Inversion Flow

It's been a long time since I've drawn! Trying a completely different technique and this went places; at first her face was too ashen and she reminded me of a vampire. I warmed up the skin a bit but mainly this was just an experiment of making some gold highlights pop.

Gotta get more ideas for drawing!!!

Digital studies

Fruit plate - speed sketch with a one hour limit. Not bad, though I spent far too long on the plate (which is skewed too); I went over it 3 times which wasted a lot of time, leaving me less time to go into more fruit detail.

Busking - I messed up the cello so bad because I assumed instead of actually check the dimensions! But It was a fun study for a full body pose I've never done, plus an instrument. This was completed without a sketch outline first, in order to get a sense of how accurately I'm spatially tracking things. I do like it though!

Yay it's finally done!

I thought my hand was totally going to die since I don't use a tablet enough to use it well; I keep death gripping the stylus and my hand was twitching uncontrollably.

I can't wait to go back to some pencil drawings and destroy my back instead!

The Ethereal set - Ristrel, Syndrafiel, Yverrine, Fool. I wasn't sure if I wanted a four character panel or more/less; when I was looking through my records, I had the option of adding Entropy (who I've never drawn, even in concept) and the Ethereal Angel (I forgot her name, it's too long and I never mention it), but I also didn't have design for her. So just the four main ones it was!

I drew each one separately so their heights and sizes aren't quite right, but the whole goal of this was to get a standalone yet flowing background for each of them, that was definitely fun to do!

Mackerel study

I'm still calling this the Photshop Takes Zero Skill series even though I'm using Clip Studio Paint now lol.

I've never done a colour still life study before, and wow, I really didn't know where to start to be honest. I laid down GREEN as my first colour! Am I insane? No, I just don't know colour theory.

I do like it for my first go, though I don't know how to achieve better shininess. Also, my colours turned out completely wrong from the original:

But I'm happy with my attempt!
