Self-taught artist - Never too late to express your creativity. I plan to occasionally share what I draw here. Also, I can apparently draw furry art passably well. Didn't see that coming.

No real posting schedule yet, still feeling things out.
"Let's add a glow effect" i say. "Surely I won't oversaturate the image", I add, foolishly.

Then I kept going.

Think i'm going to tone down the brightness level a bit on the backgrounds going forward, but overall? Not unhappy with how this turned out.

#furry #furryart #art #digitalart I'm not sure what tags to use... But what I AM sure of is that i'm getting better digitally, and I really like how this turned out! Going to call the next few images i post part of the "very basic background with a distracting color smear behind it" series :P

I'm making an effort to do digital art and make use of this tablet. After SO MANY failed attempts, I think I'm getting the hang of it, and here's my first piece that I'm happy with. #art #furry #furryart - turns out, a good tablet can make all the difference, although Krita is a pain in my neck :)

Getting real close to needing to NSFW tag this, but not quite. :) Alcohol markers, paint pens, and oil pencils on sketch paper scanned by an EPSON 3-in-1 that does it's best :) #furry #furryart #art

Enjoy this picture of a legally distinct smart phone attached to a background of furry art.

#furry #furryart #art - my orange alcohol marker was dying, i'm sure you can tell. Overall though? Turned out well, I think. Alcohol markers primarily on double-sided sketch paper. ( #Ohuhu double-sided sketch paper is magical and I love it)

is it odd that I'm almost as proud of the stupid boat picture on the wall as I am with the rest of it? Yes, yes it is, but the point still stands. Alcohol markers, some oil pencil work, scanned with a crappy printer as usual :) #art #furry #furryart

This is a study in how paint pens can fix up some very major mistakes so long as you're willing to use a LOT of it to re-cover the entire background. The physical media equivalent of CTRL+Z No, i'm not jealous of digital artists #furry #art #furryart

Haven't posted in a while, built up a little backlog to share at least. Tried out new paint pens - not too bad, once I got used to them, and i'll mix them in with other works later on too #art #furry #furryart

Oh hey. My posting schedule basically... doesn't exist, i'm taking it easy and not stressing myself out :) Anyway, here's another that I completed; Lola "Scar" Durant, try not to focus too much on the hands (AI 'aint got nothing on how bad *I* can draw hands!) and enjoy :)

What a journey this has been. I might work a bit more on the lighting (I layer colored pencil over marker for accents and highlights), but otherwise, I'm happy with how this turned out. No notes, i'm just pleased, I even have spare characters in the post!

"Charlie" Ward, a freelance reporter out for the truth and revenge for the death her sister. My challenge here was to design a character that looks enough different from my other one to be visually distinct, which... i'm working on :) Still bad at backgrounds, didn't try :D

Didn't post yesterday, so here's a rough draft in the interim. Rough draft, not even lined yet. Will it be good? Who knows! But it will certainly look different. The best part about my 'style' is that it bears only a passing resemblance to the starting piece.

Vivienne Grey, a former actress of the stage, resentful of the new media and film, turned to crime to maintain the lifestyle she was accustomed to. Why did I make a mouse my femme fatale? Because nobody stopped me :) Also I am never drawing lace again, my hands hurt

No art today while I relax my hands and build up my backlog a bit, but while I don't have a lot of people following, I just wanted to say thank you to those who are; I wasn't expecting much when I joined, so to get any likes is amazing. Next goal: Double-digits :)

I decided to re-draw Penny Lowell; the first was too severe and my vision was more carefree than that. I'm not unhappy with it, and this is slightly more risqué still SFW, I know), and not as NOIR, but I am so much happier with how this came out. So... bonus art!

I finally came up with a name for my fox gumshoe. Evelyn Sinclair is a P.I. one drink below minimum. She runs the Lantern Case Agency, because even in the most cynical heart is a desire to keep the light lit for those in need. #art #furry #furryart #noir #worldbuilding

And here is the finished piece from yesterday - I decided to keep this monochrome because A.) It fits the aesthetic, and B.) I didn't trust myself not to mess it up when I was perfectly happy with how it looks right now :) There's a lesson here that I'm sure I won't learn.

Alina Harris, pseudonym Raven Winter, is a vigilante whose sense of justice starts with her claws, and ends with a muffled scream. Man it's hard to fit a message hashtags into these thi-

Rough draft, was going well so I hope it finishes as good as it started! #art #worldbuilding #furry #furryart

It's time for a new character apparently NOIR-inspired city of mine, where danger is just one drink and hangover away. Meet Penny Lowell, a waitress at The Drunken Owl, a smokey dive with class and danger in equal measure. Still practicing backgrounds too!

No art, but I've got several pieces in progress. Today, it's worldbuilding: My style is clearly leaning towards a comic NOIR style. I'm workshopping some simple names, characters, and locations, but I absolutely want to avoid using animal puns in the names!

Drew this almost entirely without reference during Thanksgiving before dinner, only having to get some help with the hand position, so i'm happy it came out as well as it did just winging it :)

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving - or a quiet day, at least! I think I'm going to lower my posting schedule to once or twice a week for images to avoid burnout,and try to post questions / thoughts between. Here's a couple WIPs for now though that I hope to color in

#art #furry #draft #wip

And completed! Aside from not knowing exactly what to do with the ears (and thus ignoring it, I might revisit it later but didn't want my indecision to paralyze me), I really like how this turned out as a bust shot.

Slowing down so I don't burn out, so instead of only posting 'complete' images (not counting ones I go back on to add details to) I'm going to do WIPs as well to keep from being overwhelmed. After the rough draft, I do the linework, then this heavy shading before adding color.

I get around the problem of figuring out where a light source is coming from largely by making it up as I go and hoping nobody notices. :)

Finished this yesterday, and I think I can hear my black markers crying. (Keep forgetting hashtags, wish I could just edit)
