some quick life drawings, 15 min each, except the top right which was 30min
charcoal on grey card paper
A mug design as my grandmother's christmas present! Based on Greek iconography. My first go at using Krita, which is an ace opensource painting program like wow (although I used it in conjunction with Gimp for some adjustments)
some more recent life drawings in charcoal (feat a little chalk)
More draw-y things for Artemis the 13-yr-old trans-girl freedom flyer - we got rid of the term pirate cause she doesn't actually steal things. She's an outlaw tho, and the government kidnapped her parents and she's on a recue mission to get them back! Most of the crew are part of a minority or two, largely bc we all agreed that representation is important in general, but also bc I have friends who are v precious to me and I wanted to give them some??? sort of representation, as a personal thing. I'll prob post something of those characters too.
The airships, clockwise from top-left (to-scale comparison). In this world, there's a tradition of making everything that flies, ie the major ships and islands, as pretty as possible, "so that on the day it falls, it will be a beautiful wreckage":
her parents' vehicle before they get kidnapped, built for speed and carrying essential supplies; copper-coloured support structure to allude to aid, but a more subtle balloon and ship colour to avoid too much attention.
a government vehicle, built for power+to impress, with vague Ancient Egyptian warship references, with a dark colour balloon bc it's a sign of wealth that they can afford so much dye, to stand out against the gold-plated support, and cause you know, general dictatorship references;
a merchant vessel: murky-yellow balloon bc who has money to bleach/dye that much fabric, not merchants anyway, basic steel support.
Teenie Tiny airship of the Artemis' crew. Blue to vaaaaguely blend in with the sky and generally avoid detection. Bit old-fashioned.
the model sheet is what I drew initially as a reference for the model but have since drawn over + coloured
