[WIP] Lavender 27

"maybe i shouldn't render this so heavily" i say as i slather my pages in textures and overlays and shading

[WIP] Archipelago

MORE MAPS.... I'm really working on that worldbuilding now for the bible.

Warm up 22/04/2017

I can't stop thinking about Dorian all grown up....

[WIP] Lavenderverse World Map

NEW AND IMPROVED.... I'm starting to name counties and think about customs and cultures. At this rate, the concept artbook is turning into the Lavender bible....which might be even better.

Early Access...on time access.

a day late because i suck and late shift at work is hard

[sketchbook] older Dorian / magestaff

Yeah I'm still thinkin bout them mages. Also Dorian in his twenties, probably about time to sprout some antlers.

That outfit looks unreasonably good on him wtf

[WIP] Lavenderverse World Map

This is gonna be a task and a half, since very few of the countries even have names..... but, it's a start! The Archipelago area needs to be much smaller compared to the Continents and Sparrius, and Haven needs to be smaller too I think. Also, lots more islands in the Archipelago.

Looks like I'll be working on cities and names...

[sketchbook] magestaff

I've been thinking of adding the visual of magestaves to laid in lavender - partly to cue how common or uncommon trained mages are in a place, partly because honestly, i just finished the first earthsea book again and i've been thinking about it. Basil tends to use magic through his hands, but he'd earned his staff through prope...

[Illustration] Basil, Mika and Ness

Mika belongs to a dear friend and would get on like a (literal) house on fire with my Basil and Ness. So I scribbled up this as a gift last night for him!

Hi-Res without writing is attached.

Early Access - or it was meant to be. Sorry it's a day late this time, I am exhausted and unwell.

[Commission] centaur

Finally done! I'm really pleased with how this turned out, and it's been approved by the client as well. I've missed drawing centaurs.

[WIP] commission

sometimes colours are an absolute pain to get right, other times it comes so easy! I'm super proud of how this is going.

Booties Saga

long-time followers may recognise the booties saga - I add a little scribble of my sona in these green booties every time i do job stuff like interviews

and well, i got hired today! so here's a celebration - hopefully the last of the series!

[WIP] commission

Sent off some lineart to a client today! I'm incredibly proud of that horse body, especially the chest. Just goes to show how far scribbling from references can take you!

Concept arts: background species

Lavender is a diverse and colourful earth, and it's high time I start doing proper species turnarounds.

This kind of thing is more than likely going to make it into my eventual concept artbook.

Warm up 31/03/2017

it's a centaur kind of friday!
