Boris

I drew my friend's cat! He had passed away recently and I never met him, but I would get plenty of pictures of him being so adorable.

RIP Boris!

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!

Coffee Break (in the park)

Whoops, I gave two different drawings in a short span of time the same title! With the same characters!

This is a redraw of a 2015 picture, but again, everything is so much better this time around. Ristrel has ditched the muffin for a coffee lol.

Fish God

Ah MoonEye! The hardest to draw of all my "first" characters. This is technically MoonEye + 18 years, here's when I last felt I had a proper drawing of him:

I upgraded him from a wizard robe to a kimono, but even then I wasn't happy with all my attempts to draw him. It wasn't until I decided to add a haori a few days ago that finally I thought I could get something good, and I did!

But I still didn't have a pattern in mind, so I just went with fish scales for now. The haori on the other hand, I do like the patterning - even though it's vastly different from the original photo, the leaves are meant to be the same as those from the trees in the Land of Falling Caterpillars!

Freik, Demonic Guardian

Ah it's been far too long since I've drawn Freik! I also had an argument after my last attempt in Photoshop, so I finally tried out Clip Studio Paint in earnest. The colours are much more muted but that green glow is so saturated! I need more practice with it!
