Gonna be posting my stuff here, mostly sketches and WIPS cuz I take forever to finish full illusts. I'm lazy af, I can't guarantee regular updates but I'm working towards being more productive so I'll try to be active as much as I can.


Imma start this thread with these two GOATS, feel like my level's dipped since upgrading to a tablet (Huion RTP-700) :/

WIP, meant to be for the Multiverse Vistas contest but started too late and couldn't finish. Not that it matters tho since my aim was to see how I measure up to the winners and I'm not measuring jack with this. Still gonna finish it though but Imma give it the proper amount of time to cook.

Currently doing this color wheel thing on Twitter.


Feel free to chime in your choices since I'm not getting much engagement (idk how to twitter). Just not anything Disney, for some reason I keep getting them :(

Coloring practice, original by Rukana taken from the Copic website. Wasn't feeling my colors lately, I mean it looks cool but idk feels jank, recently learned about color ratios so I tried with this in mind. Works swimmingly, though I did go with a more convenient color scheme. Still its something atleast so I'm no longer going in blind. Hmm, also noticed I'm still too aggro on my lines, gotta work on that too. This works much better.

ooooooh kitty cat. It's also got some really smooth animation.

The stick fight looks epic. Might need an epilepsy warning though.

Genshin Impact! Damn gacha games been sucking up all my free time lol


Yeah these marker pens are fun! Wanted to try them since I saw you can also use them like watercolor, which fits what I'm looking for.

Took a little time off since the recent Genshin banner was ending and needed to clutch for Wokomi and C6 Wanfei, now that I'm done with that let's get back to work! This time used mixed media paper, I can actually blend shit now and doesnt bleed all over the place. Used one of the free drawings on Copic's website for the lineart.

3rd attempt, now on watercolor paper. Seems to be better, though idk if its the paper or just more experience using the thing. Anyway damn I’m really liking these, ordered a cheapo set since I need more colors. Shouldn’t be too bad since they’re both water-based. Original from the Copic website.

Some exercise to prevent muscle atrophy. Practicing some new stuff I learned, mostly animating with keyframes and in-betweens, turns out this method is the normal one and not straight-ahead which I've been doing since day 1, yeah I'm just a hipster like that. This does seem a more logical approach, I can already see the timings and shit without actually animating the whole sequence, making for easier and cleaner edits. Man I'm such a dumb dumb.

Less gooo its animation season!! Obv I wont be animating jack with my main style so I did a ref sheet with a simpler design. She also has a glove now cuz its cool.


Unfortunately its almost September now so I'll have to postpone the remake for now. Will stick to rough sequences in the meantime and more anatomy grinding since that's what local studios are looking for. Also need to brush up on 3D as a backup, haven't really touched that since I only got a usable PC recently.
