I got new Pokemon goodies c:
A photo of a plush toy. The plush toy is made to resemble the Pokemon Sandygast. A photo of a small plastic display. It shows a scene of a Bulbasaur, sitting on a mossy rock by a river in a lush green forest. A small plastic display. A snowy scene with cherry blossoms is seen through a Japanese-style round window. In front of it floats a Froslass. A small plastic figure. A stage of shiny gold and purple curtains reveals a Mimikyu, attacking with ghostly energy.

Thinking of this little girl who stood eating her icecream like this yesterday
A pen sketch of a little girl in a fluffy coat, one hand on her hips, the other holding an icecream cone in front of her face. Her feet are set apart, she looks judgemental and in control as she enjoys her snack.

(a belated) week 4 of #SylBootcamp focusing on mouths. The great Jon Batiste has a stellar smile, and it was some excellent practise.

#art #portrait
A photo of Jon Batiste, sporting a big bright smile as if he's laughing out loud right when the photo was taken. A digital drawing of the previous picture in shades of grey.

Not to read too much into it but this Pal (Maraith) looks like a combo of two designs I did over 10 years ago. Nap who was an OC, and a free egg adoptable. Huh.
An image of the Pal Maraith from the game Palworld. It has a black quadrupedal body with a pale grey blank mask surrounded by a large collar of fur. Its legs end in pointy purple hooves. Over its face mask is a blue single blue flame and from its back sprout two silver wings with blue flames A drawing of a quadrupedal character on a simplified bubbly blue background. The character's front half is covered in thick black fur with mane like a lion. Its face is a flat white mask with yellow kabuki-esque patterning and long, pointy white ears sticking out from the fur. Its hindlegs and back are white with a blue gradient and the same yellow pattern as the mask, a little fluffy back tail pointing up. A drawing of a quadrupedal character. It has black mane like a lion, most of its face obscured by a skull-like mask with curling, spiky horns. Glowing red eyes are visible, tufts of purple cheek fur are visible at the bottom of the mask. The ends of the legs are covered in the same black fur as the main, ending in red pointy hooves. Its tail is made from the same spiky bone material as the mask and ends in a tuft of black fur. Floating along its head are purple wings, as if made of a swirly magic energy.

Right so what is this pop-up that appears sometimes when I am typing a post asking whether I'm writing in English? Not even consistently, just sometimes on certain letter combinations
A screenshot of the Bluesky post editor, showing off the first sentence of this very post. "Right so what is this pop-up that appears sometimes when I am typing a post asking whether I'm writing in English?" Followed by a translation icon as used by Google Translate: "Are you Writing in English?" A button saying "yes" is highlighted in blue.

Had the sudden itch to use my paint markers again

A artwork. An Alolan Ninetales looks up at the night sky in awe, bright green and pink northern lights illuminating an otherwise dark boreal forest.

Bright and saturated? Funnily enough that ends up being a lot of primary colours for me.
#art
An artwork of a monstrous face without eyes regards you with a hungry smile full of sharp teeth. Smoke billows from its large, frilled nose and a set of bat ears are pointed to hear your position. The monster is coloured in blue and pink, surrounded by a bright yellow background. An artwork of a vibrant dessert with towering sand dunes. A small white and purple dragon observes from a nearby hill. The colours of the image are as bright as the sun and almost hurt to look at. An artwork of Spiderman hanging upside down from a rope of silk, throwing a peace sign at the viewer.

"Nobody: Me eating a mango:" 4 images follow of various stick figure drawings holding a mango fruit, mango juice all over the face and hands and floor. The last image says "so good" with a blank expression.

A portrait of a night elf character looking at the viewer. A little crow with a skull for a head holding a sparkler, surrounded by Dutch pastries. There's fireworks in the background and the image has a warm, celebratory feeling. A portrait of the Pokemon Dialga. It looks powerful and menacing, red glowing eyes looking at the viewer. A drawing of a deep sea serpent. It takes up half the screen, raising its head up out from the dark water, looking up at the surface.

#SylBootCamp week 2: eyes. This week was all about the eyes, and though I struggled with the practise, I am very happy with this portrait. Eyes are amazing for showing emotion so that's what I wanted to draw. #art #portrait #digitalart
A close-up photo portrait of a black man with a very sad expression and some strong shadows along the edge of his face. A digital drawing of the previous face, painted in black and grey.

Never stop drawing!

2015 --> 2025
A portrait of a night elf from World of Warcraft. She's facing right. She has dark blue hair in a ponytail draped over her right shoulder, pale blue-gray skin, dark-red tattoos on her face, and black-and-gold armour. The proportions don't look completely right and the hair looks quite flat in its rendering. A portrait of the same Night Elf as the previous image. She's facing left this time, her left shoulder pointed towards the viewer, her head turned towards the viewer too. She is wearing a golden headband in the shape of an owl. The features of the face look much naturalistic and in proportion.

#sylbootcamp week 1: final result. Who knew obtaining and actually applying methods of using references would have such an effect /s.

It's my WoW character Astéri! I am super super super proud of the result, truly. I wasn't expecting this at all.

#art #portrait #WorldofWarcraft #NightElf
A portrait of a World of Warcraft Night Elf. She has pale blue/gray skin, long pointy ears, dark blue hair in a ponytail, and dark red pointy tattoos moving from her forehead through the eye sockets, onto the cheeks. Her eyes glow a pale silver and there are no visible pupils. She wears a simple headpiece resembling an owl in flight. She wears golden pauldrons on a black and gold chest-piece.

What 24 hours, another method of using references and a few small adjustments can do to a sketch. She looks so beautiful on the newer sketch on the left.

#art #sketch #sylbootcamp
A 3-quarter view portrait sketch of an elf lady facing left, looking at the viewer. The same sketched elf lady from previous photo. Notably, her eyes are smaller and much further apart from each other, and the nose is a lot longer. The rest of the face is largely unchanged.

I saw a bush with purple fairy lights a while ago and I knew I had to draw it some time. Today is some time.

#art #digitalart
