I’ll Tear Through You Like This Baguette

Leave a reply

Part of my out of context baguette series! I wanted to draw a finished picture of one of my characters with a random baguette, and decided it’d be fun to do one with Freik chomping on one in a threatening manner. Then, somehow I also wondered if the demons of my world are kind of like monotremes, since they’re mammal like, but also egg laying. That then lead to the fattypus on the t-shirt, after I realised Freik in a platypus onesie didn’t quite look right haha.

And that anime finger whorl! I finally drew one!

Drones Up in the Sky

A group picture where I chickened out of the background! Yay! lol. I am definitely still not ready to take on a perspective background, though I did think about how George St looks in Sydney. I also feel like now I’ve definitely drawn enough of some of my characters that I no longer need their face in the shot, so this not-face angle of Irutha was fun to draw! I still have no idea what Broen’s costume is or what colour his hair should be!

Somm Night In

Whoops I forgot to actually upload this as soon as I’d finished it. I saw a photo of a master sommelier sniffing wine with his pinky in the air and it was so hilarious that I had to draw my own version of it, so Ris, Soulfear, and Freik took on their sommelier personas once again (this is the first time Freik gets to play somm!). Freik kind of got squished at the end though, and when I tried to redraw it to give him more space, I ran out of focus and the whole thing turned out terrible, so I stuck with this version.

Why did I give Freik a shot of whisky instead of partaking in the enjoyment of some barolo? I have no idea lol

Yverrine in colour + 5 years

Leave a reply

Just a colour comparison in this post! The original Yverrine drawing pre-dates 2018 but I’ve been happy with the pencil versions through the years, so this is just reflecting on how she looks in colour, since these are the only two versions I have. I would still like her to have a few more leaves than what I drew in this time, but she lost the extra tendrils and leaves over the iterations of her design. I think in this case, simpler is better! She looks crosseyed in the 2023 colour, because I’m still bad with faces.

I managed to get more shine and saturation in compared to Ris’ panel, but the wood armour is lacking depth and definition.

Maybe I’ll get to work on her again in a few years!

The evolution of Reign

Leave a reply

So much progress, but still so far from where I want to be!

It’s also cool to see what I kept and what I changed! The only thing I forgot to carry over was the beads for the crown (I was debating whether or not to keep it anyway); instead of it being held up by physics, I guess it’s now held up by magic!

I gotta figure out how to make a more saturated piece using Clip Studio Pro. It was easy with dodge in Photoshop but I’m trying to create my own colours now and it’s hard!
