Baby's first Star Wars character! I love how my previous reward was full on uwu, while this one's asking you if you'd like your insides to be your outsides. 😈

In case you don't recognise her under the layers of extreme uwuness, this pretty pastel lizard is the same one as in my Umbral Soul piece. The two, wildly swinging moods of a top tier BLM, truly.

I am finally back and boy am I glad to be home and done. When I first signed up for this I had NO idea how much work and how tiring it would be, though I also didn't imagine it would go so well and that I'd get to meet so many wonderful people. 2021-10-26 12:46:24 +0000 UTC View Post

"I'll never draw another scale" she said. Then she went and drew two lizard's worth.
Couple's portraits like this one are a lot more complicated than they look. Making sure the pose works, the characters feel integrated with each other and that the eyes align properly is so much mo...

Cleaned up the sketchies from last night's FFXIV art party! We had such a lovely time and I can't wait for the next- maybe it'll be Endwalker themed? <.<

And so it was decided that she'd never paint another au'ra scale again. @_@
The simplicity of this piece belies the sheer amount of effort that went into it. It's hard to explain where most of the time was sunk, because it mostly feels like it was stuff you'd only noticed if you lo...

Finally finish this lass. From the WIP I posted earlier in September, I've at last had the chance to finish rendering her.

The OC in this piece is a blind garlean, half-elezen so with the idea that we're going to Garlemald in Endwalker, I bring you the concept 'what would a Garlean primal look like?'

The patron art party last night was a blast! Had a good group of people drop in and then a hide & seek event to wrap it up (so there will be a fifth sketch forthcoming).
