DAY 3
It's taking form. This afternoon I discovered I had acrylic retarder medium which slows downs the acrylic drying time to make it work more like oils. I tried it and it was almost the same thing. So... I think the acrylic phase is over. The next layers will be oils (water soluble oil, ...

DAY 1
Here's a peek at the first day of this process. It looks embarrassingly awful right now. I'm not sure what the fuck I'm doing, to be honest -- which by the way is the reason I decided not to record or stream it. I have to figure out how to paint, my brain can't handle the extra task o...

THIS Geralt image is going onto THAT canvas. And I'll be streaming the process on Instagram (@astoralexander). Saturday afternoon sounds like a good time to stream it. Be ready.

I opened a new photoshop file and started sketching, without thinking, no plan, and this is the result

Hi.
I'm so sorry I've been quiet for so long. I've been going through some stuff. I ended my venlafaxine treatment and it's taking several weeks for my brain and body to adjust. It's getting better.
My plan for this year was -- still IS -- to start a youtube channel. That hasn't happe...

I have everything set up for a pencil drawing video, except for the idea of what to draw. This is one.

Hello.
Here are the first sketches from my new sketchbook. The first one is a copy of a photo by someone else — I don't know the photographer or model's name. Next: ideas for my Rapture project, followed by a copy a screenshot from a p0rnhub video. And the last one is based on a photo of ...

Helloooo.
Ok, I know you're here for illustrations not for some nerd-ass architectural fan project. Worry not! I have some pencil drawings I will upload pretty soon.
Back to my Rapture project... The map you see here shows the blocks of the city, each color representing a different el...

Hello!
I'm sorry I have been silent for a while. I haven't been in the best mental state and I've been kinda creatively spent -- illustration wise. I needed a break from painting so I went back to an old passion project of mine which I've posted about before: my real scale model of Ra...

Yes, he has 3 arms. I had two poses and I couldn't pick one.

I was doodling and browsing my collection of erotic photos and I came up with this. I will probably finish this one before the Noir stuff because, well, this one is a lot simpler. No background.
Ok, I shouldn't be telling you what I'm about to tell you: I plan to start painting with real oi...

More concepts.
To be honest, I got bored with Anna Henrietta's portrait.

Just sharing a pair of ideas I have for future illustrations.
(BTW... I know I haven't replied to any of your comments in a while. I'll get to it today. It's not that I don't care, it's that I've learned to avoid comments because I always take the negative ones very personal. One...
2021-11-07 21:09:00 +0000 UTC View PostI can't believe the Tree illustration brought so many people here. 30 new patrons today (more or less)!
I'm starting to feel some pressure...
Anyway,
Thank you!
Let me know if you want more process breakdowns like this.

Ok, these are finished.

... It's not finished, like all the other stuff I've posted. Yeah, I know, I should finish one at some point.

OK here's the plan:
I'll take around 12 of Castlevania's recurrent monsters and do 2 versions of each. The Remaster, which keeps the design as in the game just realistic and with added detail, and then My take on the monster.
In related news... today, while looking for Castlevania ref...

This is something I've had in mind for a while. Any Castlevania fans here?
2021-09-19 02:27:30 +0000 UTC View PostI'm so sorry for my absence/lack of uploads recently. I'll make several posts in the coming days. Pinky promise.
