I used a reference for this but I’m still proud of how decent it came out. Something like this used to take me days of sketching but this took like 30-45 min #animeart #animegirl #animeartwork #sketch #mangaartstyle #mangagirl #armor #artwork #morningdrawing #quickdrawing #quicksketch #persona #weeb

This was the first thing I made in my new 9x12 sketchbook. I didn’t have a particular idea in mind with this one rather, I wanted to try and be more intuitive with it. One of my personal favorites so far and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

A little Sailor Moon drawing I did for the fiancé. Love alcohol markers but still got a ways to go when it comes to technique.

Another old drawing! This was one of the last ones I did in my small sketch book (5x8). At this point, I was trying to practice with adding color; and w/ adding a bit more detail than what I had been doing before. Alcohol markers are very nice to use but mannnnn they are not forgiving to work with!

First post! This is one of my first decent sketches I made after starting my art journey back in May. I don’t remember the exact date but this was about a month into starting to learn art. I used some Faber-Castel graphite pencils and some Prismacolor colored pencils.
