Sketches- February 2020

Here's this months stash!

I'm not sure what's going on with the tags recently- it seems to be not filtering correctly, despite everything being quite neatly categorised, and I'm sorry if that makes things difficult to navigate :S, I'm hoping its a patreon problem that'll fix itself!

Charity Case Ch5:Pg13 process & high res

I feel like you could pull the background pallette from a sweets section :P, I always seem to default to softer pastels!

Charity Case Ch5:Pg13

gettin real wibbly up in here

Charity Case Ch5:Pg12 process & high res

At least a little bit inspired by whisper of the heart :P

Charity Case Ch5:Pg12

Alex actually pre-dates the whole cast of charity case ;P they're an old OC I never used much! They're an impressionistic fine artist in their free time- and boss lets them put up art shows in the shop sometimes.

Charity Case Ch5:Pg11 process & high res

Here I'm actually using a verse I didn't use the first time around!

Charity Case Ch5:Pg11

getting into those wacky colours again ;)

thanks for the patience last week!

Hermit & Hiker- Ink experiments 2 & test page

I decided the finick-ey ness of screentones wasn't worth the hassle, I couldn't get the effect I wanted with them! I realised I could add noise to a regular grey to give it some texture, and that's what the last test page is!

Rock Tier- OC Meme

I've crossed some out that I don't like, but feel free to ask any OC any question! As always I can't do all of them, but I'll try choose a selection and work from them! (like I won't just draw them answering the questions, that wouldn't be very spicy...)

Depending on how it goes, I might ke...

Comic process update

Hiya! Just a post to let you know that I'm going to change the way I produce pages- recently I've been doing two pages from scratch every week, but I think it's affecting my pacing  negatively! I'm going to start sketching pages in batches, to try and get them to flow better, instead of star...

Hermit & Hiker- Val's house concepts 3 & ink experiments

I think I'm going to settle on the nib style of the second to last page, with the forest! As much as I love the brushier ink, it really bothers me how much detail I lose and how unpredictable it is (see the half finished kitchen inks haha) I like the fineness of the nib, and also it's a lot less ...

Charity Case Ch5:Pg10 process & high res

I really love drawing the flow of music, its so fun!

Charity Case Ch5:Pg10

It took us years but finally, a band!

Charity Case Ch5:Pg9 process & high res

I hope you're all ready for some lumpy instruments :P

Charity Case Ch5:Pg9

finally!

February Poll

I want to do a more finished painting of a character this month- which means it'll be shared publicly, but I thought I'd give you all the chance to vote for who you want to see!

Hermit & Hiker- Vals house concepts 2

Bedroom and library done, on to the living room/kitchen :'). It's such a ridiculous amount of stuff to plan, but at least once its done, its done.

Charity Case Ch5:Pg8 process & high res

I accidentally put Roman in the one place he'd blend into the background, hence the colour outline :S!

I'm also using a 3D model for the drums...which helps so so much.

Charity Case Ch5:Pg8

I wish I had a cosy pillow and blanket nook tbh.

Charity Case Ch5:Pg7 process & high res

I actually wish I had put more detail into the room design, blank walls are getting pretty dull!

Charity Case Ch5:Pg7

(I have no idea how music works aaa)

Howl's Moving Castle screencap redraw

I ended up going back in at the end and redoing some of Sophies face with a bigger brush, because she felt too detailed in comparison to the rest.
I didn't colour pick any of this, which is why it's so much brighter! And obviously my focus on detail is super loose, mostly I just wanted to do s...

Sketches- January 2020

A lot of my time has gone into the hermit and hiker planning and concepting this month, along with commissions, so it's a small one! (along with me releasing more stuff publicly)

Rock Tier Sketches- January 2020

A surprising amount this month, considering how busy I've been!

[Hello from 2023, the rest of the images are in the pdf's! I've gone through and added everything I have into the monthly posts, but it's getting pretty spotty and awkward to find files, so I'm stopping here!]<...

Charity Case Ch5:Pg6 process & high res

It's nice getting familiar enough with the characters that the sketches can be so loose. At first it felt like if I didn't have a really detailed sketch I'd get the likeness wrong. (then again, I did mess up the sleeve continuity, so maybe I SHOULD have sketched better)
