Beginner artist. Here to post and chill.

Most of my art for now is going to be studies and redraws for other art.

Khemia has a new build on Patreon! www.patreon.com/EchoGame

I love the backgrounds and illustrations by Haps so much! I don't like Amicus' new sprites though (PlsDontHurtMe).

The music by Anthemics is really good! Howly outdoes their previous writing too!

Today's Expression: Thinking!

Credit as usual to Haps for the references.

More Ami-expressions: Embarrassment!

I challenged myself a bit to do an angle shift on the second drawing, and a mirrored perspective on the third!

Credit to Haps for the references!

Bonus sketch, I'm starting to get better and faster at this.

It's nice that I can do these drawings in about 10m each.

I got some practice doing Amicus expressions! I think I'm getting a lot better with iterative drawing. Just need to do it over and over and...

Credit to Haps for the references of Amicus!

I'm still bad at shading, but I think I'm getting less-bad at it.

I'm more of focusing on speed for the next two weeks. The faster I can practice, the better I can iterate.

This one took an hour, for future reference (30m for lines, 30m for shading).

My second original piece (that isn't a doodle).

Well, this still is a doodle really.

I wanted to make something that wasn't just a redraw of other works.

You can kinda tell.

But, it doesn't look as ugly as I thought it would, so I'll take it!

I want to be clear, the depiction of Amicus is a REDRAW of HAPS' original work. It's not my original piece or character, but it's no trace either.

I worried about forgetting to credit Haps last night. I post a lot of redraws as practice, so I wanted to be more clear to those unfamiliar.
I'm working through a drawing book. Today is all about perspective!

I used one of my previous pieces as the foreground to do a two point perspective.

I also toyed around with brushes and layers in Krita. Some I liked, others I didn't.

After my last piece, I wanted to revisit my first digital work.

I redid the line art and tried some new Krita textures.

This is based on an original work by Haps, thanks for making such inspiring stuff!

I got pissed off and couldn't sleep, so I spent 3 hours doing a redraw of Amicus meditating. This is the first time I've flat colored with Krita, and probably the first time I'm happy with my lines on a drawing tablet. I used art by the legendary Haps as a reference.

Guess who finally got their drawing tablet delivered?

After playing around a lot and getting used to it, I tried to do a basic proportion sketch of Amicus. (Original artist is Haps)

I even tried a couple different brushes to do some janky coloring for the first time.

I needed some upside-down practice, and I saw this sick-looking image.

It's the Zheleznogorsk Flag, known for their hand in nuclear power.

So, why not a bear ripping apart an atom?

Some practice sketches, including some based on art by @macholobo.bsky.social

Today, I made that sketch of my dog's lil' eyeball, along with drawing Mason from "Duncan & Eddie" after that (posted earlier).

I couldn't sleep a few days ago, and I could only think of this meme. So, I drew it at 4am.

@doginacafe.bsky.social

I'm a very very new artist, and since I really liked your comics, I wanted to try to emulate your style for Mason!

Half of my time went into that silly little extended hand.

Hello Bluesky, call me Dante!

These are some of my very first doodles. Seriously, I just started drawing last week!

I hadn't really done art since school, and it was pretty mediocre back then. "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" helps enormously!
