My experience [image] But then again, I've been here longer...
Reference. A small guy selling local fruits and Nouggu-nuts. [image]
I shouldn’t call this a WIP. I want to call it a WIP, but I won’t! [image] Drawing more details is too damn tempting, but I’m gonna call it good for the inks. We’re done with the inks! (I’m very conflicted if you can’t tell).
Well, I tried again to do a traditional portrait. I used willow charcoal mostly, a mechanical pencil with HB mines, and a bit of graphite powder. And even when I can say that its better than I have ever done before on traditional, its way before I can sincerely call this 'art' and 'portait'. Compari…
I made a video and started a youtube channel. I´m planning to upload daily sketches in 2024

Okay, I did 'day 1', I'm not a failure yet! A minimalist 'Swamp Thing', as I didn't want to spend too much energy on this. [image]
A little bit of inks, a little bit of thumbnails, and a little bit of pencils. I haven’t tackled a splash page battle scene before so we’re taking it a little bit at a time. I miss talking heads SO much. If I don’t make it out of this page alive, know that I love you all. [image]

today i offer you some sketches [image][image][image]
I made a character sheet for the vicious receptionist. I will probably change the clothes and the body but I´m happy with the head now and that she doesn´t have a neck. I´m not sure about a name for her yet, I was thinking about Bertha [image]
[image] How it started
[image] How it turned out.
I’m so tired 
Thank you and thanks for the interest. The songs from the single will not be uploaded anywhere, it´s just that one single which goes into the distribution 
But I´ll let all of you know when the Rhythm´n´blues band release is, there will be a youtube video for it and everything
Another attempt at using Calligraphr to make a font based on my own lettering [image] It definitely needs some tweaking. Some letters sit too close to their friends.
Looks great! I used Calligrapher to make my font, too (I think, it was years ago). It takes a couple of tries to get right but it's sooo worth it. I'm never going back. [image]
I mean. Can you blame me simping for Otto? 🤣

Bring it on, Baby. [image] [image]
Sub4Sub, lets help out each other 
[image]
My brain is a mush, so I am coloring. Very. Mindlessly. But hey, it seems to be working. [image]
Not been v productive lately, but here's Eliaz being vulnerable bc apparently you're not a character in this story unless you've cried so [image]
Really feeling that 
So yeah, working in warm, but not overly crazy tones seems to be fine. Basically start with brown/deep reds. Also adding just a bit of very bright ones where the light might hit hard!
Oh, I tried the video service @Legendofgenii recommended, let's see if it works.
…
A mix of quick sketches which I do while writing a christmas story and the daily Loomis routine, today was back view day. I think I will continue doing this, I sketched on the train today without reference and I feel like my freehand drawings got a little better. I´m still far from being able to dr…
Trying my best to make them all look distinct enough for each character, as well as the most expressive they can be ^^" [image][image][image][image][image]
Mostly just do covers and random illustrations and concept art, but here's a couple of close ups. [image]
An overview draft for the rest of chapter 6 (just a 1st draft). How much can you understand my scribbles? [image]
