Shenjie's face mark has been revised.

Gosh, rereading this chapter after finishing it, feels like years have passed between the first panel and the last lol

Bailin and Li Yun page 22

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES THEY KISS FOR THE FIRST TIME

There's a plot reason for this, I promise... 

full res + psd of Langwen study

psd file below!

Not too much comment on this one... I found a gorgeous photo of Dawki Lake and I added Lang and Honglin into the image. I really love how the lake is so clear that you can barely see the start of the surface, so when boats/people are on it, they look like they're floating. I...

Bailin and Li Yun page 21

This is the first of four pages! This is a BIG story moment....!!!! I hope you guys will enjoy the next few pages!!

Langwen Comic Style: Final Decision

So... I've more or less come to a decision. It's a surprising decision , and I feel I need to explain my thinking before I tell you what it is.

I want to preface by saying thank you, again, for all of your detailed replies. Even though my decision may not align with what many of you said yo...

A side by side/follow up

Thank you to everyone who took the time to comment. I can't believe how thoughtful and detailed ALL of your replies are, I mean I love you guys already but I almost - AMOST... not quite - teared up. I honestly would have been ok if you all said "yes we would in fact prefer the older style", but t...

A little bit of insecurity

Ok, a little personal post, where I'd like to request your opinions. This has been bothering me on and off for a while, and I would like to know your thoughts, if you have any.

So I'm not infallible to other people's opinions about my art. Most times I value my own opinion most, but there a...

Found You In My Forest - Pages 1-4

I'm sorrryyyyyyyyyyy new OCs because brainworms. Or plot bunnies. Or something

No names for them (yet), I'm just going by "Little Red Forest Spirit" and "The Young Nobleman". There will be at least 3 more pages for this. I've always just really loved red pandas. Well pandas in general. Buck...

Genshin Impact high res illustrations

Zhongli and Ningguang illustrations I did this week!!! Please download if you like!

I've also included a Ningguang painting I did August 2021 (so... four months ago). It's pretty horrible, isn't it? That waxy skin is grotesquely unappealing.

I'm kind of amazed at the change, because I...

The Story of Langwen - Chapter 5 (2/8)

I finally get to introduce another character (aside from Tiantian and Lang) who is good to him T_T

Anyway, this girl will be important... way further down the story

Also HOW do people churn out one webtoon chapter every week???? That is insane. Like maybe I could do that if I didn't h...

The Story of Langwen - Chapter 5 (1/8)

This will be a bit of a longer chapter. 

It's really funny/annoying, I write a few lines of dialogue in my script, thinking it'll take oh maybe just five panels, and next thing I know I need to split a chapter into two chapters T_T I wonder what it would be like to work under an editor...

Watercolour paintings - thoughts, processes, references

Here are some comparisons of my watercolour paintings with the actual photos I used, along with my thoughts/self critiques, so you guys can see what I focus on/want to improve on.

Maybe once I complete my sketchbook, I'll do a whole pdf of these, we'll see...

The most important thing ...

So I'd said I would introduce new characters. And these are the two new characters!! I hope you like them! They'll appear here and there to drive the plot, I've got a few things planned ;D

I always imagined Dr. Li Yun as one of tho...

The Story of Langwen - Chapter 4 (5/7)

I cringed drawing this Chang guy. I know he isn't exactly the most physically ugly person ever drawn, but he is very, very ugly to me. I really hate those wispy whiskers. And those two long "sideburn" hair locks that are long enough to be put into his bun. And his off-white robe. Like this guy is...

PSD file - Ganyu in Hanfu, "calligraphy" style painting

PSD file for download below!

Depending on the style I use, my organization of my psd files vary quite a bit. It's been a while since I've drawn in this style, but it's the easiest style for me, involving minimal line art/colour layers, but LOTS of effects layers (colour dodge, burn, overlay...

Bailin and Li Yun - part 18

This is a bit of a filler but I feel like without it, the jump to their apartment life will feel too abrupt.

Hello!! Another surprise post!!

Yes... generally speaking, I will update sakura tier posts every Wednesday. But every once in a while I get a burst of art energy and I draw a lot!!! And I'm not good at sitting on posts. It is random though, so please don't expect this to happen again soon, ...

Trailing Hearts comic (part 1/2)

Soooo recently I had this really horrible, gory nightmare (as I usually do) where this detective is trying to solve these bloody murders, and he becomes friends with this rich young playboy during his investigation. I won't say anything about how the dream went because it'll be spoilers if I deci...
