Yeaaaaahhh... I still like Rivet.
I'm experimenting a little more on how my coloring style. I like the result here but I don't like it AS much as the smoother stuff I was doing last week. Still. There are a lot of nice things about how this works, with more clearly defined shadows. I just think it's a less good imitation of cell shading that other artists do better than me.
I'll work it out I'm sure, just gonna keep practicing and adjusting to see how I like things.

Just... had Chun-li on the mind. I also experimented some more with complex rendering, coupled with more exaggerated figures. I rather like how this looks. I'd try to explain the process but... it might actually be better to show it in a video clip. Hopefully this link works.

Oh... just hiding out in storage, waiting for the mood to show up. The perspective on this one was trickier to accomplish than you might expect but I think it came out reasonably well. The bottom of the container is simple enough. But the top of the box, that's a completely different set of challenges. I should practice more difficult objects in 3d space too.
A couple friends recommended I just use clip studio's useful 3d tools but I'll be honest, I forgot they were even there...

My weekend has been totally consumed by this game and I'm thankful for the experience. Long followers might know I'm a bit of a Souls fan. Though I haven't played a lot of the Dark Souls games, I definitely loved what I did play. (had some issues with performance on the ps3 and my PC with the various games that made it tricky to play)
Bloodborne and Demon's Souls however, are a couple of my all time favorite games I've beaten. And I'm looking forward to getting through Elden Ring someda...

Hey everyone, man February went by fast. I guess that's what it gets for being the shortest month. But it was also a tough one. I can't say my mental health has been perfect but thanks to you guys I've been able to keep on going. Thank you. I hope you've been enjoying everything and I hope to see...

Someone asked about Suzie and I realized I hadn't drawn her in a long time either. I have so many OCs I haven't drawn. And Suzie deserves some more love, especially since I really did dig her recent redesign.
This however is an extension of one of the WEIRDER ideas I have. Cause... I can get a little weird. It was basically about Suzie as a mech pilot but Colette was a mech/suit that suzie could wear. It's conceptually weird and has some awkward issues I would have to explain away. But ...

Analog Horror Girl is a really fun character to draw, like surprisingly so. And now I want to think of office shenanigans as she's been allowed to travel the more common areas of this SCP like facility. Just be careful not to look too closely at any reflections while she's in the room with you. Her reflections are significantly less nice than she is.
Anyone wanna help me come up with a name for her? I'm not super great with names.

Oh... just a little lewd thing. The world's a bit of a mess right now, and I feel like that's underselling just how awful things have been. So one of the things I've been relaxing with has been this cute little dress up/dating/choose your own adventure game. The outfits and the stories are nice! But oh no, there's a commanding beautiful sexy guard captain to romance and now I'm all in on this game...
I may or may not draw more sexy fan art for it, but I am probably gonna keep playing it...

I actually drew this sketch for Brellom of their OCs for Christmas a couple months ago and I thought it was pretty cute. I was gonna keep it private but I felt the need to post something, anything, on this remarkably poopy day.
I hope you're all well and safe. Take care friends.

It's been a bit since I've drawn two people interacting. It's left me a little out of practice...
I admit I've been feeling sluggish and out of it in recent weeks. It's kinda the normal for me this time of year. I'll get out of it eventually.

Hoping for a cool Chun-Li for Street Fighter 6 in the future. Anyway...
Sorry for the late post today. Had been stressing out all day. But I still wanted to post something of course. I rather like the color of the skin here. Though I think I could do better with the modelling. Especially of the muscles. When it comes to muscle girl pinups, people love seeing well defined edges to them.

I think the Star Trek Lower Decks Ensign Rutherford piece is worth finishing but I'm not totally satisfied with the anatomy on his left arm. It might take a little more work before I finish it. Still, I think it'd be fun to get a little bit of beefcake in my art. And I'd been wanting to draw Rutherford for years. I think his face came out pretty good in this sketch, it's like you can hear his catch phrase "okie dokie" from the drawing.
The Orion Tendi could use a little more work.

I know I've probably talked too much about this method of lighting, but I think what it does for me is that it works VERY WELL in creating moody atmosphere. This is especially handy if you want to imply there are a lot of zombies just out of your view, without having to draw a whole lot of zombies in great detail.
Speaking of details, I kinda held back on just how violent this image could be. But it's also true anything more violent doesn't really tell the story of the moment any better...

Hey guys, I haven't uploaded a timelapse in a while and I thought you guys might enjoy this one. It has a number of neat stages and plus I still think the overall image comes together really well and rather smoothly. Hope you enjoy this sorta thing. Catcha soon.

Okay, so I know I have a weird eclectic taste in videogames. The latest one I've been enjoying is a choose your own adventure dress up princess mobile game and it's like... pretty dang cute. And it's been a good way to relax and read without real stress involved. Plus it's given me inspiration for cute outfits. I should try drawing some of them later.
On the rendering side, this is a slightly more involved version of the process I've been working with lately. It's still really nice for ...

In some of my off time, I'd been playing this game called Project Zomboid. It's a really neat simulation game about surviving in a lonely zombie apocalypse. There's no real end goal except to survive as long as you can, cause you will eventually die. The neat aspects of it are how deep the simulation elements go. Like... wearing too much armor? You might be getting sweaty and tired. Want to break down furniture to turn it into barricades? You better have the tools and knowledge so you can avo...

Just a rosemary sketch. I haven't drawn her in a while. She's a little more curvy than last time too. I've been thinking about how I want to exaggerate differences in the characters and when it comes to Rose, she's been getting more buxom and curvaceous. Which, ya know I'm totally fine with. So I think I'll push her further out from "standard psudonym pretty girl" range and maybe a little closer to "big" like all the cool internet artists are doing nowadays.

Just a sketch. I don't think I'm gonna continue this one but I want to learn how to draw a really cool looking leather jacket. There's a way the jackets fold and such that is different from other clothes, that looks cool or tough. I'll figure it out someday.

I'm not entirely sure anything here is too exciting, I just had some sketches that seemed neat enough to post. Coco is over there trying out some Misty cosplay. Also I pumped up the "cute" quotient by a few factors.
There's a painting of a guy there, just wanted to get some more practice with harder more defined edges across a face.
It's been a weird weekend for me folks, but I hope to have my funk sorted out soon enough.

Oh... just being silly here. It's that Jurassic World character that I kinda like drawing too much, and somehow finding herself with even more clothing damage since the last time. You'd think the characters could find something else around the island considering how long they've spent there...

I'm still on my Rivet kick. It might stay that way for a while I think. I dunno. Rivet's cute and I'm learning a lot with textures and lighting with drawing her. Also the cartoonish proportions are encouraging me to push out and away from stricter realism and emphasizing cute curves and stuff. It helps when your studies are also a lot of fun to draw.

This is probably gonna look wicked in color, but I can't quite decide if I like the anatomy on the drawing just yet. Still, I figured I should share the work in progress as is.
If the two "mancer" characters can be defined in a single word I would say that the Technomancer is always angry. Biomancer is always tired. I imagine the strain takes a lot out of her. It's the creatures that burst out of her that have all the energy. What's left is just barely staying awake to keep it together....

I hadn't drawn Julie in way too long, but I've been getting into some heavy SCP/Horror type stuff lately and I had to bring back the original girl from my "SCP Magical Girl world."
I'm really happy with how this pic came out too. I especially like how the ground looks, and how it just took a simple trick to make the texture look like it has real depth. You basically just take the texture and free transform it to fit the ground plane you want your character on.

I don't have a LOT smart to say about this picture but I was having a hard time deciding which of my recent sketches to post. It was either this or some spooky horror stuff and I figured I'd start February with something a little cute instead. Enjoy!

It's EXACTLY what it says in the title. My brain's a little fried and I don't really have the where withal for a detailed commentary about recent work. But I did have this very nicely rendered butt that I thought I could share with you all. Hope you like this sort of thing.
I'd say this girl looks like Ashley but she doesn't normally have these kinds of curves...
