I felt compelled to start a Primo sketch, so have a tease at my AU's Primo.

Yes, it's Primo and not Prima. No, he's not called Primo Prime, lol.

Kinda looking forward to this one, guys, though I still need to finish the aerialbots.

Now they just need to make the blue version of the larger one available next!

~A very unique form of date night~

An illustration I did of my OC and a friend's who're married, enjoying a nice time in the sea together. <3

#Warcraft #WarcraftOC #NikKalArt

An illustration from an underwater POV looking up at the sunlight beaming in, the sunlight is slightly obscured by the two figures in the foreground: a large dragon with some muted fiery glowing reaching out to a small siren woman who's reaching back to him in turn. Their tails are touching just as their outreached hands are.

This is why I knew better than to draw on the new monitor, like damn...my supposed good new "gaming" monitor for some reason makes this look like shit. TwT My older monitor makes it look amazing, though!!

That awkward moment when I realize that a special effect I tried doing on a new art piece looks different on each of my three monitors.

Just this look blotchy to you, or nice and blurry???

Can't make a haranir in Wowhead's dressing room yet, cuz I'm stuck at work and their mobile site runs like ass on my phone, so I've doodled this to release my creative juices and not explode.

I was possessed...

Still not used to all the fancy aspects of CSP, so this isn't as robust as it could be. But it was still fun, especially since I used a symmetry tool for the first time!

Let's just say this piece is titled..."The Scorned Reagent".

Gotten started on Silverbolt now that Air Rad and Skydive are done, and he's gonna be hella unique. I think I'm going to have him be of similar origin to Jetfire. But whereas Jetfire has a facemask, Silverbolt does not, hehehehe.

WE'RE MAKING PROOOOGREEEESSS!!! Air Raid is finished, that's two out of five Aerialbots now!

I've now sketched two designs in almost as many days, I am still in disbelief at how much this does indeed make me faster, lol.

#Transformers #Maccadams #Mecha #NikKalArt #CyberEmblem #WIP

A B&W sketch of a very sharp, sleek, and dapper aerial transformer with many wings and other appendages for mid-flight balance.

A rough black & white sketch of two transformers, the left designed to emulate an alt mode of a speedy stealth bomber jet and the rest a sleeker and boxier design with more wings.

Starting on Air Raid next after I gave myself a while to bask in the victory that was Skydive. Good gosh, this feels so good...and it's coming along so much faster...I AM HAVING THE TIME OF MY LIFE!!!

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO!!!

A rough, partial sketch of a WIP aerial transformer design, only showing upper body and the left arm/wing at this time. He is very handsome and sharp looking so far, very pokey and dapper.

VICTORY IS MINE!!! In record time, I have completely sketched a new transformer design thanks to my tablet!

Behold, the furious Skydive, proud member of the Aerialbots!

I HAVE AN ART TABLET!!!

Made an oath I'd work on Aerialbot designs first once I got it, so here we go! Had to get CSP via a Wacom 2-year license offer, my SAI copy was lagging way too much. Once I get used to CSP and this tablet, THE METAMORPHOSIS WILL BE COMPLETE.

Man, I love combining Three Houses and Transformers.

An actual match made in heaven, they compliment and mesh with each other so well.

No wonder I got the idea for this AU from a dream!

Every artist I’ve ever known has this itch to create that won’t go away until they create. They have to do it.

It’s why I know the “finally, someone like me can make art” AI users are full of shit. What they really mean is “finally, a way to get social media likes without hard work”.

Got a floating shelf installed over my desk, so now I've got two beloved hyperfixations displayed above my workspace. >B3
