Began learning to draw in July 2024. Hoping to share progress, projects, or whatever shitposts I find are amusing.
I also have fun with ancient history, laughing about conspiracy theories, and other topics that concern my loved ones.

Monster Manual Entry #57
Gold Dragon

The wings remind me of fins as much as wings. It's a very smooth feeling.
It's 1 part fun, 2 parts a b*tch to draw.

"The dragon has large, smooth, twin horns that sweep back from its nose and brow. Twin frills adorn its long neck, and whiskers around its mouth look like the barbels of a catfish. It's saillike wings start at its shoulders and race down to the tip of its tail. The dragon smells of saffron and incense, and its scales glisten like polished gold."

Calling this one finished!

Thank you to everyone who donated to @porpoiseorg.bsky.social to help us make this!

If you're learning about the #Vaquita for the first time, head over to this link and learn more about this critically endangered porpoise!

Monster Manual Entry #57
Black Dragon

You ever had an idea that escalates beyond what's reasonable? Yeah, this is one of those.

#art #drawing #black #dragon #dnd #ttrpg #dndart #ttrpgart #swamp #wizard #witch #artsky
"The dragon's head looks decidedly like a skull thanks to its deep-socketed eyes and wide, flat nasal opening. It has forward-curving horns and a spinal crest that peaks just behind the head and tapers off about three quarters of the way down the neck. An acidic smell surrounds the dragon, whose scales are mostly dull ebony and dark gray."

Somehow I did an entire Inktober! My takeaways are:
1. Deadlines make for good discipline and bring out results that wouldn't happen otherwise.
2. Having to create something for presentation everyday really burns me out for any drawing afterwards.

Overall it was worthwhile.

I'm a full grown man and I've never even drawn a Goku. This has now been rectified

Due to the stomach issue, quality will drastically drop because keeping calm is just a challenge at this point. I dunno if I can finish this even

Decided to retry a Monster Manual Entry. The outline and silhouette are on point. Wish I had more time to think about hatching, but I've seen comics shade and color a similar way 🤷

Inktober Day 21- Naruto

Not really a fan, but I should learn how to draw popular things. I actually gave the show around 200 episodes back in high school. No one can say I didn't try

It's been a while since I've drawn from life. It should surprise no one that I have plenty of old, pretentious looking books lying around.
