Kiernan likes to whittle to keep his mind calm. :)

I haven't been able to get good photos yet, but her foster momma did.

I wasn't quite ready for a new kitty, but when I saw her eyes, I knew I had to try to get her. :) They reminded me a lot of last kitty.

Eden came out of hiding last night to say hello. :)

The pet rescue my kitty came from sent these photos I'd never seen.

She was about 4 months old here. Her eyes were amber before they changed to the green I got her with. They said they remembered how calm and gentle she was, so they definitely remembered my kitty after 13 years...

Have some tasty birthday treats! Thanks for the chance. :)

My orc hunter. I can send screenshots of the character if I win.

*slides my worgen/werewolf onto the pile*

Definitely doesn't need any armor, and I can provide screenshots if I get picked. :) Thanks for the chance!

I *think* the sculpt on the right had to do with Underworld lycans.. something like that, but with some fur. No clue who the sculpt/picture belongs to.

I shove my worgen rogue stand-in for my werewolf fella, Kiernan, at you. :)

My werewolf, Kiernan. He has a WoW worgen stand-in.

Orphaned due to plague, he survives to adulthood just to get bitten by a werewolf on a night he didn't want to be a part of. Finds a way to survive in a world where werewolves are rare and killed upon discovery with help from a few good friends.

I shove the character of James Holden from 'The Expanse' into your timeline. :)

Little Water-Damaged Sketchbook Doodling: Day 2

Followed my skull design. Then wanted to see a shorter muzzle & learned camera angles can do that. I like the short one better. There's still a LOT to tweak. I don't know enough about eye sockets and shapes yet and need to learn!

Got a little 3.5"x5" notebook. It arrived water-damaged, so it has some character.

Little water-damaged 3.5"x5" sketchbook doodling: Day 1 - Doodling from memory

Quickly turned into one of my favorite attempts yet.

Finally had time to doodle. Didn't have references. Just tried to remember shapes. It's not good, and I need to learn how to stop stretching art to the right and up, but I dub this an ugly success simply because I drew again. :)

Scrimshaw class, day 2: We were focusing on shading, so I traced the outline of the art this time rather than free-handing.

Didn't get the ink cleaned off completely, but I ran out of time.

I definitely lack skill, but it looks good in real life at a regular distance.

Went to scrimshaw class today. It was a blast!

Had fun on HeroForge today trying to design my werewolf's head shape. The tools are limited, and the lower jaw/lip didn't turn out quite right, but now I have more reference material than I had before. :)

Doodled while I waited for 2 hours in the clinic waiting room to be told I might have a rare syndrome where my skin might melt off from the antibiotics I just took for 10 days.

So... enjoy my pre-melty-skin birb doodle.

Finally had time to draw again. More of trying to design a werewolf shape I really like. Based on the Underworld lycans, trying to make it different.

My 1st was too long. Found the liquify tool in Procreate & made it shorter. I think I like the shortest muzzle (l) the best, but med (r) is nice too.

My Toren. The name came w/ her and I don't know what it means.

I'm currently having to keep her away from me as much as possible because I just finally got covid after all this time. Home tests were all negative.

She's loud and demanding but is also a very thoughtful kitty.

Feel better!

Played around with digital again on my PC. Tried out a few hands. Left is my attempt to figure out werewolf hands, right is just my hand while trying out how to make things look dimensional.

I wanted to learn how worgen head shapes worked. My 1st attempt and my 2nd. The pupil placement on the 2nd still bothers me, but I learned a LOT from this.

April 2, 2019:

Got the itch to draw my WoW worgen when the power went out. Most of my previous drawing had been a tiny bit of perspective stuff in high school, so I tried to work w/ what I kinda knew. 1st pic: pencil. 2nd pic: my first attempt at digital over pencil. Had no clue what I was doing.

2016: Sept-Oct

Hadn't drawn in many, many years. I suddenly wanted to design a dragon tattoo based on a WoW azure drake. It was going to be UV ink, and it was going to be nifty.

Never got the tattoo, but I had fun remembering how a pencil worked.

These were scribbled 2 different nights at work.
