Yeah, there's no way I'm getting this done tonight. That's fine, it'll be ready for 7.5...hopefully. The face glow-up though, I'm very proud of it!

I started this like a few days before FFXIV:Dawntrail came out, in an attempt to make a last minute "Maintenance Erenville." Got nowhere near finished before said maintenance, and cast it aside.

Now I'm going to repeat said mistake and see how much I can fix before maintenance...tonight.

"St. Sebastian of the Screen"

I'd been thinking a lot about how digital censorship and the proliferation of AI is stripping people of their critical thinking and creativity. This was born from that and the need to embrace art even more as an act of both grounding and defiance.

I’ve been so absent with art for way too long so here’s proof that i’m getting my ass back to work

Oh this game has gotten me in its claws and I cannot wait to make art of my pretty healer boy.

Warm up Columbina,
Feels good to be kicking the insomnia and getting back to my daily routine.

Late night nose study.
I’m stuck on a painting i’m working on because nose, so back to the sketchbook…

How many hours of rendering and re-rendering have I put in already? Too many. Literally learning how to to paint as I go but it’s so satisfying

Younger me always wanted to draw ✨spicy✨ Inuyasha. And you know, you can’t disappoint your younger self…

First attempt at the Asaro method/planar study of the head. After years of repeating the Loomis method over and over its nice to be changing this up. My brain really gravitates towards more geometrical/mathematical stuff so this tickles it in lots of ways

Quote how you paint dark skin!!

I really need to make more art of Orfea, she's one of my favorite characters x.x

Work and allergies have been kicking my ass but slowly progress is still being made.

First time doing a character reference! My OC Theo, a divination wizard in DnD. Done for an artshare.

I’ve been so behind on art this month due to work, but i’m starting to get back in the habit of daily work again. Currently working on a ref sheet for my lovely little divination wizard.

Pre-DnD profile studies. There’s something about traditional mediums that are just so pleasant to use

Me: oh this face is looking pretty good.
Me, zooming back out: oh.

Don't be me and forget to zoom out and check what your doing with the rest of the composition....or neglect to warm up before jumping into a drawing as soon as you're home from work.

Me: "It's been a hot minute since I've done anything, let's start with something basic."
Also me: No.

Gods only know how long this one will actually end up taking me, but that's not what matters.

A couple warmups I like to do involve the classic "cube in perspective" and constructing a sphere within a cube. Both really help me to get my mind thinking about space and perspective as I'm drawing. And as a beginner, I find it easy to forget those things as I'm drawing.

I haven’t drawn much since artfight, so here’s a quick little sketch to keep the art honmoon strong.

This is too accurate and I don't like it lol
Except that whole "Hates weird people thing," because I don't like the word "weird" and usually the people that are considered "weird" are the people I bond best with.
