WIP: first + third year 02

Progress!

2017-09-09 14:00:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Two good friends separated by two high school grades. I wanted to show a contrast between the two years: the first year of fresh experiences and uncertainty, and the final year leading up to the first steps into adulthood. But I also wanted to show t...

Aug. 2017 rewards out + It's been a year! + Sept. plans

I just finished sending out all the rewards. All the pledges went through really smoothly this month! Thanks again so much!

If you didn't know, I'm just about a year into this Patreon of mine. In a week or so, it will have been twelve months since ...

WIP: Rika stuff

I got up really early today (by some miracle) so I had time to draw before eating breakfast, which I'm about to do!

I wanted to try out a couple of inking-related things, so I took the opportunity to draw Rika hot pants. yeah

I'll throw these...

It's Hululu!

This is a collab painting with @miramusu. We passed a PSD back and forth until the drawing was considered done, which took two round trips between the two of us. It's...

Princess Principal!

I took too long to get around to this, but I had fun with it in the end. Working out the pose was enjoyable and it was fun to draw something more dynamic than what I've been drawing lately.

Thanks!

Mika+Miria: lines

Some lines for the $1 tier (full-res in the reward pack). Forgot to post this first as a WIP. Oh well

Mika&Miria

(So cute together...)

I made this yesterday in one sitting. I want to try to get into the habit of drawing more stuff in a quicker, looser fashion, so that I can post drawings more regularly (Patreon, pixiv, dA, etc.).

Progress is a little sl...

WIP: some kind of post-apocalyptic thing

Ever on the quest of trying new things... things that I'm not always that great at. It's not done yet, but this is where I'm at for now. I need to get started on other sketches soon...

rika!

I painted Rika this morning as a "thanks for 600 followers!" drawing on pixiv! I'll probably toss the PSD in the August rewards.

leaving for a bit

Just a quick heads-up:

I'm leaving for a trip again starting tomorrow, but it's short and I should be back on the following Monday. I'll try and get some sketches and previews up during that week!

storyboard previews

STORYBOARDS

Storyboards. They're coming along, as I've mentioned. I'm almost done with the first chapter, I guess you could call it.

It was hard at first and still is a challenge to avoid going too into detail with these things. I th...

July 2017 rewards out... and updates, as usual

I just finished sending out the July rewards! I'm really relieved there were no declined pledges this time. They always make me nervous.

I finished the bulk of the work about a week before the end of July, so I spent the last few days of the month ...

WIP: more shiburin

Every once in a while I gravitate towards drawing Rin. It's mysterious. But here's the lineart this time, for the $1 tier this month (hi-res in the reward pack as usual)!

IDOL KNIGHTS: Sveira

It's Sveira! Drawn by @miramusu this time. Thank you! Isn't her hair lovely?

Sveira cares for one thing more than all else, and that's her sword, Rorunal. Though she's made qu...

IDOL KNIGHTS: Yuko [multi]

Here's another one. I wanted to make a hot spring-inspired Idol Knight. I thought she should have an outfit reminiscent of a traditional ryokan attendant, with some cute flair added to it to make it into something more like an idol costume. Her name ...

IDOL KNIGHTS(?): monster design [multi]

Monster design of some kind...? Or mostly just practice. I don't draw many male figures so I figured I'd try it a bit every once in a while. Also looking at a bunch of Magic The Gathering art kind of inspired me to try something new. ehe

June 2017 rewards out! + notes

Hello! I just sent out June's rewards. Cheers to a couple of new patrons who joined this month!
I'm glad (most of) the pledges went through early enough for me to send them out since I'm going to be out for a while today.
For July... I ...

tiny announcement: date format change

It's such a small change that I wasn't sure I wanted to make a post about just it and nothing else, but here it is.
Until now I've been using a date format that's different from Patreon's own system, such that rewards going out on July 1st would be...

comm: FFXIV

One of my commissions this month was to draw these two in their FFXIV outfits. It was a bit long because of trying to follow the costume designs, but it was fun in the end. Thanks!

Elizabeth Bathory

I don't actually play the game but I enjoy drawing the character, for some reason.
Anyway, I was always convinced painting was hard and I was awful at it, but I've been practicing a lot and I feel a bit better about it now. It's fun!

I've been working on this since lunch or so. I'm trying new coloring ideas with this one and I think it'll probably be done tomorrow.
I've taken screenshots of my progress that I'll compile into a nice page for the next $1 tier rewards. Inste...

Chieri is very sweet and I like her a lot.
Ahem. Today is some lineart I worked on. It'll be in the $1 tier in July.
For a while now I've been trying to draw thinner lines while still keeping it dynamic and interesting to look at, but i...

May 2017 rewards out

Hi! I sent out this month's rewards a bit earlier, with most pledges having been processed now. I hope you like them.
I think this month I'm really going to try to draw more things. Instead of spending hours and hours on a single drawing, I t...

Continuing from my earlier post about Soralie, here's one more character from her universe named Val.
Two things you might have noticed: the project is entitled Idol Knights, and it's mostly a loose concept right now. In the beginning, it ...

You probably know I don't paint a lot, but I'm back to trying to get better at it. I had some help from a friend to do this the other day, and I think it's going in the right direction. It's a different mindset from line drawing, isn't it?
Anyway, ...
