Friday Sketchbook + Malon Hayloft Timelapse + WIP stuff

This is a bit of a behind the scenes grab bag :)

First: Some drawings I've been noodling around with. I don't know  what the little fem Link is all about. I just enjoyed putting all those little hatching lines down and didn't question it too much :)

Second: I'm commissioning my ...

Line Weight Tutorial

I've received this question a couple times lately so I thought I would make a little set of notes to clarify what I'm thinking about when I talk about how I use line variation!

🖤Happy Friday!

Malon's Hayloft

I had the notion that I needed to try to reuse the lighting scheme from the Malon sketch I did earlier in the month. Her hair is a little less wild in this version, which might be a bit of a loss, but this time I had the excuse to put in a bunch of dusty bits of straw floating around. I like to i...

Monday Sketches + timelapse

Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you've all been keeping well. Here are some of the things I've been doodling lately. My sketchbook has been rather silly of late. :) but I'm still enjoying using the same pencil type brushes.

Sometimes my sketchbook drawings feel really deliberate and  l...

Libby & Holly Ch2. Pg 1-2

Happy Friday! Let's spend some time with Aster for a change, shall we? :)

There's always a change I might throw a wrench in my color palettes by changing it up but I think for now I'll keep things as they were in Ch1.

Bombchu Bowling Girl Pinup

So I started out just wanting to draw some Zelda girls, and then I had an idea and then that idea got out of hand. I have been looking at some Studio Ghibli art books lately and I wanted to paint a Ghibli-esque interior background with a cute cel shaded figure and then the Bombchu Bowling girl ca...

Bombchu Girl sketches and pinup wip!

I've become really enamored of the Bombchu Bowling girl so I wanted to do a bigger pinup. Here's my WIP stuff! Still not done drawing Malon tbh, but this is an acceptable diversion I think.
Happy Friday!!!!

Libby Ch2 Roughs 1-7 + Thumbnails

Happy Wednesday everyone!
I'm putting down roughs for the next chapter finally. It's always a bit of a hurdle I dread doing, usually because I do the thumbnails too far in advance (I did) and I don't exactly understand what all my rough scribbles mean anymore (I don't)! But I made it through f...

Rowboat

There's nothing especially horny about this drawing, my friend just told me to draw a cute girl in a rowboat and I couldn't stop at just one. I tried to tie it into the theme by making them witches having done a little fishing for potion ingredients.

I've been taking care of a lot of ad...

Malon drawings

As promised, although a little WIP-ish ;) I'm really enjoying drawing Malon as a straw-in-hair cowgirl in hayloft lighting. :)

Libby & Holly Ch1 is out! 🎉

WOW that took a lot of effort after Covid. Finally got it up on those websites! Of course since you're here that doesn't really matter since you can read it anyways!🧡 Thank you for making this story possible. I am SO ready to be starting on Chapter2.

I wanted to share some process pictu...

Friday Sketches

A few previously unposted drawings that were kinda preliminaries to the tentacle drawings a bit.  and other doodles of maybe Malon? Maybe also the Bombchu Bowling girl? She's so cool. 🤩 I had completely forgotten about her but she came up in the fanart voting comments and I adore her coll...

February Report

Hello everyone and happy March! The crocus are booming and I'm gonna try to keep it shorter this time!

Every month has challenges and February brought two entirely unexpected ones, being taken out by Covid for a week and also my FfaL misprint issue 😰Thank you for patience with all of th...

Tentacle Witch Couples

Lots of loving support happening here. I didn't really intend for these to turn out so watercolory but there it is. The pencil-ish lines and textured brush don't feel like they support deep dark tones to me, but maybe I just need to try to mess around with it more!

I'm usually a little beh...

Monday Covid Drawings

Thank you all for the wonderful support and encouragement to REST. I needed it, and I did rest. After getting over the fever-y part of the sickness, the rest hasn't been too bad. Brain fog is still with me and I'm stuffy and coughing, so I'm nowhere near 100% and I'll be taking it easy this week ...

Update 🤒Winton's sick.

If updates are a little slower than expected this week it's because I've managed to get Covid. 🥲 Still hope to have some new things to share soon but I'm not exactly operating at 100% currently and should probably rest for a day or two.

Thank you for supporting my work even when I have a...

Monday Witch.

To take my mind off things I let myself work on this witch a little bit more :) Not quite a sapphic tentacle couple but I think she's doing preliminary research for friends.

Art Talk: For all the problems I have with printing 😅 I do really enjoy what printing does to art. Sometimes colo...

❗Fitting for a Lady physical comic misprint( Update 2/20)

---UPDATE 2/20: I'm gonna have to delay the refunds until tomorrow probably. Been feeling sick all day and my brain is in a fog, which is not the ideal time to be dealing with numbers and data. To avoid more mistakes I'm going to handle it tomorrow! ♥️

Libby & Holly Ch1 Cover Art

There's been a lot of manga influence on this project so far, so it seemed natural to continue that onto the cover art. Also my current Dragonball reading habit left me envying the simplicity of Akira Toriyama's to covers.

Breaking up a story into chapters is something that I have been try...

Witch doodle and sketches

I want to keep using some of the techniques I've been playing with for Libby & Holly in some of my other work. I feel like aesthetics wear a groove in your brain that kinda get better and better with use. 

I think this witch one needs a little bit more work but there's something ab...

Libby & Holly ch1. Cover art process

I feel like every non art thing in my life exploded a little bit this week, so thanks for your patience. I think my updates for the rest of the month are going to be kinda rapid fire.

I under estimated the volume of orders I'd have to deal with so I had to start printing and folding more ...

Sketchbook stuff

I like the direction the poll went ;) so I'm gonna start sketching more along those lines, but these are just some of hte good and also bad/sloppy drawings I've been making while chilling out in the evenings, watching Nova documentaries about fish.

I can't say I've made a whole lot of progr...
