I was rewatching The Illusionist (2010) to capture some ref and I swear every frame of it is just perfection.

I’ve always loved the juxtaposition of animated characters and the real world. This photo has been on my camera roll for a while and I thought I would have a go. Bonus points if you can geoguess where this is. #charactersketch #witch #Procreate

I’ve been playing with some brush settings in procreate to try get a good feeling brush pen. This is the closest I’ve gotten so far. #Procreate #sketch #portrait

I love crisp lineart but my figures often end up looking stiff. I’m trying to focus on gesture and shape language to break out of that #sketch #procreate

I’ve been iterating this design for a while now, but I think its getting to a good place. Might use this guy in some short comics or little animations. #characterdesign #cartoon

My Chroma Corps cadet for 2025, Aru the Stellar Surfer. I already have some ideas of how to improve this design but the deadline was sneaking up on me. #ChromaCorps2025 #characterdesign

Last run of Kimodameshi figures. I didn't fully complete the challenge as moving back to Germany took up a bit too much time. But completion was never the point. My drawing muscles needed the exercise and now I'm excited to move onto new projects. #Kimo7 #kimodameshi

Autumn always gets me in a funny mood. I can't help but love it even as I mourn the summer and dread the dark winter days to come.

Here's a piece I did during this years ChromaCorps challenge. The task was fanart of another cadet. Love how the backpack turned out.

I've always liked when artists have their own OCs who they develop over many years, but I've never done it myself. Expect to see more of her (and maybe a few others) in the future.

The Sleep Witch loves a bit of midnight mischief. She enjoys pouring sleepytime tea into the eyes of desperate students cramming for tests and poor souls stuck on night shift. Enemy of all coffee. #characterdesign #procreate #digitalart
