Work in Progress:
A wolf dreamingly looking at the landscape. I started this in my sketchbook but haven't finished it yet

I'd love to take commissions in this style one day 😊

Lady alpaca and her sunshade 🥰!

Another animal with a nice outfit drawn for fun. The sunshade was not that fun to paint 😬
Tempted to rework her to make a new PP 🤔 or another animal

Made with ink, watercolor and gouache

Is there a furry community on this app? I'm tempted to post more anthro animals content, and maybe to open again commissions one day (in a long time), but I'm not sure it would fit here. Lots of furry content on txitter, but here? Not sure

A skater wolf lady with a very pop style!

Err... there is no artistic project behind that. I'm just trying to enjoy what little I can do, and at the moment, I enjoy dressing up anthro animals 😊

Sharing an old dragon sketch from last year 😊 made with sanguine because it can't be erased, so it forces me to accept it's not perfect 😅

At first, the blue area was a new fluffy brush test. Months later, I felt like adding someone.

Not based on anybody. No reference picture, no sketch, just trying to let the ink flow

Another animal/critter drawn and painted just for fun. I would have loved to have an outfit like that when I was in high school and as a student 😁 I never dared to, but I can give it to a character now 😊

Sharing as a picture this dragon eye drawing I shared the other day in a reel on IG and forgot to post here 😅😊

I have enjoyed anthropomorphic/furry creatures for years, but I don't talk a lot about it. And despite my efforts, I never managed to develop a style like the popular cartoonish ones I see everywhere and like.

Very early steps of a sea horse charcoal drawing. I'll finish it... one day

Slow progress is still progress!

Still working on this lone-spear kroot. First time trying my hand at a lava effect, so this takes a long time. But for now, it's looking ok 😊

I finally managed to fully build inquisitor Eisenhorn! I'll prime it when my hands will agree, and I can't wait to paint it 😊
I like to put something, like my hand, for scale, because before painting minis, I had no idea there could be so many details on such small models 😅

I wanted to try to draw a portrait with unrealistic colors, so I picked Will Graham as the model, because Will is great. I forgot to take WIP pictures but the result is not that bad imo 😊

WIP

I have been working on this lone-spear kroot (🇫🇷 : solilance kroot) for a few weeks/hours, and while it's far away from being finished, I'm starting to like how the tail looks! I'm trying to go for a lava effect 😊

I made this Hannigram linocut a couple years ago. I enjoyed linocutting and hope to be able to do it again one day (depends of the pain in my hands. It has been impossible for years).
Even if it's not a new artwork, I still like it 😊

This Night spinner is not finished yet, but I'm done with the color scheme tests and I like it!

Time to clean all the little spots my shaky hands left behind, to add details and all!

Thank you for the many likes on this, I never had this much!
And welcome new followers 😱! I post minis (I'm a beginner, I started less than 6months ago and can't paint a lot), paintings and talk about my novels (as they are in french, I have @galenmleclere.bsky.social as a dedicated writing account)
This is the picture of the krootox rider posted my local Warhammer store (Warhammer Reims on Facebook) in their anniversary contest album! Their picture looks better than the ones I took, that's why I'm making another post 😊

I finished writing my 21th novel 🎉! As it is the 2nd part of a trilogy, I won't correct it now. I will finish to write the whole thing before, in case it would be easier to convince publishers with a full work rather than a first volume only (it's not. In both cases they don't care)

No thought, no sketch, no color theory, just trying to enjoy the flow, the colors and the moment

Made with Posca markers a few weeks ago, after many months without drawing. Painful for my hands, of course, but it was relaxing and enjoyable to do 🌟

It's my birthday today, so I'm posting a festive cat! This is actually an oil pastel test. I'm a total beginner at this medium, but I like its texture and the feeling of using it.

Another Hannibal artwork from 2020, made with watercolor paint and ink.

Aaah 2020. I painted so many Hannibal artworks this year 😅 I was still thinking I could "make it as an artist" in the fandom. I have an entire box of paintings from this hear

I've just started a medical treatment that is going to take me 1 week per month (+ resting time, unknown duration), for months. That's on top of all the other medical stuff.
So I'm going to have even less time and energy to paint & create. I'll probably post less, and I wanted to warn you

I didn't paint the ripper swarm immediately, that's why it took me so long to post about the fully finished box. But I'm kinda proud, even if it's just 4 minis (detailed pictures of the termagants in older posts)
