Since I recently posted a picture of my most recently completed sketchbook cover, here's a pic of the sketchbook before that. I'd just started trying watercolors in this sketchbook, and I really wanted to incorporate them into the sketchbook somehow. So I took a page from the book and sketched my design, cut the paper into the shapes I wanted, painted the character in with acrylics, painted the field around them with watercolor, and then added the flowers with acrylics on top.
I really love this one, it makes me happy when I look at it ^^
Another Ms. Paint! I like drawing her :D
Color Palette: Godmother of Iridescence
mumbo design sketches!
I'm playing around with the idea that he's a shapeshifter who tries to look like a regular human, but there's always something off about him
for one thing, mumbo's eyes never reflect light, and they frequently devolve into little dots
and his form is inconsistent, sometimes because he just forgot what he was supposed to look like and made himself a couple inches taller, sometimes because some details slipped away because he was startled, or distracted focusing on something else
"Her gaze penetrated my soul, and though she did not speak…
I could hear her words echoing inside my head, as clear as the waters around me…
… It was beautiful."

reference screenshots :D
Colors: slslo8 from lospec, except lightly modified cause I wanted to add some lighter blues. The palette reminded me of rose with the orange & purples! I want to do more art of her with all her signature colors

(October 2022)
These were from an attempted Inktober that fell flat very fast due to school being a thing, but i love all 6 pieces i made for it so im posting them in batches. The other 3 are more horror-y and need a bunch of content warning tags so i'm posting them separately tomorrow! This is when i discovered how to use traditional lineart with digital coloring, which i also used in this piece (linked) which i'm very proud of!
I started playing Final Fantasy 14 a week ago, here's some scribbles I made of my character Rosliet starting her adventure :D (+ a screenshot of her in game for referene)
Since then she's become a level 30 Arcanist, carbuncle is her best friend
I've had a lot of thoughts about Rosliet since I made her, at some point I want to do a more polished drawing of her and talk more about what I've come up with for her character ^^
I've included an early game screenshot of Rosliet below the readmore, for if anyone wants to know what she looks like in game!
secret life lizzie design work!
I'm thinking of making the lighter blue ribbon things green instead, and I want to make a proper design for her wings, but i like what I've got so far! Especially the spirals ^^
May I intrest you in some up-past-midnight rosaria sketches?
Thinking of starting a full colored illustration of her tomorrow
That is, if I have energy after staying up past midnight today
traditional art walk cycle of my OC, Mint!
progress chatter below the readmore
I wanted to make art move and impulsively decided to do it traditionally. So I did! I have never done this before, this
