After I drew Twilight and posted, I had the bug to draw Rarity, then I drew Applejack... then it got too late for me to draw the rest so, here's at least three of em. Plus a lil side of Purple Girlfriends because even after all of these years, I still find myself very fond of the pairing.
Been a long whil...

I dunno what hit me, but I was struck with the sudden urge to draw MLP, so who better to draw than my favorite character of all time from the show?? :)

Adagio (siren monster): Mm. Curious little thing. You don't cower before your end?

Another landscape sketch! Left is the ref image, right is my speedpaint. :)
This one was an exercise of trying to keep the energy of the image without trying to be super realistic. In the end I figured out a pretty neat way of painting trees is from dark to light; painting the dark silhouette of the shapes I wante...

I've shied away from posting commissions on my Patreon since I wanted it to be mainly focused on my own personal projects, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to show off what I'm currently workin' on as freebies! :>

A very small preview of the start of what I'm hoping is my next original project!
I love Feathers and Flowers, but I've long decided to try making that something of a novel/written work (with some art thrown in every now and then), and truth be told I'm excited for it but there's still a part of me that screams...

I haven't forgotten this lil story! :)
I had to take an extensive break from creating fanart for my own wellbeing (mainly cuz I placed way too much pressure on myself to create something for social media more than for my personal enjoyment), and I won't lie there's a lot of fanart and headcanons I likely won't return to...

Summary: Ishmael finally reunites with his long estranged daughter, and is given a gift he doesn't deserve.
More concept work for Feathers and Flowers, this time of the rough sketch for Kaela's design exploration! I did a lot of back and forth with what I wanted to do with her design, especially to try and make her familiar to her original design while giving her new elements. Some of the recent sketches I did of her just didn't
Rough sketch for the exploration page of Mal! With me being in the throws of what's basically the concept stage, I find I really need some art that shows off the new designs/tweaked designs of the characters. That, and I think I just need to draw them for the sake of it, because I can't tell you how RUSTY I ...

Some concept art for Feathers and Flowers!
A quick comparison of Mal (the big dark one) vs Evangeline (smol light one); it's half because I wanted to show the difference between them in their "monster forms", and half because I needed a visual base to work off of when conceptualizing their respective races.
Mal is...

Some headshots I did for two of our players in the campaign I'm in with the homies! The first is of Daeva, our tanky paladin. The second is of our very clever, rogue-ish bard, Ura.
The dialogue in each has been something the character's actually said in the campaign at least once. Daeva has never experienced a birthday ...

Mockup and rough design for my monthly newsletters!
I have the idea that they'll be season themed (winter, fall, spring, summer), so while the month and text will change the splash art behind it won't until a new season hits. That way I get unique looking newsletters without having to work too hard to make every 2024-01-11 02:34:48 +0000 UTC View Post
First piece of 2024! Left is the ref image, right is my sketchpaint. :)

Some super quick sketches I did for Kaela in the updated version of Feathers and Flowers! I'm still exploring her look a bit, particularly her build since she's no longer just the small one of the group. I'm leaning toward "soft-faced woman with guns of steel"; probably a little softened overall due to the slight...

One of my ambitions for 2024 is to update my Patreon with some TLC and a fresh coat of paint. One such thing is to lock in a more central theme for promo art and such, and I LOVE monsters and lore and food. So that's what I'm gonna make!

With the year slowly but surely coming to an end, I usually take the couple of weeks it takes to get to Jan 1st to reflect on how the year as a whole turned out.

I'm pretty sure I've never actually shown these before, so here they are now! Earlier in the year I had the idea to create packs of random designs for anyone to be able to color and use however they wanted. This was my first attempt at that, but I ended up not lining them under the notion that they weren't good enough to just...

A whole bunch of pen sketches I did in my sketchbook while revisiting Mal's design! The leading headshot sketch is the direction I ended up going with for the design moving forward, but I did a whole assload of roughs and variations to find the look I wanted for her.

Welp. I'm back on my bullshit. ;w;
Feathers and Flowers got a setting/story overhaul recently! Most of the main story beats remain basically the same, but the characters are getting more focus than the overarching plot is, so this revision is moreso about making the characters the priority and not the main plot stuff go...
